    Not only will that fight help silence some of his critics, but it'll also help make his potential fight with Manny that much bigger. As oppose to Manny, who thinks it such a good idea to fight someone boxing fans have left behind, which is what has scared away a lot of boxing fans from the whole Manny/Floyd BS anyway.

    How about we see who he chooses before we assume he's ducking Pacquiao, as oppose to just making us fans wait.
    floyd will never fight another al haymon boxer

      But, regardless.. that seems to be the decision they made.
      yes. being that silent hurt him.

      we are only getting one side.

      its kinda like when you and your brother breaks something in the house. if you keep talking about how none of it is your fault, your brother did it, and your brother kept his mouth shut, your parents are gonna assume your brother did it.

      but all your brother has to do is call your bull****....

        I dont know
        why dont you call them and ask them?
        We can only speculate as to why
        but maybe bob isnt telling the truth
        maybe there is a possibility that bob told him this is what manny will agree to
        NO OST
        No Random testing
        50/50 split

        so may just said *** it they dont want anything serious and moved on

        fact is that May will make his $20+million fighting anyone
        and at the end that is all he cares about
        sad but true

            2. SEVERAL quotes from both Pac and Arum in regards to them both wanting a Nov 13th showdown with Floyd?

            This is where you and other Manny fans get stuck. Lets just leave floyd out of it and decide whci top rank story you believe Bob/Tony or Bob/Manny?
            Margarito were promised the fight, if, as in if ever the fight with floyd didnt push through. Floyd was always the 1st choice. And the catchweight thing, margarito and manny fighting at 150 is just for the belt, margarito is a career welter anyway so in reality both of them are fighting above their usual fighting weight, margarito has an advantage actually.

                Give me a ****ing break.

                How can anyone believe that Mayweather actually wants OST for the good of the sport when he was willing to bend the requirements for the first fight to allow 14 day cut-off?

                I agree that Manny was spineless for not accepting the ridiculous request, but Floyd is just as spineless for making the ridiculous request in the first place.

                In the end, both are cowards, and both engaged in a pissing match...and now the fans are the ones punished because their egos are too big to make the fight happen.

                  going on vacation then suddenly coming back is more a ***** move than refusing testing no one else in boxing has to go through

                    If you can ask that question then you aren't very bright.

                      That's true. Those who go on vacation usually just stay on vacation.

                      This site gets dumber each day.
