    Typical corporate bull. I think anyone who steps into the ring deserves to get paid. However, I think what irritates me is that Mayweather, and his corporate crew speak to the fans like we're idiots. At the very least grow a spine and call a spade a spade. It's a lame fight, and the only way things like this stop is if all of us stop buying ppv, stop subscribing to shotime, and stop clicking on these articles. Sorry for my rant, just sick of the lack of character that I see in this sport and society as a whole.

      So because Pacquiao was rendered completely ineffectual and impotent, causing millions to be bored with his weak effort, we are now stuck with Berto?

      Thanks a lot Manny.

        lol this is true, the only action Berto provides is when he's getting beaten to a pulp by the other guy.

        It's all a sham, I hope he isn't able to KO Berto in a boring fight.

          Choices

          Newsflash......if you don't like Mayweather's choice of opponent, you don't have to purchase or watch the fight. It's called "Pay Per View" for a reason.

            I think he said that Amir Khan might not be ready eight weeks after fasting, might be misquoted or maybe he just slipped up. But I remember interpreting it this way when I saw the video.

              The fight sucks, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure that out.

              On the other hand, if you don't like it, don't buy it. Same dudes hating this fight are commenting on Groves/Jack like it's a decent fight, but wait, isn't that on the same card?

              Ya'll fools prolly go on these dudes Twitter's and IG's to leave the same comments, taking precious time out your day to do nothing else but be a hater.

                Ok, I got the excuse for not fighting Khan. But I didn't catch the reson why he isn't fighting One Time.

                    Yes after being in the main event of the 3 largest PPV'S ever, 11 other PPV'S, being the most successful PPV boxer ever and in his 49th professional fight/15th PPV/possible last fight .....NOW Showtime/CBS, Mayweather Promotions and Al Haymon are simply concerned with finding an opponent to make a boxer known as "one of the greatest defensive boxers ever" look better offensively.
                    Hilarious.
