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

Bull****. Call me when Floyd, Ellerbe, Roger or Haymon make an offical statement.

All we have is Arum's side.

Exactly. I have not seen anything where both sides have said that everything is agreed upon. All we hear is Arum talking. And Arum is not the most trustworthy guy.

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.

WILLIAMS, BERTO, COTTO, MARTINEZ at 154, PACQUIAO of course, CLOTTEY, MARGACHEETO? I would say Williams and Martinez but, he will get little credit from beating Pac. Excuses will come down like rain. Berto is green as hell, Clottey and Cheato...come on. Martinez at 154 pushes his greatness. Williams at 147 does too. People say the next guy the media says he should fight will prove this or that. "Gatti" he never faced anyone with a heart like him, Zab someone with the same athletic ability. Balomir and yes people where saying he was afraid of him "The real champ at 147" it doesnt matter. Just like it doesn't matter who Pac faced. People will always shoot down the work you do and not appreciate it until you are gone.

Excellent post and very true. Floyd has been dodging people for years and the boxing world knows it. That's why Pac got FOTD and not Floyd.

I really do hope this fight is made as the world wants to see it. I just can't help thinking there's yet another excuse gonna come from the Mayweather camp to avoid fighting. I wouldn't be surprised if Floyd retires now knowing Pac will quit soon to concentrate on politics, then he'll come back and fight Malignaggi or some other washed up bum fighting out of his weight class!

Come on Floyd....it's time to man up!

[Mr.Smith]

This is somewhat true, but seriously when was the last time Mayweather said anything? If Arum is lying out his ass I'd like for someone from Mayweather's camp to call him out for it, because they should.

At the end of the day, unless he can show us why it isn't his fault, Mayweather comes out looking bad to most people because it looks to me and probably most people like he isn't even trying to make the fight right now.

There is a gag order to prevent **** like this from going on. How about Arum and Pacs Team just shut up unit the deadline of the negotiations have ran out. Then talk all the garbage you want. Their team has been really unprofessional but, then again they are working the general public like fools.

If that were the case and Arum was talking rubbish then surely the mayweather clan would release a statement saying so. They haven't and it's been in the news for over a week that the contract offer is with Floyd awaiting his approval. If that wasn't true it would have come out by now. Arum deserves some kudos too, he's one of the best promoters of all time and has staged some of the biggest fights. People saying he's not trustworthy is not fair at all......he's no Don King!!!

You guys know me, the most unbiased floyd fan on the planet, no excuses if he doesn't sign off on the bout we should all unite in bashing him.

You're saying Pac's team are unprofessional yet it's the Mayweathers that started all the finger pointing and accusing Pac of taing PEDs with no proof. Yeah.....very professional.

Hows Roger the professional trainer's court case coming along by the way? He battered a female boxer didn't he? What a great professional example he's setting!

I'm talking about the negotiations that are going on right now. They had the gag order to prevent the bs that was going on from both sides. Calm the hell down.
