Remember I said this, expect Algieri, even in defeat, to kill this fight's vibe.

Floyds contract with showtime is on a fight by fight basis. He will fight who they approve.

The TV networks are the ones that can really apply the right pressure to make something get done. I will believe it when I see it but this is something you want to see if you have any hope for that fight occurring.

11y ago

Great news. But I won't believe until I see them face to face

This is alreaady known, even the head of CBS said he wants Floyd to fight Pacman and is willing to do a joint venture with HBO like what happened with tyson lewis, but Floyd said no Pac has to fight on showtime ppv only wtf? if your boss said he is okay with a joint venture what is the problem you dont run showtime cbs. But Manny ALWAYS says NO , just accept and get it on .

Part 2: LarryXXX: Hear me out, Guerrero is more dangerous than you think.

Showtime: We're willing to negotiate with HBO and make this fight happen. Floyd: I'm loyal to showtime! No negotiations! Showtime: But we just sai- Floyd: The people asked for it and they're getting it. Mayweather-Guerrero 2. *awkward golf claps* TBEshouter: THE BEST EVA! THE BEST EVA!

Who would take this guy seriously? He can't even make Haymon fighters fight each other let alone Mayweather fight Pacquiao.

11y ago

Who cares, it's not like Espinosa actually calls the shots on anything. Was Salka his top choice for Garcia? Roman his top choice for Santa Cruz? Santana his top choice for Peterson? I doubt it, so why would we think he gets his say on his top choice this time?
