    Look I usually agree with you but why MArch 13?? Thats four months in between fights for PAC who has taken on a fighter Flkoyd wont even consider. Let them fight when they are ready so there are no excuses.

    Floyd if its true is trying to catch a fight w/o the proper training for PAC. Thats suspicious right there.

    The Holidays are coming, Pac is probably not in shape to train til mid January, he needs a full 3 months to train.

    Look PAC is the greater fighter, Floyd or anyone else should wait.

    Now Floyd is trying to rush PAC into fighting knowing that there isnt enough time unless people cant ****in add days.

    This just shows you how much Team Pacquiao respects Mayweather, that they need all the time they can get to prepare for him. This fight will happen, just not in March.

    Look easy or not, fighters need to put in training hours. But I can see where Roach is coming from PACs greatness is undoubtable. Boxing purists even have him Top 15 ATG. His legacys in place. But Floyd is a good fighter so Roachs exagerrating a bit.

    When these two fight, one is in danger of losing his whole legacy and become a butt of jokes in boxing forums and we know who it is.

    Roach said eight weeks is the proper time for training, he said anything more is to much and anything less is not enough.

    Oh by the way ,I like how you're trying to blame Floyd for rushing Pac:lol99.:rofl WTF?:huh. Everything that goes wrong in boxing is Floyd's fault right?:lol:

    Mayweather's legacy isn't going anywhere. As you said, Pac is near the top of the ATG list. If Mayweather loses to him wheres the shame in that?

    Besides, of the two guys you mentioned, one has signed for the fight and one hasn't. If Pac needs more time to recover, and more time to train, then great. I want him to be 100% if the fight happens. But Roach, along with many Pac fans on this site, talk out of both sides of their mouth when they make it look like Mayweather is a walkover or Cotto was an easy fight in one sentence and then claim that Pac took a beating from Cotto and needs extra time to train for Mayweather in the next.

    A little consistency would be nice.

    Also, I do not believe that the fight will happen if Pac wins his seat in the elections in May. Politics isn't the sort of career that you can take a 3 month break from to train for a fight. If it does happen he certainly won't be at 100% while he's a full time politician and a part time fighter.

    Theres nothing wrong with boxing, waiting a couple of months is not wrong with boxing. PAC may only need 1 months training for arguments sake but its when he wants to start. MAybe he wants to ****in rest and have a couple of months off. Holy crap, 4 months between big mega fights? I dont think thats been done in the last 20 years.

    Floyds got his two years rest, he should understand. Hed better be ready because he will fall off the 200 ATG list in less than a year from now.

    PAC will sign, Roach is a ****** at times. But Arum the bloodsucking promoter that he is would serve a contract to a fighter laying down in the hospital. If the fights going to happen, do it the proper way, when one or both combatants are ready.

    If Pacquiao knew he had a busted eardrum why would he want the fight as soon as March 13? Team Pac wanted that date not Mayweather. Mayweather agreed and now they're saying it's too soon? So what happened?

    Mayweather fought Castillo with a torn rotator cup so whats the problem.

    Nah im just playing. If Pac is injured then he should heal.

    But expect people to play devil advocate because they know that if the shoe was on the other foot an this was all Mayweather then it would be called ducking.

    This is the standards that PBF haters created.

    Pacquiao just moved up in weight to fight Cotto, and now he's expected to fight Mayweather less than 4 months later. Give the mutha****a a break. 8 weeks might be enough time to train for a mega fight if a fighter is relaxed and his batteries are fully recharged.
