Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: I Have One Specific Goal, To Get Mayweather

[elfag]

Here's my take. You can place blame on whoever you want, but I feel that Pacquiao really wants to fight, and I question if Floyd has ever been serious about fighting Pacquiao. I just don't think he has ever wanted it.

floyd called pac. all he got was talk to my promoter, bob arum

I honestly believe Pac did want the fight once upon a time, but he didn't force the fight. As easy as it is to hate Mayweather because of his past antics, Floyd swallowed his pride in negotiations and bent big time. Floyd was adamant about not giving a 50/50 split, but he did so. He also agreed to Pac's demands of ring size, glove size, and weight penalty. He even came off of his stance of he and Pac having to do OSDT all the way up to the day of the fight. But Pac walked.The second time around Mayweather swallowed his pride again and personally called Pac to make him an offer. Pac didn't try to negotiate or even say we'll talk after I consult with my people. Pac simply said he wanted 50/50 and hung up. And then Pac continues to tell the world that he'll take less and even fight for free, but when it's time to negotiate it's a different story.

Why do you think Mayweather is now saying he doesn't want to fight with him. I don't think it's that he doesn't want to fight him, I think he just doesn't want to do business with him. And I think if any of us would have dealt with that same situation when we are the "A" side we'd feel the same way.

where do you get your facts from? Or is it something you just want to believe?

If you're still bringing up that staged phone call with the ridiculous offer...

Or if you're still bringing up random-blood testing... you're a Floyd fantard and you'd rather see Floyd protect his health rather than want Floyd to take on the biggest challenges for his legacy...

Can we agree that this ship has sailed, burned, and sunk?

I'd rather want to see Khan next for Mayweather. I'm sure Floyd fans would agree with me.

Floyd dont live in your fanboy world.

Apparently he lives in yours where there is no room for the proven fact that he and Pac have been blamed for the fight not getting made. You're over 60 years old. Too damn old to be living in a fantasy at that age

Floyd fanboys: he turned down 40 mill doe...he don't want the fight....oh snap it's not 2010 anymore?

Yup...says the guy who said he will fight for free, but turns down a guarantee of $40,000,000......sure.
