    I disagree with your sarcasm and your lack of logic. When you are ready to offer a valid opinion without child-like behaviour, then feel free to talk.

    Sure, I like to watch Floyd's fights-what's your issue with that? I don't worship the guy, so keep in in perspective.

    If you don't like these fights-don't watch them. If you adore Rios/ Pac, etc...feel free to watch it.

    As fans we show our support or lack of through ppvs, just like a vote that can be excercised. I noticed though that all I see from you is b1tching and moaning-it gets old and the fact that you thrive off of it seems to be the trait of a childish nature. You carry on and on and on-just make sure to take a breath here and there or you'll choke....it would be a shame. =)

      Of course Floyd chooses his opponents wisely. Who would give a tougher match...Lara or Canelo? You can make a valid argument that it would be Lara. However, do you really expect Mayweather to fight Lara instead of Canelo? Let's be serious. At this point in his career, he is motivated by the fights that will make the most money for him. I thought he told you that's why it's called PRIZE FIGHTING.

      Who would you have rather he fought than Canelo? A big, young, good boxer coming up with a large fan base. There was NO BETTER ALTERNATIVE. This was obviously a great move since it broke records. Would a fight with Lara have broken any records? Haters.

      Why are so many bigger fighters calling Floyd out. Aren't they attempting to "Cherry Pick." They are in a sport that is dangerous and they want as much money to do it as possible.

      So now who is Floyd left with to fight? Please say Pacquaio..and then go ask Pac why he's choosing to fight in April instead of campaigning for the fight with Mayweather in May. I haven't heard this man say one serious thing about wanting to fight Mayweather in May. You pacroaches are begging for something that your boy doesn't even want.

        Manny Paquiao will be remembered as one of the greatest fighters of all time, if not the greatest, while Floyd is quickly forgotten.

          Great point. Competition wise, I could see Lara being more difficult, but who the hell knows Lara and who would pay for that garbage. Hell, Guerrero and Floyd would have more action tbh.

          It is also a fact that Canelo was ranked higher than Lara, has a bigger appeal to mainstream fans, and held a title.

          Lara in the meantime has had up and down performances. It is all about who makes the most business sense while being able to be involved in the best logical fight. Now saying all this, Rios was suppossed to make the most sense for PAc, but cents was all it made....All of these guys who hate Floyd will always hold him to a higher standard than their fave fighters-that speaks volumes.

            Currently Manny is remembered for being on the highlight reel end of the worst ko in many years while Floyd has just had a highly successful event with the then best ranked fighter outside of Floyd's weight class at JMW.....you guys have screwy logic.

              you mean that reserving an april date is a way of avoiding a mayweather fight. mayweather reserves date even though he still dont have an opponent. same with pacquiao. not like they'll get sued if they wont fight on that particular date. if ever a negotiation happen, then they'll discuss on what date they'll fight either be april or may. mayweather and pacquiao are boxing biggest stars. all other boxers adjust their schedule so it will not conflict with floyd or pac. it is a show of consideration to reserve date months before. even mma are aware of floyds and pacs schedule.

                The very fact that you have people on these forums begging for Floyd to fight MW and then expecting Manny to fight JWWs says it all....oddly they expect Floyd to do greater, but try to convince others that Pac is fighting ATGs in Rios!

                  you dont really have to remember anything. boxrec remains forever. any arguments wont erased what is in boxrec:
                  1.division title
                  pacquiao 8 >>> mayweather 5

                  2.lineal title
                  pacquiao 5>>> mayweather 4

                  3.HOF face
                  pacquiao (just add barrera, morales to their common opponents)>>> mayweather (common opponents)

                    This is why people are hating on Pacquiao. He has the most annoying stans in this forum. Please give some credit to Floyd. He beat Canelo who is a much better boxer than Rios.


                    Mayweather would beat Pacquiao.

                      I agree with what you're saying. But my point is why is it that Mayweather revealed he is fighting in May quite awhile before Pacquaio announced when his next fight would be, yet Pacquaio's team never once mentioned wanting to be considered for the May fight? They right away said they are fighting in April, and Arum gives some BS about someone needing to contact him about a Mayweather fight. Of the two, we all can agree Mayweather is the bigger draw. Instead of announcing that April date so quickly, shouldn't Arum and Pac have contacted Mayweather's people about the fight in May?
