Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Turns His Back on Mayweather Fight, For Now

[ironmt]

When you see the WHOLE article, you have to say Pac is right. And by that I only mean the part that he and Floyd's legacy are already secured and HISTORY is exactly what will be made if and when the fight happens. Now to be honest Pac's legacy will NOT compare to FLoyd's in terms of who they fought and when they fought them!! We can say Pac gave us great fights against the people he did fight, but they still don't compare to the level of Floyd's over their careers.

Who on Floyd's resume Is better then Marco Antonio Barerra or Eric Morales?

What fighter/boxer refuses the biggest fight of his career because he doesn't like the other guys promoter?

Floyd. Cause he will get the same payday from joe smoe we'll not has big but fairly close

I got a question for you who refuses the biggest payday of there career cause they don't want to do a drug test to prove he's clean?

Well not prove but to make sure there's no wrong doing on both sides.

Pacquiao is right..HE IS NOT CHASING FLOYD. WHAT SEPERATES PACQUIAO FROM MAYWEATHER IS THAT PACQUIAO DOES IT FOR THE FANS... HE FIGHTS FOR THE FANS HE GOES ALL OUT FOR THE FANS, HE IS ACTIVE FOR THE FANS... MAYWEATHER FIGHTS BORING EASY FIGHTS.. HE NEVER ENGAGES, AND HIS WHOLE CAREER HE'S FOUGHT ON AND OFF.. SOMETIMES HE'S FOUGHT ONCE A YEAR SOMETIMES EVEN ONCE EVERY TWO YEARS... PACQUIAO WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED AS ONE OF THE GREATEST IN THIS GENERATION, EVEN WITH THE MARQUEZ K.O... MAYWEATHER WILL JUST BE REMEMBERED AS THE GUY WHO WAS TOO SCARED TO FIGHT PACQUIAO... SO I HOPE THEY DON'T FIGHT SO HE WILL BE REMEMBERED FOR THAT, AND IF THEY DO FIGHT, HE WILL BE REMEMBERED AS THE GUY WHO WAS TOO SCARED TO FIGHT THE BEST IN THEIR PRIME.
Amir Khan and Floyd Mayweather LOOKS TO BE FOR SURE NOW... GO TO THE WIKI PAGE OF AMIR KHAN.. AND IN HIS BOXING RECORD, IT WILL SHOW MAYWEATHER AS HIS NEXT FIGHT AT THE MGM.

ALSO FUNNY HOW THEY HAVE BRAINWASHED EVERYONE INTO THINKING AMIR KHAN IS MAYWEATHER'S "ONLY" CHOICE. IF PEOPLE BUY THIS FIGHT, THAT WILL BE THE DUMBEST WASTE OF MONEY EVER, AND IT WILL BRING BOXING TO A ALL TIME LOW!!!.. MEANING IF THIS FIGHT HAPPENS ANY KIND OF LAME MISMATCH FROM HERE ON OUT IS UP FOR GRABS..

AND GOOD FIGHTS LIKE PACQUIAO VS. MAYWEATHER WILL NEVER EVER BE HEARD OF AGAIN If you look at Amir Khan he is fast.. but that's all... he has NO LEGS, NO CHIN.. WHEN HE PUNCHES HIS LEGS ALWAYS, ALWAYS LOOK WOBBLY.. WATCH THE FIGHT WITH ZAB JUDAH (WOBBLY LEGS) THE FIGHT WITH MAIDANA HE WAS OUT ON HIS FEET RUNNING FOR HIS LIFE THE LAST 3-4 ROUNDS OF THE FIGHT.. GARCIA FIGHT.. OWNED... HE NEEDS TO AVENGE HIS LOSSES FIRST...

ONLY REASON THIS FIGHT IS NOT BEING DOWN PLAYED BY THE MEDIA IS BECAUSE DANNY GARCIA WANTS NO PART OF FLOYD MAYWEATHER!!... WHY ISN'T DANNY GARCIA YELLING ABOUT HOW HE SHOULD BE THE ONE DESERVING THE FIGHT WITH MAYWEATHER AND NOT AMIR KHAN? WHY BECAUSE GARCIA IS SCARED OF FLOYD AND IF HE IS SCARED OF FLOYD WHAT IS AMIR KHAN GOING TO DO???? HE LOOKED BAD IN HIS LAST 4 FIGHTS ... HE LOST 2 OF THOSE... HE GOT LIKE A TIMOTHY BRADLEY VS. PACQUIAO DECISION IN ONE OF THEM.. AND HE'S TELLING EVERYONE HE HASN'T FOUGHT IN ALMOST A YEAR BECAUSE HE WAS WAITING FOR THE MAYWEATHER FIGHT???? REALLY???

