    He said it would do 'good numbers'. Like I said before it's not who can beat Floyd but who can make the most money now.

      Seen the 1st page and was like

      These delusional Pacman fans thinking that Pacman causes Floyd problems. That'd be thee easiest hundred dollar fight you'd be paying for only to watch Floyd toy with that guy.

        "I never know who im going to fight. I leave that up to my team. My team comes up with the guy, and i go with the game plan."

        -Floyd Jr.

        Whatever happened to im my own boss not hiding behind the promoter?

        He rips pacquiao for basically the same thing he's doing.

        Somebody should end this racist, woman beating, hypocrite already.

          See that's the problem, what you or I believe has no single factor in this. The fact remains this fight would shatter all gate, closed circuit, media coverage, viewership and buyer stats ever made...keep that in mind. The sheer size of this fight alone makes Pacquaio's value to it more than $40 million. Why do companies pay $1.5 million per second for a commercial in the superbowl? Because they are advertising to the largest audience possible, same applies to the talent within the superbowl..them players get financially taken care of for their appearance. If this was a fight that was going to do 1.5 million buys $40 million is appropriate..for a fight expected to sell upwards of 2.5 million buys...sorry it isn't appropriate. They paid Canelo over 3x times what his largest paycheck was to fight Floyd and Canelo has no history of being a real ppv draw. I have heard many quotes on what Paquaio has said and hasn't said, the only thing i've seen is him saying he's ok with testing but wanted a cut off..which still remains he would take the test. You can dictate to people who have no options, you can't dictate to people with options. If floyd ain't satisfied making $125 million for a fight he and many others think is easy work I don't know what to tell ya.


          You closed with the key to all this "YOU CAN'T DICTATE TO SOMEONE THAT HAS MANY OPTIONS!!! and with Floyd being at the top of the food chain he can not and will not be dictated to. Manny is the challenger coming off a very poor PPV showing while Floyd is the man coming off a record breaking PPV. Manny needs Floyd while Floyd's money is already guaranteed no matter who he fights. Manny needs to come to the table like he wants what Floyd has not the other way around. THIS IS NOT EQUAL LEVERAGE!!!

            sorry sorry state of affairs for boxing. khan is getting ktfo, garcia is getting nullified, ggg and martinez are too big and could get lucky, so that wont happen. its too late for floyd to secure himself as an atg, even if he did ever get around to fighting an over the hill,slow pac, it would be too late.
            He will be measured against his opposition, and his level of opponents will define him.

              Dude, manny and his team spent a week talking about fighting floyd perhaps even next. when floyd announced May 5th a month before that you didn't say anything about that announcement making a manny fight impossible. You came up with that now as a defense move.

              Floyd securing May 5th is not the same and you know it. Floyd didn't spend a week pretending to want a manny fight before setting May 5th either. Manny's team did, then suddenly announced he'd be back April 12th the day fte the fight. You know thats BS but you can't bring youself to post it. You just bring up what floyd did to make a nonsensical comparison that you think mitigates manny's actions or absolves his team of all the pre fight BS. It doesn't.

              You dont like to debate me because I ask you to hold manny accountable for his actions without bringing up floyd or anyone else. You have such a hard time doing that.

              There is no debate about who wants the fight. thats just you trying to spin this into a comparison of actions. The question was do manny and his team's actions suggest they want the fight like they said during the week leading up to Rios?. the answer is no-regardless of what floyd and his team did or do.
              I love to see this biased flomist playing the smart guy with lots of hypocrite arguments.

              Pacquiao fights Cotto --> Cotto was never the same after Margarito
              Floyd fights Cotto --> Cotto is better than ever

                Floyd is his own boss*. As his own boss*, Floyd decided that he likes other people making decisions for him, so he lets others boss him around. But that's only because he likes it that way. Make no mistake, Floyd is still his own boss!*


                *Floyd reserves the right to change the definition of the word "boss" at anytime, because bosses don't follow other people's rules and definitions.

                      Will not pay to watch this fight. Insult to boxing fans

                      Mayweather is hungry for a KO and Khan's chin provides him with that opportunity.
