      Manny deserves the bigger purse he gives the fans excitement unlike BORING-SLOPKING who bores his fans to death to a whorendous 12 round decision that everyone thanks jesus has finally arrived!
      At the end of the day the "Numbers" are determined by the acutal "NUMBERS" that you can sell. PPV numbers. They can match up the Hatton and Oscar fights as well as the non-Hatton and Oscar fights.


      They'll lower the weight for Floyd to come down to as well.

        Option #2. They will need a prayer for a win against Mayweather.

          Manny doesn't feel confident he'll win, period. Floyd will be forced to retire again.

            LOL at the Floyd huggies. Suddenly, the man that was supposed to be too big for Floyd is an easy out for Manny.

            Manny has already **** on Floyd's resume, now he's taking on fighters Floyd wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole.

              Multiple selections should be permitted. They are not mutually exclusive!

                Pick the option you think best describes the reason why Manny is more interested in fighting Cotto next, rather than Floyd.
                why do you think Pac wont fight Floyd yet? lmao, you guys all need to CHILL. Wait till after the cotto/clottey fight and the marquez/floyd fight. I promise you all floyd fights pacman.

                  Arum was planning on a future fight with Floyd and Cotto when he had both under his control. As soon as Floyd left, only Mr. Plaster was offered. And the big Money for that fight didn't come until Arum heard Floyd and Oscar were in talks. That's how Arum works.


                  It's really a shame because it seems Pac wants to fight Floyd and whoever else. But it's up to Pac to take a stand.


                  It is all just talk anyway. Floyd has to get by JMM and has to put on a good showing.

                    If Cotto loses to Clottey and Floyd beats JMM, the only option is Shane and that probably isn't happening because Shane doesn't want to kill his body to make the lower weight. So that leaves us with Floyd unless they get a fighter at 140 which is possible. They can make Floyd wait until next year. It won't hurt them one bit because Floyd will be turning 33 and Floyd will most likely fight someone else in-between because he needs to stay active for that Money (that is rumored he may owe). So if Floyd has to face Shane, Shane can take something more out of him even if Floyd manages to win. Smart move.

                      don't be a douchebag, this is all negotiation tactics to get floyd to lower his purse demands.
