Let's take it back to last December, the negotiations were in full flow between Floyd and Pac, rumours even emeraged that the deal had been all but done, then information began to emerge that Floyd wanted Pac to do drugs tests and Pac wasn't for that, accusations went back and forth which created a lot of bitterness between the two camps and lead to Pac filing law suits,
In the end as we all know Arum and Pac decided to walk away from the fight and faced Clottey instead, leaving Floyd in limbo with no-one to fight, such was the lack of creditable opponants for Floyd that joke bouts against Mathew Hatton and Nate Campbell had gotten serious play in the media, but then tragedy struck in Haiti and Andre Berto had to pull out of his fight with Mosley, leaving the door open for Floyd to set up a mega fight between himself and Suger Shane,
Now it looks like the shoe is on the other foot, Pac is sceduled to fight in November and hasn't got any big names to face, he'll either have to fight Cotto again which probably wouldn't do well in PPV sales or face a convicted cheater in Margarito who's barely faught in years and still isn't a massive name in the public's eyes,
So what has Floyd done? he's let the negotiations go the distance, had Arum dreaming of those dollar bills thinking there was a chance of it happening and then hung them out to dry at the last minuet just like they did to him in December!!
, IT'S CALLED BEING SPITEFUL!!, when Floyd wanted the fight they ran away boasting about their huge fight with Clottey in the Dallas stadium and asked "who is Floyd gonna fight now?", the only difference today is Pac hasn't got a Mosley to turn to in November!!.
Disclaimer: Before *******s start crying with suggestions that i'm "making excuses for Floyd" please engage the one brain cell you have and try to comprend that i'm merely PUTTING THE FACTS TOGETHER and coming up with a conclusion.

HOW COULD FLOYD BE A COWARD IF HE ALREADY TRIED TO FIGHT PAC? it simply doesn't make sense, he already made millions in the Mosley fight so he can afford to be spiteful right now, next year the tone may change but today it's Pac who's desperate for a big name opponant, not Floyd.
