Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Mayweather Dictates The Terms, Not Pacquiao

[jayhova29]

What? Shane caught Floyd. Where was his defense when that straight right landed easily in the 2nd and shook up Floyd. Floyd leaves him self open and gets caught by Pac with 8oz reyes on the fight could be over early. Shane looked more tired than beat up after the fight and Floyd did land a lot of flush shots. Pac would have worked Mosley over and finished him.

I thought Floyd won 11rds to 1 against a top WW which is very impressive. Don't forget that Pac won just as decisively against 2 top WW's.

BULL****. Freddie Roach rejected Mosley twice. So your last sentence is an understatement. FLoyd decisively beat the number 1 welterweight, not the number 2 guy. Not the guy who had trouble in his last fight. Not the guy who got knocked out 2 fights before (Hatton) in his last fight. But knowing how Freddie Roach does, he won't have any problem getting Pacquiao to fight Mosley now. After he (Mosley) is already softened up, Pacquiao might knock him out, and they can rant about how Manny KO'd a guy that Mayweather took the distance. LMAO You think Pacquaio would fight Mosley, if Mayweather didn't lay the blueprint down.

Mayweather can dictate nothing, he lucked into the Shane fight because of an earthquake. Everyone is emotional after his win against Mosley, but it does not change the dynamics of business. Floyd depends on his opponent's big name to do business. Pac does not as he proved in the Clottey fight which did massive business.

Mayweather does not have that killer instinct for some reason...all Floyd had to do was breath on Mosley at times and he would have fallen over. Instead he let it go to a decision on purpose, just like he did against Marquez.

Shane let Mayweather off the hook in the first two rounds, Pac would not do that.

snake, you dont know what your talking about. floyd opponet depends on him for the big pay day. shane has NEVER been knocked out(like pac) and did pac knock jmm out? and 700k in ppv sales is not massive business. DONT HATE!

If Floyd would have fought Margarito and Cotto back then I
think they would have got the business worse than Mosley
did last night. I always laughed when people said Floyd ducked
Cotto and Margarito! Hialrious to say the least. Cotto barely
beat Mosley with Jack as his trainer. Margarito got stomped
by Shane with ****m in his corner. Floyd dominates Mosely
with ****m in his corner. Like I said, I NEVER thought Cotto
and Margarito was good enough to have a fighter like Floyd
duck them. Respect to Cotto for letting it hang and no
props for Margarito's attempt to deceive and cheat. Mosley
was a tough fight for one and beat the other and Floyd toyed
with Shane after awhile. Manny Pacquiao is in a tough situation.
Either agree to floyd terms of random testing or be labeled as
a ducker and a possibly enhancement user. That's not me
talking from a personal aspect but from an overall one. Manny
made his bed and now has to lie in it! He gave up all of his
negotiation power by listening to the bitter old Bob Arum and
fighting Clottey instead of Floyd. WRONG MOVE & BAD BUSINESS
DECISION.

Bitterness and Jealousy towards the p4p king , pac. Theres a lot of that going around. Look at the Jeaous man's face

[mrjoeblive]

Once I saw the fighters put on the gloves 10oz grants, I thought Floyd by UD. I was impressed with Floyd. He is definitely top 2 in the sport p4p. With 10oz gloves he beats Pac. With 8oz who knows maybe Pac can get to him and hurt him. Floyd should be thinking of moving up in weight and fighting SERGIO FOR THE MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLE. HE WOULD HAVE A VERY GOOD SHOT. I STILL DON'T LIKE HIS STYLE BUT HE IS A VERY VERY VERY GOOD FIGHTER.

solley, floyd makes veryone look bad. he takes away their assets and then abuses them. shane was the one on his bike. floyd stayed in the niddle of the ring and took the fight to shane. he didnt run like you predicted. but at least you are giving floyd his props.

mayweather doesn't dictate ****. its this kinda attitude that is gonna kill the fight before negotiations even begin.

lol the fight was killed last night when mayweather dominated mosley. after watching that pac might go ahead and announce his retirement win or lose the election.

[GRUSTLER]

Let me get this straight......

Manny Pacquiao picks Shane Mosley to win over Floyd Mayweather Jr,
correct? Floyd Mayweather Jr dominates Shane Mosley, Pac watches
the fight and says "I don't want to agree to 14 day cut off because
Floyd is bigger and I'm smaller"? That sounds like a cop out after
witnessing what Floyd did to Mosley.

[switchsouthpaw]

If Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao decide to come together to negotiate a possible fight - Golden Boy President Oscar De La Hoya says it's Mayweather who will dictate the terms of the fight. The two boxers tried to make a deal earlier this year. They agreed to a 50-50 split on the money and the two appeared to be in agreement on just about everything else - except the terms for the random Olympic-style drug tests. [Click Here To Read More]

This fight isn't going to to happen, time to move on to some other names, PWill or Martinez.

[GRUSTLER]

After witnessing what Shane did to Margarito and now what
Floyd did to Mosley. You should not be fronting on Mayweather Jr.
Shouldn't even try to.
