40m is not an offer to Pac anyway, it's for Pac to split with TR. After Arum's 27%, 29m left for Pac. Nowhere near 2x, more like 12%
If that were true, Pacquaio wouldn't have hired an outside accounting firm to investigate his finances, which included his contracts and boxing purses with Top Rank.

Looking back, I remember Floyd made that racial video about Pac. And I always say "the ones with the most fear, are the ones who talk the most hate". You dont see Floyd making any hate video about anyone else except the one he made for the "little man". Even tho I think he can beat Pac easy, Floyd is giving it ZERO chance that the "little man" beats him.

Originally posted by J The UnBiased View PostI understand that, and I think he has a right to take that stance. What i'm saying is that regardless of Floyd's position, If Manny can get past Rios and the Bradley/Marquez winner, it becomes an interesting matchup once more, and I wouldn't mind seeing it.
For Floyd, it's like he always was hoping that Manny would lose one day so that he can then say "why should I fight him" even though that is not a good excuse. Ali lost, Frazier lost, Tyson lost, Lewis lost, Duran lost, SRR, SRL .... and so on ......

- Hatton - Two fight winning streak. Manny fought Hatton where Hatton was king and never lost at. Floyd fought Hatton where Hatton was very average fighter and had only fought once at.
- Cotto: Two fight winning streak. Even when Floyd fought Cotto, he said "Cotto is undefeated in my eyes"
- Margo: Won his last fight. It was Manny's first fight above 147. Margarito lost to Mosley but going into that fight, Margarito knew he was in big trouble due to what they found out (bricks). So Margo was not all there that night.
- Morales - Yes he lost his last fight but that was at a division above 130. Morales last fight at 130, he beat Manny. It was an expected revenge fight that turned into a trilogy.
Even then, who cares if they lost or not. I would rather face an opponent that represents the toughest opponent and lost than a guy that is undefeated but people give him very little chance of winning the fight.
It's like people saying, Frazier and Norton lost badly to Foreman so I would not like to see Ali fight Frazier nor Ken Norton ...... YIKES!!! When you fight the best in your respective division someone will lose but that doesn't mean that fighting them after that will be considered a "bad fight".
Except for perhaps Margo (still a very tough cookie), all the above fighters, those fighters were still considered the toughest or one of the toughest opponents in their respective weight class.
If Floyd loses to Canelo next, should opponents be avoiding Floyd because he lost?
