    Why no Mayweather call out post fight?

    Why didn't Manny call out Floyd in the post fight interview? And why didn't Max Kellerman even mention floyd as a possible opponent? He just won the fight to put him back into the mix... Is it just beating a dead horse at this point (i.e. it's a waste of time to call floyd out anymore)... Was bob arum just pissed at MGM and didn't want Floyd to get any more attention?

    All that aside, I felt last night's fight had a special energy to it. I don't know if it was because it started so late at midnight or I wanted Manny to get his title back, but my heart my was literally racing throughout the fight. I don't think any other sport generates this level of buildup and anticipation. It's a true visceral effect. I honestly wouldn't mind Bradley/Pac III... I'd even prefer it to another Marquez fight... Besides Mayweather, really who else is there that can generate that sort of build up?

      What's the point? Sergio has been calling out Mayweather for years and Floyd just ignored him. There's no Arum to deal with; Martinez is willing to bow down to any Mayweather term and conditions. Did it happen? No. So stop this calling out nonsense.

            Floyd's ducking reputation says it all.

                  Accept this fight will never happen....

                  One is with Showtime and the other is with HBO. Add to that, the beef between Arum & GB, Arum and PBF, steroids (testing), and money percentages. PBF is not going to give Paq more money or PPV sales. PBF doesn't lose (in the ring or outside the ring). This fight will NEVER happen. Fans of boxing need to just let it go. It's insanity to continue to talk about something when the only thing that has transpired since is even more obstacles have come into play. IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. ACCEPT IT. Once accepted, we can have more productive conversations. It's depressing that people won't realize the truth (PBF/Paq never going to happen). Regardless of the past and Showtime/HBO working something out. This is very different. Arum et. al. are only talking about PBF and boycotts to promote Paq (future PPV sales). Open up your hands and just let it go. Let the dream of this fight happening go away. Talk about Paq/JMM and PBF/Cotto 2. Those are possible fights. Though I don't want to see PBF fight anymore. No one at 140-154 will beat him. Nothing to accomplish and if he fought Paq it would be an embarrassment for Paq (he'll get KTFO). I do believe there was a time that Paq could have beat PBF, but that is when he was on PEDs. He's off PEDs now. No chance. Love Paq for the fights he has fought/will fight. Love PBF for the fights he has fought/will fight. Just enjoy the sweet science. End of story.
