Floyd Mayweather turns down new offer of $65 million to fight Manny Pacquiao - Pittsburgh Fight Sports | Examiner.com


Mayweather is indeed truly afraid of Pacman. No doubt about it.

[Hornfinger]

It's an article that slags off floyd. IT MUST BE TRUE!


Floyd is retired. Simple as that.

[brucelee]

Oh yeah. He's retired

[boxingbantz]

He doesn't want to risk his 0 which is fair enough this late on in his career. Why take $65m to fight Manny when he can make $20-30m fighting someone like Victor Ortiz? Less money but still a HELL OF a lot of money with less risk. If he loses that 0 he loses all marketability. For the record I think he'd beat Manny but if he doesn't want to take the risk, that's up to him.

of course he turned it down, he is a wanna be thug pussy!
Pacman would destroy gayweather!

I think there are a few things to iron out before Floyd fights Manny. First, he has to go through the process involving his ex wife and all the allegations that come with it. Roger has as well to settle the case involving one of his ex protege and finally, there is the lawsuit for diffamation that Pacquiao has against the Mayweathers. Before all of that is solved, the fight is unlikely to happen.

Beside, even if that fight sounds exciting, there are so many other great potential fights that can possibly be made, we should just stop thinking about that one, Boxing doesn't only revolve around Pacman and Mayweather.

I have a hard time believing this. I can't see Floyd turning down 65 million, i can see him turning down fighting in Singapore but not 65 million. I think there is more to this story, or Arum is lying as usual.

Sorry but if pac can't 'destroy' a tired, shot, old fighter in Mosely... who can't fight off the back foot.... then how the hell is he going to destroy Floyd mayweather, who is younger, faster, slicker, smarter and can fight off the back foot EXTREMELY well?
