[misterced]

mayweather should fight louis collazo a south paw tune up fight i dont see pacquaio beating clottey he will walk him down all night plus he can box

[GRUSTLER]

I don't understand how you Pac fans can sit back and rag on Floyd
for this fight not happening KNOWING DAMN WELL that Manny
Pacquiao's reluctance to take the tests is the real reason this fight
is not happening? Why so shady on taking the test at anytime?
Before or after 30 days, same thing what does it matter because
your still giving blood. How idiotic do some of you guys sound and
look Cosigning Pac falling back from this fight but going after Clottey
and making that fight happen fast as hell. Since the Floyd negotiations
all Team Pac has been doing and saying is that Floyd would be tough
to negotiate with BUT Top Rank and Manny were the ones bringing
the smoke and mirrors to the table. All Mayweather wanted was
simple random blood tests to have both fighters come in the ring to
fight on the up and up and Manny says "NO" do you guys see the
oddness in that?

Floyd took 2 tests when he fought De La Hoya. Sometimes I think
a lot of you are like 11 year olds because whenever someone brings
some logic on here and common sense then the debate reverts to childish
name calling and favoritism. I for one am NO FOOL and I see Pac
EXCUSES on why not to take the tests AND the line up of opponents
WHILE negotiating with Floyd AND the lawsuit AND making this fight
with Clottey happen fast right after as Top Rank, Bob Arum
and Pacquiao DUCKING Mayweather Jr AND I don't care what
nobody says in retaliation. Eventhough Clottey deserves a big
fight and am happy for him if it comes off BUT Pac/Floyd was the
fight to make happen at 147.

[Boxing's Truth]

Since this fight is off, I think, Floyd will wait till Pac's uneducated ass scratches some sort of legible signature on a contract to fight whoever the *** he's supposed to fight next.

Once Pac does that, Floyd will try his best to outdue Pac and announce a fight with either Mosely/Berto. ****, Floyd might even consider fighting Cotto in MSG in June just for the *** of it. People will talk all this **** about Pac already beating Miguel but Cotto still has appeal. A fight in June and in New York during the Puerto Rican festivals would generate some good cheese. But Floyd ain't gonna be outdone. He will get his money!

Just A Thought......

Team Pac's decision move forward to fight Clottey will leave Floyd in a very tough situation where in his unbeaten record may end. He will still make million PPV as long as he avoids Paulie.
The easier fight for Floyd is to actually move up to Jr. Middleweight and fight Yuri but since Arum promotes Yuri, it will be a very hard to make the fight.
Unless Floyd fights Pac in 3 months, he will have to detour and take the rough road to December. WW and Jr MW are loaded with good boxers, Pacman fight will be Floyds easy way out from other tough fights. And the easiest way to greatness that's if he beats Pac.

Yeah this will be a easy fight for Pacquiao. Clottey will agree to make a bull **** catch weight like 145 and there will be a re-hydration clause just like there was with the cotto fight of 5lbs after the weight-in. Clottey will not be allowed to enter the ring over 150lbs hell be good for the first 4 rounds then itll catch up to him like it did with Cotto for not being able to re-hydrate properly. Pac knock out of a dried out handicapped Clottey.

Why Floyd didnt took the Margarito fight? Or Mosey fight? Cause hes a bum, he fought who? Baldomir? Judah? What a joke

Zab Judah (Undisputed CHAMP at the time). Carlos Baldomir
(regarded as the true Welterweight champion) after he beat
Zab Judah and Floyd Mayweather Jr beat both becoming the
Lineal WW champ. Margarito got caught in the Bob Arum and
Floyd Mayweather Jr beef AND Floyd was chasing a MEGA fight
with Oscar De La Hoya at the time so why would you pick
Margarito over Baldomir and or Oscar? Two more important fights
in Mayweather's career. PLUS! Floyd told Arum to give him a 10MIL
guarantee on future fights with Hatton/Cotto and a big payday
with De La Hoya then he would fight Margarito and Bob Arum said
"NO". Floyd tried to fight Shane Mosley twice and even Richard
Schaeffer Cosigned that Mosley was the cause for them fights
not coming off BUT I bet you will say that's bull**** when in
actuality these are documented FACTS. Floyd didn't take
them fights because they were bums. Floyd took them fights
because they MATTERED. Look at Margarito now? Ha ha!
wow! so many people put their blinders on just to hate on
Floyd? Really LAME.

Seeing that Floyd dropped out of high school in the 12th grade and Manny actually went back to school for his college degree ... who's the uneducated one?

[TNTLEFTHOOK]

He agreed to fight the Mayweathers numbnut. Read your boxing articles before you speak non-sense.

[noroi]

How can people be happy about this fight? Anything less than Mayweather-Pacquiao is crap!!!!

I Agree but this matchup is handsdown a more decent fight than what Mayweather Jr is likely to fight (Mathew Hatton or Paulie???? WTF)

[watari]

Grustler, go back to year 1, there's 2 sides to it, either pac accepts it OR gay drops it and follow what ALL has been doing and get on with d fight. i think u drop ur brain somewhere floyd's a$$! lol
