    If Floyd's next fight is Khan, it confirms he's ducking Pacman!

    Lets get one thing straight, I'm a huge Mayweather fan and I respect his dedication to the sport. On top of that I actually hope Rios retires Pacman on Nov 23. But I have to remain objective and ask an honest question. When asked about the Pacman fight, Floyd says Pacman needs to avenge his losses to Bradley and Marquez before they can discuss fighting eachother. As if to say, Pacman needs to "earn" the "opportunity to fight him". But if Floyd fights Khan, he contradicts that statement because Khan lost two fights back to back, fought a career lightweight (Molina), then narrowly escaped with a victory over a journeyman who dropped him (Diaz). He definitely hasn't earned the fight. So you may say "Money is the motivator"? My question to you all and TMT would be; Do you think Floyd would take home more money fighting Khan and giving him his small cut vs. Fighting Manny Pacman, paying him a flat 20-30 million (being that Pac has little room for negotiation after the marquez KO) and taking the rest? Anyone who says that fight isn't the biggest fight to be made still in boxing is kidding themselves. If Floyd is about MONEY why isn't a fight with PACMAN the next logical step? Your thoughts

              Except for the fact that Pac isn't saying Mayweather has to beat XYZ opponents to "earn" the fight.

                When will people understand Top Rank/HBO fighters don't fight Goldenboy/Showtime fighters? It's not like it's news or anything. It's been going on for quite a while now.

                  if you truly call yourself the THE MONEY TEAM, would you let petty a rift in a relationship stop you from generating 100 million dollars? If the answer is yes, you ain't THE MONEY TEAM
