Comments Thread For: Mayweather Jr. To Finalize Foe - Says "Pacquiao Who?"

[maguirre]

Man the guy is angry. He's angry people are pushing Pacman to him.
He's clearly not the kind of guy who would gladly welcome such fight.
He's not Ali. He's not Tyson. He's not that kind of boxer.
They need to leave this guy alone.

Yep. People need to move on and stop mentioning this fight once and for all.

And the DUCKIN BEGINS !!!!!!!

KHAN was Pacs sparring partner

Khan can't take a Punch, and this qualifys Him as the Perfect Showcase....
To Make Our Hero, the Monster FRAUDSTER Look Good!!!

The ppv buyz dnt mean nothing,i just think people are tired of. Pac fighting the rios and may fighting the guerreros of the world..it doesnt mean if pac and may actually got in the ring they break the all time ppv recprd i believe...mayweather vs khan wont break 1mil,niether did may vs guerrero

But Pac hasn't been fighting the Rios types. His last three fights were against elite opponents. The last time he fought a no hoper was Margarito. And I didn't say he had to break a million. Traditionally, 500k buys was a great number. And only popular heavyweights and DLH could even think about approaching a million. Floyd is still doing huge numbers, and so was Pac before losing thr preception that he was a threat to Floyd.

But either way, none of that matters. The fight isn't gonna happen until GBP and TR mend some fences. And that thing runs a helluva lot deeper than a professional rivalry. So the best case scenario is Pac not re-signing with Arum. One can choose to believe the fight isn't happening for whatever reason they want. But I think most logical thinking folks can see that its a network and promotor issue. Everything else is like I said WWE bull****.

Unfortunately Mayweather shuts Garcia out. And I like Danny, and think he's actually earned the shot much more than Khan has. He just doesn't have the right style/speed.

Khan is a joke fight, but it would be interesting to see just for the speed factor in the first few rounds. Floyd would probably end that fight in a KO though. I've given up on him fighting Pacquiao.

I won't put Pac in it. Because publically he rarely says anything. But Arum and Roach have been doing the same thing since Pac fought Cotto. During Pac's promotions, Arum starts chirping about Floyd. After the fight, Roach starts thumping his chest saying "we want Floyd." And in the middle of all that, usually within a couple days, Arum quietly announces an HBO date for Pac, knowing Floyd already has another date lined up. In the next couple weeks, Arum will start saying he's open to negotiations or even say he's started negotiations. Or, since Floyd is saying that he's gonna be announcing something soon. Arum will soon come out saying he's placed several unreturned calls to the GBP offices. Its the same **** all the time. And he banks on Floyd's haters eating it up. Because the reality is, a pretty sizeable percentage of Pac's "fans" are a lot bigger Floyd haters than Pac supporters. Want me to prove it? How many PPVs did Pac-Rios do? I guarantee you it wasn't 800k-1m. And that's because going into that fight, Pac wasn't seen as a threat to Floyd. With Pac as a precieved threat to Floyd, Pac does a million PPVs with a broomstick.

i think the floyd "haters" are a bigger % of floyd's ppv .... lmao. people want to see him lose. Timothy bradley is a threat to pacquiao let's say, that doesn't want to make me buy his PPV. btw... lots of pac fights did under 1 mil. the bradley,hatton,clottey fights. pac doesn't need help from floyd fans, he's ok on his own.

Remember, I'ts not who can beat Floyd but who can bring in the most money! Showtime gotta pay Floyd his money.

[hitking]

Yesssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


There we have it. Floyd is ducking Danny Garcia. I was waiting patiently for this.

LOL!! I remember a day when Khan was trained by the legendary Freddie Roach, Floyd was ducking him too. My how times have changed.

I think Pac did 800k-900k with Clottey. He did well over a million in the third JMM fight. His numbers have steadily decline since that fight. Do you not find it ironic that that was the fight that raised eyebrows as it if Pac was a legit threat to Floyd?

He wants no part of Pacman

Hmm... Pacquiao who?... Doesn't sound like a guy who wants to fight pacquiao to me. Whether Mayweather would win or loose is irrelevant. If they fight or not is irrelevant. It's clear he doesn't want to fight Pacquiao and probably never did. We can all make gueses why he doesn't want to fight Pacquiao (scared, thinks Pacquiao is on PED's, doesn't think it's worth the risk, doesn't want bob arum making money off of him...etc.) but the fact that he doesn't want to fight him is irrefutable.

[mrpizza-nd_beer]

Yeah, Floyd hides behind the Arum excuse. From where I came from having a lot of excuses just means you don't want nothing of it. Arum, blood testing, money split, has to fight this or that, or has to sign up with TMT...crazy coward, man. Just stfu and fight Khan already so Showtime can kick your ass to fighting someone who can at least break even the bank.
