Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao Negotiations To Begin This Week

[icebergisonfire]

[SIZE="4"]Every boxer has a casual fan base. I have several co-workers that are completely casual boxing fans and haven't followed boxing since Tyson but yet they are huge fans of Mayweather and only Mayweather. My point is that you will always have those fans and those type of fans you'll get rid off but there are more die-hard boxing fans than those type of fans. So if you're going to ask this question you should also ask what would the Floyd fans do when Manny finally embarrass and obliterates Gayweather off the boxing scene.[/SIZE]

I'm not a drug user so thoughts like this have never entered my mind.

I cant wait til Floyd gets rid of this fighter and his fan base.

Atleast he has a fanbase, unlike Pwill.

You seriously think Pacquiao will lose his fanbase just because he loses a fight?

[Anabolism]

here we go AGAIN....

[amayseng]

mayweather like him or not is right about random blood and drug tests in boxing because it's different to other sports your health and life is on the line mayweather accepted pacquiao's demands the 8oz gloves 50/50 purse split even though floyd got better ppv numbers on the same 3 opponents he also accepted the ****** $10million dollar fine for every pound over weight but pacquiao can't accept a test which mayweather is going to take as well for a $40million dollar fight only people who do that are people who got something to hide i hope this fight get's done so money mayweather can beat pacquiao and hopefully these *******s will be gone because their are fans of pacquiao not fans of the sport of boxing

at 147 you wear 8oz
50-50 should always be the split, both guys have a good fan base to bring in the dough

10 mil over every pound is understandable because of how floyd came in over with jmm.....although it wont be a problem, he was on point for the mosley fight, no probs.

we just need this fight to happen.

hopefully a legit and fair cutoff date will be agreed upon.

if it doesnt happen there is no one out there to give floyd a run for his money, other than prob sergio at 154

floyd mayweathers request to have o.s.t initially made people think he was avoiding pacman or just being paranoid but, as time has moved on many of us feel that pacman is on something.
why does he not just take the test? has anyone noticed that the pacman camp are no longer using the "superstition" excuse? or the "floyd dont own boxing" routine.
the only remaining excuse seems to be that the loss of a microscopic amount of blood taken 14 days prior to the fight would drain him phisically or mentally????? what? are we really believing this stuff? olympians do not make these excuses do they?
they should poll every fighter to see if they woud be prepared to accept a 14 day cut off for a blood test as part of a new world wide rule.
i think we already know the answer, they would and pacman would retire.
shane mosley and floyd both took the test without any problem or excuse from shane especially after the defeat.
then theres the money, the green, the ole spondoolies!
a political campaign for a seat in congress must cost an absolute fortune, who is paying for that? he will need the money sooner or later and to turn down 40 million dollars+ and offer no proven excuse or reason is nothing short of what pacman is really about here.......politicians are liars by nature and he looks like the one who is really scared, not floyd.
its rediculous, and to turn to "cheatahrito" as a plan b fight! well, this fellah is a good fighter but floyd is(and its proven) an elite fighter.
to be the best you gotta fight the best, floyd is unbeaten and manny is not.
if mannys team say he has fought a better level of opponent then they would be wrong....why? because they may be fighting margharito instead.
thats odd.... because floyd just beat the man that knocked him out and just like the marquez win, it was f.u.k.i.n easy and i dont hear them sayin mosley was smaller than him.
one thing is for sure, floyd has eliminated this talk that he only fights smaller men and pacman needs to do the same......prove hes not on drugs by taking the test.

[amayseng]

Mayweathers gonna say, "*** a cut off date... all in take it our leave it." Pacs gonna say,"You dont run **** ova hea." And then we'll get another top rank fighter fighting in the middle of the cowboys stadium during football season.

agreed, unfortunately this is the most probable outcome

actually the NSAC prohibits 8oz gloves unless both parties agree to wear them......Why do they have to change NSAC's original ruling on it.

[Ray*]

Until a fight has been signed **** both fighters.

He won't lose to Maweather. He'll **** him out within 6 rounds!!!!

no the rules are 100z glvoes for 147 and if you come in vioerweight the commission has their own rules for that so none of those are jusify by anything if manny wants to make changes to the commission rules that benefit him why cant floyd addd something that will help the sport...now do i think he was doing ti for the sport no lol but does it help the sport yes it does i think he did it because he thinks manny is on soemthing and dosnt want him toc ome in dirty which he has every right to protect himself if someoen is dirty he jsut says for the sport because it will get more people behind him
