You can call them on their bull**** and not defend that crap instead of trying to turn it around on Floyd like you tried to do with your first post in this thread.Comment

I am not making excuses but maybe Pac deserved an easy fight. Yeah he dominated all of his opponents since moving up to lightweight. But at ww and jr. mw, he took some hits too. In an interview, Pac said his body still aches after 2-3 days after the fight. Margarito, while slow, is no pushover. Forgot what round, Margarito hurt him to the body and i though Pac was going down.
Pac said he has 3 more years left and if it is true, so there is still plenty of time to face more credible opponents.Comment

Also remember gentlemen. This is playing perfectly for Bob Arum, because since he did that horrid deadline garbage with Mayweather which Mayweather had alot of things going on during that period(His trainer on trial etcetc) which was basically the first terms on a 50/50 split even though Mayweather just come off a win against Mosley providing 70mill+ in PPV revenue. They still wanted the 50/50 split. I don't know about you, but at this point if I was Mayweather I'd figure I'm the bigger draw and ask for a 60/40 split, but hey that's just me.
Now the media hyped into this and made Mayweather the "ducker" so Pacquiao basically became more famous. Thus increasing his popularity and PPV buys. This is perfect for Arum because he has YOU fans in the palm of his hand. He knows he can make millions fighting anyone. In this case It's Shane Mosley a guy coming off 2 bad performances. People are saying they'll boycott now, but just wait until the HBO hype train rolls in people will actually think Mosley will have a legitimate chance. So then you'll order the fight because they'll make it seem Pacquiao will lose so they're making it seem as an "historic" event.
Bob Arum is a scumbag and he's ruining the fight, if you can't see it then I suggest you take a few business courses.Comment

For me, it doesn't have to be Floyd, just a worthy opponent who doesn't have a past of being beat up brutally before they face him. Mosley, JMM, or Berto (not ready) are not worthy opponents IMO.Comment
