Pacquaito Not Fighting Mayweather Is What's Wrong With Boxing

[Bhopreign]

If Pac is willing to fight Cotto then clearly he's ducking Floyd Jr. Really??? Is this what we're supposed to believe?

There we go with that because Cotto is bigger than Floyd he must be a tougher fight for Pac, skills win fights. Floyd is more a nightmare than Cotto for Pacquaio, dont you agree?

pacquiao is a welterweight.

floyd is too small for 147.

I was takin a stab at TS' comedically ironic comment of Pac 'not fightin who he should fight, and that bein what's wrong wit boxing.'

oh ok.. cuz i couldnt understand what you meant because usually.. though you dont like floyd you make sense when you say things... and even though the article isnt coming from mannys mouth it states what everyone around him thinks.. which is probably what it is...

lol.. continue with that other guy TS.. lol whos that?

Both fights are tough for Pac, especially at 147, and it will remain tough until he retires. But the irony is you never hear Floyd calling out legitimate WWs where the talent is the deepest in all of boxing. Tell me why that is not ducking while Pac calling out Cotto is...

People want to see this, I dont understand this, the best fight the best right?

Floyd is fighting in July.

The Pac-Cotto fight might not even get made. Hold those horses.

Im just saying the biggest fight out there is Pac/Floyd, his team stated they would rather have Cotto, which sounds like a negotiating ploy I think. I kinda dont think he would fight Cotto unless it breaks down as the winner gets Floyd, then Pac takes on JMM for a 3rd time, if he wins then he gets Floyd. Thats three paydays, actually makes sense than fighting Floyd right off the bat.

I think this is boxing politics. Floyd is GBP and pac/cotto is top rank aren't they? Maybe Arum is gauging the interest in both fights because he will only let Pac fight pbf if the demand is a lot higher than the demand for a Cotto fight.

So if Floyd doesn't get Manny next he'll get the pac/Cotto winner which is a nice prospect for fans as well.

Mayweather never fought cotto, a match people wanted to see and claimed Mayweather was ducking. Now Pacman looks like he's going to fight the same person Mayweather ducked, arguably the best welterweight, who is clearly naturally bigger then Pacquiao, and a guy that would present a huge challenge for Pacquiao....thats ok in my book. Pacquaio has some balls for fighting Cotto.

I do think the Pacquiao camp has the wrong thinking though. They think Cotto is a come forward brawler, but he's more of a boxer puncher.

People wanted to see Floyd vs Cotto too, but obviously people have moved on. but now Floyd fans are mad at a Cotto vs Pacquiao fight?

Maybe Floyd's hype was exactly what it was...hype?
