    The answer to the "challenge" is simple one; he "can't step on the plate" because Pacquiao refuses to accept the fight.

    -He refused the fight in 2009, over even the notion of random testing.
    -He refused the fight in 2010, over the idea of being tested 30 days till the fight.
    -He refused the fight in 2012, over thinking that $40m was too little a payday.
    -He and his camp seemed to have refused $40m + 35% of the PPV upside.

    The fight has been offered up, with final contracts on the table several times, yet it's been Pacquiao who has refused to "step up to the plate". The charade needs to stop; Top Rank/Pacquiao never wanted the fight, and they don't want it now.

    Should just call up Marquez, offer him a 50/50 split of the take ($10m + 50% of the upside on the fight, if Top Rank is unwilling to split things 50/50), put on Pacquiao-Marquez 5, and be done with it.

      I havent been this confident the fight will happen...ever.

      40 mil + 35% upside is a great offer. They can plead their case and fight for more but they cannot walk away.

              No. For team pac 40 mil + 35% upside is great.

              For Floyd thats a regular fight.

              Fight is coming

                it's a very simple question. "if i'm easy to hit, then why keep on ducking a money fight? what's the answer?

                  Can we stop with all this ppv% bullshit? Seriously, you guys care so much about how much ppv% and not even realize that when the fight do happen, us fans are the ones that going to get fucked in the ass, because most likely this PPV is going to cost $100 or more! Instead of debating about how much we should pay for ppv, you guys are debating about who should get paid more, pathetic! Worry about our own finances not theirs!

                    Never once thought it would be lower than $100.

                      Interesting analogy but its the opposite. Mayweather dropped his belt instead of fighting Pacquiao, as did Bowe instead of fighting Lewis.
