Personally I think Mayweather is going to announce his retirement and I really think he wanted to go out at the very top by beating the only person left that he will get real credit for whooping.Quote:

I don't see why people hate on both fighters, calling them scared and what not. You're sat behind a screen typing away on a forum and calling 2 of the best fighters in the world scared and cowardly. Stop being so damn negative and cheer up.
here's some news on the fight from a credible source...
Manny Pacquiao -- 48 Hours To Decide If He'll Fight Floyd Mayweather | TMZ.com
I've always had a big problem with people calling boxers cowards. This is one of the most brutal sports and at the top I seriously doubt any top guy is scared of another. Sometimes fights aren't made for various reasons, and it is what it is.Quote:

He could've "beat the only person left that he will get real credit for whooping" a long time ago. Why didn't he? Why so many conditions? Where are the conditions NOW? Why does he go into "retirement" in his PRIME, while all other top fighters keep busy doing what they do for a living..... fight.
Like Diane said in an earlier post.... Floyd isn't stupid. But he sure thinks boxing fans are. Gotta be the only explanation.
I'm not saying he would, or he wouldn't beat Pac. I'm saying he has spent the better part of his prime acting like a spoiled brat, instead of giving fight fans what they crave.... the best against the best. Why don't we feel the need to have these conversations about all the other top fighters? Answer: Because all the other top fighters just FIGHT. They don't go prancing around like prima donnas, thinking they're bigger than the sport.
You gotta be starved for heroes, when you latch onto somebody like Pretty Boy Floyd.

It seems to be a problem perpetuated by Promoters, coaches and Boxers themselves in that they are hardly paragons of virtue themselves, dissing each other's teams and calling into question the integrity and credibility of those in the opposing camp. It is then hardly surprising that the fans follow suit. It doesn't excuse it, because if any boxer were really a coward he would not have got to a point in his career where people on internet forums knew who he was. It is also hard not to be negative when a fight which a year or two ago could have injected a real shot of life into the arm of boxing, by dragging in Joe Public, has been allowed to become a drawn out debacle, out of which nobody is coming out smelling of roses.Quote:

The guy's a fukking loser. Wants Pac to jump through hoops now, like someone else very accurately said. Fukk him. Pac doesn't need his prima donna ass.
Pacquiao doesn't fall too far from Prima Donna status either, and Floyd doesn't really need Manny's ass to sell tickets as shown in every PPV he's headlined, both guys are to blame for this fight not coming off, as of right now Floyd is calling out Pacquiao and making all the noise for the fight to be made, Arum and Manny are running from questions that have to do with the fight and only give bullshit excuses not to make the fight happen, I don't give a fuck why Mayweather is calling out Manny now all I know is that he's finally doing it, Manny was plenty vocal of wanting the fight and that he would take the fight on a minute's notice, so what the hell is the problem, make the fucking fight for May and stop the damn dramaQuote:
