Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao is Taking Chris Algieri Very Seriously

[uncle pauly]

I dare anyone to answer this question.

Why hasn't Floyd made any of his opponents undergo the scrutiny and obstacles that he throws out to Manny???


Answerin my opinion)...He's scared of losing his "0"...Pure and simple.

I mean,..My god....watch the montage of videos over the last 4 years. They say it all. Floyd sounds like a politician trying to avoid answering the question. It's very obviously a tender spot for him. Why?? It is fear of the posiibility of losing the zero. Or at least having a very tough and taxing fight.

Everyone else bends over for Floyd and PAC. The problem stems from both these guys trying to do the A side stance like they are negotiating with Rios or Maidana.

IMO PAC has been more reasonable in recognizing Floyd is the bigger draw and accepted to take less. I'm not sure how Floyd took that as PAC should drop ARUM, HBO, and take a flat fee. I used to think Floyd knew that this was impossible but Floyd's IQ has been front and center in this last build up. I'm starting to think Floyd really doesn't understand that his demands are impossible to meet contractually.

Could it also be that Floyd, someone who bought out his contract and left TR when Bob told him he couldn't get him what he wanted for the ODH or Cotto fights, can't understand why manny wont do the same thing?

Pac v Algeri. I know im not excited either

It's funny how an article about Manny's fight with Algieri gets transformed into posts about him fighting Mayweather. That being said, thanks for the video. It proves what we and many sports analysts already know; Floyd Mayweather does not want to fight Manny Pacquiao.

Like I said, it speaks for itself. Its not a fanboy video or anything its just a video of both of the fighters doing interviews. Pacquiao has said that hell agree to testing and the money, "anytime, anywhere". Once that happened, floyds response was "I dont work with bob arum". Now that both HBO and Showtime want to co-event the fight, floyds response is, "Showtime gets the fight and FMP is the lead promoter", as if HBO never existed and FMP has any experience in big ppv events. HBO is not gonna step aside just cuz mayweather said so. Mayweather does not own showtime.

[bigjavi973]

They just wont say what is obvious-the main roadblock to this fight is Manny not getting the what he wants. They want Floyd to give Manny what he wants and what they feel Manny deserves. Sorry, but refusing to diefy Manny and give him what he wants isn't a roadblock.

He has agreed to the testing and the money. What is it exactly that he wants? "Anytime, anywhere".

[bigjavi973]

He is asking because Manny's promoter made signing with TR a condition of getting a pac fight. does that mean shane and JMM were seen as a threat?

If its ok for manny to do that to HOF fighters who don't generate as much revenue as Manny, shouldn't it be ok for Floyd (as a promoter) to ask the same?

As for avenging losses-why do you put stock into a line Floyd says during an interview than you do manny actually refusing to fight.

Come on Jas, its one thing to make a funny P4P list but this is kinda ridiculous.

yea, its a shame manny didnt sign with FMP and get a couple of fights in just to fight floyd. Its a shame manny still has marquez problems, while maidana has alexander and khan problems.

[bigjavi973]

Pac is done !! This is why he has not fought anyone with power since getting he mind blown back by Marquez!
Arum knows it, Roach knows as well as Pac. He gotten shook every time after the KO, Tim shook in more then once, and a former 135 pounder fighting at 147 for the first time shook him. Pac chin is gone, and so are his skills. Which is why Arum is trying to make Floyd fight before everyone realizes Pac is gone.

So what is floyd worried about? Promoting the fight? Making sure showtime gets the fight? These are roadblocks buddy.

He got shook cuz according to him, "he walked through cotto", "cotto couldn't knock mosley down but pacquiao could?"

Again with the cotto crap huh? Forget that floydie "retired" after his fight with hatton. Who was the second best ww behind floyd after a victory from mosley???
