Floyd Mayweather Jr vs. Manny Pacquiao Master Discussion Thread

[kej718]

It should def be 2 fights and the winner getting 20% more sounds fare. I just wish they put out what was agreed on already and what they are still working on.

Haha, Winner gets all.

Looking more and more like Floyd and Haymon are looking to fight Cotto next, not Pacquiao.

With Floyd making all of those offers, why do people say Manny is the one begging for a fight?

Personally I am of the belief they are both to blame in part. They both played a role (Floyd made a few disrespectful demands, Arum always had a plan for Manny and Floyd wasn't in them). However this is genuinely the first time Manny has called Floyd out. That is why I believe this is the time it happens.

With that being said I think Floyd deserves some serious credit for genuinely trying to fight Pac after Pac genuinely looked like a ferocious animal (Cotto).

If this fight actually happens I'm calling in sick from work, inviting like 20 people over, having a cookout, drinking all afternoon then firing up the projector and screaming until I lose my voice from all the excitement lol!!! Make it happen please for all us fans who've dreamnt of this fight for years now. I don't care if both guys are completely shot, I'd still pay to see it.
