You might as well have stayed quiet like you were,you aint saying nothing

And I suppose if the A fighter demands a billion dollars and 50 other stipulations and changes his minds 100 times it's ok because he's the A fighter. Fukk outta here.

Lol besides what more do you want? I already said Floyd is the top boxer right now. If I had bread to put up I'd pay them 50/50. Manny is a more exciting fighter to me. Floyd is a technical genius. Style makes fights, not stats bruh.

I want nothing. Everything I said is based off facts and most of your shyt is just milling about spilling wyour feelings in the air. I don't care. Floyd is the A side and Manny should have fell in line a long time ago. He didn't so here we are. Nothing you said negated my facts and viewpoint based off facts so stop wasting your time and mine. Manny ain't no more special than any other b side to Floyd despite the, money making potential of the fight

:childplease: you sound like a damn fool

why do you think the money making potential of this fight is the biggest of this century??

Why do you think its the most anticipated fight of this century?

If Manny was no more special than any other B side then none of the above would be the case

When you're dealing with a fight of this magnitude you cant just say here , take whatever I offer because im A and you're B and not negotiate... I mean you can, but then youl look like a dumb bytch just like Floydie

I think you might have to re watch that fight friend.

Nah I'm good.

I was content with the amount of times Paulie's head was snapping back from them Broner counters. :mjlol: Then he'd circle the ring and throw a bunch of hissy fit punches that barely landed. Rinse and Repeat.

I rather watch the Hatton fight where he talked about Hatton's wrestling and rough tactics is what made him special and how it wouldn't work in the states, only to be the one to actually clinch for dear life once he gets clocked with one of them Hatton hooks. :heh:

De La Hoya: If No Pacquiao, I'll Push Mayweather-Khan
Posted by: Edward Chaykovsky on 12/8/2014 .

By Edward Chaykovsky

If Top Rank's CEO, Bob Arum, is unable to lock up a deal for a Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao super fight in 2015, then Golden Boy Promotions CEO Oscar De La Hoya is going to do everything possible to make a fight between Mayweather and British superstar Amir Khan.

Khan faces former two-division champion Devon Alexander this coming Saturday in the headline bout of a Golden Boy promoted tripleheader at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. If Khan wins the fight, then is a the likely Plan B candidate to get a crack at the pound-for-pound king.

“One thing for sure is that as Amir Khan's promoter, I'm going to push as hard as I can to get that Mayweather fight, because that's what he deserves. I truly feel that if a Manny Pacquiao fight doesn't happen next year for Floyd, then he has no choice but to fight Amir Khan, especially if Amir Khan has a spectacular performance. I mean, the public are demanding it. The fans are demanding it and that's how we have to push it. I truly feel that Amir Khan fighting a Mayweather, Amir Khan's style can give a lot of trouble to Mayweather," De La Hoya said.



oscar is talking about khan/mayweather now :damn: so much for pacquiao vs mayweather :mjcry:

And they negotiated a purse, and a split... And GB handled all the promotion. And it was only on HBO..And De La Hoya wasn't offered $100 million to make the fight... And Floyd highest ppv was around 300k against big name opponents..

That basically leaves Manny open to fight Andre Berto or The Italian Stallion Paulie.

And....? Bottom line is Floyd fell all the way back. Speaking of 300 k. What was Manny most recent pay per view?

Floyd fell back from what?? Floyd wasn't a draw even against big names opponents compared to Oscar.. them two never could've fought and nobody would've cared.. Oscar could've fought Cotto and did the same numbers