SO ALL SOMEONE HAS TO DO IS GO INACTIVE FOR HOWEVER LONG IT TAKES AND SAY "UH WAITING TO FIGHT MAYWEATHER" AND BOOM YOU GET THE FIGHT??? SHOULDN'T HE HAVE TO AT LEAST FIGHT SOMEONE THAT FLOYD HAS FOUGHT AT THE VERY LEAST??? HE COULDN'T BEAT NO GUERRERO HE PROBABLY COULDN'T EVEN GET PAST ORTIZ.. SO WHY IS HE THE OPTION??? FLOYD IS JUST AS MUCH TO BLAME FOR THIS FIGHT AS AMIR AND THE MEDIA IF IT GETS MADE... HE DID CALL AMIR KHAN ON HIS B.S. ABOUT "SIGNING HIS END OF THE CONTRACT" WHAT CONTRACT??? HAVEN'T HEARD AMIR KHAN ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS ON WHAT CONTRACT HE SIGNED AND WHO MADE IT... BECAUSE MAYWEATHER IS THE ONE WHO LAYS DOWN THE TERMS... ISN'T FUNNY SINCE THAT HAS BEEN SAID, NO WORD FROM KHAN CAMP??

"It's not so much that I give a damn whether this fight happens--I don't -- and for me it's not the greatest experience doing a promotion with Floyd Mayweather," Arum said. "But not to do this fight would slow down the momentum of boxing."

This promoter you mean?

Cotto said himself that he was at a better stage in his career before fighting Mayweather especially after he beat Margarito in the rematch. I ain't making an excuse but just repeating what he said. I have always said that the Canelo fight should have been at 154. I want them to fight too but it's all over the place with them. I like Manny but I won't crown him the greater of the two considering it took him so much time to finally, actually do a random blood test AFTER he refused to make the fight happen back in 09 because of it being so close. What fighter/boxer refuses the biggest fight of his career by walking away from the negotiations because of 14 days? To only fight a guy who just lost (Clottey) to a guy you just beat down prior? (Cotto) AT LEAST Floyd has fought guys who come off of wins consistently. Name one fighter he has fought coming off of a loss? Now name some for Manny.

It depends more to me who they beat then them just coming off wins..Guerrero beat Berto who was battered by Ortiz already ...I think Floyd is technically a way better boxer then Manny could ever be but Manny brings other things to the ring that Floyd may not..
Floyd had never asked anyone for drug testing had he before Manny? At the time of those nnegotiations I'm pretty sure Floyd and Manny were about even in stature and PPV so maybe it seemed to be a demand they felt they didnt have to adhere to? He did eventually agree though and he did eventually agree to all demands Floyd gave..the ball is in Floyd court and he doesnt seem willing to share the spotlight with Manny anytime soon.

Genaro Hernandez, Diego Corrales.

He beat the **** out of Cotto even before he gave Floyd a tough fight. Cotto at 154 is a joke. He beat Foreman for a easy title then lost to Trout who really never beat a top 154 fighter. Cotto was best at 147...

The only reason they fought him was because he didn't look like the same fighter after Margarito. Cotto himself said he lost confidence from that loss, that he didn't get back until after he beat Margarito(b4 the Floyd fight). If Cotto at 154 ****** so bad, why did Pac duck him? You are right, he was best at 147...before he fought Margarito.

Cant make Floyds Coward ass fight him. Nor can you wait around. Manny has a Legacy cemented in Boxing. Only thing Floyd has cemented in Boxing history is, He made a lot of money. Cherry picked his (hand picked opponents) and Ducked Manny Pacquiao. Oh and retired to duck an entire hot division one time also.

*** Floyd...hes a chump Coward. The Chickens Champ!

Freddie Roach is on video saying before the negotiations took place that Floyd wanted blood testing and it was no problem. In fact, Roach said that once they accept it, then Mayweather would run away scared. Floyd accepted 50/50 and 10MIL over the WW limited. Manny walked away ONLY to later get called out for giving blood right before the Hatton bout. These things are all documented. I do appreciate your maturity when replying to my posts by the way.

Pacquiao should have taken the test and was wrong. So the reason that Mayweather will not fight Pacquiao now Is because he can make the same amount of money fighting Joe Shmoe as he can Manny Pacquiao? I have to say that Is the first time I have ever heard anyone use that excuse, congratulations.
