JMM is an ok fight but that fight like 50% to 33% as much as he would get with Floyd, which is still nice money but who else? There are not that many options at the top end of the sport around that weight (even in all weights).

    he has hatton, JMM then he can work on that 'legacy' thing by fighting top dogs at 140 or whoever from 135 wants to step up...he can fight nate, guzman, diaz....he has more options

        ******ed comment by Floyd's people.

        I think Pacquiao should fight Floyd now, but beating Hatton would definitely generate alot more hype.

        Too big of a risk though.
        What if he loses to ****man. All that money goes down the drain.

          Damn. It ain't about the past, it's about NOW. For a retired fighter who thinks he's still the_**** to come up with crap like this is an insult to boxing, to Manny, and to boxing fans. Manny is currently P4P #1. He should tell Floyd to **** off. Manny is too polite though.

              Nate, Guzman and Diaz together would not bring as much money, fame and glory as beating Mayweather. Also 3 fights is 1 years worth of work as opposed to just 4 months. Simple Economics

                That may be leverage just to get a better percentage on the fight say maybe 65/35 or 60/40, surely nobody is buying Floyd wouldnt fight Manny now considering what we have been hearing the past day or so, I guess he was referring to the losses early in his career.




                He got knocked out when he was 16 and 17 years old, what a ***ing tool..that hardly account for anything.

                His only loss is to Morales by UD, a competative fight, a fight in which he was green..a fight in which he came back and dominated Morales twice.

                    not arguing any of those points...however, the fact is; if floyd doesnt come out, he still has options and continue in doing his thing...what does floyd have? you think he's coming back to fight margarito/cotto/clottey or williams? that's highly unlikely bro...his big payday is manny and IMO, he's in no position to make demands



                    and as far as fame and glory, i think he's pretty well off at the moment

                      Really? I'd give him a swift kick in the balls. Scumbag.
