Mayweather May Duck a Pacquiao Fight, Says Arum

[Vasyl’s dad]

I am sick of seeing crap like this and people on this site making ridiculous claims about Mayweather ducking this person or that person. Everyone who says that pretends like they don't know the history of Mayweather or act like his efforts to secure fights in the past don't matter. All of these clowns and haters have double standards.

I have said numerous times on this site that Cotto had four years to fight Mayweather before he retired (four years from the time Mayweather arrived at 140 until he retired) and never wanted to fight Mayweather. Mosley turned the fight down twice. Neither of these guys wanted the fight until after Mayweather sold 2.2 million PPVs against Oscar. Ricky Hatton turned the fight down three times before he actually developed the balls to fight Mayweather.

In a way, I hope Mayweather/Pac can't come to an agreement. Mayweather will fight and beat Mosley. Pac will fight Marquez and get his ass whipped. Then, there won't be any question as to who will get the 60 percent in a Mayweather/Pac fight.

Margarito, "we'll fight later down the line" "who is he? he has four losses, who has he fought?"
Cotto, "he needs to get his PPVS up"
Shane, "I don't fight sparring partners"



quack quack.


I know it hurts you that you follow such a lame, but try not to take it so personal when people give you the truth.

You can say Floyd wanted Cotto all you want,

you can say Floyd wanted Shane all you want,

you can say Floyd would have and could have done this and that all you want, but it will never change these facts.


Margarito Williams
Margarito Cotto
Margarito Shane
Margarito Clottey
Cotto Clottey
Cotto Shane
Cotto Pac


5 years in the division and he hasn't fought a single one.

phax,


lets deal with them.

you're sick of it?? oh well,,get sick more,it's nothing but the truth

A fight that's good for boxing will get ruined by Roach and Arum...but because Mayweather is considered a duck and people are unaware of his skill, they'll blame him. Roach is saying he doesn't want to fight when he brings up 145lbs 60/40. That's the dumbest **** I ever heard.

[Da Hammer]

IF this fight does get done man i think this site will be more relieved than excited haha. A lot of drama we can expect for the next month or 2 months as i assume thats the timetable for this fight to happen, well if its going to happen in may.

Mayweather would rather look good than be good

If Mayweather was truly interested in being the best he would fight and beat Pacquaio who is now the consensus pound for pound. But he wont which is why many like Arum consider him a fraud paper champ.. He would rather look good than be good.

Top Rank's Bob Arum is not confident that Floyd Mayweather Jr. will accept a fight with Manny Pacquiao. He will try his best to put the fight together. HBO will push to make the fight happen by next May. Even with such a demand, Arum has doubts in his mind. He is convinced that Mayweather ducked fights with Shane Mosley, Miguel Cotto and Antonio Margarito in order to protect his undefeated record. Arum has always said that Mayweather cares more about his undefeated record than he does about money. [details]

let me get this right.....see I use the side of my brain that has been shut down in others due to the brainwashing tactics that has been used against the world!!.....so I'm having trouble following Arum's statement!!.....Floyd made the FIRST move by doing a video interview saying he would do this and do that to Manny.....he said he's game in so many words!!!.....so how can you get the impression he'd duck Manny.....when EVERYBODY knows that this is the fight he came back for!!!.....AGAIN.....I use the OTHER side of my brain to comprehend ****....and Arum is playin' on dumb fans intellegence!!!....**** outta here!!

Don't see why he would overprice himself. In a interview with sky sports he said how is he a loser if he makes 60-70 million dollars.

For sure he will take it, he wants the big money fights.

Any clown knows both fighter want the fight, What Arum has in his favour is he knows how to twist thing to get to the less knowledgeable people in the sport of boxing.

a lot of dumb boxing fan are just too easy to fool and they all jump on a word of someone like Arum and they follow with it like the Disciples of jesus christ, I for one dont believe any crap about how Mayweather would duck Pac, There is too much money involve for both to say no to the fight.

[PAKYO]

I've been using the other side of my brain too but it say to me all of floyd's talking, points to avoiding all fights with the elites.

He'll fight Hatton in UK. That's his target.

I see there are many here(on this blog) who don't care about making informed posts. You all know who you are.

Go to the archives and find the Roger Mayweather's interview he did before the Floyd-Marquez fight. He said Floyd came back to fight Marquez in preparation for a fight with Pacquiao.

Floyd himself said he'd fight and beat Pacquiao and that not even a week ago. He also said that Pacqiao's team were using Floyd as their marketing tool hence they kept mentioning his name during the Fight build up - that's also the reason why Floyd kept his mouth shut about who he wants to fight next until Pacquiao beat Cotto.

Julle is te doof manne. Kan julle nie sien dat Arum wil met Floyd se kop speel.
