What's that got to do with comparing what Floyd was making vs. what Manny was making. Floyd's offer is based on what Manny was making not what Barerra, Morales, or Clottey was making. Floyd''s offer was way more than what Manny was making, just like Floyd's offer for Cotto was the highest guarantee he ever had up until that fight. By the way, Cotto signed the contract. That's what fighters who say they want the fight...do!

Explained many times: 40m was for Pac to split with TR. Tbey split as much or more for Jmm 3, 4, fights most here were yawning about. Thats a nonstarter.

"Boxing is a bidness, it aint about fightin the best."

"We only want to fight the best, that's right Manny Pacquiao, you're next!"

"When did I say that? I never said that, stop putting words in my mouth!" (when asked about the quote above)

"I'm cleaning up the sport of Boxing!" *then hires Ariza*

"Health comes first." TBE doe!

Froid is a walking talking contradiction!

How is it a road block lol. It's called being a hypocrite. You guys are upset when you tell everyone else "don't worry about money" and arum makes people sign to tr to fight manny so why is it terrible when floy says it.

you clowns always make it sound as if TBE would do the fight for charity. he's not doing it for free. TBE, who used to call himself MONEY would make truckloads of money fighting pacman. he's scared. no way you can defend such cowardice.

I've pretty much come to the conclusion he doesn't want to fight Manny.

I hate to call any fighter scared.

But, Floyd is scared of losing... and for some reason he thinks manny is a legit threat to that.

He makes up a different reason every day of the week... I'm a bit over it.

WAYYYY back when, Pacquiao ducked the fight with the blood tests, but that was a while ago.

I am not calling you ****** or anyone for that matter but it seems like people are either ignoring or cant see that Arum and Manny have no intention of fighting Floyd and are merely riding the hype as a promo tool.

Why do people ignore that Arum and Manny keep talking to the everyone except the people that they need to talk to, to get a fight with Floyd?
If they wanted it so badly why in the world would they not try to contact anyone within Floyds camp? How about Showtime, as they would surely put the pressure on Floyd with all the money they invested in him.Thus far all they have offered is lip service, and have made zero effort to negotiate. They have just run smear campaigns which by no coincidence start up whenever Manny is fighting a weak opponent on ppv. Then they hype up a potential fight with Floyd as his next opponent but what is usually no more than 3 days later Arum comes out with a list of opponents and none of them are Floyd? WTF? It makes no since at all.


Arum and the general media keep blasting Floyd for making excuses and demands when really he only has two, well one now since Manny has apparently agreed to do testing since getting put in a coma. That has been for Bob Arum not to be involved in the negotiations. How this can be seen as a road block in perplexing. Given the history between the two, and their soured negotiations why is it wrong for Floyd not to want to do business with him? Two of his best fighters (Mikey Garcia and Chavez) don't want to do business with him and he made them millionaires.
Is the general public oblivious to the fact that everyone, and I mean 100% of Manny's opponents have had to sign to Top Rank or were already with Top Rank to fight him? Whether they were free agents or not. How can people say that with his history of controlling every aspect financially and screwing his fighters out of money, Oscar, Floyd, Garcia, and Chavez that Floyd is making an excuse for not wanting to work with a man who is proven to demand total financial control over the events that he puts on, and not disclose full financial details to anyone?

Of the infinite reasons one sets me off more than any other and that's the blatant lies that Top Rank feeds to the media and gets away with while Floyd gets blasted for making fun of Manny and Arum and the media re-brands his cracks as "demands". From the very beginning to lying about all the reasons he couldn't give blood, to Arum lying about wanting to fight Floyd in May and about how he couldn't because Floyd was going to jail. Floyd got a stay on his sentence and Arum turned tail and denied to even mention negotiation with him, going so far as to change Manny's fight date. And whatever happend to Manny calling Floyd to talk to him about the fight? How in the world does this translate into Floyd not wanting to fight them? He has made every effort to make this fight. It is a fact that he has negotiated every effort to fight them is it not? I don't recall one negotiation initiated by Top Rank. As a matter of fact both HBO and Showtime have said that Arum has is extremely difficult to work with, and that he basically sabotaged the negotiations, how does this make it pass people?

People want to get up in arms when Floyd says Manny has JMM problems and so on saying he is making demands, when it is clear that he is making fun of him. I fail to see how that statement and any of the like can be taken as a term of negotiation. Floyd already said he is done dealing with them and you really can't blame him after all the hoops he had to jump through and he is the A side. If Floyd behaved like Manny did towards him, there would have never been a fight with Oscar. The A side sets the terms and you accept the, period, never in the history of this sport has a B side acted like such a Diva. Even after Floyd agreed to the laundry list of terms Top Rank laid out, no progress was made, and for what? Testing, money?

Don't need no courage cuz I have no proof and neither does anybody. Which makes the whole ped a sham and an excuse that mayweather used. Common sense people.

I always see your posts "he's on them shakes doe." What are you trying to imply. You always said Manny agreed to testing, I just showed you he didn't agree to testing "without preconditions" until 2012. Now you are still defending Manny and Ariza by saying "you have no proof." If you ever accuse Floyd of PED use after today, you're a straight up HYPOCRITE. Manny was "shady" then, and Floyd is "shady" now, because they both have hired the "shady" S & C coach. I, as a Floyd fan can MAN-UP. You and the Floyd haters don't have the balls! It's okay, if Manny was clean then, then Floyd is clean today and tomorrow.
