Manny "the duckman" Pacquiao/Bob Arum

Both these clowns will no doubt come up with more excuses to not face the best fighter in the world Floyd Mayweather.

http://www.fighthype.com/news/article15746.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

Will Arum copy the excuses used here. http://www.fighthype.com/pages/content11512.html

Arum prevented Mayweather from fighting De La Hoya so Floyd was forced to pay out his contract to leave to make the fight happen.

Arum also prevented Cotto from fighting Mayweather and only used his name to help promote Cotto. As soon as Cotto became a free agent guess what happened? Mayweather vs Cotto.

Pacquiao the coward continues to hide behind his promoter who is famous for bribes in the past and for this comment "yesterday I was lying and today I am telling the truth". According to some reports Rios and Pacquiao did well below 400k and close to the 300k mark. Of course Arum can never reveal the numbers like always. Pacquiao would be lucky now to demand 40% such is his stock low. But even than Arum wouldn't settle for less than 50-50 which he has no intention of making anyway. Idiots can still be blinded by blaming Mayweather but if you can see the truth that staring right at you it is Arum and Pacquiao who dont want the fight happen. Pacquiao has ducked a Mayweather style in the past in Guzman.

So which will be new excuse to role from team Pacquiao and Arum?

Vote for your choices

5 stars - Pacquiao has a headache which wont recover in time for May

4 stars - Mayweather has to have two hands tied behind his back

3 stars - Mayweather cant punch Manny in the fight or Manny gets 10 free shots at him

2 stars - The fight has to be in Antartica because Manny doesnt want to pay taxes

1 star - Manny can choose Ward, Golovkin, Klitschko to come in the ring at any time and fight Mayweather.

Im sure Mayweather would duck someone who has looked dogs hit since 2010.

pacman knows he would never have beaten floyd

Paq probably thinks he can beat Floyd. Importantly Arum knows he can't. Hence the fight never got made.

Give it a rest.

There's more to boxing than those two fighters.

In 100 years time they'll barely be mentioned.

They will be. Floyd as a great and manny for his weight jumping exploits. The asterix re drugs and catchweight higgery jaggery will be there but ignored.

I can name quite a few pre 20s boxers. Mainly the hw guys and a splattering of other weights. Rhe reason is they were great boxers in their era.

Jukiebox...its called greatness, ppl remember the greats. Ppl remember Tom Crib because he was the greatest pre regulatory pugilist. People remember Jack Johnson because he was the great black boxer in a time of racial inequality. We remember legends mate!

Calling those two legends is a bit of a stretch
