    I'm not going to beleive none of this until it actually plays out.

    This may well be a "counter negotiation tactics" from Pacman's camp, to PBF's "tactic" of bringing the possiblity if the PBF-Mosley match, when it has been said on several occasions by PBF himself that he will not fight Mosly because he is not a draw.

    All these rumors and names will be thrown in there by both camps probably just to bluff.

    Having said that if it's true that Pacman might fight for the 8 title and PBF goes on and fights Hatton, when Mosley can be available (if he beats Berto), the in the public opinion Pacman will continue to accomplish more than PBF.

    For Pacman it will be adding to his Legacy if he wins the 8 title but what will PBF add to his, if he beat Hatton's brother??? ZERO

    On the other hand if PBF fights and beats Mosley than he can probably close th gap, tie or even pass Pacman as the best P4P of the moment, even if Pacman beats Foreman.

      Further : Why boxingscene writers aren't saying or I missed it what Roger Mayweather has said in the prefight interviews and now post Pac Cotto fight interviews is beyone me !

      Old mangrogerweather said Cotto would whup Pacmang!
      Now he is really concerned, LOL !!! Thats why they are in training !

      If Pacmangs ear heals and there is time to train for a March 13th fight, then Mayweather should forget this little tune up and go ahead and fight the BIG BOYS, Pac is one of the Big Boys, sooner or later unless he retires again, LOL, he's gonna have to face a real elite WW and WE ALL KNOW HE DON'T want that, especially Mosley, IF I ever saw fear in a boxer it was all over Mayweather when Mosley came into the Ring and challenged Mayweather !!!!!!!! YOU and everybody else saw it , FEAR was on him like a DRUNK MONKEY on a stump !!!
      it tells me Floyd wants to be at his best when he whoops Pacquiao's ass he has been off two years and if he feels he needs another tuneup then i say let him have a tuneup why wouldn't i want Floyd to be at his best?? and there still is no proof that Floyd even wants a tuneup so its just a rumor we know Pac doesn't want to fight Floyd he won't even say his name Roach doesn't even want Pac to fight Floyd thats why he talkin that Yuri bull**** face it Pac is scarred he knows he will get his ass out boxed and embarrassed people think the Pac-Cotto fight scared somebody all it did was prove that Pac is not on Floyd's level he could barley hit Cotto when Cotto was he was boxing so how is he going to hit Floyd?

        Can someone tell me why 2 weeks ago Roach said he wouldn't take the Mayweather fight in March because he would need to study Mayweather and need he's switched it to Mayweather doesn't want to fight in March?

          Wait a minute!!!

          Didn't Roach, after the Pacquiao Cotto fight, state that Manny
          would NOT go up higher in weight?

          That Manny was struggling to make the lower weights and that welter weight was his best weight?

          I couldn't find the post fight interview, but I know that's what stated.

            Rather than Pac-yuri, I prefer Pac to fight Corey Spinks at 154. Both are feather fisted anyway. Spinks is a good tune up for PBF coz he's Black & Slick. Yuri is also a Slick style but I prefer a Black one so we can Silence Nate Campbell.

                Floyd's last fight is a tuneup. How many tuneups does he need. Pac just fought 3 straight difficult fights (that he made look easy). Fighting one easy tuneup (a title-fight in super welterweight) is understandable.

                  These are negotiations tactics. Manny is not gonna fight an unknown Foreman for a small purse. From here on is only super fights for Manny, why take a risk? If Floyd is that mentally unstable and is so worried about his undefeated record is the only way I can see the fight not taking place.

                    LMAO, these pac fans trying to justify fighting Yuri Foreman. Picks the worst 135 titlist, #2 WW at a catchweight, now the worst 154 title holder.

                    Jokes on Pac.
