does Haymon even want Floyd to ban Manny?

    The opponent obviously has a huge impact on sales...Mayweather always talks about his PPV sales with Oscar and Canelo and that's because he had very marketable guys standing on the other side of the ring..
    Don't forget, they stacked their main event As well with ****load of known name boxers that the real boxing fans craves of seeing.

      Before I was optimistic about this fight being made, but now i am certain that it won't happen. Floyd will fight his two remaining matches by carefully picking them with descent PPV followers, ie Khan and Cotto. Retire undefeated and him and Al will use that as their main mantra for their TMT promotion company. Richard is waiting until his remaining days as GB Head honcho is over to avoid being sued again, then Him, Al, and Floyd will make more money than what he would get fighting Manny. Brilliant business minds puling all the strings in their direction. After it's all said and done, we the fans of boxing will get rob from the one of the biggest if not the biggest fight of these era.

          this thread makes no sense. They had a 50/50 deal on the table and manny walked off. Why do you guys keep looking for other reasons as to why they havent fought yet? If floyd/al/shaffeur/oscar whoever didnt want the fight. Why not just price himself out the first time? Sometimes i think yall think too hard on this stuff.

            maybe just maybe floyd was bluffing? i mean we have the last 5 years as evidence. its easy to look like you want the fight when there are terms that your opponent hasn't agreed to. we know when pac agreed to those terms floyd just changed his mind and wouldn't fight yet you keep ignoring that. it was a bluff and he got caught. deal with it.

              So pac agreed to those terms eh. Can you please show me proof of that sir? 50/50 on the table the first negotiations. Please show me a link of pac agreeing to the test in those negotiations when the fight was actually on the table. Not that years later "i'll do it" stuff in the media When no contracts, negotiations or anything has was going on. Or are you just taking pacs word for it? Correct me if im wrong because i believe the first time pac actually took ost was after he got k.o'd.

              im not ignoring anything. Hell you could very well be right and floyd was bluffing. But that doesnt really answer why go to those lengths. Once pac walked off the first time thats a viable excuse, but they went to mediation and Pac still walked. What is it im missing here?

                  ^^^Im with this. Promoters are all about MONEY. Floyd is at the end of his carreer and hopefuly Al Haymon realizes it is time to feed Floyd to the Lion and cash out on him, this is the best time. After Pacquiao then Floyd can have Khan, Garcia whoever, even if Floyd loses he will still be marketable, this is the perfect time Mr. Haymon. Lets get this done!

                    You're missing a bold and very loud accusation of cheating with no concrete evidence. Who would bow down to that?
