Mayweather Calls out Pacquiao

Manny is my favorite fighter by far and Mayweather ducked Pac-man many times because if Mayweather lost he wouldn't get 30M for fighting schlubs anymore. Now its the opposite, Arum doesn't want the fight becuase if Manny loses then he'll retire and Arum wants to keep his gravy train going. Unless Manny insists that Arum make the fight its not going to happen (Manny has never not done what Arum wanted).

This fight isn't going to happen until they are both over the hill. When they do fight both of them will be coming off a loss or two. The 2 fighters will be a shell of their former selves. Watching a 40 year old Mayweather fight a 38 year old pac man will be junk on the lines of Tyson-Holyfield or Tyson-Lewis and yet they will still make 80-100M each if they wait. I love boxing but boxing f-in sucks.

like i said months ago, it will happend. but im little bit suprised if it happends on Floyds terms. because it is kinda otherway around here. Floyd needs Manny. Manny doesnt need him. So, im pretty sure Manny has something to say.
or...it might be just fine for him. lets fight

The chances of @MannyPacquiao and @FloydMayweather fighting each other? On his media tour this week, Manny said, "It's 50/50." #boxing

It wont be for a while Mayweathers year is already pretty much taken care of.....fight in May, then some time in jail. Maybe next year..... (of course we have been saying that for a long time......)
 
The longer it goes without happening the better for May .

I have always been in Mannys corner with this one but believe the fight needed to have happened a couple of years back for him to have had a real shot at beating Mayweather .

Manny would have had more speed than Mayweather then , people can dispute this , but I cant recall seeing faster hands than in those fights against Cotto and Margarito , im not so sure he would hold that advantage still , he tired against Mosley and again that speed was not as evident in his last bout against Marquez .

Another big difference in that time is his punch output , Manny throne over 1,000 punches in those fights against Cotto , Clottey (the human punchbag) and Margarito , it was down to 700 against Mosley and im pretty sure it dropped again for the Marquez fight , one things for sure it would have to be stepped up again if he were to fight May .

Mayweather also has not been involved in wars the way Manny has , and you have to think this could take its toll .
 
We all love a parade but not a charade.
And what Floyd Mayweather Jr. is conducting is a propaganda charade.
Now, for the first time ever, I am firmly convinced that "Money" has no intentions of ever fighting Manny Pacquiao.
No. no, no and never.
Not because Mayweather doesn't view the match as a glorified exhibition, a sparring session which he easily win.
But because the control freak that lives inside Mayweather will not permit him to make a fair economic split with Pacman.
Floyd and Manny are boxing's two super powers but Mayweather's ego will not permit him to ackowledge that by splitting revenue 50-50.
Floyd won't even split Fifty Cent 50-50, he wants his shadow companion all to himself.
I digress, I know, but why else would a guy who is going to jail after his May 5 fight with Miguel Cotto insult an upstanding citizen such as Pacquiao with this comment from Wednesday's Apollo Theater in Harlem press conference"
"Just by speaking to Pacquiao on the phone, I mean, he's not one of the sharpest knives in the drawer," Mayweather said. "He faces Floyd Mayweather, he's not getting 50-50. Not at all. No one is getting 50-50."

Trust me the fight is going to happen as neither will be that stupid to leave 100M on the table. However I will be suprised if it happens before 2014. We'll have the Geezers at Ceasars matchup that none of us wanted and whoever wins well it will pretty much prove nothing.
