    If he doesn't fight and beat Pacquiao, he will be a laughing stock.

    That's why I said before, this is the moment of truth for Floyd. His last shot at redemption for the many people who haven't condemned him already. In 2009, sure, the drug testing botched the fight. But there seems to be no obstacles at this point in time. I'm giving him until Super Bowl, the benefit of the doubt, unless there's an announcement made before then with a decision. But with Cotto not agreeing to fight Canelo and that fight off, it's very alarming. If the Pacquiao fight is not made this time, I will cease being a fan.

    To my understanding they've already agreed on that. While I don't believe Pac should get that amount, if they've agreed, it's no longer an issue.

    Pac and Floyd should retire if not fighting each other at this point.

    Cotto i think is next

    Wonder how p*ssed everyone is gonna be when espinoza blames it on hbo? I can see it now on twitter "floyd wanted this bad! Sorry but hbo not playing ball so we move forward"

    Get ready for it

    Pacquiao.

    Showtime needs to really force his hand.

    How about the Floyd Pac fight isn't really being negotiated and you all are getting played? I picked Cotto...

    Exactly!
    No one want's to watch a 80/20 matchup.
    At least Pac is 60/40 underdog.
    Showcase fights are **** unless it's a prospect on the way up with less than 20 fights!

    i have a feeling that team ***** is going try to kill this fight by changing the purse split from 60-40 to 65-35.

    If he doesn't fight Paquaio then as far as I'm concerned he isn't fighting. Ive given up on him like so many other real boxing fans

    I think 50/50 would be the fairest split with the fight being held either at Texas Stadium or Macau China with Tony Weekes or Steve Smoger as referee. only one Vegas judge allowed. No special stipulations. Have a clean , honest straight down the line fight with the better man on the night legitimately getting the win. The chances of Floyd letting that happen though

    ZERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
