Agreed. After all, better in court than the ring.Originally posted by Walt Liquor View PostComment

I would have believed Floyd is scared of Pacquiao and that's why he's asking for OST, if he had asked for OST for Mosley and Ortiz, and then backed out when they agreed to it. But as we saw, he asked for OST for Mosley and the fight was on, he asked for OST for Ortiz and the fight is on. I doubt there would be any difference if Pacquiao agreed to full OST like Mosley and Ortiz, I believe the fight would be on.
But waiting for Arum/DuBoef to contact Al Haymon and tell him Pacquiao has agreed to full OST and they are ready to fight, is like waiting for the world end.
Can't say the same for Floyd since he's always just asked for the same thing, with some concessions that were rejected, ultimately leading him to making it full OST.Comment

I dont really care, they get paid millions of dollars to fight, but some are acting like Drama queens, they are not worthy of all this hype. If it was Pacq who hasnt boxed in a couple years and kept making videos and being on "vacation" I would blame him.Originally posted by cixthree View Post
But how can you blame the guy whos active in the ring for the 5 years? You cant blame the guys whos active. You can only blame the drama queen part time boxer who makes outrageous demands to suit his ego. He is a boxer, thats what he gets paid for. Dude obviously has emotional problems.
He just needs to fight and shut people up, all this media talking and ustream crap is making him look weak. He lost the respect of most people including African Americans who are calling him a coward. If he continued fighting 2-3 times a year nobody could say anything, but he fought more woman in the last 5 years then men.Comment

as much as I love Manny, Floyd has his number in and out the ring. When the fight gets made Manny is going to look ordinary and be beaten rotten in a 1 sided beat down.
Arum comes across badly when its been condensed like it has, shown to be the snake he is.
I cant stand the way Floyd acts and would love to see Manny KO him, but it's not going to happen....*******s when the fight gets made it will be one hell of a day watching the panic set inComment

Bob Arum disputes Mayweather's claim
Undefeated welterweight Floyd Mayweather Jr. has been mostly quiet and out of the boxing picture since his arrest on domestic battery charges in September. Mayweather appeared in court last month to face the felony charges, but his hearing was moved to March.
But the controversial boxer, who is on boxing fans' most wanted list for a megafight against Manny Pacquiao that could be the richest in boxing history, did a rare interview late last month with Fighthype.com.
In that wide-ranging interview, Mayweather said, "After the first negotiations didn't come through, nobody reached out to Al (Haymon, Mayweather's manager)" regarding a fight with Pacquiao, and "we didn't hear anything from Bob Arum."
Arum on Wednesday called that absurd. "We not only reached out, we had a full negotiation with (HBO Sports President) Ross Greenburg being the intermediary with Al Haymon back before the Margarito fight. And that came to nothing. And I assume Haymon advised Floyd that we were negotiating the fight through Greenburg. But (saying) we didn't reach out to Haymon was total nonsense.
"As far as Floyd is concerned, we've attempted to reach him without any success. He knows where we are. And none of his people have ever called us. The idea that we haven't reached out is absurd. … We've gotten no calls from him. …
"Why the hell should we reach out to Al Haymon when they have constantly said that they're not interested in fighting? Let them call us. … I'm not going to reach out to them like I'm chasing them. But if they said to a responsible newspaper or somebody responsible, 'We want to fight Manny Pacquiao,' I would make the call."
HBO had no comment on the subject, and Mayweather's adviser, Leonard Ellerbe, could not be reached by phone.

lol...and that they do...Originally posted by IMDAZED View Post
Actually, FYI...FH is planning on closing/archiving the entire forum and implementing a new, nex-gen platform in the near future....
Reason being the simple message board concept is dead...and now that FH has jumped to the top with the Mayweather score, it only makes sense to lead the way into the future forumwise as well...
Stay tuned, and I'll be keepin' an eye out for ya...Comment
