Comments Thread For: Pacquiao on Mayweather: Maybe He's Scared To Lose

[thatboyelite]

There is no more room to make excuses for Floyd. He doesn't want it! I don't know why, he just doesn't. I can't stand to see a champion duck his most obvious opponent. Bad for the sport. Very bad.

i'm a manny fan first of all, but i disagree with u big time..media pressure pressure only makes floyd look like to the media..but to the keen eye manny looks whiney and like a guy who will say anything to get better terms instead of accepting that his promoter and network is the B side...the promoter has accepted (through media only i add) it but the network has not..

Manny fan? And you talking about b side to a side crap? Pls..

Floyd is going to look real bad in a week or two if things don't get lined up. Truth.

For the people defending floyd, you can argue that Pac is just saying these things or whatever and that negotiations are ongoing but the thing is that floyd set those terms and Pac agreed. Simple as that. It's not like Pac set some terms that he doesn't agree to. He signed and is ready to fight. Floyd is always trying to blame it on arum but it doesn't matter who's involved if you really want the fight. He says dump arum if you want to fight me knowing it's not going to happen. If floyd really wants the fight he needs to take it now because i don't think this fight will gain this much steam a third time.

can u assure me as of wat terms he set? floyd said he wasnt giving pac 40 mill on showtime..no pac says he accepted 6-0/40 split..
BS pressure is not the way to go here..i see a man talkin to the media to pressure floyd..but not obliging floyd in negotiations from split to network..thats the way to expose floyd...

he has no reason to lie? he has millions of dollars of reasons to lie...if he lies that puts pressure on floyd to make the fight with terms he does not like. that also makes floyd have to go out in the media and talk and he doesnt like that, but floyd has stated that this is a lie..floyd on showtime told him no more thatn 40 million manny said 60/40..no network has said that terms are agreed to only manny's team..the fight is about to blow up all in our face again and the real truth will come out 2 years later..

Pac is no saint. But given all his history and how he deals with the media and his now christian ways, ...Pac is more believable than Floyd. Floyd has repeatedly played games with the media, puts out witty remarks, and is often sarcastic or trashtalking.

Again, who is more believable? if you think otherwise, then..I don't know what to say.

Manny fan? And you talking about b side to a side crap? Pls..

Floyd is going to look real bad in a week or two if things don't get lined up. Truth.

well excuse me for accept fact..there are A and B sides in boxing..and this time my guy happens to be the B side....all he has to do is accept it and get his network to accept it...after that there are not excuse..floyd officially goes down as coward..who go all he wanted and deserved, but still ran...do u not agree? i see much wiggle room out of this media pressure crap that floyd fans will have a field day when arum tells his next lie

[elishua F]

These guys only gonna fight through the media. And Floyd is losing right now. Theres really nothing he could say to justify not fighting May 2. People keep saying Manny is B side, well he acknowledges that by accepting everything Floyd wanted. Now what? B Side is playing his part, we now need mr. A side to play his.cant wait til this damn fight is over, boxing is literally at a stand still until it happens.

EXACTLY Manny is trying to win in the eyes of the media. How is Manny going to say "Floyd sign the contract" coming off of selling 300K in PPV? But in all honesty I think this will make Mayweather furious and make the fight. This time I think it will happen and Pacquiao is going to get his ass whupped, get off the mat and go cash his check to break off Arum.

Even if that did happen, why does it bother you? Why does it even matter what MANNY does with his money? Seriously, you sound like you have big *******.

The ultimate warrior is dead, and so is your idea.

Look out, he mad.

if u play the numbers game u believe the numbers not one mouth..pac's team is the only team say terms are agreed to..u can point to sam watson, but he is just a ring boy so idk if its true..i hold that i feel the networks are holding it up and that has been proven..so i'm waiting hoping HBo give pac his chance by accepting that this is not lennoxtyson, its bigger, and that they are B side by a landslide...i just want pac to get his chance..

[smoothsmg]

No, there's no final agreement yet so how can there be a contract?

Sooooooooo, Manny and Arum saying sign the contract is basically them spinning something? Well i am happy I only watch the fights that happen in the ring, and not let this bother me like this board does. Hope we get some good fights (more than 2) Saturday on HBO.
