    Pac vs May whos responsibility is it to push for this fight?

    Both May and Pac seem fine with not fighting each other and neither seem in a rush to make this fight. due to Pacs recent Monetary issues and his lack of PPV draw you would imagine he probably needs this fight more.

    Shane Moseley really wanted the floyd fight so much so he entered the ring after the JMM fight to stir up so hype and intrest, i believe the fight would not of happened if Shane didnt do that. after maragarito he was avoided for 12 months, Pacqiuao had a chance to fight him, am while im sure he would of done, his camp/promotors refused to make the fight even with an 80/20 split in pacs favour. Until floyd eventually fought him Shane was being avoided despite how vocal he was about wanting to fight everyone!

    my question is this, if Pac really, really wants this fight should he drop his nice guy persona and enter the ring after floyds next fight to stir up some intrest? frankly i think the may vs pac buzz has died down a lot. infact i think there is more competitive and bigger fights out for floyd, maybe less so for pacqiuao.

    like with Ali vs Liston, Leornard vs Haggler and with Shane vs Floyd, sometimes to create a fight the challenger/ underdog has to do a lot of work to make it happen, so is it floyd or mannys responsibility to make it happen??.

    In my opinion its Pacs, he is less of a draw, is lower P4P and arguably needs this fight more.

    Pacquiao should be calling him out at every opportunity to get under Mayweathers skin like Hatton did.

      If it's bad and it happened it's Floyds fault.

        It's Floyd responsibility because in his own words, he's his own promoter.

          Yeah, history has shown that the easiest route to a Mayweather fight was through a public challenge. Worked wonders for Williams and Margarito.

            Mayweather said that he won't fight Pac as long as Pac's with Top Rank. Also it's the promoters (Top Rank, Golden Boy, and TMT) that should be pushing for that fight. so as long as this Cold War between Top Rank and Golden Boy continues the less likely this fight and other high profile fights ever happen.

              Doesn't want it

              People should stop listening to all the excuses made: Floyd doesn't want to fight Pac, that's it, it's not really hard to see. He tries to convince people that Pac isn't worth it, that he lost twice recently, etc. That's just BS. He doesn't wanna to loose his aura of invincibility, he figures he'd put to much at risk. It's just sad because he would have good chances of dominating Pac and make himself an even bigger star. Not fighting Pac is something that will follow him even in retirement.
