Let's be honest, Pac and Floyd are ducking each other

very good post man!!!

I think your on to some thing here..... If only all the fans on each side would put their respected arguments to rest, and focus on calling these two out on a media level, we could pressure them into the ring.

It doesnt help when the media is clearly putting the blame on one. We need them to go at both of them.

That is called negotiating just in case you didn't know. Pac didn't turn down the test but simply negotiated for cut-off days. Floyd was also offered to team Pac a 2 weeks cut-off days in first negotiation but in the second negotiation when Pac accepted the 2 weeks cut-off Floyd suddenly took it from the table. It doesn't matter now because in latest EPSN interview Pac already agreed to Floyd OST without the cut-off days but NOW the problem is.....Floyd also took from table when he said his next fight is Pacquiao and denied he never said that make us wonder why?

wrong, Pac wanted 21 & May wanted 7. compromise would be 14, which is what Mayweather put on the table the first time, and Pac refused.

Once Pac refused this, that's when the offer was off the table. May even said it in the Mosley post fight interview.

The second negotiation May didn't want it, and i've already said this, but so far right now all that's happening is back and forth bs with the media.

You can go round and round in circles about OST and cut-offs and timelines and vacations, and apportion blame generally in accordance with who you're a fanboy of.

Truth is both are content to duck each other and take on opponents they will beat, rather than the true test for both; each other.

It's like a tacit agreement to keep blaming the other, while not making a huge effort to hunt down the other into fighting him.

And what's sad is both these mother****ers could give such a monumental lift to the sport if they'd just dare to be great (again), rather than just milk their status.

I mean, if the first fight was even halfway competitive, we'd get probably get a rematch or trilogy out of it.

As it is, they're both just p*ssing around.

If the fight doesn't get made, I will look back at this time and blame both. And my respect for both will diminish considerably.

Glad someone else sees it that way.

That's just it, it's become an issue where you gotta take one side and blame the other.

When the real question is - why are these 2 not doing all they can to make this ****ing fight? Do you see either side really being pro-active in making it happen? Or are we just drip fed a couple of lines of blame here and there in between them promoting a fight with an over-matched opponent.

Really think about this - we have two all time greats, very close to their prime if they are not already in it, at the same weight, huge stars - and there's no huge desire to get this fight made!

It's kinda incredible when you think about it. And 20 years from, we'll be debating this Fantasy Fight.

Honestly, I think they both want the fight. I don't think any accusations are true, and I don't think Mayweather is afraid of Manny.

They both have such high egos that when put together, you get a very difficult situation to deal with.

It looks like it's taken a couple of years to get their bullsht straightened out, but 2012 should be when they fight. If not, the fight will never happen.

Please explain to me how Pac's ducking Mayweather?

Please don't give me that OSTD bullshyet!

I never agreed with the the OST request, it was just a ****** obstacle. But hey, it's here and Manny needs to call Floyd's bluff and just ****ing do it.
