And you call putting mayweather to shame by blasting him in a foot locker commercial begging? Wasn't mayweather the one who went on ShowTimeand fighthype weeks after Manny did the commercial calling Manny out and acting like hes the one now who wants the fight. Is that considered begging or only when Manny does it. First floidiots say oh but he doesn't call him out doe.. he doesn't want it, then he calls him out in interviews for years and floidiots say oh well he dont call him out after the fight doe he doesn't want it, then he calls him out after his fight and even does a commercial making fun of him for ducking and now its considered beggin? But not when mayweather does it right? Floyd needs the fight more than Manny remember the may date is what he cares about and the whole world thinks hes a coward until he steps up to Manny challenge

Again. Youre overthinking this.

"Floidiots" would say Manny didnt really want the fight because TeamPac would talk "mayweather this, floyd that" throughout the entire build-up for past fights but once the fights past, Bob would say "not intetested" to a floyd fight. And thats a fact.

It wasnt until after Algieri that TeamPac changed the pattern and publicly stated their interest in the fight. Floyd goes on showtime n states "may 2nd lets do it", Bob counters, "thats disrespectful..." in that very sequence is exactly how it played out, dont lie to yourself.

Either way i hope this fight gets made. Floyd says he wants it, i know Pac wants it, Bobs being objective.

He could push and beg all he wants , he knows he is fighting vargas next

Pacquiao is handling this whole thing incorrectly. The more you push for the fight the more money chicken Floyd would demand. Pacquiao should just be on ignore mode and stop answering questions about TBE. Pacman has already won the legacy battle. Let TBE stay looking like a duck and let him beg for the fight, instead of the other way around. If TBE doesn't want it, who tf cares?

How do you figure hes fighting Vargas if the mayweather fight doesn't get made? Terrance Crawford was also told he was a plan b option to fight Manny. Who do you think they would choose, Vargas who has never headlined or co headlined an hbo card, or fighter of the year Terance Crawford who just so happens to be moving up to 140 the same time pacquiao is moving down to 140 if he can't get mayweather to grow balls. Manny has never fought on ppv someone who hasn't at least headlined or co headlined an HBO card, so why would that pattern change when it wouldn't make any sense and nobody wants to see it? Algieri was the least popular opponent he has fought in years and he co headlined an HBO card where he beat the feared ruslan provodnikov. Vargas doesn't even have a big win on his resume. I hope you come back when Manny doesn't fight him and admit you were completely wrong and I will do the same

Everyone conveniently likes to leave out the fact that during the same press conference arum also said he wouldn't stop the fight from happening if mayweather insisted on fighting may 2nd. That is a pretty huge detail that you guys love to ignore

Manny has tried that method before and people say he doesn't want to fight him and Floyd is guaranteed 32 million, he even said himself a month ago he'd rather fight two bums he gets paid either way. I think the public pressure he is putting on him is working because now he's looking dumb by these reports saying arum is working to get the fight dine and Floyd isn't even at the negotiating table. He basically lied to the public once again, but hopefully he will cave into the pressure I think that's the only thing that will work. #fightpacquiao was even trending on twitter for awhile, and after the foot locker commercial is when Floyd finally said he wants the fight, even though just weeks earlier he made the fight two bums opponents so it has to be working

[djtmal]

Plus why would he need to put any more pressure on arum when its been widely reported that arum is the one putting the pressure on ShowTime to make a deal and Floyd hasn't even come to the negotiating table. What more pressure does he need to do? Alls he can do is pressure Floyd and shame him through the media like he has been doing and hope like the rest of us he grows a set of duckweather family ***els and comes to the table and actually negotiates fairly which is another huge doubt.

floyd like he say he's his own boss, so hopefully he's sitting down or at least preparing to sit down the the key players and make a negotiation...he should know he can't sell cotto 2, maidana 3, or even khan in the us, and he did respond to pac's call out once, thats all thats needed...satisfying the laundry list of floyd demands yeah thats another ordeal in and of itself....

"I say this to you today and I really believe it and its true, that since Ali, there hasn***8217;t been a better fighter, better boxer than Floyd Mayweather. This young man has the teqhnique and the ability which puts him in my book ahead of such greats as Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Marvin Hagler and all the other great fighters that I***8217;ve seen in my career. And there is NOBODY that combines all the skills of Floyd mayweather." -BOB ARUM

This is why Bob will not let Manny anywhere near Floyd Mayweather Jr. Arum knows what will happen.

Here's a clue: I DO NOT want whatever you're smoking. And I doubt many would.
