It's Floyd's fault that Pac HAD to fight Margarito. It's also Floyd's fault that Manny is obligated to fight Shane because Shane is the #1 contender at this time. Floyd forces Pac to fight the best competition available. Pac is so dreamy.

using floyd as an excuse for a bull**** fight

Pacquiao will adapt his style to Mosley's hugging style. Early prediction Pacquiao wil KO Mosley or brutal stoppage.

Apparently Marquez's side did ask for DOUBLE what they got for the Mayweather fight!! They are just disguising it as a "buyout"!! Typical semantics!!

ESPN article - Dan Rafael:

Arum, who has a clear preference to make the Mosley fight, claimed that Marquez (52-5-1, 38 KOs) had asked for double what he made to fight Mayweather, which was a guarantee of $3.2 million. Schaefer disputed that.

"That's not correct," he said. "But this deal would be a buyout, so whatever Marquez's side gets has to include Golden Boy. So you can't compare it with what Marquez got paid against Mayweather because we have to get paid too. For the Mayweather fight, we were the promoter. This fight would be Top Rank, so they asked us for a number to buy us out. Hey, if they want to do a percentage deal I'm willing to do that and the guarantee would be much lower.

"So you want to buy me out, there's a number for Marquez and a number for Golden Boy."

Golden Boy has every right to ask for a "buyout" just as long as they acknowledge that wanting to get paid for DOING NOTHING is the reason why Pacquiao-Marquez III is not happening!!!

People need to lay off floyd, he doens't want none, he never has. Let the man enjoy his life, if he don't want pac's name on his resume, I'm cool with that. As long as he doesn't yap about being the GOAT I'm fine with him fadeing off into the sunset. Lets focus on fighters that matter

[Easy-E]

lol if Mosley, who lost 11 rounds against Mayweather and then drew with Sergio Mora, is your best option, you have done something wrong.

How many times will Manny fight Floyd's leftovers?

What ?

Every single time, possibly without exception, that you are asked, or choose to answer a question about Manny..... you bring up Mayweather ?

PAC don't doesn't fight FLOYD leftovers.

PAC fights FLOYD leftovers? FLOYD was too scared to fight MARGARITO back in 07, too chicken **** to fight COTTO in 08.. come to think of it.. FLOYD fought PACs left over... Juan Manuel Marquez..
