Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao's Decision on Mayweather in 48 Hours

[joseph5620]

It has been marinating for over 2 years in the public eye...no more promotion is necessary. These guys are big enough stars to get onto all the major shows, etc to promote and they have the perfect storyline with Mayweather going to jail and having his sentence pushed back.

"Bad boy Mayweather is going to jail! Will this affect his performance"
"Will righteous congressman Manny Pacquiao give Mayweather his first defeat"

What would more time do for the promotion? Nothing, you don't want to be promoting something for too long, after a while it will become pointless...people will watch some promo stuff and see the fight isn't even happening for another 6 months then turn over and say "I'll check it out closer to the time"

Anybody claiming it will require more than 3 months doesn't want to see the fight. End of.

*****s and *******s are in an all out war!!! Pac Boy is winning the battle of the ******S!

[WESS]

3 years of ducking and he needs 48 more hours? GTFOH either he wants to get schooled and a large pay check or he don't....

Make it happen Team Pac... everyone knows the truth, time to step up and finally make the fight! NO MORE EXCUSES! MAY 5th in Vegas... fight or forever be a coward!

Pac will say yes to May the 5th he just wants the fight to happen. Question is with Arum about will that be enough?

[.::|ULTIMATE|::.]

hahahaha this is getting ridiculous I can't believe people hang on his every 48 hour promise to make a statement on who he is fighting next which never materialize till bob comes out and says it. I don't even care about the mayweather-pac fight anymore it has lost its spark. Let them fight young hungry guys.

How come PBF or Manny has never become the other's mandatory? If that happened couldn't this fight go to a purse bid?

They have belts. Once you get a belt the other other sanctioning bodies(minus the IBO) take you off their rankings.

isn't friday the deadline for floyd's next opponent? so in that case 48 hours is enough time to think about it. make it happen pac!!!
