Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: I've Waited For Years, It's Up To Mayweather!

[TheRebelSin]

Didn't I read on a BoxingScene that manny said he will not use mayweather name no more during the promotion to this fight because he's being accused of using mayweather's to promote the fight so he wast gonna say nothing about mayweather till after the fight. And now I'm reading 3 new threads pacquaio talking mayweather and even roach got 2 or 3 threads has well. That's crazy he didn't stick to his word.

This is pacquaio saying he won't use his name a month ago or 3 weeks ago..

Pacquiao and his handlers should utilize social media and run a massive campaign calling for a fight with Floyd where the winner will get 100% of the money, and the loser gets 0.

Just run with it, even if it doesn't work. Corner Floyd into having to explain why he isn't confident enough in his abilities to risk a payday. He bragged about how he was willing to bet his entire purse on a win Vs Oscar back in 2007. Remind him of that and ask him why the tune has changed. The guy will clamp up and become a recluse as if he were Britney Spears during her shaved head crisis phase.

I agree. One final putsch all out throwing everything at him.

Play Mayweather at his own game and invest millions trying to get the fight like Mayweather does trying to get out of it.

I have seen Mayweather get smashed by thousands of posters on social media before. He completely ignores all of it. As if the problem isn't there.

Too scared to face it.

[JJRod]

Give it up Manny.
Mayweather isn't going to fight you. He's still too scared.
If he wanted to fight you, the self proclaimed TBE would have done it by now, but he's scared to lose.

But don't worry he'll find a way to throw another ridiculous offer that no one in their right minds would take, and his legions of idiots here would find a way to defend it.

[Anomaly460]

When it comes down to it NEITHER of them REALLY wanted the fight, and the reason is simple economics. Depending on which point of view its from, they're looking at a 60/40 or 40/60 split with each other versus a 90/10 or less split with someone else.

I do agree that the ball is in Floyd's court, but that's because Manny was knocked out and doesn't many lucrative options. I think Floyd will make that his last fight, or the May fight if he needs to strong arm Canelo off the date.

Manny if you want to fight mayweather, who you knew had a contract with Showtime, then why did you sign an extension and exclusivity deal with arum/HBO? Please just give it a rest. Neither of you want to take on a real challenge, there's too much money in you both going your separate ways.

Whats wrong w/ signing w/ Arum & HBO? Manny is a boxer not a promoter. His business is to train & fight. We cant blame him for being loyal to TR. Besides, Tyson & Lewis is on different promotions & network but the fight happened. Why? because everybody wants it, Both sides sitting on the table and best of all, no fighter said 'he don't want to do business with his opponent's promoter"... Floyd is soooo genius. He do knows what to do to protect himself (from something). I admired him for that.

[MisanthropicNY]

I dont know how so many are fooled both sides (including manny not just bob) are making more more fooling the masses with the dangled carrot strategy. It explains why pac is fighting in macau more and why mayweather is rematching an overmatched maidana. I wouldn't be surprised if they were all in on it.

How are both making more money? Floyd made $32-40 million fighting Maidana each time. He was offered $100 mil plus PPV to fight Pacquiao...

Floyd was concerned if he lost to Pacquiao it will kill his ability to make big PPV money. Pacquiao admitted this.

I really don't think Manny is avoiding this fight... he is just not a savvy business person and let's Arum guide his career.. Arum might have believed it was a better move to avoid the fight...

[MisanthropicNY]

Floyd-worshipers always contradict themselves and have double standards for the man they idolize...

If Manny doesn't bring up Floyd's name: "Oh, Manny doesnt' want the fight, he didn't even mention Floyd's name. He just said talk to my promoter."

If Manny does call out Floyd: "Manny is just trying to use Floyd to sell his fight"

LOL even though Floyd has used Manny's name to sell his fights especially the Ortiz fight...
