    after smoking a bowl of some mediocre herb and reading on this and past articles, i've now realized that all this is hype. pure hype. well there may be hidden agendas for both fighters but they're both using for both their own advantages. and they're hyping up the fight at the same time.

    this fight will definitely happen 2010.(shit i keep thinking its still 2009)

    That is one way to look at it, but that would sure be one screwed up way to hype a fight.

    this is boxing 2010. ufc is stepping up and boxing has to step up too. they already had this when bj penn was accusing GSP of roids.

    i also notice great fights coming up this year for fox. it was bob arum's deal to compete with the super6 i guess. boxing sure is stepping.

    No, you are wrong. Manny has chickened out. This is no hype.

    Let's just face up to the facts. The fight is off.

    Yea in the beginning I thought this was a big hype, it very well could especially not really hearing anything from Floyd or Manny I keep building all these possibilities in my head. Thus I am beginning to think the fight is off for a while.

    i don't think manny ever chickened out. he's just looking out for his own good. remember, these are two big-egos we're talking about. i don't think anyone is backing down from this fight.

    here's the thing, i heard that even before the hatton fight, team pac has been wanting to get a fight with floyd. roach was obviously upset when floyd took on marquez right before the pac-hatton fight. why would pac chicken out now? when he had just put a stellar performance vs. cotto threat. what did mayweather have, a one-sided(expected) fight with a bloated up marquez? pac fought the way he did against cotto (taking cotto's shots deliberately) to show that he's not afraid of heavy punches - what more potshots. roach wanted pac to KO cotto in the 12th round because he knows this would give them leverage should a mayweather fight exist. it's all about leverage.

    the slander case will be settled outside of the court and pac and floyd will make a compromise for the fight contract. unlimited urine testing is the key since some scientific articles proved that hgh and epo(drugs in question) are detectable in urine. pac-floyd will push through 2010. biggest hype up to a fight, biggest payday in the history of boxing. that's how you make history.

    p.s. i never knew glenlivet was this good.

    True that this place is quite civilized in its overall, except for a few isolated case, this has been proven to be quite a polite place where exchange is easy and possible, which is quite surprising (for the level I mean) as normally, fans tend to be quite a good public to be fanatic and to take some stuff quite personally. Guess that's one of the reasons why I entered and never looked back.

    Perhaps chickening out was the wrong way to put it, but to turn down the defining fight of your career over a demand to ensure cleanliness at the highest level is nuts. Starting legal proceedings so late after letting it go for so long also seems to me somewhat opportunistic. "We would like a random drugs test". "No". The public then gets upset and starts slinging mud. Manny's team: "Right that's it. We sue!". It is a bit crass and on that basis alone seems unreasonable. If the slander was so annoying, then he could have taken proceedings when it happened. But he didn't, he let it go. And saying it was because he was focussing on Cotto? Pac wouldn't have been organising anything, he would have had a legal team to do all the hard work for him. I've gone on a little tangent there, but at the end of the day also just want the fight made.

    I've been 'hoping' that is the case. If it is, 98% of us have been snookered. I give them Boxings 2010 greatest con game award!
