Comments Thread For: Mayweather: 2 Losses, Taxes - Now Pacquiao Wants Me

[Kuyukut]

Yes no one can deny there's really something wrong with you. Its tough hearing Roach drag down the Pacquiao illusion in under five minutes isn't it? Poor thing, I feel for you, I truly do.

awwwww, you still mad about the truth. no worries brah, here you go again...

fact is your idol floyd the roided fraud is dead scared but it's ok... eventually you'll accept the truth.

the truth will set you free.

floyd made manny an offer when he accepted testing-you said so earlier. You called it humiliating. Manny refused it because he wanted more money. So its hard to fault floyd for them not fighting when you confirm he followed up with an offer.

Yes, he said manny is interested NOW because of the tax problems-he also said Manny didn't want the fight previously because he refused offers.

when did floyd say that? you can't keep paraphrasing and pass it off as actual quotes.

Not going to look up on the exact wording but Floyd did say what I wrote.


Sorry but
1) Request + Accusations with no proof: Does not constitute a guy, Floyd, who was anxious to fight Manny. Floyd usually waits for after the contract is signed before they do their talking.

but then Manny accepted. Did we have a fight or a spanking brand new roadblock?

2) Manny accepting Testing and also willing to take a bit less money to make the fight: Floyd came back with "I WANT ALL PPV MONEY" because he didn't want to take a chance that Manny may say yes to a reasonable offer or slightly unreasonable offer. Floyd went full throttle on this one!

so the above is what happened INITIALLY (more roadblocks followed and a few in between - all by Floyd!) and why Floyd is to blame. If Floyd stopped at roadblock #1, I would just call it a snag in negotiations but now we are on roadblock 7? 8? 9?

It's just too easy for both Floyd and Manny to just mention the others' name and create a firestorm of attention and press. That's all that this is ever going to amount to. They are essentially each others' "Easy Button" to get some headlines floating around to promote their upcoming engagements.

I'm starting to think they will eventually fight but it will probably look a lot like the geriatric Roy Jones vs. B Hop rematch or something nobody even wants to see anymore. I hope I'm wrong. Despite everything it's still an intriguing match up.

no dude, you paraphrased. not the same.

whenever manny refuses to fight floyd, you hold it against floyd. Whenever another fighter refuses to fight manny you hold it against that fighter. Thats a disconnect that no sane person can rationalize.

The things you call roadblocks are requests that haven't caused any of floyd's opponents, or manny's, to refuse to fight, just manny. That says something about manny, not about the other fighters.

You have two ses of rules, one for manny, your favorite fighter and one for everyone else. The rest of us have one set of rules.

Manny will be dictated to as punishment for refusing 50/50. He will either agree to a deal or he will not. If he prefers to be the a side in smaller fights-his choice. If he wants the fight he will take whatever offer he gets.

WHAT??? Manny wanted 50/50 but Floyd wanted more money so Manny gave in to 45/55. BUT Floyd wanted all the pay per view shares. You always try to twist stories just make up an excuse for Floyd. Come on Big Duck. Keep it real and stop ducking

he didn't take 50/50 so its hard to argue he wanted a fair deal.

Refreshingly energetic and true Freddie! The next one's on Ariza!

You don't avoid the Super Bowl of boxing,
the biggest money fight of the century
if you call yourself Money Mayweather.
It just means you're scared. How ever you
slice it, dice it, marinade it, it will still taste
like chicken.

Moron, every where he goes they ask him about Manny. His daughter could be in ICU at the hospital and people would ask him about a possible Manny fight before they ask him about his daughter well being. You're acting like he just talks about Manny just cause. No one says this every time Manny comes out And talks about Floyd.

People don't ask Manny why he's not fighting Floyd because Manny is as clueless as them why Floyd's not fighting him. Got it?

[mrpizza-nd_beer]

Funny how you say "when Manny was on that monster run" because Floyd has been on a 45 fight run himself. And also has beaten all the worthy opponents Manny did. I'm a Manny fan, but I'm unbiased with my opinions and I think Floyd is right

Now now don't make it look like Floyd was looking like a monster with 45-0. You funny.
