    Bradley hasn't even cleaned out his own division....

    GTFOH!!!!!!!
    Hey man don't kill the messenger. I'm telling you what the poll on Top Rank's webpage says. The fans have spoken and they don't want to see Pac v Marg.

        This is the objective Vito...so listen carefully:

        BOTH parties are at fault:

        Team May made no discernible effort to negotiate. No counter-offer, No "let's meet". No statements moving the process forward. They were arrogant and stubborn.

        Team Pac sent a proposal that they knew would be patently rejected. The 14day 50/50 offer was publicly taken off the table in February. They then started setting up their next fight before "their deadline". They were manipulative and deceptive.

          I know my options, thanks. Try not to confuse the issue. Pacquiao had better options but he knows his band of nuthuggers would fork over $60 to watch him get sworn in.

              it's been said countless times and most boxing fans knew Mayweather and team would run their mouth when team Pac announced next their opponent.

                  It is how boxing goes for the most part, I am interested to see what happeans going forward but what is happeaning now is is just filler atleast in realation to those guys.

                  This always seemed like the likely outcome though so atleast it wasn't suprising.

                      that's bull****...i don't think ross greenburg will let himself to be the middleman in the negotiation if the thinks his effort will just go to waste. they spent 8 weeks to try to make the fight...if floyd's camp didn't like the proposal from the beginning the negotiations shouldn't have lasted a week.
