So, Manny could fight YOU and people should BUY IT ON PPV because it will be entertaining watching you get your head beat in?

Like YOU wouldn't take that payday....

Manny now is basically like Tyson. Every fighter wanted a payday against him!! And fans PAID to see Tyson fight all those bums after the second Holyfield fight!!

Pac-JMM is the most money making fight fr pac outside of mayweather.

[counterpunch]

At least whoever comes next for Pac, we will see him fight again a boxer, counterpuncher opponent and i think this what makes it interesting. My predictions, he should KO Marquez as early as possible or he may win but total exposure of his style in his part. Big percentage for Pac beating Mosley for a UD due to Mosley's lack of endurance but can score a slim upset for his counter knockout power. For Berto he should KO this guy as early like Marquez hoping that the chin is really weak or he'll be KO. But no matter what happens and whoever wins, I hope no one gets injured seriously coz we're lucky they're all here, that can entairtain us.

marquez vs diaz did only 200k

pac vs clottey did 700k, remember that 700k was entirely for pac, also it was pac coming off a huge win vs clottey

pac vs marquez wont do more than 800k imo its a one man show and the fight has nothing going for it at all

remember reason floyd did 1m vs him because he was coming off retirement

[AKATheMack]

If Pac is going to fight at 147, why is a 135 lb JMM an option who has never won a title at 147, never won a fight at 147 or even looked good the one time he did fight at 147?

Why is Mosley and option? His last fight was at 154, he's not ranked at 147 and he hasn't won a fight since January 2009. By the time Pac gets in the ring with him it will be well over 2 years since Mosley won a fight. Whats the problem with this picture? (besides Pac ducking him when he was #1 WW and coming off a KO victory).

Why are two out of the three names not elite at 147 or even elite anymore?

What's the rush anyway? Why is Bob on a race to get a fight made before the end of the year? Is he doing that count down/dead line thing with Mayweather (since he still has a court date and is on vacation) as if that was supposed to work last time around?

Again, Top Rank BETTER choose wisely.

Maybe because hes planning on returning April 16th. You know training camp and all that?

Pac-Shane does less than 700k
Pac-Berto does less than 650k

I understand your stance on these matters, I really do. I still have the old-school in me likewise.

But I am somewhere in-between. Sure this year, Pac has fought Clottey and Margarito, he is indeed milking-the-cow. I do feel mixed emotions on these.

But so did Mayweather and Marquez in their last 3 fights. Well Mayweather's two last fight with Marquez and Mosley were also a gimme-fight.

Thus I am kind of disgusted with boxing nowadays.

What were unquestioned - were their capabilities. It would only be to my own selfish reasons to see all of them in the same weight divisions, in their prime....and all into it in hard core boxing.

Imagine that. But along comes to play are the boxing promoters to make their buck. Lotsa bucks!

Ok at least we're not buying them all totally.

No, fighting Mosley wasn't quite milking the cow. That's the benefit of hindsight for you but ask Manny if he was willing to fight Mosley prior to Floyd doing it? Exactly.

[Boxing's Truth]

C'mon Manny, just come out publicly and say that you'll take full OST to fight Floyd. And if Floyd agrees to fight, then you can always back out of the fight with with some other genius excuse your clan comes up with.

And if Floyd still turns it down, then Pac and Tard Nation can celebrate from now til kingdom come knowing that Floyd is really scared.

GO AHEAD PAC!!! TRY IT, TEST FLOYD BY AGREEING TO THE FULL OST!!!!

[Boxing's Truth]

The reason why it was a huge fight when Floyd fought Mosely was because Mosely was considered the number 3 man in the divison under Floyd and Pac.

Mosely was the one that Floyd and Pac supposedly were ducking. Plus Mosely was coming of a crushing victory off of Margarito.

Now, is it going to be the same with a Pac/Mosley fight. Hell no!!! The people who will accept and buy this fight are predominately *******s. Now when Floyd fought Mosely, it was big.
