The real reason foreman was turned down?????

[FLY TY]

simply b/c it would only make the cloud of su****ion around pacman even thicker, had he moved up a defeated a JMW......


smart business move by top rank.

or a huge junior middleweight who boxes might be too much for a blownup featherweight?

[jrosales13]

Or maybe because it was a really risky fight. A losable fight?

[Doctor_Tenma]

Because he doesn't stand in front of his opponents.

It's a lose lose because Pacquiao may not win so impressively. I wouldn't say risky.

clottey at 170 as opposed to foreman at 158...hmmm...i hope pac gets ko'ed for his troubles...

"The cloud of su****ion" that the Mayweather camp created? No wonder Pac is suing.

all these are good reasons, but the excuse given was that forman is "too tall," and may come into the fight "near 170 lbs."



basically, it was a LOSE/LOSE for pacman......either he would've lost, or he would've won, and everybody would really start wondering wtf was going on....



smart move by top rank. that's the only reason i can think of, b/c that fight was more meaningful than joshua clottey.....nothing to gain by beating clottey, who lost to the guy you already beat.....
