    All of you ****s drinking the same hyped filled Koolaid about Lil Floyd Mayweather. All of the sudden Lil Floyd is some type of beast as if he was freaking Mike Tyson or something. All of you followers are buying into his hype. Everyone the Mayweather fought was either going down hill and way smaller opposition. Im gonna break it down for all of you bunch of followers.

    This is Mayweather's so called best boxing record in the history of boxing. Fighting a bum with no skills in Gatti, Fighting an old slow limited boxer in Baldomir, fighting a down hill 35 year old Delahoya that was in a war with Trinidad, got beat by Mosley twice and got KO'd by Hopkins. Fighting a small overrated unskilled Ricky Hatton. Fighting a small Juan Manuel Marquez and if my memory is not mistaken, Mayweather was two pounds over the weight limit and had to pay Marquez $600k penalty cause of the weight advantage. Then he fought an old 38 year old Mosley that had already been beaten by Cotto. Let's not forget the infamous KO of silly unexperienced kid in Victor Ortiz via sucka punch. WOW!!!!!!!

    The only fights I legitimately give Floyd Mayweather credit for is his masterful beat down of Diego Corrales, Jose Luis Castillo and Zab Judah. After those fights, he had the leverage to pick and choose his opponents and fight them when they were either going down hill or too small in size. The rest of his fights were a bunch of snoozz fest.

    We can all agree that all of Cotto's opponents were in their prime. He brutally KO'd an undefeated Kelson Pinto, KO'd undefeated Ricardo Torres, gave a brutal beat down to undefeated Paulie Malignaggi, brutally KO'd Carlos Quintana who later when on to give Paul Williams his first defeat, brutally KO'd Alfonso Gomez without breaking a sweat, out boxed the boxer in Mosley who back then was only 34 years old and only losses were to Vernon Forrest and Winky Wright.

    Cotto's only two losses were to Margacheato with loaded gloves whose fought like dirt since they found the plaster and to catchweight king Pacquiao who lured Cotto into making his biggest multi million dollar purse by making him starve down to 145lbs (Cotto pretty much trained himself for that fight cause his trainer just to be his spit bucket caddy).

    I have the utmost respect to Cotto cause he got balls. He never backed down from a fight, fought his opponents in their prime and took everything like a MAN. So all of you can continue to follow the heard like a bunch cattle and sheep. My boy Cotto is gonna give a much better fight than all of you ****s think.....

Now here were are in 2011 and Manny now says he will take the test and take a smaller purse. That right there tells you what? Why would Manny bring up a smaller purse if Floyd always wanted a 50-50 up until now? Are we really forgetting what Arum has been saying ON VIDEO? Do we really need a reminder here?
      FAIL. The first negotiations 'supposedly' only broke down over testing.

      This was straight out of the Floyd camps mouth. No use in dis*****g it.

        No my memories are just fine thank you. You seem very emotional though. Then again you have been neglecting every duck and dodge trick Arum has been using and the fact that Manny sees Arum as his boss is pretty self explanatory. I find it funny that Manny has to be worked so hard just to even agree to take a drug test and there has to be all these rules if he does while Floyd agreed to every little demand that Manny gave him without question. Think about it, Floyd never complained about them demanding him to pay 10 million for every pound that he goes over 147 on the fight night but people can complain about Floyd asking Manny to take a blood test. Some people are too emotionally attached to fighters they don't even know in person. This fight has never been a 50-50 to Floyd except in that one offer Manny declined.

        No Manny agreed to every little demand of Floyd. Mayweather top billing, Mayweather to come in to the ring 2nd, the 50/50 split, the 8oz gloves.

        Everything was agreed Pacquiao signed the contract, all Mayweather had to do was to sign, but then at the 11th hour he said he want blood test and kept on demanding until negotiations broke down.

          If he feels very uncomfortable fighting Pac, what can we do? He wants to fight the fights he wants until he's 37. That's better than retirement, vacation, retirement, part-time boxing... to me, at least.

            Over the past two years, there's been a lot of uncertainty amongst fans and media alike regarding the events surrounding the negotiations for the mega-fight between pound-for-pound champions Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. In an effort to clear up the confusion, FightHype.com has put together an in-depth timeline detailing every major milestone that took place. From the moment that Floyd Mayweather came out of retirement to the minute that Manny Pacquiao's promoter Bob Arum declared the fight to be off, all of the major events that dominated the headlines are included. Only the facts are included in this definitive timeline. Links to mulitple outside references have been included for each date, so fans can draw their own conclusions as to what went wrong at each step of the way.


            Now I could very well be wrong but I have been following this time line for some time now. I even have video evidence if you want me to post it?

              Reason why Floyd is the one ducking.

              -Take the test....Pac dont need to take "Mayweathers test". Cuz Pac like other boxers get tested by the State Athletic Commision

              -I want 100million guarantee....honestly Floyd MONEY Mayweather would ask for that right money team?

              -Before the Ortiz fight.....("Pac your next"!)

              -After the Ortiz fight.....("I never said Pac is next, dont put words in my mouth")

              -Take the Test....I thought Pac agreed to take the test already? All the way to the fight date.

              -Career high 40mil guarantee for Pac but 0% of everything else? Thats an insult to Pac

              -Pac counter with 50mil guarantee for Floyd a career high for floyd....NOGO

              -Take the test.....how many times is Floyd gonna use that?

              -Now Take the 40mil and NO 50-50

              Whats next Floyd fans?

                But what about Manny declining to take the OSDT for two years and then coming back and agreeing to them after the negotiations werent even ongoing anymore....Does Floyd take the blame for Bob Arum not letting Manny take the drug test for 2 years??? Just curious to see what ya think......
                Not the case.

                Floyd pulled that blood test stunt at the 11th hour, first of all it was 3 test, then when Pacquiao agreed even though he had problem in the past giving blood Floyd said he wanted random test with the 14 day cut off. Manny said 21 and pushed for a compromise 18 days. Floyd would not budge and the talks collapse.

                Then Pacquiao came down to Floyd's demands in the summer of that year Floyd moved the goal posts. When they had negotiations both Floyd and Manny came to terms on testing late summer 2010, an Floyd say he need a year or two break from boxing.

                  I just sent a link in my last post with a timeline of the events of this fight trying to be put together and its ignored. I will say it again. Floyd never agreed to a 50-50. It wouldn't make ANY sense for him to agree to a 50-50. This is why Manny came out at the end of last year and said that he was willing to take a smaller purse.

                    And your point is you're confirming that Floyd Mayweather Jr is pricing himself out? And you, as a fan, would rather not see the fight. How much exactly are you getting out of this?

                      The point I am making is that they claim that Floyd always wanted a 50-50 so that Manny has "agreed" to take the test his next excuse would be the 50-50 when the ENTIRE time he never agreed to a 50-50 except for his offer to Manny at specific time of the 14 day cutoff offer that Manny declined. Manny's team stopped talking about the split and focused on the blood testing for some odd reason. Floyd offer was 60-40.
