Hmmm how about the fact thats its the best WW fight in years.

That's true, but so was Oscar VS Floyd before the fight.

[God 2 u]

sigh! FMJ will have another excuse in ducking Pac by bringing up PPV bull**** sales.....well never have FMJ-Pac fight


how is asking for a blood test ducking nd now when floyed deserve 65% its ducking looks like these *******s say anything no matter how wrong they are they think there right news flash buddy pacroids and bob anus pulled out the negotiation and quickly fought clottey good for him his numbers still dont beat out pbf

[JCaster]

very good for pac. am asian doing those numbers without a known opponent is very remarkable. Only haters will discredit pac for his performance.

Now majority believe that floyd vs shane will do more than 1M ppv. But i think JMM is a bigger draw than mosley..

[ace2ace234]

this fight will never happen now,FFS and what happened to all u mayweather fans u constanly berate the pac fans as they do you, why not open your eyes and use some logic?
for thoses of you's that said that pac ruined the fight you've got to be kidding me and for those of you that said that floyd ruined it get a grip of yourselve's'they both ruined this fight'.....with great help from the clowns roach.arum,schaffer and floyd Sr....
Ive got a feeling we will see this fight and all this is promoting it up to be bigger than it already is but the fact that may v mosely is gona crush this is ppv buys puts this fight in jeopardy.....
Floyd is a bigger draw pacfans be honest and you'l see that the man knows how to sell fights.give him his props...
also pac will have to take the test for this fight to happen bcoz of the public demand is too high now but I will say floyd should be ashamed of himself how he went about it,im a floyd fan but didnt like the way he slandered pac and then asked for the test,I know floyd trash talks but its all to promote the fight he's always full of respect after each of his fight's,amazing people still tink hes a pr*ck and dont get its to sell his fight's,mans an absolute gent after he fights his opponent......Im one of the few floyd fans who doesnt tink manny is on anything but by god he done a great job of making himself look guilty(I use my logic to come up with this conclusion,ie his fight night weight has not dramtically increased over the last few years,he is not dyhdrating as much,also I tink his opponents have been stylistically perfect for him and have made him look v good in the process.)
im gutted coz i know this fight wont be made but i do have to say floyd needs a career defining fight more than pacquaio and pac is the one that can cement his legacy as one of the greatest so if floyd cares about it like I think he does I hope he does the right thing for boxing...pac will have no chice but to man up and do the test's....please make this fight...it has to happen
anyway sorry bout the ramble had to get it off the chest.

pretty good numbers for pac, You have to consider that most flips end up having huge family partys to watch pac's fights. I have alot of close friends that are pinoys and they get as many as 30 people at one house to watch pacman's fights, food everywhere!

This is what happens when you fight Cotto 1.2 million buys. And then go fight the guy who just lost to Cotto after you destroyed Cotto=700,000 buys don't worry they'll try and make it look good by saying Manny did it all by himself lol. That's just a cover up. He wasn't in the ring by himself all night now was he? alright then. And didn't Arum say that Pacquiao-Clottey would sell as much as Pacquiao-Cotto? yeah he did. Pacquiao couldn't even crack a million. Well one thing is for sure. He can forget about a 50-50 split with Mayweather that is out the window. And he has noone to blame but himself cause he quickly signed to fight Clottey to duck Mayweather!!

pacman has no problem with the money negotiation and he had a better proposal winners take all how about it floyd and floyd fans. If monkey floyd wins he could be taking home 50 million in one nigth fight. The only obstacle that prvent that winning prize is one word only it's th if word.

[WESS]

ONLY A LIL WHILE LONGER WE WILL HAVE A GOOD FIGHT.

Notice when Kellerman asks Mosley why Mayweather is "the biggest star in boxing" and you see Floyd's hand gesture. He knows EXACTLY how to sell a fight. Its all shyt talking and hype yet some people let there vagina's get in the way by getting all sensitive on us.

Shyt talking is part of boxing and Mayweather knows EXACTLY how to do it and to sell a fight.

Also notice how Mosley said that Mayweather fights for money yet people that don't know the game, haven't ever fought in a ring and have no experience fighting say Mayweather ducks....

Damn, Shane's a bad ass! I don't want to see him lose again. At least Mayweather cant give him a beating or take any years off his life. Mayweather will "technically" beat him just as he will Pac. Yet i think Pac gets beat worse due to his aggressive come forward style.
