      You're in no position to debate. If you can't retort, it's cool - I know you're an idiot anyway.

        I think you are smart enough to know this post is bull****. Manny fans want to blame floyd if it doesn't happen. All we are saying is fine we don't care. Manny will fight cotto/marg and the numbers will be disappointing. May will fight martinez and his numbers will be consistent. Then we are right back to square one.


        Dude, the same thing happened in March. Bob tried this already. It failed miserably, even with dan rafael, bert sugar, doug fischer, and other well known experts blaming floyd. Yet more people paid more money to see floyd fight as I expect they will this time around.

          But Mayweather never made an offer and never attempted to make an offer. From the beginning it was always Manny that kept pushing for this fight and have always the one that initiated the offer and the fight.

            Why don't you come back when you're a bit informed. I promise we can talk then.

              Fight for legacy... Not the hustle..

              I hate how FLOYD is moving BOXING toward a money issue instead of about fighters who wanted to take down other fighters and improve their legacy. A true FIGHTER would want to take down all boxers near the top because they know they are THAT GOOD and they got that confidence in them.

                If you think floyd is doing this then, respectfully, you are a biased idiot. remeber angelo dudndee saying he wanted to wait for leonard hearns until it got juicy? boxing is and always has been a business first. C'mon dude be real. this is a job!

                  Fact is, directly after the Mosley fight Mayweather said, "no cut off date". If Arum sent over a contract with a 50/50 split and 14 day cut off, Mayweather would be making the compromise by signing, which i believe he will, yet he's still getting **** for it. Some people refuse to see the truth and like to combine these 2 negotiations into one, which it isn't.

                  This fight will be made, and if it isn't and Pacquiao fights Marg or Cotto in Dubai, it's not going to ****ing sell anyways, and he'll be in a worse position come the next negotation. I find it funny how Arum isn't matching Pac up with fighters anymore, he matching him up with venues.

                    Okay, I respect that if fighters want to fight for money, they can. But how about this, FLOYD himself told the press that he can make 70 million with a 50/50 split vs PAC as compared to a 40 million profit with MARQUEZ. If he said those words, why don't he want to fight for that extra 30 million with a 50/50? Floyd contradicts himself.

                      Uhh I'm pretty sure we can agree floyd poppin **** is not official negotiating. Sorta like manny saying he only fights for legacy and pride then holding Hatton by the balls for 2%.

                      When they get down to business both sides have all the facts and they get to work.
