Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Pacquiao Must Be SHO PPV, FMP Promoting

[boxingfan1986]

Floyd's interviews are getting beyond ****** now
Contradicts himself, lies, ducks/dodges questions, sidetracks. He talks about every other thing in the world except the question being asked to him.

Jim Gray "Floyd, how do you feel about the pacquiao fight huh, come on, are we looking at a possible May date for you and Manny?"

Floyd "You know first of all I wana thank the fans, I wouldnt be here without the fans, You know I dont care if the fans boo, Im comfortable with ma legacy, you know, My health is more important than the fans recognition, you know. I love ma fans y'all.

Jim Gray "Ok Floyd so how about the Manny Pacquio fight eh?"

Floyd "Uhh Y'know I'm ma own boss, been at the top of the sport for 18 years, you tell me !! you tell me! who been at the top of the sport for 18 years. You name me just one! Just one athlete who done what I did. TBE!"

Jim Gray "Sure Floyd, you're an all time great. So who are you loooking to fight in May Floyd, Manny says he's in negotiations with you, is this true?"

Floyd "uhh y'know 47 and 0, Ma legacy is comfortable, U know I'm just cashing out baby, Adding the finishing touches to ma legacy, I wana thank ma fans, all around the world, I'm doing this for the fans, I wana thank all the fans that bought showtime PPV, Thanks y'all"

Jim gray "Thanks Floyd


F'ucks sake. Its just embarassing listening to Floyd now.

I'm a pretty big Mayweather fan (in the ring), and I felt like Pac and Arum are the reason the first fight didn't go down, but over the last few years, and especially right now, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT IN MY MIND the reason the fight is not happening IS BECAUSE MAYWEATHER IS EITHER SCARED OF PAC or because MAYWEATHER IS SO PETTY he won't work with Arum and Pac and Mayweather should never talk about giving the fans what they want or how it's all about the fans ever again.

I had a blind date last night so I took her to a theater to watch the fight (what a romantic guy I am, huh?) and I thought it was a pretty good fight till the end and watching it at the theater was actually better and cheaper than watching it at home for those curious.

Anyway, if Mayweather doesn't fight Pac next year or before he or Manny lose again, I'm dropping him out of my top 10 all time, and his career will be one big mirage as far as I am concerned. What a ******** bidtch.

He'll get in the ring with Canelo, Mosley, Maidana, Oscar and Cotto at 154, but he's too afraid to fight Manny, who hasn't been KO'ing people in years and who seems to be weaker than in years past (no more peds is my theory, or no more Ariza or something) ??

Doesn't add up but financially we all know it does add up, and it WOULD STILL BE THE BIGGEST FIGHT IN BOX OFFICE HISTORY if it was made, yet Floyd doesn't want that money and legacy? That is why he's not TBE, or even top 10 to me anymore, or at least until he makes that fight.

I dont understand why people are blaming pacquiao for the fight not happening. Pacquiao has never come out with list of demands the way floyd does. All pacquiao asks for is a fair cut and his cleto reyes. Floyd is the one demanding things like extra testing, leave your promoter, sign with TMT. Pacquiao has lost numerous times and got ktfo bad by his arch rival,he's not scared of Floyd.

No doubt floyd ducking manny at this point..

Didnt jim gray put him on the spot and even said showtime/CBS was willing to do whatever (work with HBO) to make this fight,,

Everyone wants this fight except for floyd

[Da Machine]

No one can deny he is ducking at this point. It's clear as day.

Wait for the Meh-hmm gate & ppv to come back, then we'll see how firm Floyd is.

Haymon won't give up any fighters like Garcia/Broner/Porter/Maidana/Thurman for Manny to fight, but after he beats Algeri he still has an option of going after Kell Brook.

[wiz1030]

The only way to be a reasonable Floyd Mayweather fan is to just watch him in the ring, and ignore EVERYTHING about him outside of the ring.

The things he says and does are simply shameful for many reasons.


IF the fight happens, and that's a big 'if,' it would be a joint PPV between SHO and HBO because both fighters are contracted to each network.



Still think Algieri beats Pac and the momentum for the fight dies all the way out

Floyd Jr: I don't want to fight Pacman period!

[megadeth]

Floyd fans claim Mosley turned down an offer to fight Mayweather and somehow the fight still was made.

Floyd was a nobody then. He wasn't even doing 400k on PPV. Not to mention, Mosely has never been seen as a comparable draw or challenged him for attention & PPV sepremacy as Pac did.

[WarMaidana]

this is a clear not sure how anyone can defend this
