Floyd Mayweather Never Had Intentions Of Fighting PAC

[letsgobrady]

arum worked out a tentative deal with floyd's people to have the fight either on march 13 or may 1.

freddie roach thought march 13 was too soon because of the damage cotto did to pac.

pac said **** it, ended up agreeing to march 13 anyway. bluff called. on to the next roadblock...

roach said that manny's next fight after the cotto fight was goin to be in march unless it was goin to be against floyd than he would need more time to train and would rather fight in may but manny didn't wanna fight in may so they decided to fight in march,floyd had no prblem with the dates it was manny and freddie

Roach said he remains uncertain if the fight has to be fought March 13 because of Pacquiao's planned run for a congressional seat in the Philippines in May. Arum and HBO, which will televise the bout, if it occurs, on pay-per-view, prefer a May 1 date.

Roach wants the later date too.

"March 13 is too fast a turnaround," said Roach. "Manny has a broken [right] eardrum" suffered in his Nov. 14 TKO victory over welterweight Miguel Cotto in Las Vegas. "I'd like to have more time. I hope the fight happens, yes, but I want us to be in the best possible shape."

wasn't their elections on May and Manny had to fight in March so he could campaign?

You're both right. The way I stated it is the way I remembered it, but I went back and looked up some articles, and the way I remembered it was wrong.

The real story:
Arum, HBO, and Team PBF agreed to have the fight on May 1. However, when Arum went to Pac with the offer, Pac said no because he would be campaigning for the elections which would take place on May 10. So Arum suggested March 13, which HBO and Floyd agreed to. Roach was against March 13, but Pac agreed to it, despite the short turnaround from the Cotto fight, since March 13 would not conflict with his campaign schedule.

I always remembered that Floyd used the March 13 date to bluff Pac, but it turns out I was wrong, I admit that.

Stop lying lol...

Not a lie, just a faulty recollection. I admit I was wrong. See above.

you are dumb, arent you? roach asked for the march date and also said that floyd wouldnt fight them in march. floyd wanted may. but floyd agreed to march b.c team pac and roach, insisted that they wanted to fight floyd in march.

most likely thinking that floyd still had alot of rust on him and wanted to take advantage of that

floyd called their bluff and pulled their card, you saw pac walk away didnt you?

I already admitted I was mistaken, sycomantz.

Roach didn't want March. He wanted May 1. Read the whole thread.

After that, go learn how to count to ten, decade boy.

LOL ***** can't handle the truth.

In my honest opinion, PAC was never in his plans when he decided to come back


i truly believe that Floyd felt Hatton was going to beat PAC...he came back during the buildup of that fight...there were even reports of him visiting the UK and mentioning a rematch



when PAC blew Hatton out of the water, the public's demands for a PAC-PBF fight became enormous...everyone was buzzing at the thought


when PAC destroyed Cotto, Floyd had to think fast to stall and he lucked out


Arum was so intent on holding a fight in Texas for his pal Jerry Jones and Floyd's reluctance to fight outside of Vegas quickly squashed any kind of re-negotiations



and now, when PAC has accepted the terms, Floyd has run out of excuses...thats why he decided to go on vacation



the only thing that will happen now is for PAC-Tony to be a big success to give Floyd that last out



after November, PAC will look back and think 'damn, in two fights i did over 2mil ppv buys AND i put OVER 100K people in a stadium'


50-50 will sound like a generous offer to give to Floyd...at which Floyd will ask for 60 or over



the final nail in the coffin...no fight

Floyd is a smart man and will only fight Pac if he gets in a crazy war with Marg or looks shot.

Hatton had flaws and looked bad VS cOLAZZO

Oscar was a tough one but also very clever because he was a promoter

JMM obviously at 147...

Mosley was a tricky one but after over a year lay off even though he was good vs marg, but marg was made for his style and had no wraps
