    Pac and Floyd not fighting is because of Arum not because of Floyd and Manny. No fighter is about health first when they are a boxer. As a matter of fact any athlete, in any sport has health risks.

    If you want to troll the forums and act like guys who have spent their entire lives boxing are afraid to step in a ring go ahead.

    I don't pay for the majority of these. Floyd, Manny, and Bob have already stiffed us for years and are unlikely to make the fight happen. If they give us good "consolation" bouts, then I am usually willing to pay. Mayweather against Mosley, Cotto, Canelo were all decent to good matchups. Same with Pacquiao-Marquez (even though most people didn't think it would be going into the 3rd fight). I think Pacquiao-Bradley 2 will be interesting and competitive, if not exciting.

    But fights like Mayweather against Guerrero & Maidana? Manny against Mosley? I will stream it or catch the replay.

    I won't enable Floyd's cherry-picking ways by ordering this Maidana fight, although it won't matter anyway as I am sure it will do solid numbers.

    Garbage fight

    if Mayweather really cares about money more than anything else, why doesn't he get someone to bet about $50m on him losing, let Maidana slug him with a right hand, drop to the canvas and **** off to retirement with more money than he could make in 100 fights

    Not really, but seriously, this fight is garbage. Almost as garbage as Mayweather-Khan will be in September

    So if Pac were to fight Floyd. GBP would have control of the money. Doesn't that take Arum out of the picture and render Maywethers "I'm not fighting you because of who your promoter is" excuse irrelevant?

    You dont get the point, Mayweather discredits Pac how he fights slow and predictable fighters and look at what Mayweather is doing in his last few fights. Even Guerrero after beating Berto gets a shot at Mayweather and then now Maidana beats a over hyped Broner. Mayweather knows when to fight his opponents, "young N hungry champion like Ortiz who also beat over hyped Berto.

    Arum has to sign off on the fight though, Arum won't sign off on the fight because he won't make any money off of it. Which is why Pac needs to leave Arum to make the fight.

    Isn't boxing made up of numerous styles? Pac has never fought slow/flat footed fighters?:huh

    Anyone can nitpick a fighters resume. Why didn't you bring up Pac fighting Rios after a loss? Rios is a punching bag, why didn't you mention Pac fighting Cotto after 2 tough fights with Margarito and Clottey? Why not mention fighting Margarito after a suspension. Why not mention fighting Mosley after the Mayweather loss and Mora draws? :yikes
