Comments Thread For: Team Pacquiao Not Confident: Mayweather Fight in Doubt

[English puncher]

I honestly think the irony in this is that mayweather always talks **** about his opposition, but wont even say pacs name in interviews etc, I dont think that the 2nd round against mosley did him any good, he's probably thinking if pac catches me im going to sleep...I think mayweather is an exceptional boxer, but I dont see him going more than 7 rounds with manny, i really dont..to me he's already been tamed! if the fight dont happen, in my eyes manny is the winner!

The thing that doesn't sit well with me is that Team Pac keeps
talking about their options but are acting like their really adament
about making the fight happen. I can understand once saying,
"If Floyd won't sign the contract then we move on" but in all the
Floyd fight interviews Team Pac keeps talking about Margarito
and Cotto like their promoting their fighters too. It's good to have
plan B's and C's but don't continue to mention it in the media like
that is going to help Floyd make his mind up.

I will say this if the fight doesn't get made, and within a week they have a fight signed with Cotto or Marg, I will ifnd it very hard to believe that they had any intentions to make the fight happen.

I feel exactly the same. If this fight does not happen, based on how this negotiations has transpired and considering what each fighter has said all along, it appears that Manny is the more willing fighter, while Floyd has been all talk and all ducking throughout. If it never happens, it does make me feel that Manny would have won the fight. PEACE!

WHO was the cause of the fight not happening in March again?

FLOYD is the cause of the fight not happening by instigating demands which are not part of the rules which is being given by the state commission. How many boxers today are demanding that ****? NONE, only floyd because of his FEAR, have you ever heard of sergio or p will saying take an OSDT sergio or vice versa? blaming it on the PACMAN is what only *****'s do. FACT is no one is asking for that OSDT **** except for PBF.

Arum and suck-ass Koncz are so full of ****. Trying to make people believe that Mayweather is the one not wanting the fight!!!! Sign the contract???? Does it say, Manny will test for drugs? Cause I'm sure the 10 million dollar fine for every pound Floyd's overweight is stated clearly in "the contract". TEST PACQUIAO, AGREE TO THE TEST. And the fight will happen!!!! FLOYD ain't scare of you!!!! Manny, Roach, Arum, and all of Top Rank are the ones who don't want Manny to get his ass beat by Floyd... But want fans to think that Floyd is ducking!!!! Sick ass ****!!!!

How long does it take for Mayweather to read a friggin' contract and say that the terms are not acceptable to him? If there is anything there that is unacceptable to him, why not throw the contract back in Arum's face? If he really wanted the fight to happen, why not reiterate his terms so that the public knows where he stands?

The simple fact of the matter is that Mayweather's lack of immediate response to the proposed contract either shows a lack of interest in fighting Pacquiao or his implicit agreement to the terms of the proposal, and that he is just making all of us wait like the primadonna he is.

Floyd is the only clown I see and you dudes want to blame Pac for something. In all of boxing only two guys have ever gone through that drug testing crap, Floyd and Mosley..because Floyd made him go through it for the payday.

Floyd won't make anyone else go through it and only made Mosley go through it because he thought Pac would not agree to the testing...I'm sure he did agree because that was the main holdup in the negaotiations last time. May then makes it about the money, so lopsided that he knew Pac would never agree to the terms. Now it is about taxes and Roger going to court (well, if dude wasn't such a loser to beat women, he would not be in this prediciment in the first place).

I thought Floyd was already super rich, hence Floyd "MONEY" Mayweather? I thought Mayweather Sr. was his trainer since he was a little kid and trained him for years, why can't he step in for Roger?

Ya'll blame who you want for the fight not happening but you know the blame falls on the shoulders of Floyd "Fake" Mayweather....what a joke

Bob Arum is playing the media and alot of uninformed fans like a fiddle.

The real question is, "who is the only fighter that would refuse a drug test?" a fighter that's cheating and doesn't want to be caught. Even for $50 million? How 14 days no good in Jan? Then Mayweather says no more concessions on drug testing, then 14 days is ok? Manny keeps the fight just out of reach.

What? They gave him a contract and over a month to agree to it or disagree to it. You do realize that for a huge PPV event to generate enough money to warrant all the money put up to even hold it in the first place, there needs to be MONTHS of advertising and promotional tours and media days beforehand. The fighters also need to have an extensive training camp as well and they already have a date set aside for November 13.

All Floyd has to say is the contract is crap or something and they can work out the issues but if he says nothing at all, who is to blame: the guys proceeding with a plan B or the guys not making any attempt to even go with plan A?

Floyd's fault man, plain as day
