It's all very early bull**** talk. This is how megafights happen. Lots of bantering back and forth. Generates interest, etc.. I expect to see the fight get made at 50/50, assuming Pacquiao gets past Cotto.
I find it strange that some say Floyd is ducking Pac. Why would he be afraid? All Pac fans mention is his power never his boxing skills. If Marquez presented him all kinds of problems, what will Floyd do? They keep mentioning the Oscar and Hatton fights, however, neither fights like Floyd. Neither are right hand fighters, therefore, dont have the style matchup problem for Pac. Marquez is a technical fighter just like Floyd however not as good. Floyd is a stylistic nightmare for Pac because of his defense and straight right hand which is a lefties nightmare. Anyway, time will tell.
Here is the problem and its what I have been saying all along. Pac and his nation keep going down this road of "Pac should get more money" when the numbers time and time again show its the other way around. this fight isnt going to happen, and I have said that from the start. The reason that its not going to happen??? One I dont think that Pac will beat Cotto, two team pac arent going to get Floyd to cave on anything, to this point pac has made demands and got them, but Floyd isnt going to get in. If the fight Happens Floyd will get more money, and it will be a REAL welterweight fight. Which to be honest there should be no reason for it not to be, being that for the fight to happen Pac will have had to beat Cotto which would make him a welterweight belt holder and that makes catchweight bull**** a mute point.
Head to head he out sold Pac against the same fighters Hatton Oscar Marquez I don't matter who paid or why....atsch
