Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Turns His Back on Mayweather Fight, For Now

[Ray*]

Ok so you're not a boxing fan then? You dont want to see the 2 best guys of the last 10 years? I know there are people who will never be happy with what May weather does but this fight still needs to happen regardless.

Yep am not a boxing fan, that's why am suggesting that Mayweather only fought Cotto because he was already beaten "from pillar to post".

only fight undefeated fighters? That would be crazy. Look around boxing. Most of the Best fighters have a loss or two. There are lots of unproven undefeated fighters out there. Canelo was like 35-0 before he fought anyone with a pulse. And once Floyd beat him they said oh Canelo wasnt ready. Look at Wilder he is undefeated does that mean he is better than both Klitschkos? Gamboa is still undefeated but he is not considered by most anyone to be the best at 135 or 130 or 140, same goes for Bradley just to name a few.

Well listening to fans on here Mayweather only has to fight undefeated fighters, one that has never been in wars, a young fighter with loads of experience, one that has faced adversity without losing, one that has beaten the top fighters, so since we have no fighters like that then Mayweather should sit on the shelf or retire again. Am just going with these people's logics.

It's all really simple.

how can you duck a guy that you've already beaten to a pulp? Come on man.

jwheels9876 you duck a guy that you knew you had an unfair advantage over by not fighting him without the unfair advantage.

Manny would not fight Cotto at all without that advantage and went on to get knocked out by a 40 year old fighter who was also smaller.

Manny is exciting with his speed and angles but he is just not too smart of a boxer; hence why he was KTFO by JMM. You don't come forward with your hands down against an experienced fighter like JMM.

Also, further proof that he is not bright at all is when he knows he can get the Mayweather fight but will not leave the guy that have him almost bankrupt!!!

Now if youre a Fan of Pac or just a fan of Boxing, shouldnt you want Pac to be a Free agent when he fights Floyd? Because he would stand to make a lot more money by cutting out Rob Arum, he could form his own promotion just like Floyd and partner with GB and all of his Tax problems would be gone and he'd be set for life

History says Floyd is a Duck..

Mayweather wants drug test -> Pac says 30 days out
Mayweather wants 14 days out -> Pac says 24
Later on, Pacquiao agrees to 14 days.
SO NOW, ALL SHOULD BE GOOD.
Now, Mayweather wants testing till day of fight -> Pac agrees.
SO NOW, ALL SHOULD BE GOOD.
Now Mayweather says he wants 60-40, while Pac wants 50-50.
Some time later, Mayweather says "I'm not thinking about boxing right now".
on JUNE 2013, Pac agrees to 60/40 split.
SO NOW, ALL SHOULD BE GOOD.
Now Mayweather request Pac to quit Top Rank and join Mayweather Promotions in order to make the fight.

What does this add up to? Something is fishy about Floyd. Sounds like a little bit of a ducker.

Marquez didn't look very small to me that night lol...Pacquaio would beat Cotto at any weight from 140-154 in my opinion and I'm a huge Cotto fan.
Marquez and Manny had been in 3 fights that were back and forth in every single round and then a hulking Marquez shows up and lands a beautiful punch..happens to the best of them, people get caught and lose..doesn't take away from what they have accomplished.
You can't just leave a guy you have a contract with. He would be sued, and it doesn't seem he has the money to do that right now lol. I agree Manny is not the most technical boxer but tell me a guy who beat him that didn't take a lot of punishment to do so..Could Floyd get by without taking a beating? Who knows, but I'd sure love to see if he could.

Or Floyd would offer him a lousy deal and the fight wouldn't happen anyway.

Same floydiots justifying their idol's new excuse again.

Whats the saying, 60/40 you'll get your a$$ kicked?

Gonna be more like 80-20 and no PPV and I'll try to avoid exchanging with you....

I don't ever remember Mayweather saying 14 days or anything like that. Mayweather had always said he wanted Random Blood testing. Random meaning it could be at any time with no cut off days. So I don't know where you're getting this info from.
