      lol bro, you can not change the past. it has been obvious to just about everyone for over 5 years "who really didn't want the fight".. the evidence is overwhelming and will forever be on the internets for all to see for themselves.. I'll just leave it at that cuz I'm sick of this arguement.

      ohh and Floyd's gonna have to step up his "villain" game, this attempt was pretty bad TBH..

        thread isn't about why fight didn't happen, its about why did many finally sign and agree to fight.

        Floyd said its because Manny needed money. I said maybe that is the reason because he accepted a deal for less money and 0 cutoff, which he walked away from way back then.

        I'm still waiting for another reason why he signed now.

            Here is why.
            1) In 2015, after Manny lost twice since 2012 and has worse PPV draw compared to 2012, Manny gets more than 2012. So the 2012 demands made by Floyd proved to be just roadblocks. Floyd was not seriously interested in a fight.

            2) Even people who were on Floyd's side in 2009 were being hypocrites and/or liars. Take you pick. If they were being objective, they would all get why Manny said no the first time because they refused a fight the year before.






            Mosley vs Judah - 2008 (Cancelled)
            More recently in 2008, according to ESPN.com, Zab Judah requested Sugar Shane Mosley to agree to blood testing before their non-title welterweight fight which had been scheduled for May 31 of that year in Las Vegas. However, the fight never happened because Golden Boy CEO, Richard Schaeffer, refused the Olympic-style drug testing requested by the Judah camp, stating, "Whatever tests they [the Nevada State Athletic Commission] want them to take, Shane will submit to that. [But] We are not going to do other tests than the Nevada commission requires. The fact is, Shane is not a cheater and he does not need to be treated like one."

              It started six years ago. It officially started the moment Floyd mentioned on his social network site that the fight was on.

                If you think Pacquaio made this fight for the fans, you are the dumbest mofo on this site.

                  Manny Pacquiao has blamed Floyd Mayweather for the lengthy delay in announcing their eagerly-awaited super-fight.
                  The biggest fight in boxing has finally been confirmed for May 2 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, with Pacquiao claiming he had agreed to the bout long before Mayweather broke the news on Friday that the deal was done.
                  The Filipino has taken Instagram to post a picture of the contract signed by his team but apparently not by the Mayweather camp, claiming he was waiting for his opponent's signature.

                  Pacquaio also showed us a picture of his tax return to prove that he paid his U.S. taxes. It turned out that he owed $18 million. A picture doesn't mean a damn thing.

                    Manny walked away in 2009/10. Why are you talking about 2012? Manny accepted a worse deal now than the 2009 one, why?

                    The thread isn't about. Zab and Shane and why Shane didn't test. So I'm not sure the relevance since Shane and zab never fought.

                      Lol, Floyd paying PAC'S taxes when he himself has had problems with the IRS.

                      It's funny what the Floyd Stan's will run with. Just be proud that Floyd finally maned up.......

                      I'm glad PAC ignored all the BS and stayed at the negotiation table no matter how long it took for Floyd to sign his own damn agreement......

                      Floyds the only ****ing fighter to get points from his fans for fighting someone he should have fought.....

                      PAC gonna flatten that ugly mug of Floyd's that's for sure...
