I give him respect for listening to what Bob said to do. By the way this is a win, win for Bob. If Pac does lose it could catapult Bradley to stardom ala Pac vs Dela Hoya. Don't be surprised if a close decision goes to Bradley.
Arum is a few steps ahead of the game...he can't be a key player in this game for this long without being a good chess player.....if the oldman smells Manny getting smart he'll put him in there with a puzzle he might not be able to solve...you know, he might actually feed him to a young hungry dude who won't lay down..the oldman's game is to sale and profit....thats all!!...he can care less about the Pinoy cats
Tim Bradley
i think i wont. He was calling out floyd and pac and they were welterweights except floyd until recently.
Now floyd has no choice to fight sergio next after cotto or else he will be ducking him. that's if sergio can still fight at 154.
Yep Floyd opened up that possibility. So we shall see what occurs in the future.
Floyd has done he same thing. he says be an American (meaning he wants Americans to side with him on making Pac take the test).
With all this political sh*t mixed in with Pac. I can't see his team EVER allowing him to fight Mayweather. They have a country that depends on him winning....
The entire country would collapse if Mayweather clowned their national hero, pride and joy... It would be devastating. Mayweather will be looked upon as Hitler....
Do you think Bob gives a $h!t?!!!!
It used to happen at Wild Card a lot until Petey's power prevailed and became a health risk. But that sounds great. Quillin gets the belt and then Martinez really has no excuse!
But Quillin is Golden Boy.
I thought I saw him fight on a TR card. I thought he was being a good soldier by not calling out Chavez Jr. Good, that means he can call his @ss out as well as Martinez. Call out Authur Abraham(give him a welcome back present). Call out Dmitry Pirog and everyone else and get the MW division popping, if thats what he wants to do. He does have options at SMW too if he pleases.
Saul Alvarez vs Alfonso Gomez - NO OST
Erik Morales vs. Jorge Barrios - NO OST
Jesse Vargas vs. Josesito Lopez - NO OST
and according to your twisted flomo-logic, these guys are fscking pu$$ies because they are fighting without OST.. and wouldn't you know it, these guys are fighting on the floyd-ortiz undercard.. with floyd as the main event.. and they're not going through OST.. why the hell NOT?
and only flomo's and the master flomo himself is going to believe that USADA's not biased when it comes to floyd and pac.. hahaha.. floyd's 'attack dog' when he started his 'poochia's on ped or something' crusade.. the same agency that hails floyd as the 'white knight' of boxing and everybody else's sh|t... hahahah.. yeah right, they are not biased all..
OSDT is not free nor cheap, or other fighters would be doing it in a heart beat.
"We were involved in a negotiation, and I received an e-mail from the guy conducting the negotiation that they were going home after all of this time because Mayweather had said that he won't fight for less than $100 million. The negotiations were taking place in Las Vegas."
"There have been no negotiations. There have been none. There are none."
Ummm, these statements don't sound right.
By the way, who is "the guy?"
TMZ?! They must have paid a pretty penny for the Pac camp to even consider this. All they do is stretch controversy and try to degrade people. They would have came out with guns blazing- "Hey Manny how in the world could you beat a guy that big like that? You must on something special." They would have tried to clown him, so that was a smart move
Whenever Pacquiao fights people will be watching. People doesn't care what the undercard looks like. Proof to that statement...1.4 millions PPV Pacquiao/Mosley. November fight against Marquez, I heard the tickets are selling like hotcake and expecting a sellout and pay per view can be another block buster. Eat your heart out chicken Floyd. I heard Mayweather tickets are on sale at the flea market.
The actual numbers for the Pac/Mosley have been reported? Link?
The Cotto vs Marg fight definatelty makes sense, but he should not have said that. He lost some of his bargaining power with that line. What would happen if Cotto and Martinez ended up trying to come to terms on a fight? His own promoter, Bob Arum would say, you already know I can guarantee you an amount of Xmil( less than 5mil). I'm sure he would make than he did when he fought Mayorga or Foreman
I thought that Manny does it for the fans. So why doesn't he agree to full testing so he won't let his fans down?
"I do what my promoter says" and "I do it for the fans" are two statements that are on opposite sides of the sprectrum
Cause he was not invited at first (big mistake and no respect for Bute), but they soon realised that Bute should have been in there, so they changed their minds and THEN they sent an invitation. Bute is a WC since 2007, that tournament was in 2009, why would he accept to be the 7th or 8th to be invited in a Super 6 tournament in his weight class ? Bute made the right decision and that's why he's waiting for the winner.
Ward fought Bika in 2010 and won the decision. Bute fought and won an easy decision against the same Bika in 2007 ! Cant wait to finally see Bute vs the winner of that tournament.
Is that a legit excuse? "I wasn't picked first," or picked whatever number
I don't fell that going down to 140 matters either but let's see where they end up. Sounds like Marquez is their pick. The get revenge for Mexico angle won't even have time to collect dust.
I don't get it. Why does he get the Super 6 winner, when he did not want to be in the tournament in the first place? Its like he gets a bye straight to the championship.
Umm, why are you all comparing what Cotto and Marg did to Pac to come up with a prediction on what Cotto v Margs 2 will be?
By the way I thought Manny had no respect for Marg's power
