    Give them credit for at least trying to make the fight and checking their egos. Money could have easily agreed to fight Matthew Hatton for an easy $10-15 million.

    Both fighters and companies need to put their egos aside and do what's best for the sport and give the fans what they want. They could easily make this into a trilogy and make $80-100 million for each fighter after the three fights.

      Probably, but unless the mayweathers will issue an all-out public apology, I don't think pac will soften and not pursue the case

      i have a hunch, just by reading all over the net and talking to some filipinos as well that if pac drops the case he will face his people's wrath!

      pac is their hero and heroes are suppose to face death than allow himself to be humiliated this way

      I'm just guessing that this is the case

        Manny's camp and his fans never accused floyd of something as damaging as that!
        Floyd jr never accused he asked for the random blood test , yes I can see how children will stomp there feet and say how dare him ,, but in this world in a contest of this magnitude and purse its a very fair thing to do to guarantee a equal contest , testing favors both fighters in knowing your opponent is clean , thats a very good thing to have , and it sends a clear message to the world that boxing is trying to be clean .

        I dont expect many of the Pac fans in here to get past their profanities and into logical discussion because of their age and eyes for only hating on Floyd , that cant be helped untill they mature , we have a while to wait for that .

          Because they thought Filipinos are dumb and can easily seduced by $40m. The Philippines become poor because of its pride. After the WW2, Philippines is the 2nd richest in Southeast Asia but because of too much politicking, Philippines is now a 3rd world country.

            and why do you think he asked for this random blood test? to clean up the sports? Give me a break!!!! It is because, according to his interview with RA Rugged Man: Philippines produces all these kind of performance enhancing drugs!!!

            honestly man, you're claiming to be a grown up and insult the age bracket of the pacfans but for someone with a fully developed brain, you actually fell for ellerbe and the mayweathers?

            "fair thing to do to guarantee a equal contest , testing favors both fighters in knowing your opponent is clean , thats a very good thing to have , and it sends a clear message to the world that boxing is trying to be clean"

            this is all BS!

                    i wouldn't class your country 3rd world though. 3rd world are underdeveloped countries like most of Africa

                    Phils falls under developing countries. In investment banking, Philippines is considered as part of the "Emerging Markets"

                    now that is completely off topic

                      Sorry, I was taking about your sig.

                      I agree, because he was offereing a jab, that led Hatton to think a jab was coming when it really wasnt. Thats bascially lieing to a fighter, like telling him youre gonna do something but you dont. The guys cheats on his wife for crying out loud so this isnt a surprise.
