    thats why ithe matts/barcia fight is on the undercard-to highlight the winner as a possible opponent for floyd. yes I would buy the fight.

    he said he would fight twice in 2013 long before the ghost ppv sales were in. so maybe thi was the plan all along.

    Maybe martinez but I doubt it.
    i think BOTH floyd and pac are content NOT fighting each other.

      I understand what you're saying, but just no.

      It's the same tone people try and use when he denied the 40million, people say he's ****** for denying it, but ignore the fact Floyd would be walking away with close to 100mil.

      He makes 20+ mil a fight and is a national treasure, he will do fine economically.
      Do you really think that Manny makes 20 million a fight?
      Not with Top Rank. Bob makes about that much.

        lets be real here... when you say "attention grab", between the 2 fighters, theres only 1 guy that can be guilty of such.

        manny responds to floyd ****ting on him on press tours, then all of the sudden you accuse manny for "attention grabbing"???? wow.
        No point trying with Dunn, he won't criticize Floyd on anything but loves to involve himself when it comes to Pacquaio.

            Oh god, fine, let's say he makes 13 million a fight just to keep you happy.

            He is rich enough and is a countries national treasure, he will economically never be broke.

              Floyd just doesn't need Pac and never did. At 1 time Pac didn't need Floyd but now he does.

              Get it?

              When will Pac ever get another 40 million offer? Never.
              40m is a garbage offer, since he needs to split it with Top Rank. They split 40m+ for any of the JMM 3, 4 fights, which weren't even highly anticipated, much less biggest fight of all time.

                Cmon, if you class his fight with Bradley a loss you're about as smart as a plank.
                It's not about how I class things.

                I had Manny beating Bradley rather easily, but when you're trying to get a fight against the biggest name/draw in the sport, having two L's in a row on the record isn't exactly beneficial.

                As I said though, I don't give a **** about these guys anymore.

                  lol I would of thought with pacquiao's 2 losses he would be willing to fight him even more now but its the opposite.

                  Wasn't pac,50 cent and floyd were about to go into business together but floyd held back?

                    @BIGGDUNN - I don't think the fight was ever going to take place but obviously this was a last straw type of deal. I lost my luster for this fight awhile ago.

                    @BIGBOXINGFAN - PBF will go broke quicker than PAC will. $$ goes a longer way in the philippines. He's a congressman and a national hero. I hope PAC isn't that ****** to throw away his money. If you are filipino, you know his wife is controlling his money so it's not like he can **** it up on his own.

                      Absolutely. the one that lost wouldn't have made as much over the past 4 years. The promoter that loses has reduced leverage with the networks. Them not fighting has been much more profitable over the long term for all involved.
