      Wow. What a damn shame to the sport of boxing. Even after Floyd has agreed to a 50/50 split of the fight purse. Bob Arum even goes on to mention Zab Judah as a potential opponent for Manny Pacquiao. Even though Zab Judah is coming of a KO Loss where he clearly gave up and checked out of that fight with Khan.

      I guess Pacquiao/TopRank/Bob Arum will do what ever it takes to stay out of Floyds lane, and away from a Blood Test.

      But yet somehow every1 will keep blaming and hating on Floyd for the fight not happening. Damn shame.
      Its obvious arum doesnt want the fight. Everyone always likes to talk about floyd ducking but its a fact that arum admitted floyd would have took the margarito fight but demanded guarantees for cotto hatton and de la hoya. Arum said hell no that the money wasnt there and floyd went on to make way more money against hatton and de la hoya than he even asked arum for. He would have also had to sign an extension.

        Pacquiao will soon be fighting an undefeated black fighter....isnt that what he was being criticized for not doing by some of you? Dont get me wrong, we all want Floyd-Pac but how do we know Floyd isnt taking another 18 months off and waiting for Khan (another Golden Boy fighter) to get a couple wins at 147 for Floyd to jump on that fight?

          The usual Bob Arum bullshi!t, he been milking Manny's ******* for a few years now. Only a complete idiot can not see that. Dibella hit the nail on the head with his last outburst.

          "All this is to disguise how he won't let his Big Three, Pacquiao, Cotto or Margarito, get near Sergio. Sergio would knock out Cotto and he would beat Margarito now also. We've called Bob's bluff with Sergio. Yet he's the same In House Bob, who chases and steals other people's fighters like he's doing with Tim Bradley. He gets guys like Bradley convinced they won't fight Pacquiao unless they're in house, promoted by Bob"

            Why exactly would mayweather be the priority when he made it quite clear in his ortiz post fight interview that he doesnt want to fight pac next?

              Manny wouldn't even fight Martinez at 148. Would I agree with 150? Hell to the no. But stop it.

                Hey, remember when you had a good laugh when I told you Pacquiao would be fighting Bradley next months ago? Good times, let's do it again some time

                    we didn't know this already?

                    Both sides will milk this for all they're worth.
                    If they fought in may 2012, then the loser probably won't have a blockbuster fight in the second half of 2012. Even the winner of the fight would probably take a hit.

                    Floyd will fight Khan, or maybe berto.
                    Pac will fight bradley. It sucks but thats the way It's gonna go. At least we won't have to suffer through pac vs cotto 2.

                      And I had nothing riding on the Pacquiao PPV #s. The Comedian and I have a gentleman's bet and we'd both like to know the results, but they sure are taking their sweet time.
                      showtime still hasnt released those numbers haha
