    again, thats bull****. they reason why mention floyd at all and call him things such as coward, *****, etc, is because he refuses to fight manny.. And YES, they mention MANNY PACQUAIO when discussing floyd. They're intertwined.

    so does that also makes manny bigger than the sport since he's mentioned. Isnt that an illogical and ****ed up way of thinking? im wasting my time arguing with the guy that thinks floyd is bigger than teh sport of boxing simply because ESPN calls him a coward.
    On PTI the day before they mentioned pac barely. they talked more about floyd being a chicken then they did manny or the fight. If it makes you feel better I'll say it like this: this fight is bigger than boxing itself. Are you ok with that?

    As to my thinking, I've likely been watching boxing longer than you! Respectfully, I think I can gauge when someone is bigger than the sport you may not agree but you don't have to.

    Ali, leonard, Tyson, ODH and now floyd have all been bigger than the sport in this country. Their contemporaries, frazier, hearns, hagler (my alltime favorite) trinidad and manny IMO are not. If you disagree thats fine.

      Dunn is a cool dude you can talk sense in him. Shogunn as well has good inputs.

      You guys should call it flaps and don't ever get to the Floyd stan level, which I know you both are far from.
      I agree. The fact that dunn took time multiple of times to clear up his quotes, rather than just spewing the same nonsense over and over again and to resort to name calling, shows he is not a stan.

        After last night I lost a lot of respect for most the posters on here. Its crazy what lengths people will go to to blindly defend a fighter.

          floyd fans was so happy that the fight never made because they know that if people will match pac and floyd in a fantasy fight floyd will win. LOL.....

            Right, people fail to realize that this is not being shown on Pac tv or Mayweather movie channel, HBO is going to air it, put up the dough for the 24-7, and help promote this thing. MGM is going to hype the crap out of it and this entire thing is going to take months to properly promote and the longer they wait, the worse the PPV will do.

            Why do people even think that the broadcasters have schedules and set matches up? They need to get something done in agreement, it's not "I'll fight when I'm good and ready"

              *****s don't really want the fight. that's why they give floyd every and any reason to duck the fight. these ***** apologists always got a reason why the fight can't happen.

                that's what I want to believe, it is either they will be fighting November or its already set for next year, I dont have a problem with either scenarios, but some type of acknowledgment must be made from both sides...

                  Mayweather's a control freak

                  Knew he wouldnt agree to the fight, he has to be in charge of every little detail and thing that he's involved with, Pacquiao i feel would have destroyed him though and he will now probably fight a bum at a lighter weight or someone washed up like he did with Mosley, Marquez. Pacquiao vs Bradley or Alexander would be interesting

                    Mayweather compromised the first time with the 14 day cut off offer and Pacquiao refused on principle; Pacquiao didn't try to make the fight happen.

                    Pacquiao compromised on the 14 day cut off now and Mayweather refused on principle. Mayweather didn't try to make the fight happen.

                    1-1

                    To anyone who can see this and still wants to argue for one and not the other, it pretty much a "pot calling the kettle black" situation. one cannot be acceptable without the other being as well, unfortunately more often then not *******s and *****s hold the other to a different standard, which is total bull**** in my honest opinion.

                      I hope not. I want the fight this year. Next year people will not give a f#ck unless they both choose not to fight this year.
