    I was WRONG technically. I made a single objective thread about Floyd. That's 1 out of what a dozen threads in 3 years?

    And you know what I meant, I've never made a nuthugging thread about Floyd or an inflammatory thread against Pac (that I remember). Replying to troll posts, that's a whole other matter ....

    I think Floyd just doesn't have the drive and energy he had as he approaches 40. This a common problem with men as they get older. He should seek testosterone replacement therapy.

    You didn't read the post or you didn't understand it. Here's how I see it, Arum wants the fight now because it's cashout time, That so called 25% is only the tip of the money iceberg. The fact that he is the mandatory strengthens Arums bargaining hand on everything else. He don't give a dam about the 25%. It's all the other revenues that he wants a big slice of. Pac has ran out of hype fights. He can't stand another loss and he got Bradley on one side and Prov on the other. It don't look good. Floyd is the only option for big money for an ass whoopin. Floyd got other plans for Pac and for one, he intensely dislikes Arum and sees this as another example of Arum trying to control **** and get paid. Floyd don't bite on bull****, I thought you knew. That's why he got the f uck away from Arum in the first place.

    Check this out, Floyd is gonna do it his way. He's done in 2015. That's two years and four fights already paid for. What the hell can the belt do for him that he can't do for himself. Now, if Arum and Pac wants the fight, they need to get in line and wait their turn like good boys cause Floyd is the boss of him. Like I said before, this ain't about that bottom line bull**** of being scared. It's about control. Now I got one word for you, Brains....get some.

    *******s are so dense.

    Pacquiao is fighting in APRIL per BOB. Mayweather is fighting in May and that was known before the Rios fight. Why do you guys keep bringing up Khan/Maidana when Top Rank took Manny out as a possible opponent for May?

    The fight will happen September or later.

    Everyone crying about seeing Floyd fight Manny. Personally, I think he destroys Manny. I would be content watching him fight Bradley.

    what are you quoting me for ??? I was just making a comment about the incorrect maths with the payment percentages.....did not comment on mayweather or pacs position with regards to fighting each other....

    for the record I completely agree Floyd should step up

    If the fight happens, after Floyd wins everyone will say how it was a mismatch,Floyd is too big,Manny had too many hard fights,anything you can think of.
    I wish the fight would happen so you all can pick a different guy to beat Floyd in your wet dreams!!!

    at first glance, floyd looks to be favorite but upon closer inspection, the style match up favors pac just because pac is southpaw.

    floyd's shoulder roll wont work so hed be doing high guard mostly on defense but his body is exposed.

    and he will need to move alot for 12rounds which i dont think he can do at this stage of his career and him a little top heavy (of course he is on trt under usada, so anything is possible).

    his jab is less effective. 19pct on guerrero, 49 (or 39) on canelo. here is another jab stat: bradley on pac 11pct, on marquez 24pct. yeah it is compubox, but you can clearly see a pattern there. watch floyd against southpaws or even toney.

    floyd would have to rely more to his right hand (left hook is another option but he throws it wide), which gives more chances for pac to land something big.

    so between pac's volume punching and floyd's potshotting offense, id favor pac.

    floyd fights differently against southpaws and that difference favors pac because he is used to fighting ortho his whole career.

    floyd is a smart businessman. he wont put all his eggs in one basket esp if pac has a really good chance stealing that basket.
