    Is this really finally going to happen?

    Well if HBO and Showtime have agreed to go 50-50 which they have then what will stop it?

    Won't each network make sure that each fighter is seriously well looked after money wise (Obviously Floyd already is)

    I don't see how it can't happen really unless one guy bottles it

    Floyd wants to retire with this fight then... he has more class and respect that I gave him credit for. But he has to win against Maidana for the second time.

    I won't believe it until both guys are in the ring and the timekeeper hits the bell.

    I think this was always the plan, but Manny looked past JMM and he, and the fight, paid the price. These guys are both competitors and they were building a 100 million dollar plus fight. Both guys will win their next fights and then meet for two HUGE paydays next year. Can't wait!!!

    Absolute MEGA FIGHT this and and the money involved will eclipse anything the Boxing world has seen before and maybe ever will do

    I'd actually go with Manny to beat Floyd still.

    Well here floyd says he won't fight manny unless he signs with mayweather promotions so we'll see how it all goes down... Outside of the ring of course.

    not that i believe that this fight will happen, but with that said, i have honestly gotten to the point to where i am not even that interested in the fight anymore. i have always thought that floyd would easily beat pac and even moreso now. pac doesnt have anywhere near the hype he used to have. this fight has lost so much steam. it is too overdue for it to really matter anymore.

    Here we go, the excuses come.

    It would be funny if 50 cents is involved in the fight.

    I'll only believe this when the referee raises the winner's hand. Until then...it's all an illusion :P

    If it seems to be real it's illusion

    For every moment of truth

    There's confusion in life

    Love can be seen as the answer
