    Floyd and Manny have never been the problem according to Alex Ariza it was and always has been Arum. Floyd will not work with Arum so what is the point in even talking about this?
    Manny should have left Top Rank a long time ago or just fought an a fight by fight basis like Cotto did, but he resigned until 2016.

      If Manny gets past Algeri i think it has to happen...fight Manny to unify the ww division..then in September fight the cotto-canelo winner for the middleweight title

        Team pac will think the canelo thing gives them the upper hand and will reject fight....again, and NSB will say its Floyds fault

          Here comes the 2009-10 rhetoric on Manny is "ducking" this fight. We're in 2014. That was FIVE YEARS AGO.

          So let's list them:

          Needles
          40 Mil Hang up
          Stadium
          Bob Arum
          Roach

          YAWN............................

              I think Floyds May surprise is a Mexican fighter on the under card (Marquez? Chavez Jr.?) still don't know what their contract situations are like but that is the best thing he could do to keep that date, and force HBO to move the fight. Or he could just offer Cotto more money they what will they do?

                Man would have a great case for top 5 all time great if he did that and won them both.

                  if arum will work with floyd but floyd won't work with arum that makes it floyd's fault.
