    He sure isn't. He was scared of shot Mosley.

    Was moron not is. Pac doesn't want this fight. That is why he is fighting Rot Stank bums.

    Pac can't beat a drug test how can he beat Mayweather?

    i think floyd wants to fight pac at 154 with 10oz gloves, not at 147.

    and that makes him ***** in my eyes.

    No. Arum is scared of FMJ and he protects all of his fighters from him because Arum knows what they will get. Pac is just another in a long line of protected fighters.

    What do you mean I would rather Floyd make more than see the fight? I don't give a **** how much either guy makes, but it doesn't change the fact that the economics support a weighted split for Floyd, it has nothing to do with whether I want to see the fight or not.

    I agree, he said that... I believe that was so he'd have a way out (duck) in case Pac agreed to his (Floyd's) original 14-day cutoff.

    No dawg, it was Floyds offer that Pac walked away from, currently that isn't the offer. You ignore obvious economical norms, if you get a stock quoted today refuse to buy, you run the risk of the stock going up while you "think about it". When you come to the conclusion that you do in fact want to buy, you can't go back and say "I want to buy, but I want to buy at the price you quoted me 6 months ago". It's irrelevant what the offer was then, the dynamics are different NOW, hence that offer means nothing.

    True. Plus Floyd pretty much dominated Shane so he deserves 60 in my eyes. As a fan I think he should take a deal for 50/50 split with random testing, if Pac would sign. But knowing how Floyd is its easy to see how he would want 60/40.

    I just hope he knows hes not getting any younger, and if Pac loses a fight 50 mil can fly out the window real quick. And no one out there now, or in the forseeable future, would be able to generate that kind of money against Floyd.

    When you think about it? They are all crazy.

    Had FMJ, Cotto, Margarito, Mosley, and Clottey put their heads together? They could have been swimming in money.

    Oh yea, same tired excuses for why that one guy failed to fight all those other guys, and how it was always the other guys fault. Never once acknowledging the only common factor was Floyd.

    I hear Floyd's selling one of his sea-cliff homes up in Michigan. He's letting it go cheap, you should give him a call.

    Please. Mayweather has ALWAYS fought the best fighter or option. The only person you have a case with is Gatti. Everyone else was either who the fans wanted to see or the top fighter. Pac fights pre-softened fighters.

    I heard there is no sea anywhere near Michigan. I guess you got that from the ******* wire.

    If you really believe that, there's no help for you.
    As they'd say in the movie Snatch, You've been proper f**ked.

    Why wouldn't I believe it. If you follow boxing you would know it is true.


    Sharmba Mitchell - Test of the weight blah fight
    Zab Judah - WW champion signed before he lost
    Carlos Baldomir - lineal WW champ
    Oscar DLH - WBC champ
    Ricky Hatton - Undefeated WW champ (I think Collazo beat him, but...)

    Retirement.

    Every fight was the fight the fans and boxing public wanted. The buys reflect that. I know you will mention:

    Margarito - Who was a nobody, with no straps, and immediately had trouble with Clottey and lost to Williams. Right.
    Cotto - Who had his hands more than full with Judah and had to cheat to stop the momentum of that butt kicking.

    Now the same Margarito is getting a shot at Pac? Why not Williams? Someone ain't fighting the right fights. It isn't Mayweather.
