The problem is that Manny thinks he is as big as Floyd # wise but he is not. Each time he felt like he was too big to accept or negotiate Mayweather's terms. Why should I believe Manny wants to fight when he won't compromise to make the fight? He is simply not pulling the #'s or making the money Mayweather is. 50/50 is not an option for Manny at this point.

lol, you act like Manny is just some run of the mill fighter from BFE with no legacy, no fans, and isn't a draw himself. You're putting him on the level of Omar Figueroa saying he should accept a flat fee. You say Manny has never made 40 million. Last I checked, no fight is going to guarantee Floyd the money he can make with Manny, easy money at that. All this crap about Floyd being the A side is just that, crap. These are the two biggest names in boxing. Not just one big name and one guy who nobody knows. I could understand the crappy point you're trying to make, but Manny Pacquiao is revered world wide and isn't just some run of the mill johnny come lately to the sport.How is 40 Million as an offer a duck move? Manny doesn't even make that much after his fights with all the #'s tallied in. Not to mention dude said through the press that he was willing to take less than Floyd. Let's face it. Many ain't on Floyd's level business wise to be expecting more. He had his time which came and went. Both times fight could have been made, Manny walked away not Mayweather. Pacquiao fans act like you're supposed to roll over and bend over backwards for Pacquiao. Pacquiao is not The A side.
With that, here is Floyds legacy.

And fighting Rios after a KO proves what? Shouldn't he fight and beat a big, fast puncher first before getting in with a fresh Floyd?lol, you act like Manny is just some run of the mill fighter from BFE with no legacy, no fans, and isn't a draw himself.

What's the hurry? Plus Arum's in the way. Always has been.
If Manny breaks away from Arum after 2014 I think we could see it happening, and that's IF Manny continues to rack up wins and/or titles.
It would be a much bigger fight between the two of them then.Comment

Manny was beating dudes who were big and fast punchers since 2000. Floyd balked. End of story. How many guys does Manny have to beat to finally "deserve a shot" at Floyd?And fighting Rios after a KO proves what? Shouldn't he fight and beat a big, fast puncher first before getting in with a fresh Floyd?

Since 2006, Floyd has fought 7 times, Manny 17. Think about that.Comment

Did you NOT READ the mans post ? Use your brain mang. Jr called Pac he didn't set up an appointment or make any move to meet and negotiate, he just called and off the cuff offered the 40 mill but of course he wanted the ppv money that would top out at over 160 mil, but, I understand if you, Dunn, Imdazed, *****king and others can't get it. Some folk are just major dumbazzez.How is 40 Million as an offer a duck move? Manny doesn't even make that much after his fights with all the #'s tallied in.

It was a great deal for jr, but a sorry deal for Pac.Comment
