      exactly what i said, notice the diehard floyd faithful were the first ones in here to declare that its now all pacquiao's fault. last time i checked he wasnt the one who directly said no to the fight. some diehard *****s are still holding on to a hope that if pac signs to goldenboy, mayweather will finally accept the fight. yet it didnt happen years ago when they both fought on HBO. lets just cut it out, this fight will never happen and if it does it will end up like RJJ-hopkins 2 (aka pointless)

          Well I wouldn't say the fight would be pointless, but Pacquiao clearly isn't at his best anymore so the problem is we'll never know who would win if they were both in their primes. If Floyd fought Pacquiao in 2009 or before that I truly believe Pacquiao would have won. If they fight now, I think Floyd would likely win. But even now Floyd still doesn't want the fight, which is pretty sad.

Didnt bradley just resign??? The floyd fight would have NEVER HAPPENED people.... didnt floyd ALREADY change the tune to "hes fighting me just for taxes" ..... Come on people it never happend whne they were BOTH on HBO and it will NEVER HAPPEN...
            What lead you to believe this when the evidence points to the contrary? Floyd has fought all the fighters he's deemed duck once they left Top Rank. Manny's re-signing is a bad decision on its own, even if it doesn't mean fighting Floyd. His chance for climbing out of the financial hole he's been in for the last couple of years has been severely diminished.

            This was an opportunity for him to grab a hold of the rest of his boxing destiny- promotional wise and monetary wise-and he missed the boat, if the presumption turns out to be true.

              Why...just why. 2 years 75 million? If he fights once in 2 years it might be worth it...otherwise.....why?

                Floyd has openly said that he believes that Pacquiao doesn't deserve the fight anymore. That's why

                  can we really blame the guy, boxing is a business to floyd mayweather. why earn your 40$ MIL against a tough challenge, when u can earn it fighting a lesser easier opponent? like floyd says, easy money. is what it is.
