    It's just not Spence or Crawford but pretty much anyone in the sport at 140-147 would rather fight him than anyone else at those weights and that's a problem. They know they will more than likely get the biggest payday by fighting him. So he'll toss potential names around with no intentions of fighting them but in the meantime waste their time which prevents other fights from happening because they're sitting on the shelf. That's why I want him gone. Boxing needs new superstars he has had his time.

    Your hatred for Pac knows no bounds.

    Pac signed the contract for the Crawford fight, but he has no intention of fighting him?

    I don't hate Pac he has had his time move on. He's getting in the way he's not beating Crawford or Spence. Hell I think Ortiz and Ennis beat him as well. He's old and needs to sit down. Rematch Thurman or Horn and call it a day.

    That fake fight didn't even have proper backing stop!

    Man I was really hoping Pac would fight Crawford, stylistically i think Spence is a much harder fight.

    Pac doesn't like bigger guys that fight in a really rough manner like Margarito or Horn, Spence is just as big, but rougher and overall much better and more athletic.

    I'm going to go through this one last time... then we can just move on

    I said this fight wasn't worth it, Pac is old, Spence Jr batters him, it's basically pointless.

    (Funnily enough you made the exact same claim about Pacquaios age in a post later on, you seem to have forgotten, and even mentioned the fact about his inactivity, which again adds weight to my original claim)

    You disagreed and said it was a "blockbuster"?

    We had some back and forth and I suggested a silly avatar bet, I've done one before and lost, I am good on my word,


    You then said you wanted "REAL MONEY" on it.


    I didn't suggest money, not even a hint of money but I said fine, I'll DM you when the time comes,


    Then you just make up 10-1 odds in your favour, a list of thread demands and also the avatar bet. Even the ridiculous list of signatures was all one way, but you said you'd agree to an avatar.. err thanks.


    What don't you understand how ridiculous you sound, YOU WANTED THE MONEY BET and then demand 10-1 odds.

    Nobody who read that will think that's remotely reasonable or sound, I stand by my claim Spence Jr batters Pacquaio and ou even yourself started making a list of excuses about why Pacquaio would lose ffs.


    Next time, just stick to the avatar bet, it was a silly bet, a joke, would have been a giggle either way but you just took it too far.


    IF YOU WANT A STRAIGHT BET, MAN TO MAN, EVEN MONIES THEN DM ME WHEN THE TIME COMES AND WE WILL DO IT.

    IF NOT THEN JUST LEAVE IT AND STOP TALKING.

    Why do you complicate things?

    You foolishly defined "blockbuster" as a fight that is competitive, which isn't the generally accepted definition. It simple means that it would be a huge fight given Pac's name combined w/ Spence's name. You took an L here (your second of the day after failing to get the missus off).

    Again. If you really believe Pac has no shot, then take the bet and make that easy $250 so you can buy your wife a premium sex toy. But you don't believe what you say. So be a man and just say that you'd like to retract your statement and that you weren't as confident as you thought.

    If I see something as a guarantee, I'll take the bet whatever the odds may be. If Pac was fighting Lomchenko, I'd take the bet w/ a similar line because I actually BELIEVE that there's no way Pac loses.

    Forget the age, forget the inactivity, forget all else that doesn't matter.

    Pac wins, you pay me $2,500.00. Again, I'm coming into this bet w/ a 42 year old inactive horse, so the odds are fair.

    Spence wins, I pay you $250.00.

    Those odd aren't fair my man. Even the bookies will have it much closer than that IF this fight is official. And that's still a big IF with all the rumoured fights for Pacman over the past 3 months or so.

    Tell you what @Pakkuman I'm always keen for a wager so how about this:

    Spence Jr wins you change your avatar to Floyd Mayweather avatar of @N17 choosing, for one year.

    Pacman wins I'll send you $100 USD.

    Deal?

    Yes, but @N17 said the fight was pointless and Pac had no shot of winning. Just testing the man's conviction in his beliefs. No need to rescue N17. He's his own man. Sort of. Half man, anyway, but not cool like a Minotaur.

    When Bernard Hopkins was 43 I don’t remember many, if any people at all were critical of him fighting the undefeated Kelly Pavlik. I don’t recall anyone being critical of him fighting Kovalev, some even favored Hopkins. So what’s the deal with disrespecting a proven winner by saying this fight is pointless? Manny is different than most fighters many of his opponents have faced. They all go in with a game plan and most come out pretty banged up. Thurman was apparently the final nail in Manny’s coffin. That changed as soon as the fight started. I just don’t see why people think this is not worthy. Manny brings it every time win or lose.

    It’s a Philippino dude but I’m starting to think it’s not Pac. Might be an imposter.

    Hopkins' greatest attributes were his ring IQ and timing. Not saying Pac is deficient in those attributes but that's why Hopkins didn't appear to deteriorate much.

    If I had to set odds for Spence - Pac, I'd say something like:

    2/7 Spence
    11/4 Pac

    Reputational bias towards Pac would mean it would become 4/6 - 6/5 or something similar as the fight date drew closer.

    How is Pacquiao getting in the way dumbass? He is the only one actually trying to make a real fight. What’s he getting in the way of, Crawford and Spence making empty threats over Twitter like 2 bitches?

    MONEY

    They're refusing to jeopardise their stock in search of that huge payday because of Pacquiaos mostly nationalist following. Guaranteed dollars. Pac retires, I mean really retires, maybe he can exhibitions and sh it but this stops and they need to fight each other. Why would this be a bad thing? Pac should push actively for these fights or retire because his ghost is ruining the WW division right now.
