Mayweather: No Shot For Pacquiao, He Blew His Chance - Boxing News
:beatdeadhorse:
100% true he blew his shot . Micalculated that he was the headliner over PBF, then stars in "ATG KTFO video" in last fight. Now Pac Cherry picks a light hitting Rios , that has little skill, power, speed, defense or lateral movement. Today he is trying to bait PBF into a fight. Arum believes the public has memory loss or is stupid . It is going to take more than a massacre of a pedestrian fighter like Rios to get a PBF fight. Stupid ass Pac / Arum trying play a board game of "Cherry picking "with the master PBF.Quote:

If manny ko rios.
Ko bradley (if bradley beat marquez)
Then it will put him in a much more attractive position.
Either way, who cares anymore.
So many excuses on either side. Floyd and bob arum will never agree..thats the problem..always will be.
Floyd said he wanted Pac to sign to HIS promotion and then he will fight pac. That was after pac agreed to less money and all the drug testing. Hopefully pac signs to floyds promotion, that would be awesome, fuck bobby!
The intrigue isn't there anymore and both are at fault. I blame Floyd for his ridiculous demands and Pac didnt help much by refusing to take random blood tests but It's funny how he doesn't have the same test issues against Rios. I was never too hyped about this fight cuz i figured Pac's style was tailor made for Floyd. It would have been one of those hyped events that wouldnt have lived up to its potential..
We only wanted to see a PAC vs PBF fight because we thought Pac might have a chance. The last 2 or 3 years sadly proved he ain't got a prayer. Floyd, albeit slower, is evrything we thought he was and more. Pac has been on the slide for a while.
Guts me as I hate Floyd but it's getting harder and harder for the haters to pick faults, he's near perfect (personality aside)
Manny was arguably busting Marquez up prior to that KO and in a way that for the first time had me worried. Marquez was losing his face in a matter of minutes and appeared to be getting overwhelmed. And then that peach of a punch down the pipe. Personally, I had the Bradley fight close and can make a case for Bradley, but most don't. Bradley is a fantastic and tricky fighter and Marquez was in no way busted up by Mayweather like Manny was doing. Styles make fights and Pacquiao is going through what happened to Hatton. You get stopped and so you are shit and thus never really had a chance. It just isn't that simple.
I won't blame Manny outright as I think it is the fault of Manny and Floyd. Manny hits harder and faster than anyone that Floyd is willing to face (I would include Alvarez in that) and I can only assume that there are doubts in Floyds mind too. Othwerwise, the fight could have been made, there was just too much money in it. Manny was being an egotistical prick, but on the flip side, Floyd had doubts whence drug testing and seeing Manny flatten everyone.
It's a shame it never happened, but Mayweather is just as much to blame. It is wrong to say that Marquez stopped him and thus Manny just wasn't good enough or to just make excuses for Mayweather who is largely continuing to con people with shite like Guerrero and more fricking CW's.

Yeah it was both these fighters faults as well as their managers and further on too into promotions. Why? Greed? Fear of losing their whole legacy in one fight? Who knows?Quote:

The star (rep points) on the bottom of each post is the un obvious one to click so theres three to choose from.
This thread should read: MANNY IS NEVER GOING TO FIGHT FLOYD. Floyd continues to make tens to hundreds of millions while Manny is staying below six digits in take home $$$.
Good. Both suffer that diva complex and both blew "it". Manny went to the well too many times and woke up with his mouthpiece sticking outta his nose instead. Mayweather equally flushed time-momentum away after the Hatton win in fairness.
Floyd's says that now..
Because before pacs losses, Mayweather was ^sooooo ready to fight him^.
For those of you that don't know your grammar, this ^ is called a sarcastrophe, obviously indicating, sarcasm.
Floyd was NEVER going to fight Pacquiao, now he has his reason.
I credit Pac for getting on with it and taking the big fights instead of waiting around while Floyd took 2 years off.
Agreed screw them both for not making the fight when they were in their primes instead of selling us sloppy seconds.Quote:
