If Pac beats Bradley (which he already did in most eyes), or beats any other top WW. You don't think Floyd will come up with another reason why Pac isn't deserving. And you will be the first to rinse and repeat Floyds reasoning. It'll come right back to the list of excuses. Its HBO, Arum, contracts, money, the weather, the president, the government. Blah Blah Blah...
I would absolutely not parrot Floyd.

I smashed Floyd for considering fighting Khan, who I think is even more undeserving than Pacquiao. If that fight happens, you'll see me on here criticising Floyd as much as anyone else.

Back in 2010, there was serious demand that Pac/Mayweather happen. Pac had a lot of pull because he was looked at as a serious threat to Mayweather, with a lot of people thinking Pacquaio would KTFO Floyd. In short, boxing OWED us that fight.

That fight isn't owed to us now, because there are more deserving guys to get the shot at Floyd (Tim Bradley).

As far as reasons for the fight not happening go, I'm not on one side or the other. I don't think it's a black and white issue like most people do. I think both deserve the blame. It was a matter of two prima donnas, two giant egos clashing and ruining what should have been the fight of the century.
