Fans want to see a fight between you and pacman right now right this year.

Fans have been wanting it, but don't blame Floyd:

It was just this week that Arum said he would go to the Philippines to meet with Pacquiao and present him with the names of four possible opponents for May or June: Miguel Cotto, Marquez, Lamont Peterson and Timothy Bradley Jr.
Arum figured Mayweather would be in jail and off the table. Now that Mayweather is available and seemingly would like to make the match, Arum suddenly isn't interested.

He used the lame excuse of the cut Pacquiao suffered against Marquez, saying he might not be ready for May. I've never heard of a cut taking more than six months to heal.) However, earlier this week, when Arum thought Mayweather would be on ice behind bars, he said there (was a good possibility Pacquiao would fight in May.Moments after Mayweather was granted the continuance, Arum changed his tune.

"We're fighting in June, one of the four guys," Arum told me over the phone.
I asked him, now that Mayweather was available, would he at least be part of the conversation when Arum meets with Pacquiao next week? A perturbed Arum's response was, "Absolutely not. Nope."Come again? You won't even talk about it with Pacquiao, I asked very politely.

"My mission is to go over to the Philippines and talk about these four guys," Arum said. "If Manny feels he wants to go in May, he will tell me. I want to make sure Manny's cuts are healed. We won't fall under this kind of pressure. June is much more likely for Manny's fight, not May."So May was a real possibility yesterday, but now there's no way?

"What if they fought and Manny started bleeding on the first punch?" a clearly flustered Arum said. "I don't know if Manny is available to fight in May. I have no idea. I haven't talked to him; I haven't seen him. Seems to me, June is more likely based on what his plastic surgeon said."

Arum threw out another "reason" (or excuse, as far as I'm concerned) not to try to make Pacquiao-Mayweather for May 5.

Hahaha!

Using facts dont matter. Pac fans live in a world of fiction.

[megadeth]

Floyd said he is not interested but I can think of someone .....

It's utterly astounding that all Pac has to do is say he wants the fight and it's believed by so many. They will disregard the MANY excuses made, all the lies told, the fact that he just recently resigned with Rob Arum when he knew it would potentially kill any chance of the fight with FM being made AND it was not in his best interest to do so AND the fact that he declined the fight not once but TWICE! None of that matters as long as they hear it come out of his mouth that he wants the fight. There are no words!

Floyd fans like you skip thru something called facts and talk nonsense.

I will repeat, Floyd said on several occasions:
- I'm NOT interested in fighting Manny.
- I don't want to do business with Arum.


Manny can't twist Floyd's arms, so he needs to get someone else. If you read my post, I'm not thrilled about Algeri. So it's only you Floyd fans who keep on defending whatever crap Floyd throws at you.

This thread is about Floyd saying "I want to give the fans what they want". As far as I know, Manny is not saying that his fans want to see him fight Algeri. [B]Continue to defend your hero, Floyd

Don't twist this.

Floyd is the problem. He moved to Showtime. He said that he is not interested in Manny.

Doesn't Manny say he "fights for the people"? Isn't that the same thing? Do the fans want to see him fight Algeri??
