Mayweather's response to Pacquaio! Who's ducking who again?
Collapse

Unsubstantiated opinions are not something to be concerned with. Because a few posters say some things doesn't make it true.Do you find any logic behind how many numerous quotes that Floyd will (a) not fight a dangerous fighter, (b) multiple hurdles before letting little manny pacquiao fight him, (c) a low ball offer at the time, and (d) his latest statements within link provided?
I doubt he is now scared to fight PAC as he's on a downhill but he is obviously trying to rip his balls off by saying what he said.
He has to win vs RIOS in fashion and then tare up Bradley vs JMM winner. I don't think JMM will fight him again though.
Yes he is kicking dirt on Manny. I mean, is that really a big deal, that he called manny pacquio a name? In another thread I posted that I completely understand manny's response to floyd's ****. Frankly, its nice to see a real response rather than the fake church going bull****. It was also refereshing to see the real floyd, however petty and childish he is, and not the over acting good guy.
Manny beats rios than yes-as weebler has said- the floyd manny talk will heat up amongst the mainstream. I think tim beats JMM anyway. Then when manny decapitates tim the hype will be back.
That said floyd is going to do whatever he can to get a ****load dough out of the manny fight. Floyd may not be the smartest dude but Haymon and Ellerbee know what they are doing.
Yes floyd could've made things easy in 2010-2012. he could've given fans what they wanted and taken less money to make the manny fight. he could've elevated boxing to new heights.
Instead he made himself a ****load of money and still has the biggest fight in years on the horizon and signed off on putting garcia/matts on the card and is creating a buzz amongst core fans.Comment

I can't really see that as Pac is really at the end of his roads as well as Floyd. They are ready to cash in after the Rios fight.
I am not condoning Bob's tactics but it was realistic because JMM was begging for the fight and he was not a money maker. He doesn't have other options to make that $$. Bradley was on the same boat with no chance of a big payday/shot.
I am stating the logic behind the tactic. It's not going to work because there is NO CHANCE Pac jumps to Mayweather Promotions. If you said it was very possible, then I would be OK with this tactic.
Are you stating a Matt/Garcia fight with Floyd would make sense? Would you buy it@59 or 69$?
He took the Canelo fight because he is an attraction and his PPV numbers were not as expected by Showtime w/the Ghost and they likely lost money or didn't like the amount of revenue vs the cost of their contract with PBF.
Martinez, Bradley won their last fights and Martinez is not part of TR. I am just stating fights that is likely.
Floyd told Canelo he would fight him after Floyd himself fought Guerrero.So regardless if the Floyd/Guerrero PPV with now make yourself look ****** by saying i`m bs`ing.Comment

50 Cent paid someone to look into it (his words) so yeah, I'll take his word on that.
Because it's irrelevant, it's aimed at personally insulting myself as opposed to discussing boxing. It has nothing to do with Pacquiao-Mayweather.You parsed the last part of my post. It would help other readers understand why you are running with floyd is scared. you said he was scared of hatton too.Comment

well I'll go with the new york times since they are not ex business partners of floyd, had a twitter beef with him, and probably did just a bit more investigating than 50.
Its aimed at qualifying why you are running with floyd being scared. I have never seen you suggest when TR or K2 make potential opponents give options on future fights as a condition of manny and wlad fights, that fear is motivating that decision.But now when floyd suggests it you do.
You know its bluster and business and not because you think thse actions equate to fear-its because you are grinding an axe because of something that happened over 5 years ago and you haven't resolved your personal feelings about it.Comment

I hope you will be waking up and snapping out of that dream you are having with Floyd!I wont criticize floyd for doing the same thing to manny that manny's promter does to his opponents. You(nor your alt that got deleted) don't give a **** when Bob plays hardball with JMM and Tim, but now floyd does it and he deserve criticism for it.
Man take that **** someplace else. You were the same poster whining when JMM played hardball with manny.
You act like because manny is king of the phillipines that fighters have to treat him as such. **** you. He may be a national treausre there but round here he's a contender coming off getting KTFO, no more no less.
Floyd's promoting is nowhere near Top Rank nor GBP. To ask for what Floyd is asking, everyone can see that Floyd just does NOT want the fight and NEVER DID!
Stop defending Floyd and call it what it always was. Floyd is just doing what he has always done ..... Floyd is putting another roadblock. Floyd has always been one or two steps ahead with them roadblocks. Everyone but some of the die hard Floyd fans can see this.Comment

You didn't call it a roadblock when tr did it on behalf of manny with jmm and tim. Yet now its a roadblock.I hope you will be waking up and snapping out of that dream you are having with Floyd!

No mp isn't gbp or tr- so what? Floyd is using his leverage against manny the same way manny does. You are only whining because manny is on the short end. You didn't stand up for jmm or tim so go back and sit in the corner.Comment

With Manny, all of a sudden Floyd says, "I want drug testing starting with Manny" BUT never did it with any of his previous fights.
With Manny, all of a sudden Floyd says "I want Manny to come to Floyd promotions or no fight" BUT never did it with any of his previous fights.
The bottom line is that Floyd does not want to fight Manny and NEVER DID!Comment

I'm just pointing out your overall cluelessness on boxing and obsession with name guys. As for China and the business of boxing, like they said, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. Trot on champComment

No, the bottom line is that Floyd doesn't give a **** about fighting him now. He's just ****ting on Pacquiao(and his rabid fan base) with these comments because he can. He obviously wanted the fight back in 2009 though. Too bad for all you people obsessed with the fight that Pacquiao walked away to fight Clottey.How can you not see what everyone is seeing?

People just need to get over and accept that the fight will probably never happen. I don't even see why some of you are still so interested, Pacquiao has little to no shot. Pacquiao fans should be hoping for opponents that are more tailor made for his style.Comment
