    Those rich middle-eastern oil tycoons would more than likely give them that type of purse for this fight.
    Mayflower is the only fighter who can do that.

    Manny would immediately be sued by Top Rank.

    He would then be dumped, and berated / abused by Bob Arum.

      To World-Class Athletes from most sporting codes, random blood tests are about as common as having a ****, and are completely harmless, unless you happen to be using steroids of course.

          It amuses me that there is an automatic inference that anybody who disses Manny must automatically love Floyd.

          Never been able to figure that one out, LOL.

          Your little Pac vs May war is absurd, and is completely irrelevant to me.

          I have noticed how that seems to p1ss-off a lot of Pac-fan's.

          Their standard " yes, but Floyd " excuse, is completely wasted on me, and they get slammed for using it

          Don't get me wrong dude, I first watched Mayweather before he turned pro, probably 15 years ago. His skills are undeniable, ask any honest Pac fan.

          But he banked his legacy a long time ago, and now he fights for cheques, when he fights at all that is..... so when he is not fighting, I am not interested in him at all.

          When he fights, maybe I will be interested. The JMM fight intrigued me, coz Marquez is my boy, as did the Mosley fight, for the exact same reason.

          Your Manny vs Floyd war is a joke, and the continual comparisions are ridiculous, Manny needs to learn to stand on his own two feet. The "yea, but Floyd" justifications, are just whiney excuses from uninformed fan-boy's.

            Well damn!

            You just laid it out right there, my man.

              Floyd basically confirmed it in his radio interview.

                One of the very few honest / intelligent / knowledgable Pac-fan's earlier admitted that the $100mil offer was for Mayflower to go with Don King.

                You guys still whining about this **** ?

                Here you are, straight from Floyd's mouth.

                He basically confirms that he asked for 100M and even tries to justify it.

                  Dude, this post coming from another poster would have earned accolades from most people. Unfortunately, everyone knows you're a Pac hater through and through. So this post smacks of hand-washing in light of recent news about Floyd that make it hard for even the most loyal ***** to defend.

Floyd hasn't even come out and said he wants to fight but yet this 100Mil asking price is official? You are full of **** because you can't even see this is all bull****.
                    Here ya go.
