    arum knows that floyd is a bad style match up for pac, but I think this is just negotiation tactics to get floyd to lower his purse demands.

      Cosidering ***** boy was in hidding for two years, how the phuk is Manny ducking JoyBoy? Or Maybe Manny should have faught JoyBoy on the same night he destroyed Hatton? (you know the same night which Floyd came out of hidding) :lmfao: Manny did not even break a sweat mopping up the floor with Hatton, I am sure Manny still had plenty more whoop ass in that can of his that he opened up on Hatton. I don't think pussboy was ready to take a sip of that just yet.

It's funny how a little plaster changes people's perspective.
        I have no beef with Pacman-Cotto fight (although if they drag Cotto down to 143 I really do not like Cotto's chances), because it is a risky fight, that should do good business.

        Mayweather-Pacman is the much larger event though, although I think we will get to see Mayweather-Mosley if we see Pacman-Cotto. There is something to be said for letting Pacman_Mayweather fight truly build for 1 more fight each (after the JMM fight should Floyd win), because if they get through both those fight it gets that much bigger and every day that passes there is more demand for it as it is now, but that is risky business when you take on live opponents.

            You should have taken advice from your user name and googled it *****, Manny's people have already said they want Cotto over Floyd.

              Except for little 36 yo Marquez, who's jumping up two weight classes to get some.

                I believe that too, but I also think he wants to get Cotto a huge money fight to keep Cotto around after he seemingly threw him under the bus with the Marg wrap situation.

                  Like how Taylor fought Froch at an unnatural weight.

                    Unnatural weight? Who's fault is that?

                    Taylor had a rematch clause with Pavlik, that stated if Taylor should lose that fight, they would move the next fight up to 166 which they did. Taylor lost and started campaigning at 168 and then faught Lacy. So don't come at us with that unnatural bullshiet cus you are wrong. Taylor sucks at 160 and he sucks at 168. PERIOD!

                      Taylor couldn't make MW anymore genius, that's why the Pavlik rematch was at a catchweight. Think, then post.
