    We all know Floyd is avoiding Pac but what do you think concerns him about fighting Pac? Floyd is just as quick as Pac if not faster. He has a decent chin. He has great defense.

    I think Pac's Tasmanian devil like fighting attitude worries him. What do you think?

    floyd mentioned something about self-preservation and would not be forced into a fight that the people wants to see.

    he said that his health is more important among other things. if you need a source, just feel free to ask and i would show you where floyd said it himself.

    If they ever do fight, Floyd seriously ****s him up, and I'd be very surprised if a cocky son of a ***** like Floyd has any doubt whatsoever that this would be the case. I think any non-fanboy will tell you that all the bull**** that's transpired throughout these negotiations has everything to do with the huge egos involved and nothing to do with anybody being "scared". Floyd wants to dictate everything, Uncle Bob will not allow himself to be dictated to and Manny's under contract with Bob, so he doesn't get much of a say.

    Pac applies the pressure for 12 rounds and that is hard for anybody to deal with. Floyd would probably beat him anyway because he is faster and Pac leaves himself open.

    Floyd is not afraid of PAC, he just doesn't want to split his share of offering free rooms, buffets, and limo rides from the airport with PAC. If not for that he would have kicked PAC azz already.

    what do you think? pac is a great fighter, has a very good shot of beating him. If none of this was true Floyd would have fought him already. Wouldnt have been talking about blood testing or vacations, or purse splits or any other bull****. He would have fought the guy, and made his big payday like he's done in the past.

    Pac is not really a threat to Floyd anymore...lets look at the facts, once Pac lost to Marquez, Floyd was EXTRA anxious about fighting him, he even called him on the phone, and offered to WIRE the money, THAT day....Now its not like he offered ten million which is a blatant duck, he offered 40, and said he was gonna give him 20 in CASH, that day.....another fact we have is, Arum told fat dan that he will NO LONGER release Pac's ppv numbers....ever since the Mosley fight, and the Marquez fight...Pac's numbers are so low, that he admitted himself that he deserves less...Cotto got higher ppv numbers than Pac, but thats because Pac doesnt listen to the fans...everyone was against his fight with Mosley, but he ignored us all and fought him anyway...ever since then, his stock has went down dramatically...when Floyd was gonna fight guerrero, every one got mad, and Floyed changed his mind instantly...the fans have SOME control over Floyd, but NO control over Pac....and adding this all up, I see Floyd doing everything in his power to make the fight...trying to make the fight HIS way....but I see Pac simply not agreeing...and what it boils down to, is Pac NEVER should have said he would take less, if he wasnt going to, because Floyd will NOT forget it!

    Yeah, keep telling yourself that. Mother****er can't even beat Marquez convincingly and Floyd is bigger, stronger, faster, better and punches harder than JMM. Fanny has nothing more than a puncher's chance... At best. :p

    There is something about Pac that makes Floyd nervous. I don't know what it is. Perhaps someone close to him (like his dad) is nervous about Pac and that has rubbed off onto Junior.

    If I had to bet money on who would win the fight, I would always put it on Floyd. Pac is an amazing fighter, but I think that Floyd is just as good or better, and is a stylistic mismatch for Pac.

    Yet there is no other way to explain Floyd's attitude other than one of fear. It's almost like a superstition he has. Superstitions change the way people behave, even though logically there is nothing to be worried about. I think there is something in Floyd's mind that makes Pac scarier than logically he should be.
