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

Then do what I'm a do. Don't order the fight. Problem solved.

I wont but im a boxing fan. I already got robbed of these two fighting 3-4 yrs ago when tey really shuoldve and were 1 and 2 lb 4 lb. at least I wanna see the fight before Pac totlly declines. he fights different style than Pac and wont have a peak as long. he already isn't the same monster he was in 08 -'10. but still good enough to be the only guy who would make a Floyd fight that is very interesting and would still be by far the biggest fight in boxing

are u a boxing fan or his manager? he should fight the top challeneges bc above all, this is a sport! the best fight the best - otherwise, whats the ****** point

I'm a boxing fan, but I'm not on about what I want. I asked you, "why should Floyd risk it?"

There is no reason for him to want to do that.

Rios hasn't done jack **** at welterweight, yett everyone is all worked up about Floyd fighting Manny because Pac beat him. Matter of fact, Rios hasn't done **** at jr welterweight either. See where I'm going with it?

Rios wasn't fighting for the lineal welterweight championship of the world. There wasn't even a paper title in the picture. It was just a tuneup.

Most knowledgably people in the sport do not rank him above those like SRR, SRL, Ali, Duran. He's on the same level as other greats of the past 25 yrs: Pac, Whitaker, Jones

Never said he was the best. He can destroy PAC and I will still not say he's the best. My boxing knowledge did not start with him but I have seen many greats and he is one of them. Will be appreciated when he gone

Broner is more than barely known; he got the 3rd loudest reaction at The One weigh-in. If Maidana beats Broner he's getting the Floyd fight next I will bet money on that

loudest reaction. sigh.....

If Floyd fights Miadana for KOing an already overrated Broner, then **** Floyd.

Mayweather is the best boxer/promoter ever. He doesn't have to take the risk ... But I sure wish he would take the risk anyway. Pacquiao doesn't need floyd for his legacy and Floyd doesn't need to fight Pacquiao to cement his legacy. It only serves the fans and boxing.

[rasdun]

What has Manny Pacquaio done recently to support your claim that Floyd needs to fight him to cement his legacy? Because from where I'm sitting. He's a guy that's won one fight in two years. And that was against a second tier jr welterweight, coming off a loss, and making his welterweight debut.

is this a joke - pleas tell me other than getting caught by Marquez why he doesn't deseve the fight. he schooled Bradley, got ko'd by Marquez in the fight if the yr that he was winning before the ko. and then shutout Rios. all this after he broke the record for titles and lineal championship ( which Floyd just tied). anyone that says pac don't "deserve" the fight knows nothing abuot boxing at all

of course they need each other for their legacy - if Leonard and Hearns never fought their careers wouldn't be the same. plus, as you alluded to, they owe the fans who ut all the millions in their pockets

Eh. I'd be flat out shocked if AB doesn't have a rematch clause in that contract.

I don't think Maidana is as marketable as Khan whether he beats AB or not. Khan has the UK fanbase and has already beaten Maidana, Judah and Malignaggi.

Ortiz got the fight by beating Berto after looking like ***** vs Lamont Peterson and quitting vs Maidana. Al Haymon is all of there manager so that rematch clause would wait for a better event to happen. More people know who Khan is than Robert Guerrero but he fought Floyd also.

lol!!! mayweather will not go down as the greatest of this era.

Ahhh, yes he will. Well, everywhere except Pacland.
