Comments Thread For: HBO Pres Unsure Why Mayweather Turned Pacquiao Down

[dan-b]

I don't understand how people say Floyd is ducking Pacquiao
when Pacquiao hasn't fought a black American fighter in his
whole pro boxing career. Not talking about Ledwaba. My take
on it is that their both ****ing up and need to make it happen.

Logout and hang yourself.

Not sure why would anyone would take their time and waste it arguing with this clown. He speaks in broad generalities, loses his way once you nail him down to specifics and his best retort is either some sarcastic; or a smiley face that emphasizes his mild to moderate ******ation. He's so caught up in his narrative of defending his cultural icon, that he picks a losing argument with anyone who disagrees with him. There are much more intelligent and educated posters on here, with less anger and insecurity, who have the ability to respond intelligently, without "smiley" faces and sarcasm befitting of a 5 year old kid with turrets.

Hopefully Floyd can tell us why he turned down Pacquiao.. Maybe one day.

He already told us- he's not thinking about boxing, on vacation, taking a couple of years off, doesn't have the urge to 'get up' and fight, and so on.

This is seriously the ******est excuse you guys have come up with and that's saying a lot

Floyd hasn't fought an Asian Filipino fighter in his whole boxing career. Pac has fought 2 Black fighters, and not only that- took on the biggest, blackest, toughest fighter at 147 in his last fight... so what are you saying really?

Fight would not have happened even if Manny agreed
to take a test after every round. Floyd's mind was just
not into fighting Pacquiao.

Greenburg, is either a totally gullible fkn idiot, or a lying deceitful ****bag.....
..... I haven't decided yet. And may never know for sure.

But, it is PLAINLY FKN OBVIOUS, that there was no second round of negotiations, so Greenburg is talking absolute rubbish. Either way, I have no respect for that cvnt.

Arm ****ed GBP around after initially indicating that he was working on a proposal, then made a ridiculous offer that was never taken seriously. Schaeffer stated that the offer was absurd, and even worse than the earlier offer that was rejected. GBP surmised that Arum had no interest in making the fight.

And anyone who can't see why..... $$$$$..... is also a gullible idiot.

BTW, I can categorically prove this, beyond any doubt.

I can prove that Bob Arum publicly stated on NUMEROUS occasions that he was PERSONALLY negotiating with GBP (remember the deadline Arum states that he gave GBP?)..... and I can also prove, beyond any doubt, from Arum's own mouth, that he was forced to PUBLICLY admit that neither he nor Greenburg, ever actually spoke with GBP regarding a potential Mayweather bout.

It was a "clayton's" proposal, that Arum knew would never be taken seriously, which is why the two parties never actually met. Arum knew that it would be rejected immediately, and he left no options for negotiation.

Which left him free to continue with the in-house Manny-milking.

Greenburg is a deceitful lying ****bag, he must know whats going on, because he could not be that much of an idiot.

Why would Greenburg suddenly do an about face regarding Mayweather, when he stands to make the most money with him, rather than anyone else? That theory doesn't make sense. Greenburg's job is to be profitable, not have an agenda.

Simple , Pac is trying to duck completely or in the least trying water down a test designed to stop cheating ,,, fancy that , and for icing on Pacs little cake , he fights a cheat in Texas where they dont drug test , lol , *** of out here with your bull**** !!

Drug Test Timing

When athletes know when a drug test will occur, they can prepare for it and thereby neutralize the effects of drug testing on the use of performance enhancing drugs and/or masking agents. Year-round short-notice and no-notice testing are the most effective means to curtail the use of training drugs because they make athletes always at risk to be tested. Sports have recently begun to invest in this type of testing despite the high cost and difficulty in administration. Some countries claim to have achieved no-notice testing. The IAAF and international federations for swimming and weightlifting conduct year-round, short-notice testing. In the United States, the NCAA and the National Football League (NFL) have short-notice (1-2 days) programs, and the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) has approved the implementation of a no-notice program.

This isn't about a race, but many here simply support Floyd out of some cultural identification. Paul Williams has even gone on record calling Floyd a ducker, whoever brings up race as an excuse is a loser in a game called life. Floyd has a formula and he's happy with it. Minimal risk for maximum dollar, that only inspires people in the hood, outside of that small enclave people think he's a ducker.

I think Floyd came back to settle financial problems of his.
People think he came back to prove something. Now Floyd
wants to get out and doesn't know how to. I even suspect
that the whole Marquez called out Floyd thing was a script
written by GBP.
