    This video always crack me up the way hes looking around like hes afraid someone is gonna hit him

    So it would have to be a tie between Margarito and Pac.

    I've never seen a fighter take ducking and dodging another fighter to the levels that floyd has and it probably won't ever happen again

      Ye do know Floyd was offered 8 million to fight Baldomir,who was a champion at that the time
      He was offered the same money to fight Margarito,who's biggest win at the time was Cintron,plus he would have to sign an extension with Top Rank
      Arum is the one who kept him away from Cotto,even going public to say Cotto needed more fights to be ready for Floyd
      He can hate Floyds style and his personality but this bull**** about ducking is just ******ed

            its cool man u can defend him day after day but most of us know the truth. his most recent offer was 100% ppv going to himself, and none to his opponent. He wants the fight!

              That seems like a greedy offer,until the richest fight in history earned Floyd 32m,so 40m regardless of ppv numbers is a generous offer
              Of course it could do great numbers,and Pacquiao could lose out on a couple of million,but when Floyd/Oscar split 88m for the richest fight ever,chances are 40 is probably better than Pacquiao would get with a 60/40 split
              What offers had Manny made?

                50 mil rebuttal, ellerbe turned it down, apparently he speaks for floyd.

                still, floyd wants 100% ppv, aka "i dont want to fight"

                that's all that's needed.

                  none. fighters at this level dont fear any other fighter.

                  theres ALWAYS a "scary" guy who ppl think will destroy them, to reach the top you have to walk through one boogeyman after the next and by the time fighters reach this level they all feel like they are the best.

                  besides, whats is there to be scared of? nobody starts out great, every fighter took their beatings to get to this point, no fighter fears a beating even if they did think there was a reasonable possibility.

                    Exactly,Floyd is not afraid to fight Manny and Manny is not afraid to fight Floyd
                    It's business that is the issue when fights don't happen
