The World Boxing Council (WBC) has surprisingly put Manny Pacquiao as its top contender in the welterweight class being ruled by Floyd Mayweather based on the latest ratings released by the Mexico City-based governing body.
Pacquiao wasn’t even rated in the last rankings that was released during the boxing body’s annual convention in Bangkok last month and his sudden inclusion has obviously something to do with efforts to make a megabuck matchup between them happen in 2014.
I hope this goes toward making the fight because it's way overdue and it'll give some disturbing obsessives something else to do with their lives other than post the same things on here over and over again.
Also, online geeks calling pro fighters "coward" from obscurity and anonymity never ceases to be funny. I guess some people need empowering somehow. LOL
I guess these people in this video are online geeks as well calling a pro fighter a coward, including Tyson himself :rofl:
Only people posting nsb not wanting this fight to happen are the floydiots.
It's like they think of Floyd as a pop singer like Justin Beiber who shouldn't get hurt. Only worshiped. Kids now a days go nuts for this kind of stuff. Beiber fever :rofl:

Okay fair enough. Now explain to me why Khan, who got brutally finished by Garcia and then was out on his feet in his last fight where he went life & death against Julio freaking Diaz.
Pacquiao vs Floyd is the biggest money making fight in the sport. And (supposedly) is "easy work" to boot. *Shouldn't* this be a fight Floyd is dying to make happen for the two individual reasons above?
Dude, don't expect Tyshun to reply back. That was total own-age bro. You got him good. He's in mute mode now :rofl:
Im a pac fan but i dont see what the fuss about how can you tell fmj who he can fight he can vacate im sorry but that ktfo6 hurt manny in alot of way beating rios is not a great win its like the other pac fans taking every a little thing as a moral victory im confused can a unbias boxing fan tell me what the fuss about???

Nice try though :rofl:

Lol too easy to say i'm a pac fan but in reality your not. Same as floyd saying manny pacquiao your next . Lol:wtf1:
Next move of Floyd, It's either he will surrender his WBC title or he will stick to his demand that Manny Pacquiao should leave TR and join TMT. Pacman whoops Floyd a*s! that's for sure!
Everyone is moving heaven and earth to make this fight happen. Including the WBC. What does Floyd do. Fight Khan.
If that ain't a hint of cowardice. What is?
ADP02 said it best..
Arum said recently "This fight has to be made. Let's do it". Going by the way Schaefer reacted, he took Arum seriously and went on a rant.
Arum said that the April date is TENTATIVE. Any rational business person would have a contingent plan.
Floyd and company has shown 0 intentions of wanting the fight. Recent interview "Manny who?" ..."Manny needs to avenge his losses first" .... "Manny needs to beat someone like Canelo first" ....
Any rational person hearing those comments from Floyd's camp would realize that FLoyd does not want it at the moment. They are waiting for Manny to slow down another step or two first.
I think Pacquiao will negotiate to try to get around 35%. I think Mayweather taking 30% more is more than fair. I think 35 is the very most that Pacquiao would get at this point in time. But this fight even happening is another story.
60-40 seems fair to me.
WTF are you talking about,,, the only way these guys gonna fight or prove to be a duck is if a purse bid happens,,
its an almost certainty that in april manny rematches bradley and win or lose he will lose his ranking as #1 contender to floyd,,
They usually give the champ sometime before enforcing a purse bid and by that time manny will have lost his #1 status because he either beats bradley and becomes a champ, or he loses to bradley and loses his #1 standing,,,
Either way, it looks like this fight aint happening
Wtf you talking. Floyd's fight is in may. That is enough time to fight the mandatory challenger or surrender his belt. Which we know he will do.
Cinco de mayo baby. Enough time man.
Either they will not agree. Mayweather drops the belt or It will go to a purse bid that Mayweather or Golden Boy needs to win. If it go to a purse bid then the split might be 75-25 split with Mayweather, who, as the titleholder, would be entitled to the lion's share.

wtf you talking, if Floyd fights the mandatory challenger which is Pac. Then PAc doesnt have to fight Bradley which he will exploit again anyways. Why? Firstly he won the first fight. Secondly Provodnikov gave Bradley hell and you know who's both trainer. That's right Roach. The next time Bradley will face Pac he will be in deep deep *****. All the info Roach got from those 2 fights will give him a master game plan to finally finish him.
But then again, If Floyd grows a pair which we highly doubt. Then Pac doesn't have to go through other prospects like Bradley. It's a shame really. Floyd will move the goal post another mile. Wait and see :rofl:
Exposing this coward is entertaining in itself.

Idiots really think Pac wud fight Floyd for 20% of the purse, how does Arum make money from this fight?
Pac wud not go in to a career ending fight for such little% and on top of that he is having tax and financial issues.
He will fight Bradley for majority of the purse and then maybe one ore fight just so he can negotiate a 40% of the purse.
Arum knows this as does Pac, you gotta have something to bargain with, Floyd holds all the cards at the mo
Money is the issue, Arums ego will not allow Floyd to take 80% of the purse, no way
Floyd will probably complain about being dictated too by a sanctioning body or something like that.. Hopefully he doesn't do the usual "I'm my own boss.." and Manny doesn't do the usual "Talk to my promoter" and the WBC can actually force a play here
Back when Pac was WBO champ, Floyd avoided Pac with the excuse he only fights for WBC belts.
Now, Pac is #1 mandatory Floyd might be heard he only wants to fight other champs. WTF?! Haha!
Hahaha! nightmare scenario for Floyd. He really is in a checkmate position. :rofl:
This is a great move by the WBC,,, they know the sanctioning fees would be astronomical for this fight...
Have manny become #1 contender, and force a purse bid,,, Then Arum and GBP can duke it out in an auction to see who brings the most cash to each fighter,,
The split is usually 70/30 or 75/25 for the champ, cant remember but it would be a fair deal for all parties involed,,
It would cut out all the BS negotiations and would actually force GBP, TR, to put up or shut up,,
It would force both manny and floyd to fight, or be shown as a huge duck,, If floyd vacates, its a duck, and if manny backs out, its a duck
THis is the best scenario to make this fight happen
At least here you make sense.
