Comments Thread For: Arum Eyes Mayweather-Pacquiao For April 2013 Date

[The Big Dunn]

Almost 90% of the boxing community believes Floyd would beat Pac. Even a large percentage of the Pac fans thinks Pac is no match for Floyd. Man, if that is not motivation enough to make the fight happen I don't know what is.

Floyd can't make manny sign to fight. All he can do is make an offer. If manny refuses, it means he doesn't want the fight.

Who cares

At this point a lot of us don't care about may and pac fighting, or the pac maq, or the pac brad, later for that madness.

Do you really believe Bob Arum needed to build a stadium, that Manny's cuts needed extra time, and that he didn't know who to contact on Floyd's side for the fight, or that he just didn't want to make it???

If Floyd wanted it, he could have at the very least called Arum's bluff, if it is all bluff at all. Floyd could have said, "Yes, I'll wait" Don't really know the big deal about the stadium that these clowns keep repeating it. Bigger stadiums means bigger accommodation for a bigger audience. And the truth was Pac eventually agreed to the May 5th date, and Floyd's answer was he wants 100% PPV. Man, is that the picture of a guy who wants the fight? This is the picture of a scared guy.

Yes I do, thats why he made the offer in Dec 09.

You forgot to answer the questions. wouldn't that mean Manny would have to show balls and sign with GBP or TMT to get the floyd fight, since he makes less than floyd? or shouldn't he have taken either offer since its for the challenge and not the money? or does manny not REALLY WANT IT?

or is it another double standard?

What could Floyd have done to make the fight happen? Assuming he really wants the fight. FIGHT DIDN'T HAPPEN. What could he have done differently to make the fight happen? Again, assuming he really wants the fight.

(Definition of wanting the fight = Floyd proving himself he's the best, show the world that he can make Pac look like a clown in the ring... )

Naw, Arum said over and over that May 5th wasn't good, that June would be better. Manny never publicly said s**t about the date, all we heard was Arum saying May 5th was bad because of the cut and stadium, that's why people bring that up.

And if Manny and Arum wanted it, they would have agreed to fight in March 2010 when everything was set. Instead, they refused testing and fought Clottey.

Hopefully it can get done Spring 2013.

why do you keep refusing to answer my question? i have answered yours already.

cgarcia knows, he just pretends not to. If he was being honest about JMM and Tim, that they needed to do what it ttok to make the fight with manny, then the same should apply to Manny visa vi floyd.

But hey, we know that manny fans can't bring themselves to evaluate each fighter equally.

Implying Manny fans actually evaluate fighters

You're just confirming over and over again that Floyd din't really want the fight. You keep obligating Pac to do this and that, bow down to lord savior almighty Floyd, yada yada... There's nothing for Floyd. You're saying Floyd should just wait and stand by his offer whatever the current one is. Take it or leave it. Which definitely means, he's not that interested in the fight. He's not interested in proving himself he's the best. Clear as day.

Again, what should Floyd do to make the fight happen? Assuming he really wants the fight.

no I simply responded to your post. You refuse to do same.

I am not obligating Pac to do anything, I asked you do you have the same standard for him as you do JMM and TIm, in terms of how you judge if someone wants the fight.

Your unwillingness to answer is puzzling. you stated how you feel a fighter shows he wants the fight. So I asked you does that apply to manny? Either it does or it doesn't.

your interpretation of my post is equally baffling because I never posted or suggested anyhting like you put in your responding post.
