Comments Thread For: Arum Details Pacquiao Meeting, Status on Mayweather

[elishua F]

Even without this fight, it can still be a good year for boxing. I just hope people dont give Manny a pass to fight another bum just because theres no Mayweather. They should make Pacquiao/Canelo at a catch weight. No Jessie Vargas bull****.

Cotto letting the Canelo fight pass him by means only one thing. Mayweather/Cotto II for May 2. What other reason would he have to not accept the offer.

Im cool with this rematch, its not a 'cherry pick' and Floyd would be looking to make boxing history. Cotto in my opinion gave Floyd the toughest fight since Castillo. Maidana was just dirty and sloppy, Cotto was effective and gave Floyd trouble.

Khan can fight Bradley.

The year doesnt have to suck just because this fight wont happen in May. In September there is another chance, and I think its been Floyds plan all along to close out his Showtime deal with the Manny fight. The guy is all about money, and doing it in September makes more business sense. Hel promote it as his 'last' fight. Just a little extra drama, which means more money.

Floyd already knows people talking about boycott and insulting him means nothing, he makes $32 million guaranteed and still does good numbers with all the hate.

As long as Pacquioa doesnt use the 'Floyd wont fight' excuse to pick a bum for his next fight, the year can be good.

Pacquiao/Canelo for HBO. Go head to head with Mayweather/Cotto on Showtime on May 2.

Could Floyd be aligning a Cotto fight as a Plan B in case the May-Pac negotiations fall through again? Realistically Cotto would have nothing to lose I mean I didn't think he would actually want to fight Canelo the same time as Floyd fights Manny. Is Floyd merely covering his bases?

Sounds like most black power Flowmos to me. They keep defending Floyd and are in denial because they invested so much into him and look to him as a black hero and live vicariously through them their pride and ego will not allow them admit he is scared of Pacquiao because they treat Floyd like a cult hero or a god and they cannot be wrong.

Question for the bold as well, so you basically saying Micheal brown and trayvon martin parents were in denial right? both the parents said they were a good boy despite their thuggish ways. can't be a hypocrite now.

That's racist. You're assuming that anyone who defends Floyd i.e. your definition of a FIomo, is black.

i think he really didn't mean anyone, only about 95%

That clown should be banned. This is boxing scene. Not racist scene.

Wow get your facts straight he said they had agreed in principle not agreed to terms. Its amazing duckweather fanbous are trying to spin this to make it look like arums fault. Arum and mamny have been the ones publicly saying over and over they want the fight and Manny had agreed to fkiyds terms two weeks ago and Floyd hasn't yet. Nobody from floyds camp has disputed that facts. And then you have Espinoza saying cotto and khan are also attractive options, basically saying just as attractive as Manny. If its not clear Floyd is the one who doesn't want the fight you guys really need to have your head examined. All evidence and what we know shows Manny and arum are trying everything to make the fight while Floyd and his side dint seek interested. This is exactly how it will play out. Floyds side will wait and wait just like cotto did until arum cant wait any longer and then arum will say he cant wait forever and move on like any logical person would do, and then mayweather will fight cotto like he had planned to do the while time, and you guys will spin it to say arum didn't want the fight. That's exactly what's going to happen. If he wants the fight just say it, **** up and sign a contract

10/10 post these fanboys are a lost cause.

Doesnt seem to want the fight , your a fckn ****** , Floyd said he absolutely wants the fight and negotiation are in progress and the interview was a while ago when Cotto Canelo was still alive , its all moved on from then .

Fight will happen and all you panic merchants will step over the pages of dribble said , and you lot will flip over it all like it never happened , then it will be excuse time for why Manny is gunna lose .

ok but what if the fight does not happen because of floyd? what would be your reaction ?

[Pago007]

I repeat dude give the pac vs canelo.talks a rest - wont happen in a million years not even at 47 pac would still say canelo cant weigh more than 49 on fight night not happening - better chance of seeing.ward vs kovalev this yr

I think you misunderstood him. He didn't say most Floyd fanboys are black. He did say though that some Floyd fanboys are the "black power" type, only supporting him since he is a black american like them. Kinda like how there are some Pac fans who only like him cause he's filipino like them. And if you have been on these forums for a while, you'd easily notice that.
