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

[jetgeomcx]

I guess it's convienent for everyone to forget how Manny Pacquiao
blew the fight the first time when Floyd was ready, willing and able.
All Pac had to do was agree to the testing he has agreed to
now and the fight would have been past tense already. Floyd
is not an angel but some of the flack he gets is unwarranted and
this article proves it. I know that the writer is frustrated like we
all are about this fight not happening but the only ones you
can truly blame is Pac and Top Rank for turning negotiations into a
media circus. I mean, if Pac would have stayed adament about the
testing decision and didn't agree this time around then maybe you
could blame Floyd but the fact that he wants it now shows that Pac
had his nuts out on the table trying to be a hard ass in negotiations.
To add insult to injury, Arum was secretly setting up a fight with Clottey
while Team Mayweather was trying to iron out the deal with Team
Pacquiao AND Arum and Konz are still talking about plan B's and C's
like that is going to pressure Floyd into signing. Top Rank and Team
Pacquiao handled this all wrong from the beginning.

but why does floyd keep moving the goal??

[GRUSTLER]

if before it was pac fault..yeah now its pbf fault.

I think if Arum and Team Pacquiao just shut the hell up and
wait then it would be not as frustrating as it is now. The fact
that they keep talking it up makes it nothing but nonsense.
First it was about "WE don't need Mayweather" now it's "It's
up to him"? Which one is it? Better to keep quiet till the deal
is solidified.

Politics as usual unfortunately. On top of that, we don't even
know what was in the contract that Arum "claims" he sent over.
Top Rank and Golden Boy may agree but Floyd is the last say.
Hopefully he is just taking his time making them sweat and the
fight gets made.

I believe that Boxingscene is a Manny Pacquiao website only
when it comes to this negotiation. If it were me, then I would
atleast wait till we have word from both camps to drop article
after article. I know these stories are good for getting traffic
BUT it's all bull**** until Golden Boy or Team Mayweather says
something about it. Ever since this fight was supposed to happen
some months ago all we heard was from Team Pacquiao about nothing.
I think if Boxingscene really wants to put an interesting story up
then wait till Schaeffer or Team Mayweather talks because
we have been getting over information about nothing from
Arum and Team Pacquiao. Feels like a broken record.

LOL aren't we all waiting and waiting.

Only difference with you from the rest of the people who wait is you dig the past too much and guess what, none of those matter NOW!

[ncpitbull]

Like I said mate, none of those matter now.

Yeah it's a business, but ain't that Floyd's foremost acumen? Easy fight, easy payday, didn't he said that?

Wether Floyd deserves bigger coz he has the bigger PPV numbers or wether Pacquiao has the bigger fanbase outside US, none of those matter!

Both need each other to generate the biggest and richest fight in history, and that IMO is what makes 50/50 reasonable for most fans who don't ride Floyd's **** 24/7.

I try not to get caught up in all this purse split bull****, because I just want to see the fight. Pac may very well have more fans worldwide, he is well respected and liked. But the fact of the matter is that Mayweather generates more revenue. That is a fact.

The site's job is to generate traffic. There are so many Pac-diots that it only makes sense to create articles with little logic or reasoning. You know they eat that **** up

And I agree with you, and I never disputed that Floyd is the bigger PPV earner (check my post history). So what gives?

Besides, people who are obsessed in a man's PPV and money earnings is ****ing gay!

stop hating...foreman is way bigger than margarito..foreman is a natural 154 what marga is not.marga is skinner than foreman.

He is not way bigger than Margarito. Cotto to some looked stronger and bigger to some when he fought Yuri. He didn't say he was way bigger he said he was too tall which isn't true. Margarito has a longer reach so what is your rebuttal? Just say he moves to much because that's what it is.
