    If Pacquiao retires without ever fighting Floyd

    Do you blame him, and how does it affect his legacy?

    Do you blame Bob, and how does it affect Pac's legacy?

    Do you blame Floyd, and does it affect Pac's legacy or do you give him a pass?

    I blame Team Pacquiao more, in the grand scheme I would say 20% to Floyd, 35% to Pac and 45% Arum.

    It effects Floyd's legacy most resume-wise because he doesn't really have that career defining fight against a young-ish prime ATG. Many think he would win anyways, but you can't give him a fake W just because skill-wise he seems the more adequate.

    Arum has already convinced me he is a crook, so yeah, I blame him mostly and think it's crooked of what he has done to his former client.

        lol. Yeah he really took the easy road moving up to junior middleweight and fighting a middleweight Delahoya instead of Margarito.

            No. I actually want Pacquiao to retire. Pacquiao has become a part-time boxer, part-time congressman, part-time host, part-time performer, etc.

            If he is to fight Floyd, he better be a full-time boxer and abandon his other part-time jobs.

                Interesting. Three of those fighter are under Bob Arum, and the fourth lost to Ricky Hatton- who Floyd later stopped.

                    Let's be smart. How many Bob Arum fighters have been in a ring with Floyd since Floyd left Bob Arum? Not exactly a conspiracy theory any longer, it's all laid out for you. Even if it wasn't 100% Arum, the truth is somewhere in the middle.

                    As far as Tszyu? Would you have given Floyd credit for fighting him AFTER he lost to Hatton?
