    You'd have to ask Bob. My guess is because of the unique=ness of this fight.

    A rematch clause is a protection for the big earner. In this fight, the financials change significantly with a win since both are already huge earners.

    You can always negotiate another mega fight.

      Its really not being talked about, it's only one side that brings it up and we know who they are.

          The "hardcore" fans on here doesnt contribute much so if u guys chooses not to pay its not gonna hurt the numbers. Point being made here is that a lot of people OUTSIDE of this site will pay and is still interested in a rematch.

            To u it wasnt. But to a lot of people they still wanna see a rematch. So their shouldnt be a rematch because "u" think the first one wasnt close?

              Actually no. Go watch some of Floyd's recent interview, tell me they didnt ask him about a rematch with Manny?

                That doesn't mean one can't disagree or be against the fight. Fighters can fight whomever they chose. Hell we're being fed a pointless trilogy in Pac vs Bradley even though Pac clearly won both.

                What I was saying was that to us, it isn't worth having it. If Floyd does come back I'd rather he fight someone who'd give him a competitive fight and not just show up for a retirement paycheck. Especially since every Floyd fight would be on PPV and we'd have to pay if we wanted to watch.

                    To whom was it competitive? To you? To Rath, to Spoon?

                    To the idiots that say you have to watch it in slow motion to really see Manny make it competitive?

                    Please!

                      Of course one can disgaree. But your debate at first was that there's no point of a rematch because there's no interest in it which is not true. If they announce a rematch today u know everyone will be talking about it.
