Everything the radio presenter said was true. That is old because Floyd was friends with 50 cents.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I don't think you can point to any one guy and say "he's the reason". You're dealing with three prima donna assholes (Arum, Pac and Floyd), three huge egos who all wanted it their way.
But it is undoubtedly true that Floyd takes the brunt of the blame for the fight not happening. Most people would have you believe that Floyd was terrified of Pacquiao and ducked, dodged, and never even entertained the thought of having the fight, and the facts and logic just aren't there to support that.
Remember when Manny threatened to pull out of the Hatton fight AT THE LAST MINUTE if he didn't get more money....even though he agreed to the 5050 split??
Remember that bullshit?
Floyd has never pulled a stunt like that but he is seen as the guy that killed the superfight.
What did Floyd do to NOT make the fight?
NOTHING
He agreed to ALL Manny's crazy demands including ten MILLION dollars for every pound over 147.
The 5050 split....also Manny's demand...even though his PPV numbers were not on the same level.
All Floyd didn't do was drop on one knee and sing ol' man river in front of Bob Arum.
