Comments Thread For: Mayweather vs Pacquiao Negotiations Hit a Snag

[odogg8121]

The Pac camp is no worse or better than the Floyd camp. Both cherrypick their opponents. Don't tell me that David Diaz wasn't specifically chosen for 135. DLH could have been at any weight - it was all about cashing in on the Golden Boy. Hatton was pure hype and already exposed by FMJ and Lazcano. They asked Cotto to go down to what, 143? How's that make sense? Pac's willing to fight at 147 for DLH but with Cotto, they wanted him down to 143? And finally settled for 145? And made him put his 147 belt on the line? I don't call that 'wanting to challenge myself.' I call that cherrypicking, just like FMJ has done, just like ALL other boxers have done. If you're going to rattle on about boxing historians (and some unknown white boy rapper), then you realize boxing is big business first, sport second. If Pac is all about challenging himself, what's with Roach asking for Marquez at 145? FMJ at 145? Foreman at 148 for a 154 belt? If Pac is all about challenging himself, why wouldn't he just open his mouth and say, Yo, Freddie, I'm cool with the regular weight limits, I don't need these silly catchweights. But he doesn't. And Pac nuthuggers act like the guy is all zen and ****, because he doesn't say anything. I say the opposite - that the silence is deafening.

Yea both fight have cherry picked i agree but wat i mostly agree with is the fact that manny isn't speaking up IMO hurt him more than anything in this fight. Bcuz they are flat out sayin he is the hold up.

Why does Pacman want to go from beloved hero to a piece of **** polititian. This is just plain ****** he should be focused on boxing while he's on his peak and the do this bull**** after. If he does run I hope no one votes for him.

Would he do any worse? Probably not.

But you can't have it both ways. You can't butter both sides of the toast. If you're saying Cotto wouldn't have won against Pac at 147....then why didn't he just fight him at 147? Why even ask for 143? Why settle at 145 AND make Migs put the 147 belt on the line?

I said it before, if Floyd had pulled something similar, if he'd fought someone like Foreman, Martinez, Spinks, whatever, and made them come down in weight AND put their 154 belts on the line, forget it, the Pac nuthuggers/Floyd haters would have been put on their big floppy shoes, wigs, and big red noses and straight up CLOWNED floyd. The hate on this board probably would have crashed NSB for days.

yet, Manny pulls this stunt, and he's 'challenging himself.'

Can I get a Double Standard, straight up, with a slice of WTF?

pass me a slice of WTF also, both guys are good Floyd argues great but he has his points. Pac to be great i think he has to fight May but I dont think he wants to no hate jus my honest opinion.

Use your brain for once!!!

It ain't Pacman's fault why ODLH lost at 147 lbs.......it's just an "excuse" of being weight-drained why he lost his fight to Pacman...........

He fought a smaller guy.......and he is suppose to win the fight!!!

The way I saw the fight....ODLH was not weight-drained....starting from round 1 he was no match against Pacman!!! He can't match the ability of Pacman! and ODLH lost his heart early!

Even if it's 154 lbs....ODLH is no match for Pacman!!!

now ur on crack, at 154 Pac may have won the fight but it wud no way look the way it did. Come on dude they were feeding ODLH on his way to the ring...smh ******* im jus making points not arguing but ur a lost cost u agree wit me that he was weight drained then claim ur fight is not at fault...they knew ODLH wud kill himself making weight that y they agreed jus lik the rest of his fights...

even before pacquiao announced his running for congress, chicken already hinted he will not fight pac.

he's just too scared to fight a real warrior! now, chicken floyd has set his eyes on matthew hatton, not bad for chicken floyd. anyway, the brits will go all out for matthew even if the brits knew chicken floyd will beat matt with one hand.

they are loyal to their countrymen but im pretty sure they will not wager their houses to for matthew. they cannot be fooled twice.

Are u on drugs or just that damn ignorant...can you read? it says PACMAN is the reason for the stall smh im starting to think Pacman gives his fans free drugs lol

There must be a lot of money to be gained by being a Phillipino politician to turn away from what he can make in boxing. Just how crooked is that country.
