The 'Manny is 1-2 in his last 3 fights' argument is getting thrown up alot. Considering Khan is 2-2 in his last 4...im assuming then that a Khan Vs Mayweather fight wont happen.
Otherwise it will be up there alongside the Cotto/Canelo..'I want my opponent to be comfortable at the weight', and 'Cotto's loss to Pacquiao doesn't count as it was at a catch-weight' talk.
Shocker. Team Pacquiao tells media they "plan" to meet with Mayweather yet make no plans to meet with Mayweather. Poor Manny. I wonder if he realizes Arum's setting him up for a loss in April.
Pacquiao needs Floyd now more than ever. He had his chance to take a long overdue test instead playing games and suing to avoid a fight.
Maybe if Pacquiao keeps winning and gets away from his money managers can the fight happen.
Pac needs to fight real challengers and win titles, not some propped up punching bag to make him look spectacular.
No one cares who needs who. People just want to see them fight. Floyd doesnt like risks he said it himself he is not fighting any dangerous. Its a business like Floyd said you have to be smart hes never fighting Manny.
The thing is I like both Manny and Floyd, but Floyd is coming of as a coward. I think he's afraid of losing, but he say's Manny is coming of 2 losses out of 3, then surely the best time to fight him must be know.
I feel the same way.
The only person coming out badly is Floyd.
If he is 100% super confident of beating Manny then fighting him in the next year would make sense - Manny has had one fight in the past 12 Months and lost his two fights prior to that. Floyd on the other hand has been relatively busy.
I think Floyd really just does not care about fighting Manny, any way you cut it up fighting Manny is a BIG risk for Floyd.
And he not a fighter to take risks...never has, never will.
Floyd Mayweather is not a coward per se, he is just a very careful and shrewd businessman / entertainer.
Manny would fight a lion, just to see if he could beat it.
Ali has a better resume, should Mayweather fight him? It's about current form too, which is why Khan shouldn't get a look in either.
Anyway, the point is, the title of the thread and what it implies is far from what's in the video and the sheep swallowed it like a skeezer needing a fix without watching it (if they did and still come to the same conclusion, there really is no helping them).
yes he should absolutely fight ali if ali is 30 active and is a welterweight.
khan is a young, strong(not), champion(not)
yes i watched it all. it is 1 interview cut into clips posted by fighthype one at a time. every clips that i watched shows mayweather is not interested in pac.
classless Floyd...when he went to jail, Pacquiao didnt kick him when he was down. Pac was classy and said he prayed for the guy.
Now Pac has personal problems, and Floyd is gossiping and bringing up his tax issues.
WTF? Dude has no class.
Pac was never as good as people thought. The end.
Floyd, his uncles, his father, his dogs, his cats, his idiot fans are putting all sort of excuses to block the fight. It was known to everybody Pac vs Floyd would be the biggest fight of this century. How lame you easily forgot how Pac easily beat and did much better against their common opponents (Oscar, Hatton, Mosley, Cotto). Pac was never as good as people thought your idiot ass.
Fraud has zero excuses to be ducking this fight now. He's basically laid it out that Pac doesn't deserve the fight because of this recent losses. So what was the problem 4-5 years ago when this fight was called for? He didn't have those recent losses back then... Yet he rather keep picking on mental midgets who are supposedly greater than the fighter of the decade? Lol, Fraud needs to come up with better excuses because only his mental midget fans buy into them.
After last night, Floyd won't ever fight him lol. Pacquiao is 100 times more dangerous than Maidana and with actual movement and speed. It would look similar to last night only worse.
Awkwardness is Floyds enemy, Pac is awkward as hell and hard as hell to time, people are blind, they keep saying Marquez whooped Pac, but forget to watch the part where JMM had to go through hell just to do so.
They conveniently leave that part out.
Pac is done now though, he isn't the same beast he used to be.
I'd rather see Floyd fight Maidana over Khan, at least Maidana will go out on his shield and has power in his fists. He won't just sit there like Canelo and try to counter punch Floyd hoping he comes forward.

Floyd did almost the same things that he questioned about Manny.
"Rios is a LW fighter"
==>> Floyd do you remember retiring and fighting a LW in Marquez and you "said" that you wanted Manny?
"Rios is inexperienced at the elite level"
==>> Remember you, Floyd, saying that you were fighting a guy who was relatively inexperienced at the elite level, in a guy named Canelo in your last fight?
let's face it, even Floyd is admitting that Manny wants it. SO that just leaves Floyd to get it on but he doesn't want it until it's the "right time". You know, they need to see Manny in a few more wars or lose another step that way it would be easier to defend against that version of Manny. It's almost time but not quite there yet.
Pacquiao should go down on his hands and knees and beg floyd for a match..
imagine....just imagine how many pacfans and floyd haters would be ridiculing floyd if he took the pac fight after the marquez knockout saying sh*t about damaged goods, but then Floyd gives out a true honest thought the haters STILL wanna lynch the guy..
Floyd can find the cure for cancer and build a time machine and he'll still get crapped on..
This board is full of rabid crazies who rep a fighter no matter what. It's also full of very anti-US bias which is where some of this comes from.
Outside of this board in a place we call reality, everyone knows that Pac/Arum never had any intention of fighting Floyd and the fact that anyone uses the Broner fighter to prove that Floyd is scared of Pac is either using drugs or just doesn't know anything about boxing. Take your pick.

And you got that from the video (which was nothing to do with last night's fight), which the OP suggested? Or let me guess, you haven't watched it have you?
