    Had they fought and it turned out to be a great fight, a rematch would've happened. Nobody lost out on anything even now. They can still fight. Pac lost a bit of respect the minute Marquez ko'd his ass.

    Pac is beloved so people won't look at it like it's that bad a career drop. Now he has no choice but to take less, and now he's older. Yes Floyd is older, but he is probably better preserved. Still Pac has a chance if he beats Rios to make a fight with Floyd, beat Floyd and become a legend.

      of course. he sold 2.2ish million ppv against canelo.


      they would have sold 3m plus against pacqauio, and had a rematch.

      that's dozens of millions of dollars.

      they made a lot of money not fighting eachtoehr and putting hte fight off, but they never cashed out on that rivalry. pacwauio got stopepd.

        both fighters will have to deal with questions about the other. Not just Floyd as many would like to believe.

          Floyd gave up on the biggest money making fight he'll ever see over someone you, he, and other minions claimed was easy money and easy work. In 10 years, when people are still praising Manny Pacquiao for taking on all comers, Floyd will still be getting questioned, "how come you never fought Manny?"

          The question of "why didn't you fight Floyd?", will never be muttered to Manny Pacquiao. Virtually everyone knows Floyd was terrified of the "ordinary and one dimensional midget".

            Trust me, Floyd cares what the fans think. Or else he wouldn't go on tirades on how the american people need to get behind him because hes american, or how hes a rich coward. Floyd wishes and dreams he could be adored by the fans.

                No,

                Don't let these guys with their prejudiced guys with their dumb ass posts lead you astray. They stay inside the bubble.

                Floyd has 300 MILLION REASONS why he won't ever think about PAC ever.
                Depending on how PAC's career ends he may or may not either.

                  Manny wanted no parts of Mosley that beat Margs
                  Manny wanted no parts of Raheem
                  Manny wanted no parts of Holt
                  Manny wanted no parts Martinez

                  Manny's a great but let's not act like he fought everybody, he did not, solid resume, but you can pick at it just like anyone's elses

                    lol, **** outta here. The same people who wanted those fights, are the same people who asked Floyd to fight Marquez, Ortiz and Guerrero. Nobody did.

                    Manny dominated Shane more than Floyd did. Try again.
