    So are we saying that Pac did the same thing with Floyd by turning down a 50-50 split to fight Clottey for chump change? Or even walking away from a 40 million guarantee to fight Floyd just to fight Bradley for less than half that?

    Or Mayweather walking away from a Margarito fight because Bob wouldn't pay him the money he wanted....

    I remember Pac nearly walking away from the Hatton and Hoya fights too because he almost didn't get the amount of money he wanted...

    I wonder what amount of money JMM, Bradley and Cotto want now.... Not to many options for Pac and if he won't fight Floyd he will have to fight one of these guys and I'm sure they won't take the same deal as they did last time. Then again with Bob having his hand in the cookie jar you just never know who actually makes the most from the deals... lol

      yah it was definitely a much lower amount than what he could have got in the pac rematch...poor decision making for sure.

          If Cotto is allowed to weigh at 150 or over, Pac may lose all 3 of these fights. The Cotto fight being the only one that's questionable. Pac simply cannot beat JMM in reality and everyone knows it (which we have seen 3 times). Pac should have gotten the nod over Bradley but he still looked ordinary and could not even put Bradley down even after landing straight left after straight left. If they fight again, with Bradley having no foot/ankle problems, being able to take Pac's shots and knowing exactly what to expect...Bradley legitimately wins the rematch. I mean if Bradley would have just moved to his left during the fight it would have been a legit UD for him and he would have avoided those lefts all night. I think what Pac needs to worry about if there is a rematch is that he never truly hurt Bradley and was landing clean flush shots.

            All of those fights happened eventually. You need to accept the fact that your idol is the biggest chicken in the world. If he got balls, all these issues are unimportant.

            Three years ago it was all about PEDs. And when that was no longer an issue your hero came up with a new one. When is he going to man up and fight?

                You'll never convince anyone with that bs of yours until your hero stops ducking. Apparently, Floyd doesn't agree with you. Otherwise, he could have fought Manny years ago. So no, you're not credible. Floyd is more credible. He's the boxer.

                  We know it's between Cotto, Marquez and Bradley.

                  I think realistically, it's between Bradley and Marquez.

                  I don't really care for either but I hope it's Marquez. Solely because that will be the most competitive fight, IMO.

                      Dont need to convince anyone , the people that know boxing know Manny is a WW fake created by matchmaking and selective ducking , dude cant KO anyone at WW without a draining CW thats FACT , you deny that lol then you got to be an empty head .
