    ^^ Young Mike has a point.

      If Pac doesnt seek a fight with Floyd, it will be quite obvious he is avoiding him intentionally.

        floyd needs pac... floyd is the one with financial troubles, not pac. floyd gotta come down to 50/50 or the fight isn't happening.
        you would be ok not seeing the biggest boxing fight of the last decade, maybe in the last 30 years, maybe even in boxing history?

        Floyd just made 70 mil against Marquez.

          Yup. I feel the same. But with regards to the weight, if pbf shows up like that of the jmm fight, the advantage would certainly be huge. I'm guessing +7 to10lbs over pac. Assuming that they cancel off styles/skills, add weight to his reach advantage and I'm guessing a 2 is to 1 odds for pbf.

          But I don't question pac's determination. If he feels he can get it done, he will give hell to get the win. That is just daring to be great but logically pbf should win it. Pac ...somehow often beat the odds. This is why I'm hoping for this fight to happen.

            Ok. Let's suppose, by some miracle of fate, Floyd agrees to Manny's stipulations. Who would you favor in that fight?

              I'm pretty sure Manny and Floyd want the recognition that goes with the being the best. The money proabably doesn't hurt either. If Manny wins the Cotto fight, the negotiations will be hard, but it's hard to see the fight not happening.

                He is quite vocal about it. If he did not avoid Cotto, he will not avoid Pbf.

                So far, both are doing a good job of undermining the importance of each other. Pbf is also to blame here.

                  That is if a catch-weight is imposed. And in the contract, they can opt to not move forward with the fight if they feel that it would be a health risk or they can choose to move forward and agree to receiving a high penalty payment for violating the catch-weight stipulations.

                  That's IF Floyd for some reason doesn't come in at the catch-weight they signed for.

                    I again concur on your points.

                    But even without the catchweight, I doubt Roach would let Pac go higher than 148(fight night) while Pbf will be easily above that.

                      I dont get it either... Floyd detroyed the guy who was been destroyed by pacman.. JMM tasted the canvas 4 times with manny; whilst Floyd made it only once..

                      In addition my friend, Hatton went down just TWICE in 10th with Floyd, But he went down TWICE in 1st and Officially knocked out in 2nd with Pacman..

                      Can anyone get this?
