    QUESTION: If MAYWEATHER doesn't fight this year, why does PACQUIAO have to?

    I keep seeing Arum saying that Floyd may not want to fight this year, and that they could do the fight next year. OK, fine. Makes sense. No hassles.

    But why does Arum keep pressing for a Pac fight against another opponent? Pac has been on a much busier schedule, he has more money than God, he is younger and both Pac and Floyd would be coming off the same period of inactivity.

    Plus, Pacquiao is presumably busy and challenged with his Congressional seat. He does have a political schedule....right?

    Perhaps someone can educate me. Maybe a Filipino who is more knowledgeable about the process and schedule of a congressman.

    Can't both Floyd and Manny just take time off and do the fight in March, 2011?

      I'm sure they (pac/arum/et al) would love to make more money rather than wait the rest of the year.

          What?

          Hmm............

          I guess Pac should just sit out for the rest of the year....

          Matter of fact 2 fights a year? That is too many fights for elite fighters... Lets have all of out elite fighters fight once a year... Yea that makes sense.

                And This.

                I think Arum is fine fighting floyd for next year because then it would make sense for him(more money). I just hope Arum sees the fight before he dies. lol sorry but thats the truth.

                  I'm not saying there's anything "wrong" with it. But there seem t be no good other options for Pac.

                  Cotto can't beat manny. Freddie said that publicly.
                  Margarito is a cheater and he has no license.
                  Bradley is viable.

                  Why can't Manny take the rest of the year off and just attend to the political issues in Sarangani?

                  Is it OK for a Congressman to miss months at a time from his duties?
