      Great you've blown it.

      Hardcore Floyd fans complain so much about Pac not fighting Martinez just for this sole reason.

      They get everyone to talk, complain, and whine about Pac/Martinez, Pac this, and Manny that, just to keep us from realizing and asking...

      Hey? What about Floyd?

      He always goes on about how Pac is a little midget and how

      He fought DLH at the better weight.

      Why can't he fight Martinez?

        exaclty, they want to crucify Pacquiao for ducking him, yet, they say all a fighter has to do is call out Floyd and Martinez has done that several times now. I mean, if every fighter in history is "easy work" for Mayweather, I dont understand why Martinez isn't on his cross hairs.

          Because he has personal issues to handle. Namely the issue with his wife, court, and the possibility of going to jail or losing his kids. Whichever.

          When that gets settled he can think about boxing again. Seeing how he has IRS issues as well.


          At least it makes sense for him to do what he does. Where as Pacquiao doesn't have highly publicized issues and still rather fight a foot in the grave old man.

              Diego Corrales has imminent jailterm and still fought Floyd. It's called balls.

                    No. If you were a man, which you obviously aren't. It's called handling your business. Floyd's #1 business right now is to handle the shyt with that woman and his kids.


                    As far as Corrales goes. That's why he was fucked up in the head most of the time. He never handled his shyt, he tried to run away from it by doing other shyt. Instead of just handling his business. If he would have handled his business, he wouldn't have had to get drunk to get away from it all, and he probably wouldn't have died. rest in peace to the man but that is real talk.

                      Whatever he does with his money is his thing. Whatever he does for fun, is his thing. All I know is, he has shyt to handle with his personal life and boxing goes on the back burner when it comes to Floyd and his personal life.

                      you can hate all you want but it doesn't change the reality of things.
