I can't find one satisfied boxing fan these days....I really think its time for the many fanbases....the many nationalities....the many cultures....and the many different voices to become ONE!!!!....I found two dudes who feel EXACTLY like I do....I know there's more!!.....VENT if you must...actually I PREFER you to vent in this thread....I'm fed the hell up and hope that BOTH Floyd and Manny and ALL the advisors, promoters and managers who help them bullshit the public....suffer in a huge way!!....its time for US to make history...fukk Floyd's historic compubox stats...and fukk Manny's historic run(even tho I like the lil dude and respect his game but whats fair is fair)....its time for us to make our move and leave our mark on our sport....we cant let these chumps kill our sport....we gotta fight like the warriors we discuss on these boards...we gotta stand up like the gladiators we admire and pay hommage to on here.....NOW here's the 2 dudes who got me amped....LISTEN to this TRUTH!!
I said this before and i'll say it again. There were some talks going on between Arum, Greenburg and Haymon. To deny that there was talks of any kind you have to be insane. However "negotiations" in the traditional sense did not take place but there were some talks that took place. Both sides are in a sense correct with their statements. Some sort of talk went on but no negotiations took place.
If pac wants to fight mayweather he knows what to do and if mayweather wants to fight pac he knows what to do. Only the fans who are making these two fighters rich are suffering so why not take things into your own hands and boycott every non legit fight they have until they fight each other? Your'e the ones who support their diva behaviors by lining their pockets with cash no matter how much they cheat you so do something about it, take a stand. Without your money they don't have the power to do what they are currently doing with their prima donna act.
The simple fact of the matter is that Floyd Mayweather didn't want the fight. I don't know if he didn't want it now or if he just doesn't want to fight Manny at all, but he passed on the fight and that is why we aren't getting the biggest fight of all time. The best thing to do would be to boycott Floyd Mayweather's next PPV, but to be honest I don't know who the hell Floyd could fight next that would even draw enough interest to be a PPV promotion besides Pacquaio.
May sound silly but start a facebook page. Facebook pages, if enough people join, tend to get media attention. All this bullshit right now is already starting to generate attention. There's an article in today's NY Times about Floyd and Manny. The wave is rising...
You should be fed up. Because the sport is being run right into the ground. And I think fans are beginning to realize how close we are to that. People say that boxing will die - that's fine but it's becoming a vegetable.W hat's the difference? I never liked the government but damn, I wish they'd get involved.
Damn I'm loving that new sig.:fing02:.....Green K coming
Boxing has always been like this, so in reality I'm not suprised. I just think it's been a while since we had some real diva sh1t from our top stars and the only reason it's seems bad is because the boxing writers report so much on the issues.
Roy vs Hopkins would have been just as bad IMO if we got all the back story.
Same with Bowe vs Lewis and other big time fights that fell apart. I read a lot so I get a lot of the behind the scenes stuff and honestly a lot of those are just as bad but the problem is we never really hear of them. Everything concerning Manny vs Floyd is reported which is why it seems as bad as it is.
To be honestly I really don't care much about all of that as there is a lot of great things to look forward to in boxing. Right now I'm actually focused on amatuer boxing such as the new WSB tourney they have, and also keeping my eye on a lot of the young pros who will be future stars. Boxing will never die because boxing has always been the same. It has survived similar b.s. in the past and it will definately survive Floyd vs Manny not happening, the 140 fiasco, and they top HW contenders being scared to face the Klitschkos.
BTW the biggest advice from me to you is this: Just focuse of all the other talented boxers and future stars because the is actually a lot of good going on in the sport of boxing.

the terms of a contract has nothing to do with fan which a petition irrelevant.
you need to look at it from the fighters point of view as if you were them. fans need to get it out of their minds that we can control other means lives. especially when they are the ones that get in the ring and put their lives at risk.
if pac was in floyds position, he would expect the same.
no matter how emotional yall get. 5050 and 14 days wont happen, neither will 5050 and full OST.
pac is going to have to compromise on both, and thats just the truth of the matter. so start your petitions or whatever, they will only get laughed at
i can careless wether floyd and pac fight. im more interested in floyd sergio at 154 or 160(for the MW strap at 160)anyways
It's not that I don't see where you are coming from butt I just want to see who's the better fighter instead of arguing with a bunch of ethugs.
I been tired of these dudes for about a year now. I'm more pissed at floyd though he is doing it again. Yup! Taking a break & waiting shit out like he did a couple years ago. I can't really knock Pac b/c he still fighting & he fighting the guys people claimed floyd ducked. Really though I'm to the point where I don't even want to see the fight.
and sing Kumbaya? LOL We are the people who make this sport, but at the same time, we don't have any control of the business.
Maybe we could become promoters on some kind of Union.
Damn right,I've been fed up with those 2 fvckers for months,I really don't care if either 1 ever fights again,real talk,here's why:Who they fight,if it's not each other,is going to be a handpicked opponent who they are supposed to beat on ppv!!
Manny is gonna try for a title at 154 at a catchweight against a cheater who isn't the jr. middleweight champ!!Then Floyd came out of retirement to fight a fat lightweight at welterweight as a tune-up & still put the fight on ppv!!These guys don't give a rat's a$$ about the fans!!I see right through all their bull$hit!!
I have 2 names that I'd be impressed if either 1 fight,I'd be impressed if Pacman fought the Punisher at 154 for a vacant tile,that's impressive!!I'd be impressed if Floyd fought Martinez for the middleweight title & U know what,there isn't a fight fan alive that wouldn't watch those fights!!
