    That's why, when analysing the whole three years of this bullcrap, I pin most of the blame on Floyd. All three of the main roadblocks (testing, vacations and purse) that have prevented/delayed the fight from taking place, have come from one side. All along, 50-50 was fine and Floyd made it clear that the only issue was random teating, and that if Pacquiao accepted it, the fight would be made without problem. Now that Pacquiao's accepted the testing, he all of sudden changes his mind on the split? Even after Pacquiao's just out-peformed him at the box-office?

    He's an awkward character deal with. He really is.

    The guys fabricated and repetitive answers make him seem like a much greater idiot than he really is. He's well spoken and gives good answers as long as they suit him.

    So what was Floyd's real motive when he asked for those tests? All those facebook and tweeter stuff...

    This is proof beyond doubt that Floyd is scared of Pac, in the sense of either losing or taking too much punishment. Piece it up together, he jumped on the OSDT bandwagon why? Simple, because he thought this man was doing so much damage its unreal, must be something illegal. Floyd Snr said he feared for his son's life. Now add his references to Ali, where again his "health" was put on the line for the sake of the fans, something he's not willing to do.

    Obviously his health is much more at risk against Pac than Cotto. he also says fan's dont pay his bills and he knows he will lose his marketability if he loses hence why the reward must be much greater if he is to take such a big risk, ie 100% revenue.

    Now his fans on the other hand would have you believe this is a very easy fight for him. lol.

    Both are taking big risks taking each other, difference is Floyd is all about not taking punishment and he thinks he might take some from Pac, Pac dont mind getting punished. Floyd also wants to keep that 0, Pac has already lost.

    FLOYD, ROGER, and ****ING SR. all know what this **** means: STYLES MAKE FIGHTS.

    Floyd would likely beat Pac (decision), but he would absolutely have to go through hell to do it.

    :deal

    Yep & it's game over:yep

    That interview once & for all puts to bed any notion of Floyd getting in the ring with Pacquiao. Team mayweather have plotted this path to the top & will stay there on the own terms & with the full blessing of HBO & it's HBO who sanctioned this route & will continue to do so as long as the gullible keep buying into this myth of Mayweather being the undefeated best. Sign o' the times & only if Mayweathers HBO fights were boycotted would you get any heat coming down on mayweather to get in the ring with Pacquiao........

    But then again Floyds always said he'll retire from boxing & boxing won't retire him & he's soon as walk away again into another faux retirement & would only re-emerge once that clear & present danger in pacquiao has retired & gone full-time politico......

    Also i think Arum has said to pacquiao "Look! You've bigger fish to fry than Mayweather!!! You've got a bigger career in the future outside of boxing & if it went tits up in the ring against Floyd it may damage your possible presidention future opportunities. But we all know that Pacquiao would fight King Kong on stillts if he had too but what with Mayweathers statements in that interview only the deaf dumb & blind still believe that Floyd has'nt pulled the biggest duck in boxing history & floyd don't give a flying ****:deal

    Man oh man. Floyd looks so bad in this interview. Even though he remains composed, he still doesn't have the mental capacity to understand how bad he looks with his answers.

    Floyd keeps 100% of the PPV revenue regardless of the opponent? That must mean Cotto is getting a great guarantee as he brings a very large number of PPV viewers to the table.

    Floyd Mayweather Jr. appeared on Thursday's edition of Costas Tonight, during which the conversation with host Bob Costas covered a range of topics.

    Mayweather described his father as being "jealous" of his uncle and trainer, Roger Mayweather, addressed his perceived racial comments regarding NBA guard Jeremy Lin of the New York Knicks, and claimed it was he, not his pound-for-pound rival, Manny Pacquiao, who made the most recent attempt to make their potential megabout a reality.

    Click here for the full interview.

    "If the fight happens, it do. Do I want the fight to happen? Absolutely. But if it don't, so be it," said Mayweather, whom Costas pressed about Pacquiao, and wondered how the failure to make the fight reflected on him compared to past champions.

    "I basically see what you're getting to. Larry Holmes lived the way that he lived. He's lost to who he has lost to. Sugar Ray Robinson has lost to who he has lost to. But I'm the game to win, not just in the ring, but outside of the ring. And my health is more important to anything."

    At one point, Costas asked Mayweather "are you implying that you have something to fear from Pacquiao?"

    "I don't fear no man," replied Mayweather. "I don't fear nothing. If you are insinuating that I'm a scared fighter, then why would people want to even watch a scared fighter?"

    He added that he thought Pacquiao lost his last fight, November's disputed majority decision victory in defense of his WBO welterweight belt against RING lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez, against whom Pacquiao had battled through a draw and a split-decision win previously.

    Mayweather (42-0, 26 knockouts) also said he has no fear of losing to WBA junior middleweight beltholder Miguel Cotto (37-2, 30 KOs), against whom he will pursue his eighth title belt over five weight classes on May 5 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

    Near the end of the interview, Costas posted Mayweather's Twitter comment about Lin, which implied that it was Lin's Asian heritage as much as his play that was catching the world by storm, drawing more attention to him when African Americans in the league are doing the same thing.

    "It's okay for Cuba to root for Cubans, Puerto Ricans to root for Puerto Ricans," said Mayweather. "But if I speak on certain situations, then he's racist."

    Mayweather also spoke about the infamous obscenity-laced altercation with his father and one-time trainer, Floyd Mayweather Sr., whose boxing career Floyd Jr. denigrated as being made up of victories primarily over "cab drivers."

    "I think that it's just jealousy on my father. I'm everything in the sport of boxing that he wasn't. I think that by now, he expected me to have taken a loss without him," said Mayweather, who is trained by his uncle, Roger Mayweather.
