Comments Thread For: Team Pacquiao Give Mayweather Talks Until Month's End

[Rath]

We couldve been done watched the mega-fight, and probably two subsequent rematches had Pac not been afraid of testing positive for PEDs.

Instead, Pac ran from tests and into Dr. Sleep's right hand.

Still does not deny the fact that you have learned a lot since then. are you refuting my statement?

26 days left of this charade. February 1st cannot come soon enough. Pacquiao will fight Vargas in April and Mayweather will fight Cotto in May for the lineal MW title. Similar situation to the last time Mayweather/Pacquiao engaged in serious negotiations in 2012. Pacquiao turned down $40 million and Mayweather fought Cotto at junior middleweight. Seems like the same same scenario 3 years later except Pacquiao turned down $40 million plus 35% upside and Mayweather will fight Cotto at middleweight this time.

This theory seems very convincing, i hope you're wrong.

Pacquiao and Mayweather are around the same weight (150) on fight night. Mayweather is held to a higher standard because he is the better fighter. Would Mayweather get away with fighting Algieri?

Helllllllllllll Noooooooooo!!!

Well, history tells us that waiting for Floyd hasn't done anybody much good. Just ask Amir Khan. On the other hand giving him deadlines hasn't worked for anybody either. The only thing that worked was Floyd really wanting the fight. Like with Ricky Hatton. So if I was advising Pacquiao I'd say get on with your plan B and don't wait for Floyd. Say that it's up to Floyd to come to you, and no disrespect to Floyd, but you have to make a living. Then maybe something happens.

So you wouldnt advise Manny to accept twice his biggest payday and sign the contract , you would sooner him fight Vargas for 300k PPV and less than 1/2 what he gets from Floyd , and if he beats Floyd in the rematch Manny is the A side and calling the shots .

You Manny fans are not very smart are you .

No need to say that man everyone knows that. Even Pac fans know it deep down even though they will never admit it, but they know it.

Floyd turned down $120 million so if anyone still thinks this fight is going to be made, you're dreaming.

Victor Ortiz was such a step up from Algieri.
