    Top Rank says they are will to negotiate with Floyd for a Pacquiao match up

    "I agree that there is a public demand for it that you don't see often in our sport, this pent-up demand for Pacquiao and Mayweather," duBoef said. "I think it's because the names resonate globally, they've been in big fights, they've been in marquee positions.

    "So I think it does have a totally different appeal that is just what fight fans want. I think if both guys win, we sit down and talk. If rational behavior prevails, which it has a tough time doing in our sport ... then the public will get it."

      It's going to be funny if Mayweather loses.

          Is this Top Rank recognizing where the money flows from?

            Start laughing now; marquez should have this

            He is fighting an active, #2 p4p guy while he is coming off a 2 year layoff.

              It's Top Rank admitting that what Pacquaio wants, Pacquiao gets. Bob Arum may run TP, but Pacquiao runs Bob Arum.

                Even if Floyd lose, I think Pac-PBF still happens. He will borrow a line from Nate Campbell & tell Pac, "You are going to fight a Mexican again??? You never fought a Black Fighter!!! Are you scared of black Fighter???"

                  I'm starting to think that the fight wont happen also.
                  Maybe Pac - JMM will happen or Mayweather - Cotto.

                    The only one that wont happen is JMM vs Cotto ,,,,, you watch the winners of these fight get matched its a moral , Pac has the greater risk and Cotto has a big chance , Floyd should win ,,, the winners go at it .
