      manny wanted floyd at 147. so what if manny move down to 140.

      manny got a fight in november. and no one knows who will floyd and manny will be be fighting in 2015. its too early.

      right now we are just making some predictions about everything. and its rather silly.


      No one is being silly but Manny and his team. How is everyone so disjointed that you have his promoter on record saying that they wanted to fight Danny Garcia and that everyone was on board with it including Al Haymon, but then his trainers and his manager are both saying he is going to 140, then you have Jesse Vargas who met with Arum saying they told him he is getting the fight.

      If they wanted to fight Floyd they would have started negotiating it at some credible level. Did Arum not say that Showtime was working with HBO on this? Wheres the fruit? What has come of it if he was even telling the truth? Something would have manifested at this point even if at the least it was Floyd turning down an offer, something that would have let people know they were serious and not just giving more lip service.

      At this point with everything they have been saying, it's pretty much a given Manny won't be fighting at 147 next year. And he won't be fighting anyone good at 140 as they are all moving to 147 next year, as Peterson, Garcia, Broner, and Matthyse have already stated their intentions to move up.

      I would also bet that he does in fact fight Jesse Vargas, as it is the modus operandi of Top Rank to secure Manny's next opponent before he has fought his current foe. They have done this for every fight in the last 6-7 years.

        I can't believe that guy said that. There is no contest as far as their respective competition.

            They think Mayweather should fight GGG and that Algieri, Crawford and Alvarado are legit fights for Pacquiao. Let that soak in.

                  I think we see Mikey Garcia vs Pac next year and if I was Pac I would be weary. That one would have Arum Robbery written all over it..

                    You might be correct, time will tell (don't hold your breath). I can ignore Vargas, but I can't ignore the fact that Roach has been saying Manny will be moving down since the Bradley fight. I can't ignore Roach saying "We don't want Khan, we want Danny Garcia." I can't ignore that Mayweather has plenty of other money-making opportunities (Cotto, Canelo, GGG, and Khan) without involving Arum. I can't ignore Mayweather threatening to fire his father/trainer for saying Pacquiao is next. My money says no Mayweather fight in 2015.
                    you're right..and i've stopped accepting excuses...FROM BOTH SIDES!
