    On Jimmy Kimmel show... Pacquiao just said he would fight Mayweather in a winner takes all. Will Floyd accept it?

    Come on, no fighter would actually put that in a binding contract with this much money at stake.

    If a fighter were actually crazy enough to do so, his team would have the good sense to stop it.

    Bad idea for Manny. Floyd may be a coward, but he still has the skills to win.

    Floyd would never agree, Manny would never do a real offer in the first place, their teams would never allow it to happen.

    That's some Hollywood-type ****. Rocky Balboa going to Russia to face Ivan Drago for free.

    Only in a dream world would two fighters actually do a winner-take-all with this much money at stake.

    Hell, this fight would probably fall apart on one side's insistence to get 50.1% of the purse.

    Winner take all fights dont happen because of bad decisions.

    Do any of you think Mayweather would get a decision against Pacquiao if Pacquiao was so much as semi-competitive????

    What they could do is a winner take all only if the winner scores a KO.
    ......and even then, there's the possibility of a refs early stoppage.:lol:

    I believe this condition immensely favors Pac. Floyd will definitely could win via decision. But the only way Pac beats Floyd is by KO

    If I was Mayweathers team I would advise him to take the deal. But no adviser on either side would allow that

    Arum and Hayman would have simultaneous heart attacks if Pac and May were to actually agree to this.

    One guy has a boss the other does not... why in the hell would you risk millions of dollars that is why Pac will never be as savvy as Floyd as far business is concern.
