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

[Blue Heffner]

I've grown to think that the fight isn't going to happen. I just hate that Floyd is going to be the one that everyone blames, which is unfair.

So you found a way to dance around the question.

Let's try this again...Floyd has demands...Pac says yes..Floyd walks away...defensible or indefensible? Really simple grammar school level comprehension required here, simple YES or NO.

Run down what Floyd's demands are.

[xAUGUSTUSx]

Not bothered. I run into idiots all the time.

Idiots are people who ignor the facts like yourself.

No some floyd fans just don't care what Bob says. We saw this last time. It's floyd's fault he's a ducker etc etc. blah blah. Then 1.4 mil bought his fight. The truth is right in front of you. Adult fans paying their money don't give a **** what Bob says. They still buy floyd's fights regardless what him or rafael or bert sugar or doug fischer say.. Why?

because adults can read and make their own minds up. We know Bob is a liar. Why don't you?

Nothing much needs to be said...really.

i'm not arguing who makes more. i'm saying that their is no big time money opponents for both fighters other than pac fighting margarito. i don't think cotto vs pac 2 would sell big because he wants to see a rematch of a ass kicking. pac vs a mexican fighter would sell though. floyd isn't going to fight martinez unless he is willing to move up to 160, since martinez was stripped of his 154 title. both fighters are being put into a hole right now. Pac has 1 fight that could make him big money. floyd doesn't unless again he decides to fight martinez at 160

I know you are not. I'm using the numbers to point out manny needs floyd more. Manny vs Marg is not a big fight (given marg is still not lisceneced in the US b/c he cheated). Manny cotto 2 is not a big fight b/.c manny beat his a$$ last time decisively.

Run down what Floyd's demands are.

Why are you negotiating on his behalf? How is that relevant to my question? Pretend he wants the ring to be painted pink, whatever the case may be...Pac agrees to all of it. Mayweather still won't sign, now keep reading over the part where I state "Pac agrees to all of it", strictly hypothetical and Floyd says nah I don't feel like doing it, even if his demands were met...you support that?

[xAUGUSTUSx]

Like I said earlier. 300-400 pac fans, bob, dan rafael, bert sugar, doug fischer etc etc. can all blame floyd just like in March. And just like May floyd outdrew and outearned manny. Bob has gone down this road before. But making floyd look weaker doesn't make manny look stronger!

I don't care about all that BS you just said. Floyd's causing the fight not to be made period.

I agree with you 100%. Arum needs to be realistic. Manny NEEDS this fight with Floyd. Just looking at everything as a whole. Who is going to buy him versus Tony? Who is going to buy him from Cotto II? Not me..

Don't make me laugh. You're ****ing idiot if you think anything wrote was "fact."

[The Big Dunn]

Has nothing do to with what I asked, but great Arum is the devil.

Again, pretend Floyd's demands have been met (just suspend reality and pretend this is the case) , but he still won't sign...then what?

Then what I said. I know what you were saying. If floyd didn't sign I wouldn't care. I want to see them fight just as much as you. But I, like a lot of paying adults, will watch floyd WHOEVER he fights. And I, like some paying adults, will not order another manny vs. top rank flavor of the month fight.
