      Considering pac is more goat than floyd could ever dream, and he came up with the idea, theres one already that would accept... Himself

          The old "if he jumped off a bridge argument", huh? Very creative TS

          Floyd should stop ducking and finding poor excuses not to fight him.

            Calling an Italian a "squirrel" isn't the same as calling a African American a "MONKEY".


            You can hate Money and his ducking ways, his negotiating ways, and his overall attitude but when it gets to using racist comments....it's below the belt.

            When I confronted the poster with the comment, instead of apologizing all he could do is show a gif of some Sesame Street character transitioning into 50 cent in a drop down because he's a coward and I know he would not say that "MONKEY" comment to the face of any African American....lest of all I know he wouldn't say it to my face cause he would get hands laid on him.

            M4RK, do not call no black person a MONKEY...please, thank you.

                Floyds ranked higher by most reputable boxing historians....that's a fact. What people on NSB think really is irrelevant.

                  So black people don't use the term, "monkey see monkey do"?

Both sides are ******ed and I blame every single person involved in those camps, but you won't. I'm just glad you answered the question that the thread was about.
                    Floyd is the only guy who has consistently put up roadblocks. Even when Manny has agreed to his terms time and time again, he makes up new demands.

                      So you're saying an a list fighter would give all PPV money to his opponent even when he has achieved just as much, if not more and is just as recognized?
