Comments Thread For: Pacquiao, Top Rank Extend Contract To December 2016

[Shambrolic]

Why couldn't Konzc do something creative like give Pacquiao a work release type of deal for the Mayweather fight? It's kind of crappy that Pacquiao will only fight the same foes for two more years.. who's interesting for him to fight?

I think this is the last year I be watching Pac...

LOL @ the Floyd groupies. Floyd under any circumstances was never going to fight Pacquiao, not in 2009, 2014, or ever. If he wanted to fight him it would have happened a long time ago given the type of purses that would have been involved. The guy has been on record voicing his displeasure about a possible fight with Pacquiao and calling himself a coward FFS.

This ship has sailed. Floyd not fighting Pacquiao won't be the only dubious sh%t that he'll be remembered by, albeit it will be the most infamous one.

Or Floyd can just call Manny's 24/7 hotline. Toll-free.

Co-sign all of this.

The idea that someone should leave their promotional company on the off-chance that a guy who has said he doesn't want the fight will fight him, is crazy.

There were other reasons for him to become a free agent besides just Floyd. You keep trying to ignore that fact.

Well, you keep ignoring who started the cold war. Wouldn't have to worry about free agency too much before that did we?

[[T][B][E]]

Pac-Jmm 5 contract signed: "We want Floyd next"
Pac- Bradley 3 contract signed "Our phone line is open 24/7 Floyd"
Pac - Prov contract signed "Floyd is scared, he wont call us"
Pac - Rios II contract signed "I told Arum we will fight floyd for free"
Pac - M.Garcia contract signed "We called Floyd but there was no answer"

In other words "hes still ducking me so you must watch my fights".

If all else fails, pull the "Mayweather is ducking" card. Just pretend that Mayweather doesn't exist for a minute. If you were in Pacquiao's shoes, and you were in a position to fight fresh and new opponents like, Canelo, Lucas, Khan, Porter, Maidana, Thurman, DSG, etc on PPV or you have the options of multiple rematches with Marquez, Bradley, etc. What would you do?

That's not what Oscar and Bob say.

Haymon is a roadblock but Floyd was a much bigger one in terms of making the Pac-FMJ fight, you only have to listen to his constant excuse-making, so it's irrelevant.

I have to hear the details yet but as it stands right now...F pacman. talking all that **** about fighting FMJ. In all the F'ing years he never never never convinced me that he really wanted it, never. He just opens his mouth when there is a camera in front of him talking BS.

he is a salesman he has his charm, but i have lost respect for him. Espinoza said that a fight was possible if he left Arum. Honestly i've got more respect for Amir Khan than pacman at the moment. The thing is at HBO the roster is played out. There is no challenge at HBO. Is he gonna do some more weightdrain tactics vs Martinez and ask him to fight him at 150???

If he was as real as he followers claim, he would have tested himself against some of the new hungry talents out there. Porter, Thurman etc. Im disgusted and sad another superfight isnt gonna happen.

Cristiane Cyborg please your my only hope, for a superfight :-) :-)
