    Yeah, you pretty much don't tell Mayweather what to do or give him ultimatums if you expect him to do business with you. Not like he needs to fight.

      I'd love Arum to say that. he couldn't fight Marg or Cotto when they were top challengers at WW cuz of Arum, but he'll come boundin outta retirement to face Pac, anotha one of Arum's guys? PBF's gonna be on the hot seat.

        I have no problem with Floyd teeing off on Cotto or dancing around Tony while Pac demolishes Hatton. It'd make the fight that much bigger, plus it'd let us see if the layoff has effected Floyd at all.

          Mayweather wants Pacman,

          At fight night Pacman was 148 and Mayweather would be 149 same size
          why should pac fight floyd?

          floyd needs this fight more than pac does.

          pac can just go fight hatton and marquez again. lots of money in those fights.

          pac already has a great resume. he doesn't need a floyd win for legacy.

            I would if I was Arum. It'd get 2 of his fighters big money fights.

            hahahaha...absolutely! Make him dance if he wants that money!

              go ask the limeys what they'd rather see pac-hatton or hatton-floyd 2.

                It's hard to predict which of those three fights would be easiest for Floyd to win.

                Floyd wouldn't knock Marg out, but he'd win in a shutout without ever getting hit back, just like he did with Baldomir. Floyd vs. Pacquiao would look kind of like Floyd vs. Zab, except easier for Floyd and without all the crazy stuff. Floyd vs. Cotto would just be an straight up early round knockout.

                  Mayweather has a great resume already, they both need each other for ATG status. Best P4P of the decade

                    the money would be crazy for mayweather-pac..way bigger then marquez and hatton.

                    he has a great resume, but adding floyd to that would be insane.

                    pac is a true champ and fights the best. floyd is the best.

                      he's a promoter.

                      he's suppose to be about the money.

                      getting a cotto-floyd or marg-floyd fight done is a great investment.

                      not just for one fight but......if they can beat floyd that builds up cotto and marg to the public.
