    Did you see his stance on cherrypicking?

    He even criticized broner for picking his own opponent instead of letting his team cherrypick....smh

Floyd hates the guy and would never work with him and doesn't want him earning a penny from him. That's why he has that attitude when asked about Pacquiao. If Pac was not a TR fighter, he'd give Pac nothing but praise. In fact he had nothing but praise for Pacquiao back in the day when he was in TR.

      People think it's ducking, but it really goes beyond anything about Pac or his accomplishments. Deep inside Floyd respects him and knows what Pac has done deserves praise. But just to be spiteful against Arum he won't fight Pac under TR, and he won't praise Pacquiao while he's under TR.

      If you take off your troll goggles, you'd agree with what I am saying.
      so you admit its floyds fault for the fight not happening yet you voted no. you should listen to yourself.

        His point on Broner too. Let your team choose your opponent not yourself. Broner chose Maidana... Now his advice is to Duck and go 140...

            Where do I "admit" it is Floyd's fault?

            Arum and Floyd had a falling out in 2006, over Arum not wanting to make the De La Hoya fight. Floyd bought his contract out in a bitter breakup with TR and never again worked with Arum because he aw how of a snake Arum was.

              It's disappointing and surprising. This will be an unnecessary stain in his legacy.

                Yeah, he is ducking him. He figures what's the point of facing a hard opponent, when he knows he can make huge money by cherry picking his opponents. It'll hurt his legacy in the long run, & he doesn't think it will, but I guarantee when his career is done there's always going to be mentions of never facing Pacquiao.

                    So you are saying since 09 Floyd made excuses not to fight because he had a bitter relationship with Bob.

                    Ah Ok so that's why he has tried hard to not fight pac

                      Simple, leave TR and fight Floyd.

                      No Floyd is not ducking.
                      Bull****. When Floyd refused to fight Cotto in 2008 it was because Cotto was not big enough. No mention of Arum there.

                      Pacquiao could leave Arum and Floyd would still make money an issue. I foresee a legendary low ball offer that Pac will surely refuse.
