    I'm really, really honestly and truthfully coming to the conclusion that this is all becoming a setup.... Too much money generated for them not to conduct a rematch. It's all about money I swear here floyd goes talking a rematch why? Because it generates more money. Who's to say the whole manny's hurt arm thing isn't a setup anyhow? Yeah give them a reason to fight again and get more money a second time around, Hell do it another time and another time... I for one am not gonna put another dime of my hard-earned money toward a rematch if it happens and I dare other fans to do the same. It's time for both to hang-up and reitre. Floyd won, so he could be claimed the best of this generation and amongst the top 3 GOATS, what else is there to prove?

    It might as well be a set up, watch the fight again, Floyd didn't win amazingly, he barely threw punchs but he still out threw Pac, that isn't saying much, both had their lowest punch out put, also they were talking to each other in clinches, and smiling at each other when they hugged. I wouldn't be surprised if they set it up.

    I know this, the rematch will just be as boring, Floyd might throw more shots and win again, but there will be no attack from Pacs end, after the fight Pac will be humble in defeat.

    It was out of character for Pac to say he won, when he lost to Bradley in a fight he clearly won, he said I have to accept it, i tried my best it wasn't good enough. But in this fight it was out of character for him to say that, its like they were trying for the rematch angle to begin with.

    Both Pac and Floyd are laughing to the bank. The rematch will not sell, only way they should do it fairly is to put it on free tv do this for boxing, don't be greedy.

    The thing that pisses me off is when you get boring superfights like this, where Floyd plays it safe like with OScar and Manny, it hurts the sport of boxing, people start slamming the sport instead of just saying well Floyd is a cautious safety first fighter, instead they blame boxing and say boxing sucks.

    Why? its not boxing, its Floyds style that is boring to fans, just leave it there dont attack the whole sport over one mans conservative style

Hell he'd actually make more money if they eliminate the networks and just negotiated with the cable providers directly. I will say the fight did not live up to the hype and tons of folks who wanted to see it live still feel slighted, I think the latter aspect being the principal issue.
      Hahaha keep crying. I see through you like glass.

        How the hell can they even sell this? Entertainment wise it was widely perceived as a disaster.

          I think Manny deserves a rematch for what happened with the commission but it was shady to withholt the injury for those who bet on him to win, etc.
          I don't care if he just thought he could over come it or not. That's not cool Manny. The fight should have been postponed. I damn sure wouldn't have paid $100 PPV to watch a half hearted Pacquiao effort with that garbage undercard.

            And then come back to have Floyd **** all over him at the negotiating table. This keeps getting better and better.

              Exactly , if u were totally shocked by the lack of consistant action in this fight , or by the result , then in the words of the Mayweather patriarchs "u don't know s..t about boxing" lol

                exactly. why the fuck should anyone contribute to manny's retirement plan after the way he failed to fight to win on Saturday. I will not support anything he does. He gets no more money from me.

                Shameful, disgraceful piece of crap.

                  Why not? More easy money for "Money". But this time I'll watch the rebroadcast.

                    I will watch it but would rather see Manny drop back down to 140 and tear through that division as Roach stated they were going to do...He would burn through anyone in that weight class and I would love to see him start with Broner...that would make the one-armed loss to Floyd feel a little better to get his wanna be

                      Even at the normal PPV tag I think a rematch bombs numbers wise. Not a single one of the casuals who bought this last fight will buy a second fight. And they're the reason this fight shattered records.
