Pacquiao and Top Rank agree to two year deal extension, mayweather fight dead

[mourinho1]

Doe, stop fooling yourself. Normal people knows it's not all about promotional issues, business, politics and all that crap. It's also about balls. You lack balls to fight a certain fighter, of course, you come up with ridiculous excuses. It used to be testing, cut offs, place of training and all that crap. What happened? Then the money, PPV share, and all that crap. Here we are talking about Money Mayweather's requirement that Arum has to disappear first before he fights Pac. How ridiculous is that? Same old man who has nothing to do with testing requests, cutoffs that nobody else in the history of the sport cared about except Roidweather. Wake up, doe. You won't get anything out of defending the indefensible. In the end, you'll look back and realize how dumb you were defending the duck. Hehe...

hey im really awake on this one and been awake for years, the difference is that i rather talk essentials and it comes down to contracts in-house fighting etc. I do agree that Mayweather in the past wasnt that eager and even today he isnt that eager. everyone knows manny is a great fighter and would be a great test for mayweather. I would even agree with you that mayweathers have used some excuses along the way especially
mayweather SR.

Where we disagree essentially. is that you think manny is a saint based on how he presents himself. the peoples people, i also like how manny presents himself in the media its very positive. but is it real and genuine? Do you really think manny is the opposite and he really wants the fight, he really doesnt care about money? he basically is a saint? i think they are the same they are both as smart as the other. same goals money, same responsibilities with networks etc. only manny tries to present himself as a hero mayweather as a villain.

Groves showed me he wanted Froch, Manny hasnt showned me much. In other sports its normal to leave your promotion for a better deal and challenges if you really want it. MMA, soccer etc.

Floyd wouldn't fight Pacquiao anyway.

Yeah but pacman really could have cornered floyd because he'll have no excuses left ( or will he) and take the fights he wants to take against anyone he wants to.

Now, bar prov, he has no new opponents left?

[Holywarrior]

doesnt change anything really. If he left arum there'd be the ... 'We ain't dealing with freddie Roach. Leave Freddie and we got a fight etc'

Doubtful. Roach vs Mayweather SR would actually help sell the fight.

It's a good deal for him to sort out any tax issues past present and future.

It's a shame that Floyd was too scared to risk his zero and give fans the fight they deserve but life must go on.

No excuses left?

Take the test we have a fight

Take a ridiculously small split

Leave bob arum

Sign a contract with my promotional company

Mayweather is not going to be cornered.

Floyd nuthuggers in full force up in here

The only reason this is even an issue is Floyd making a roadblock where there shouldn't be one

dont agree if the consensus is that in-house fighting is what was going on all these years at both camps then...

We just have to acknowledge that neither wanted to leave their promotion to fight the other. dont blame 2 fighters. more fights with different fighters could have been made between promotions, but in-house is the strict diet. Guerrero wanted some fights with TR, what happens he tries to leave his promotion GBP. that is just the way the game is played and definitely today. I just think it's unfair to blame one party, while it isnt that simple. BTW if cotto fights martinez than he wont be fighting any GBP fighters in the future i predict he'll stick fighting at HBO

seems like fraud jr is canceling his vacation.

Bingo. The root of the problem is Floyd's demands.

[BIG GUNZ]

It doesn't even matter. Floyd was never going to fight him even if he left Top Rank.
