    Pac-Bradley is better than Cotto-Pacman at mannyweight.

    Cotto did tell team Pacman to shubb their mannyweight offer of 148.

    I don't even buy ppv's to begin with. But I am a huge boxing fan, thanks for the reply though.
    well, floyd wouldnt accept 50/50. so i think its clear.

    pacquiao wanted cotto 2 at welterweight. that is a division. i dont agree with catchweights either.

    yes he did, because he knew he would get the mayweather fight. if mayweather didnt offer him the fight, i dont think cotto would turn down the chance to get his own back for his loss to pacquiao. there is only so many peg legs and mayorgas he can fight.

      Yeah, they say Manny smokes him at anyweight, however he won't fight him above 148 now & needed a mannyweight of 145 the 1st time, why?

      Now Pacman is finally being forced by Arum to step in there with a young fighter that can box, move, match his stamina & has comparable speed.

      Thank you Cotto for having the balls to look elsewhere, thus leaving arum & his cronnies with no choice but to take a risk with a good fighter that comes to fight.

      No for Cotto this time. Time for arum's hood to man up, or get lost!!
      What happened to giving credit to the fighter for taking on the challenge? Peterson, Marquez and Bradley were the names offered to Pacquiao. He wasn't forced into anything.

        The bold, that's all you got?? How bout the fight not happening on may 5th?

        How bout Pacman's cut not healing in 5 months to start training??

        How bout bob arum saying the mgm grand, (the very place Pacman lost fought at wasn't good enough for the fight).

        But Floyd not accepting Manny's 50/50, which is far less than his own 50/50 is why the fight got trashed??

        A real boxing fan cannot possibly blame Floyd for team Pacman's blatant duck.

          Simple question. Who did Pacman want to fight & at what weight?

            arum said that, not pacquiao. if you watch the post fight interview with pacquiao and kellerman, pacquiao clearly says, "lets get it on may 5"

            and then you have all the 40 mil with no PPV percentage BS.

            mayweather has a history of magically stopping boxing when there is a threat in his division. this isnt the first time.

                Cotto vs Mayweather boring fight both are defensive fighter. Pacman will destroy Bradley. Gamboa vs Rios cant wait for this figth, grab ur popcorn cause this will be worth buying.

                  Of course you do, cause Pacman's a saint. He did not want Cotto at 147 & with the highest mannyweight being 148 too right?? That was all arum & Floyd.

                    I think im one of the few excited for Pac Bradley. Im very high on Bradley have been since his Witter fight. Hes gotten alot better and i think hes ready. I think itd be smart for him to come round 144 like Pac will, Bradleys looked better at 140 oppose to 147 imo

                      I'm very excited for this fight. But not for reasons others are. Most Pacman fans don't care which old, weight drained fighter he dominates just as long as he fights.

                      Others don't like this fight because they believe Bradley can't compete. But IMO it's been clearly proven that Pacman is extremely overrated. His fans use the same thing every time they start to post. "Bradley cannot handle Pacman's speed & power. Well a shot grand daddy Mosley lasted. A lightweight Marquez in the eyes of most beat him. Movement stiffles Pacman's offense. Add Bradley's own handspeed & stamina & Pacman will be in the fight of his life.
