      Mayweather vs. Pacquiao or NO MORE PPV buys

      SIGN the petition: Mayweather vs. Pacquiao or NO MORE PPV buys

      If Mayweather vs Pacquaio is not made for September 13, 2014, we promise TO NOT BUY a SINGLE ADDITIONAL PPV FIGHT from either Floyd or Manny.

      We understand that up-and-coming fighters need to carefully balance risk and reward. Boxing is a tough business where only a fortunate few make enough to support themselves and their families.

      At the top of the game, however, the rewards are significant and we devoted fans expect these fortunate fighters to RESPECT THE GAME by fighting the best. Today we see this spirit in Provodnikov, Canelo Alvarez, Golovkin, and others. Just think: what would Sugar Ray Robinson have done in Mayweather's position? Who today would take Sugar Ray's Joey Maxim fight of 1952?

      Finally, we love the fighters and we love the sport. In fact, we're huge fans of Manny and Floyd and we blame neither of them for not fighting earlier.

      But, from now on, we're holding them both responsible. Please build this sport we all love.

      Spread the word!!!

        For the most part, I agree with this-these guys aren't getting my money unless they fight credible opponents with great undercards....There was good or interesting fights on the Floyd card, BUT Broner against a scrub and Khan against a guy who ALWAYS falls short on the world stage in Collazo isn't brilliant.
        Floyd/Canelo and Garcia/Matthysse was good and worth it IMO...Pac/JMM 5 with Zou Shimming can kiss my rump....I don't wanna see this recycled fight and IMO if it takes Manny 5-6 times of fighting an old JMM just to PERHAPS get a win over an old fighter, then I can care less...hell, I don't even want to see a Mayweather/Maidana rematch, because we know that Floyd will just use more movement and throw even less combos...just to win easier-does that make it good for us fans-hell no!

        I would rather Pac/Floyd be made. This is going to be impossible with this contract extension-Pac should have just tried to negotiate with Floyd again-perhaps by this time calling him and arranging a negotiation. I don't know why Pac thinks Floyd has to contact him, when in reality Pac hasn't made much effort to get this fight on aside from making charades to the media instead of picking up his own phone and calling Floyd....at least Mayweather attempted....this is all out of hand and both guys realize that they are going to continue taking easier fights until the paychecks decrease.

          The answer to this is easy:

          1. Invent a time machine.
          2. Go back and make Manny agree to 50/50, his choice of gloves, ring size, 10 million dollars per LB over 147 - With a random PED test.

          The End
