That was like the media asking Kobe about where he think LeBron will sign...
Nope. Different circumstances. Manny/Floyd were planned to have fought before 1st round of negotiations fell apart. 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.
They dont take shots at each other because we know who would win. Lebron cant say a thing until he gets at least a couple rings. Kobe is a Winner, Lebron is fun to watch.
Arum's and Roach's FIRST and most important reason for not fighting shane was THE MONEY WASN'T THERE! Shane was begging for a fight after Cotto beat him. How the heck does he deserve a Pacquiao fight at that point?
Miguel Cotto, the guy who beat Mosley, had a much bigger PPV draw and was available (and coming off a victory over Joshua Clottey).
There's absolutely no denying that had Manny fought the Shane that came in to fight on May 1st (38+ yrs old, inactive 1.5 years), Pac would've sent him immediately into retirement....and quite possibly into a coma.

And the most important thing. Manny himself said he actually wanted to fight Mosley. Hell, even wanted to fight Marg before Mosley beat his ass. Some dudes on here is funny..

Maybe he would have lost? Boxing is different than most sports. To know the outcome of a fight, the fight has to happen. You an also say that Mosley whoops Pacquiao. You never know until the fight happens.
