It is Mayweather that needed to step up. Boxing is not just about PPVs it is about legit boxing and in this part, no one can accuse Pacquiao of being lackadaisical. If anything Mayweather is the one that needed to catch up after his quasi-hiatus for about 2 years and now making a comeback.
This part of the sports' commercialization is what will ruin it. I'd say that Pacquiao is doing fine and dandy in the sport and what we need is to bring back the ole' integrity in the sport instead of just "money, money, money"...
If anything I feel insulted that Mayweather has gone fully commercialized and doesn't care about the championships. Sure money is good but it isn't the main goal but sportsmanships and the highest ideals of boxing as a sport.
It is your turn to catch up, Floyd.

Floyd didnt make PACQUIAO fight CLOTTEY. I mean look at how fast he was there to fight since negotiations fell through....... THAT WAS THE PLAN ALL ALONG, PACS TEAM MADE A HORRIBLE DECISION IN FACING CLOTTEY.

The hard line by Floyd is setting the stage for what many have expected - a battle over who receives the most money in the fight. The dispute over the issue random drug testing may become a secondary problem. During an interview with BoxingScene.com's Ryan Burton, Mayweather made his position very clear.

What kinda business decisions are being made over there at TOP RANK? I know the "LETS KEEP THE MONEY ALL IN HOUSE DECISIONS" and now its gonna bite them in the ass. No matter how you slice it, PAQUIAO'S BIGGEST NUMBERS WERE AGAINST DELAHOYA WHICH was 1.5 million, he did less than mayweather there, he did less than mayweather against hatton, this is simple truth. HONESTLY WHEN NEGOTIATIONS FELL APART THE LAST PERSON YOU WOULD HAVE GUESSED would have been CLOTTEY! Thats right there shows that its really BOB ARUMS ASS....

Just look at it, people ask "why did FLOYD FIGHT MARQUEZ?", IT WASNT FOR YOU DIEHARDS!!!! It was to show casual fans look how easy it is against the man that gave PACQUIAO HELL, and arguably beat him too" SO he beat the number 2 P4P. Now he's taking on the number 3 p4p (SHANE MOSLEY), the plan all along was to get PAC. That didn't happen, but if you look at it without hate you will see that mayweather in his last 2 fights is fighting the # 2, and #3 p4p boxers in the world, and wanted the # 1 in pacquiao. The fight is going to happen, thats why I noticed alot of PACQUIAO fans saying **** like even if PAC loses to floyd, he still is the best or some **** to that effect. They know that if he gets past mosley it's only a matter of time before PACQUAIO GETS TAXED. HOPEFULLY I WILL HAVE SOME POINTS BY THEN AS I really just watched from the outside before joining here recently. I will bet you or anyone else everything I have that MAYWEATHER WILL BEAT PAC.

But now that Pacquiao has been talking about the floyd fight still being his main goal and biggest possibility the past couple of days.....floyd throws out another roadblock.
I mean business is business but cmon.....really???
Heres a way to look at it, mayweather and oscar did more than PACQUIAO AND COTTO AND PAQUIAO AND HATTON COMBINED!
Why in the hell would you want to share 50/50 OF A POTENTIAL RECORD SHATTERING PPV with someone that just did 700k?
LOL UNDERSTAND NOW? And this aint nothing new, floyd basically told y'all this months ago, I remember thE article on this site! That if he made so much of money from this fight and did so many PPV that he wouldn't even negotiate on blood testing no cut off dates NADA! YOU ACT AS IF YOU DON'T REMEMBER THIS! LOL.

Floyd is already posturing for better share should his fight against Shane does better PPV. Another excuse to duck Pacquiao.
I know one thing for certain, Mayweather is not getting a dime form me. The trash talking style to hype your fights do not interest me. Why should I pay $55, sit for hours waiting for the fight, watch Floyd run, get frustrated, and then feel robbed? I can watch the ESPN highlight that wraps up the expected total two minutes of real action!!!
FLOYD, YOU ARE NOT GETTING MY MONEY. PERIOD!!! Lol
Watching the replay baby!!!
DID YOU BUY THE PACQUIAO / CLOTTEY FIGHT THOUGH? LOL.
