Comments Thread For: If Everything is Settled, Blame Mayweather For Fight Bust

[War Dinamita]

Where is Floyd? Why hasn't he signed? Why is he quiet?

Why does Arum keep negotiating through the media for all his fights? Why does he continue to negotiate with his own fighters for a fight with Manny? If he really wanted to get this fight done now, he wouldn't be negotiating through the media like they agreed to last year and he wouldn't be telling the world about his plans for Manny to fight Cotto or Margacheato. What happened to the gag order from both sides? Why do we continue to hear something new from every member in Pac's team? A real professional doesn't go around talking **** in the media and negotiating in the media.

Floyd already told them months ago he was not going to sign a contract unless he got a bigger split of the purse and Manny agrees to no cut off date for the testing. No point in giving him a bull**** offer.

I concur with your post.

I agree with this article until further notice. Meaning until we hear from the MAYWEATHER camp. One thing I do disagree with is calling MAYWEATHER an ALL-TIME GREAT. Based on what? He's a HALL OF FAMER but ALL-TIME GREAT is a little far fetched in my opinion. I mean, you have to take risks to be great. MAYWEATHER has done everything except that so I don't mention him with the LEONARDS, ALIS, DURANS, HAGLERS, HEARNS, HOLYFIELDS, CHAVEZS.......you guys get where I'm going. This guy is scared to death of losing! I can't think of any other reason he would duck an era full of quality opposition. It's not like when TYSON was heavyweight champ or HOLMES for 8yrs. and didn't have anyone to dance with. There are plenty of fighters that would make him an ALL-TIME GREAT if he'd be willing to take the risk. WILLIAMS, BERTO, COTTO, MARTINEZ at 154, PACQUIAO of course, CLOTTEY, MARGACHEETO, BUT HE NEVER WILL. Sorry L.F. GOOD read other than that.

P.S. If anyone is an ALL-TIME great It's MANNY PACQUIAO. The fact that he'll fight anybody, the amount of blood, sweat, and tears he's shed in his career, His learning curve over the last 4years, and his resume'. This guy doesn't have to fight anymore, yet he still insists on matching his PRIDE and SKILLS and competitve nature against the biggest and baddest fighter he can find. That's how you become great. He fights for respect, pride, competition, and LEGACY before he even thinks about how much money he's going to make on a fight. PAUL WILLIAMS, ANDRE BERTO, TIMOTHY BRADLEY, MIGUEL COTTO, SERGIO MARTINEZ, ANDRE WARD, are a few more who'll fight anybody, any time, any place.

y does pac need to sign when his team is the one who offered it...of course he will sign it

Manny later said he wanted a 50/50 split after Arum said the fight was a done deal.

Dude is an idiot.

Yeah, they agreed to a contract that is no longer on the table. The contract wasn't good enough for them a few months ago, but now they want the same contract when Floyd sold more than Manny.

Come talk to me when Manny accepts 60-40 split in favor for Floyd and mans up by taking OSDT with no cut off. Take the test if you have nothing to hide. Why is everyone else willing to take the test except for Manny?

Seriously get over it already.... Just tell Floyd his phone has been ringing and NO EXCUSE will justify him NOT WANTING THIS FIGHT.. NONE..

I don't hate Floyd, i used to be a big fan of his at the lower weights. He moved up to 147 and turned into a complete twat, changed his name to "Money" calls himself the greatest but wont fight the best to back up his boasts. Sorry but he lost me as a fan 5 years ago.

For guy who loss interest 5 years ago you can't seem to go one or two comments without talkin about the dude.

We got it. You don't like him.

Let it go.

Seriously I be looking at a thread about Perez or Angulo and here comes a comment from sgt about Floyd that has nothing to do with the subject.

Why don't you just Sig I don't like Floyd and list the reasons so we can stop the broken record that is you.

Expand your horizons.

People are fed up with Floyd's demands and excuses. Everyone wants this fight to happen apart from Floyd. Get over your bull****, you sound as bad as him ffs.

You don't know **** about boxing and you're a hater if you don't think the best boxer from this era is an ATG.

Stop saying Manny is willing to fight anyone because he ducked Williams, Martinez, Floyd, and openly ducked Mosley.

[Franco2012]

Its all Gayweathers fault,period!
