[BIGBOXINGFAN]

This is the best news I heard all week, lets see PBF response

You mean lets see bob Arums response?

[Sugar Q]

When people CHOSE to be this blind, I'll gladly let them. Cong****.

So true Coach. I was taught when you see a fool you leave a fool. It's very unfortunate.

A 9min long vid again with Floyd saying he's returning on may 5th means he's calling PAC out but yet PAC saying he's gonna tell arum he wants Floyd next is bs??? ***** give me my 30sec back that I wasted by watching a bunch of people talking over eachothers. Smfh!!

the end of the video has floyd telling manny 'you say youre a clean athlete, gonna take the test then lets do it, may 5th is the date. if i sign the contract today you better sign tomorrow'

youre hopeless

Funny but this doesn't sound like it came out of Manny. Hopefully it is but I don't think so cause Arum is already making all sorts of excuses. Location, location, not enough time to spar and now Manny's cut turned into a nasty cut.

Manny leave TR out of this and negotiate directly with Floyd.

[PAC-BOY]

People seem to think that because of the high volume of punches and the quickness and the relentlessness (basically everything you can see with your eyes) that Pacquiao possesses, he will outwork Mayweather and beat him. You have to understand that the reason why JMM did so well against Pac is because he kept countering Pacquiao causing his punch output and work rate to drop. Trust me, when you miss a lot of punches you will get frustrated, and if you keep getting countered, you will be hesitant to throw more (basically, the things you can't see with your eyes, the mental aspect). And trust me, Pac will get countered against Mayweather. I mean, you don't really think Mayweather is going to miss too many punches against Pacquiao do you? Pacquiao does have quick feet, but he does make a lot of useless movements as well.

Mayweather is very accurate and precise with his shots....TO FIGHTERS WHO LIKE TO STAND IN FRONT OF HIM AND HAVE NO SPEED! Most fighters Floyd faced had a punch out put of 5 to 600 punches thrown in a fight. their connect % was very low against Floyd. Props to Floyd for gaining the nickname Pretty boy...because hes hard to hit! BUT thats with fighters that throw lower and land much lower % of punches. NOT a fighter like Manny! He throws 12plus hundred punches a fight. over a hundred a round. And thats with fighters like JMM that are battled tested and plenty of the the other great fighters hes been in wars with. 100 a round. Now the punches landed in average for manny with most fighters is around what most fighters throw with Floyd. I respect all fighters. I cant stand Floyd for what he is outside the ring as a person...but in the ring hes a fighter and a good boxer as well. With his own style that makes this fight what we need in boxing...and what we the fans need to see for a great fight. You think Floyd will win...okay. i disgree for my own reasons. not because i ma Fan of Manny
Im a fan of Manny for what hes done. Not race where hes from or any other ignorant reason! because as a fighter hes done a lot in and out of the ring in the Past decade!!!!! And when the American public can use the word phenomenon and manny in the same sentence is impressive. imo......
gonna be a good fight.

[Sugar Q]

how come whenever you hear pacquaio he stamers and stutters like a drunk idiot but when you read about something he said it is coherent and in complete sentences? Is that just something the writers "fix" ? I am asking this because this seems to good to be true so it probably is. I'm wondering if bob wrote that little bit and pacquiao co-signs it like a good little puppy. Thisway bob can turn it down and the blame will be off pacquiao and bob wil be the scapegoat like a good promoter he is. I really hope i am wrong but i just don't think this fight is happening.

exactly!!!!!!!!!

[Check_hooks]

I've been saying this for days now and lmao at *****s scrambeling

And if Pac is such easy work than how come *****s are still finding excuses for the fight to not happen (It depends on Arums, the stadium, Pac's cut)

None of those things came out of Pacs mouth, quit putting words there.

And anyone who think floyd beats Pac needs to rewatch the Castillo fight. Floyd has gotten worse since then while Pac has gotten better and they both know it.

"I don’t choose fights. It’s my promoter who does because it’s his job. My job is to fight, everybody must realize that"

http://www.malaya.com.ph/01102012/sports2.html

I'm a Pac fan but it's clearly a bullshit statement. Your promoter doesn't choose who you fight, his job is to offer you fights but you have the final say. It was very apparent during the negotiations for the Oscar and Hatton fights. Pac rejected the initial offers but ultimately signed the contracts, he had the final say back then and he has the final say now.

That is Manny's ticket to get out of a Mayweather fight; always has been. He'll pull that shit out on Tuesday when Arums tells him he isn't fighting Mayweather.


Arum works for Manny, not the other way around. Funny how in the same article he says he wants to do what the fans want for them to be happy...what a load of crap.

This is a bit of an ignorant statement but I also understand you're trying to eliminate any conspiracy theories, so I'll help you out. Manny delivered this information in Tagalog which is a language spoken by about 4 out of every 10 Pinoys/Pinays. Whenever Manny is speaking in Tagalog, he is pretty damn precise and is void of the "uhs, ums, you knows" etc. Does that answer your question???
