Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Willing To Meet Mayweather's 14-Day Number

[Carpe Diem]

Didn't Bob Arum said they wouldn't negotiate through the public? I think what they're doing now is exactly what they did in the previous negotiation..They're trying to show that they want the fight, but they really don't IMO..

Two months ago, he obviously didn't want the fight to happen.

But no real boxing fan would support his attempts to kill what would be the biggest fight since Leonard-Hearns. Boxing needs this fight, and anyone who loves the sport should be telling him to stand by what he agreed to before and make the fight happen.

ok so lets go off your logic right. manny wants the 14day cut off so that means he wants the fight to happen right??? so him rejecting the 14day cut off before meant he didnt want the fight to happen before and killed one of the biggest fights in history....thats what real boxing fans see . there is no reason he need a 30day cut off for a blood test like he first stated that was b.s and two great figthers showed no cut off dates would kill them so he can show it to im all for the fight but if someones dirty idc to watch it..i would love to see lebron vs kobe in the finals but if leborn was on something then idc to watch it..same would go for this fight

Which is why Manny didn't agree to 14 when it was on the table of negotiations, not talking through the media, correct?

What has changed is that Floyd's bluff has been called. Boxing is far more important than any one fighter. If Floyd kills this fight now, anyone who still supports him is just a fanboy and not a boxing fan.

then why ddint pac call his bluff alst time when mayweather signed a contract for a 14day cut off and manny team rejected it and sign their own contract of a 24day cut off and said take it or walk away, why didnt he call mayweather bluff then when he signed a contract.....this is exactly what they did last time discuss it in the media make it look like they want the fight and lie . the judge called arum out on his lies after the meeting, y lie? why agree to random testing up until the fight and then after you get what you want say no we changed our mind if you really wanted the fight back in dec??

They both killed the fight in the first negotiations and are both to blame. Floyd could have made the fight if he'd agreed to 24 days, Pac could have made the fight if he'd agreed to 14 days. Anyone who blames just one fighter for the negotiations breaking down before is nothing more than a fanboy.

24 days was regarded as reasonable by most PED experts.

Plus the 14 day offer was not made during the negotiations, it was made after the negotiations had already broken down. By that time, Pac was too angry about the smear campaign to be willing to compromise any further and in effect, threw his toys out of the pram. I don't defend him for doing that, but it was certainly no worse than what Floyd did. They were both to blame.

And killing the fight now would be far more far-reaching and far worse for boxing than killing the fight in the first negotiations, because after the first negotiations broke down, it was generally expected that the fight could still be made later this year. If the fight is killed now, that will almost certainly be the end of any hope of it ever happening.

He's almost there...0 days gets the fight done though.

Fight should be made then, no excuses now.

pleasee thast b.s floyd didnt kill the fight he agree to everything of manny accept the testing. manny agreed to floyd for random testing and then changed his mind after he got what eh want that right there killed the fight. then mayweather still would work with them changing his cut off date way to much. first roach said he needs 48hrs mayweather team said no problem, then roach said 3days, mayweather team said no problem, then they said a week mayweather team still said no problem , then arum said no back to 30days and then they went into the meeting and they offer a 14day cut off with a signed contract of floyd according to the judge, arum said that didnt happen until after they said no fight and thats when the judge calld arum out and said stop lying and he said arum didnt come in their with good faith to make a deal. then now manny will accept the 14day cut off that he rejected before that killed the fight...come on if you look at it from the middle u will see now who without a doubt killed the fight. if you think my facts are wrong i can show you video/ article of this to prove it

Why is it that Manny is the 1 guilty of everything and Floyd is a ****ing saint? They both acting like bitches, I just defend Pacquioa a little bit more cuz all of ya Mayweather lovers are so blind that ya can't see Floyd is just as responsible for this fight not goin down.
