oscar vs floyd is not the same as pac vs floyd.....

the fight with oscar catapulted floyd to real star status....

pac's story is miles away...as he earned his feathers and stardom from his previous fights...

fighting and beating floyd will be the icing on the cake...

Ha ha ha , That's what the Fraudster is Afraid of...

Is Roach going to make Floyd take a legit steroid test none of this BS Floyd hires for drug testing those fools hide his dirty test

The Chump owns his own testing company....

No way would FRAUD agree to year around Testing...

The Testing Smoke Screen, saved his A$$, from Pac in 09...

You are a certified floydiot the way you bend some facts here. The fight should happen after Pac demolished Cotto. Back then Pac just did a few millions ppv buys against Oscar, Hatton and Cotto while your boy just came out from his FAKE retirement. Pac by the time just became the first 7 weight divisions champ and 4 divisions lineal champ. What did your boy got? Not to mention Pac was endorsing Nike, HP, Hennessy, etc.. while your boy was selling lame cheap lotto soda.

Floyd is the PPV king becuz he fights Latin champ's fresh off a win and stacks the under card with Latin fighters to sell the fight on Latin holidays. He knows Latins are big boxing fans and will buy the fight on the holidays to support the Latin fighters. But he gets all the credit for the PPV #'s. I wish when ordering the fight they would have a poll asking why are u buying the fight to see Mayweather? Or the Latin opponent? I guarantee Floyd will lose that poll.

Floyd isn't just scared of Manny he's petrified. Him and Sr both know that his shoulder roll defense rolls right into Mannys power and Pac is fast enough to land it unlike these other slower big punchers like Maidana and Canelo. Manny volume punches will eventually overwhelm him as Floyd doesn't have the power to back Manny up and halt his offense. Manny style also favors the scorecards cause dude throws 100 punches per rd.

Floyd is a popshot counter puncher and could present problems for pac as JMM did but ppl seem to forget the major problems JMM faced. It readily apparent by the beatings he took to land those counter punches that Pac style is a legitimate threat to any boxing style. Can Floyd handle Pac power like JMM? I personally don't think so but I've been wrong before.

Floyd says he's a smart business man. He averages roughly 40 million per fight. He stands to top 100 million in this fight. Have you ever seen a"smart business man" walk away from 100 million for 1 nights work? Fear is the only thing to make a man walk away from 100 million in one night.

I can keep going but I'll give y'all a chance to chime in.

Facts: Bob Arum put on a show for the media. The same way Pacquiao agreed to all of Mayweather's testing demands during an interview in ESPN but refused contractually. Please... Everyone knows that it's pure hogwash whether you want to admit it or not. Enjoy your summer Raceman. I haven't forgotten about you and all of your gripes about black fighters.

FACT: Both sides are to blame. FACT: I gripe about fighters of every kind. Son, you would know that if you weren't some drive by once in a while race baiting prick. Hell, I even gripe about morons. That would be you. While you are at it, pea brain, why don't you bring out this so-called list of all these "specific" fighters I gripe about. I wont hold my breath waiting for all 2 of them, one of which I was a huge fan of for over 10 years. Good luck with that. Don't let the door slam you in the ass when you leave.

There are a lot of Heavyweights legends who wants Floyd jr vs Pacman fight!
but, then its Floyd jr who usually makes excuses...Let them fight early next Year so History will settle the issue, whether Floyd jr., deserves to be called Great and undefeated Champ! or Pacman making Boxing History beating the so called Monney man...Let them settle the issue inside the ring!

Unfortunately, they are not on the same level now. Back in 2009,2010 no problem for the 50/50 purse split. Now, I don't think May will agree to that. Maybe 75/25 in his favor but Arum will not agree. Even if Pac wants it to pay his tax problems. As long as Arum will not agree to a much lesser purse for Pac, the fight will be a no go.

As if *****'s even argue fault.

Sure Pac's bit of blame is circumstantial, he wants to fight, chases the fight, publically calls out the fight.

Floyd goes on record SAYING he doesn't want to fight Pac, offering lame excuses like "it doesn't make sense"... OF COURSE it makes sense! Moron!

You do understand the implications of this, yes or no??

He's quackin' all the way to the bank fellas... Floyd LeDUCK! Mayweather.

After all this time, we can still have long threads where we all get upset about this fight not happening and whose fault it was. It just goes to show how much interest there still is after all these years. What a great fight it would be.

I know right lol people just love posting Manny this and Floyd that...it's ab it tiresome.

But I disagree when you say it can still be a great fight, no it can't, Manny is half the fighter he was 3 years ago, he doesn't have the legs, the viciousness or the head movement he once did. That fire that got him from the streets to the throne is almost out. That's why I've said, and I said this last year, the fight will happen at the end of 2014 or some point in 2015, Floyd is feeling confident that he can beat him now.

Same way as ***** boy eventually fought Cotto and Mosley, same old story, why are people still *****ing about it...the fight will happen now and it will be mediocre at best.

Also, good for Holyfield, most of the greats have come out at some stage to say what he just said, Holmes, Hagler, SRL...they all do it
