    Neither Pac nor Floyd are "business men", they know what they want and tell their management handle the rest, if they can.

      roach speaks for manny all the time. he made the decision not to fight mosely, even at 142. he said so himself. why would he lie??? roach is definitely pac's match maker.

        so what?

        Floyd Sr. and Roger also have a huge say in who lil Floyd fights and doesn't fight.

        Floyd Sr. said - NO SOUTHPAWS, and Floyd hasn't faced one at WW since Judah

And no, LeBron might respect kobe, but Kobe doesn't like him at all. Kobe is very sneaky when he take shots at him. Kobe even took a shot at him when he won his first regular season MVP. I do agree that they respect each other, but they don't like each other.
          Put Kobe in that interview, with the reporter asking Kobe about Lebron, I don't see Kobe pulling what Floyd did in that interview. Straight up ignoring the questions 3 or 4 times. Dude couldn't even mention him once. But on 24/7.. he was talking that **** about Poochiao. Why?

            False. Bob and Todd run that ****..

            And even if you made any kind of sense, Floyd Sr. has stated that he don't want Floyd fighting Manny.. what does that say? Is Floyd ducking?

Floyd been talkin that big boy **** to Manny, so everybody wants to know what's good. Kobe/Lebron might end up in the finals if lebron can manage to lead his team to the promised land. Neither of them takin shots at each other like Floyd is.
              Not so much. Both guys were in the spotlight and focused on winning their events. It was their time and they had every rights to ignored the media trying to gave their Golden boys some spotlight shine.

                      I don't think Kobe would of ignored those questions, but he would still be an *******. It wasn't about Manny, Manny had his time when he fought Clottey. LeBron had his time when he quit on his team. But, it was Kobe's and Floyd's moments and they had every bit of rights to get the media to focused on them and their events.
