If Manny Pacquiao doesn't submit to full testing, we ain't got no fight.

No ands, ifs or buts. Oh...and no compromise on that.

I'll repeat the question again, why didn't Floyd and his camp proposed a counter offer. Regardless though, Floyd said that he doesn't want to fight Manny right now, period.

the mayweather camp is all messed up man this bussiness and they are ruining the momentum of the fight.they don't deserve the payday.

Oh, the echo game - cool! I'll answer again:

In the original negotiations didn't Floyd originally say that he wanted 60-40 and no cutoff date, no if ands, butts or compromises? Yet what did he do, he negotiated to 50-50 and 14 days. It's called High balling in negotiations, you ask for more than you want in order to get what you really require.

50/50, 14 days isn't a serious offer.

it isn't a serious offer? It was good enough last time though..
after that,
Pac beat Clottey
May beat Mosley
-both wins are criticized

Pac got the Fighter of the Decade Award
May got the ESPY Award

Some say May is now #1 p4p
Some stick to Pac as #1 p4p

Judging from this, i dont see a problem with 50/50..
Only thing stopping this fight from happening is whatever reason Floyd has for not accepting 14 days cutoff this time around...
Oh, and his vacation..

[amayseng]

I don't think so because he ate those and kept coming
being the aggressor so he pretty much showed what he
is made of. I do agree with you that it was/Is a bad decision
not to fight PAC this year. Would have been great to come
off a big win against Mosley and then fight Pac BUT hey! That's
me being a fan but Boxing as a sport has become too greedy.
Meaning promoters, boxers, etc...... too many people in the
sport looking to cash in. I do not agree to how Manny handled
the negotiations the first time and Floyd this time. Both
were and are lame approaches. By Pac/FLoyd not interested
in fighting the best and making big $'s doing it, sent a message
to all the up and comers that they could do it too and it is
really sad how guys like Berto, Bradley, Williams and Kahn
are talking like big shots but still can't show it in every aspect.
Floyd, I am let down by this decision but hey! a man going to
do what he needs to do BUT if Manny and Floyd don't give
a $#!t about fighting top guys then neither do I about them
fighting.

i totally respect floyd for coming forward after that round and dominating.

but lets be honest, he got rocked bad, legs buckled, head fuzzy, holding and reaching numerous times.

he was in a lot of trouble for those few minutes....

maybe that shook him a bit, shane is near 40 and no where as quick and prime as manny

ive said it 200 times, i think floyd beats manny, but it seems floyd just doesnt want the fight

how does he feel he is the GOAT but wont take out a guy who people say can beat him, actually has a good chance, and took floyds FIGHTER OF THE DECADE AWARD


fighters fight

Right on...

Money in May

Pac is simply not motivating enough for Floyd at the moment. He is so uninspired by how lopsided a beat down he will give him that he can wait until next May.
