Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Waiting For Mayweather's Answer To Challenge

[Det. Conan]

first is curiosity. why floyd avoiding a fight with supposed to be past prime, one dimensional pacquiao. floyd should fight bum pacquiao rather than young hungry lion khan.

Very true!!! His winnability of the fight just went up multiple notches because of slipping Pac recently, Still the biggest fight out there by far. Huge amount in their pockets. But still not interested? Hmmmm

Not saying Pac didn't win, but if you're gonna give Pac credit for beating Marquez because the judges said so, then you have to give Bradley credit because the judges said so. Luckily for Marquez, he didn't leave the last one to the judges!

I thought your going to sleep which is it? Goodnight Bronx! Man love is strong for Floyd embrace it dog! Papa Floyd loves you

Logic is the same for Manny. Just keeping it real.

Oscar's coach said that Oscar couldn't pull the trigger no more when he faced Floyd.
I even said that it was pointless (lose, lose situation) for Manny to face old Mosley.

If you go back to my previous post, I mentioned that I can understand Bradley being questionable for the same reason that I questioned Guerrero and Ortiz BUT the difference is that Bradley did much much better than those two at 140 and many had considered him a tough match up for Manny. So I would have put the more consistent Bradley over guys like Ortiz and Guerrero.

I feel you but Guerrero beat Aydin and beat the brakes off Berto. Not saying much, but better than Bradley @ 147. Do you admit that Floyd's last 3 are netter than Manny's last 3?

Anyone that thinks this is a serious challenge and expects Mayweather to fight for free are out of their mind.

Nope. The only bad one for Manny is Rios and it is understandable. For Floyd, all 3 were not good according to my standards and I told you why.

Again, Manny vs Marquez is a great rivalry that Floyd will never be able to duplicate! So just by that and being that #4 was considered FOTY by many, it's no comparison.


"Who is Guerrero? What has Guerrero done? I'm no Berto" -Floyd Mayweather ... enough said!

Aydin dropped back down to 140 and by then, everyone knew that berto had no defense and a suspect resume! While Bradley is now P4P a top fighter and beat Marquez, Manny at 147

Manny is waiting for Floyd's reply which will be somewhat like this:


Floyd's reply: you serious Manny? I'm busting my chops in the ring and willing to sacrifice my life in there and I'll give it for free? **** you!

Manny: then you dont have to, I'll give my money to charity to show the world it's for the people and for history. For free Floyd man-up!

Floyd won't have to give his, PAC will. That's the last move. Checkmate Floyd.

Check mate!

This is what will happen. PAC knows this fight is what boxing fans want. It's for legacy and history. Money is not the motivating factor. It's whooping Floyd's ass.

Floyd can keep his take of his money or give a portion to charity, but PAC ain't bluffing he will give his fight purse all away to charity and for legacy. Checkmate. No way out on this one Floyd.

And wait you will, Pac. Just like you have for the past 5 years. Floyd wants no part of you but trust that the people truly respect all of your efforts to try and get that coward inside the ring.

Problem with your post. Juiceman doesn't dictate anything, talk to his promoter like he has to

Please forward the link to an article where Manny said Arum is out of the negotiation! I'll wait!

its hard to locate those particular articles. it will take so much time to search 2012 articles. i just post what floyd said.

"Furthermore, Mayweather said that when he was seriously considering fighting Pacquiao in January of last year, offering a flat $40 million fee in exchange for all the pay-per-view money, Pacquiao adviser Michael Koncz attempted to negotiate a bout without Top Rank's knowledge, saying, "Some guy named Michael Koncz [Pacquiao's adviser] came down here. I don't know who he is. He looks like a little weasel. He came down here, was in my gym and talked to me. He said, 'If you want the Pacquiao fight, you talk to me.' I said, 'What about Top Rank?' He said, 'I run all his business.'"



again i'll say that there are press releases from pacquiao camp saying arum is out of negotiation in this particular fight.
floyd had confirmed that koncz had said that arum is out of negotiation.

i'll post the specific articles that i had read 2012. later.

This is the dumbest s**t ever to come out of Manny's mouth. No prize fighter is going to fight for free. What Manny fails to realize, he is nothing close to the A side at the bargaining table. If he wants the fight but does not want to leave TR, just ask for the 1 fight exception. If TR grants the one fight exception, and Floyd comes up with another demand then you can say Floyd is ducking this fight. But to say let's fight with the $$$ going to charity is not something one would say or demand if they are trying to make a Prize Fight.
What I find to be funnier is Manny's fanbase championing his statement like he jumped up and slapped Floyd's Momma. Like ooooooohhhhhhhhhh what is Floyd going to say/do now. What is Floyd going to do?????? Laugh his a$$ off. That's what he is going to do. Unless Floyd loses a fight before this fight can be made, Floyd is in the drivers seat. Like it or not. Now if Floyd loses, then they can once again be considered equals at the bargaining table.
We all know this fight won't take place in 2014 so why bother talking about it anymore this year.
