It was posted a couple days ago. Then there was supposedly a twitter back-and-forth between Dana and Floyd's manager, but I can't seem to find it.

Mayweather is a gobshite and knows for a fact that the only serious threat to his unbeaten crown is against Pacman.

theres nowt like a bit of plain talk. floyd is an uncouth oik and is depriving the sport of a superb spectacle. He should be forced to fight Manny. Or some other asian. Lol

Manny turned down the fight not mayweather.. Mayweather team are fed up of offering the fight.. Mayweather vs cotto is a much better match and will last longer than roidzilla getting stopped inside 6 :-)

Well said Mike! Bob Arum won't allow it either. Mayweather needs Goldenboy to make the fight with Pacquio happen - Top Rank and Goldenboy don't get along. Why would Mayweather be scared of a guy that met his match in Marquez over 3 bouts and Mayweather breezed through the fight with Marquez after a 18month lay-off. Mayweather offered 40m to Pacquio and Michael Kanz (Pacquio's advisers) went to Vegas to finalise the deal then pulled out at the last minute. Bob Arum probably said no. Most people can't see it but Cotto V Mayweather is a better fight.

Well hopefully after Sergio beating Macklin this weekend he can go onto make an offer to Mayweather if he gets through Cotto.

I think that could be a sweet fight if they can sort it.

really cant see Mayweather going up another weight or Martinez coming down to get that fight on.. anyways Alvarez has a contract in place for if he beats Mosley he will then face the winner of Mayweather vs Cotto.

Alvarez is slow too and Mosley is shot though wouldnt be suprised if Mosley drops him he's a strong kid but wild puncher next big thing is adrien broner and Gary russel jnr,don't think for one minute pacman is scared of mayweather just think it's about money and mayweather beats up women hence the little trip away x

mayweather ducked Paul Williams and margarito and Martinez said he'd fight at 154 v mayweather or pacman x
Mike Hill
Posted: 2012-03-19 11:01:36
mayweather only goes away 1st june and bitch admitted to attacking him first lol... pacman was offered an equal split.. he is ducking a drug test, i believe is off stuff but still a little bit showing up on a private test so wont risk a real test until nothing is showing... Mayweather to retire in next 18 months and stays undefeated no matter who he fights over that period x
vinny
Posted: 2012-03-19 12:01:18
suprise you have a hand free mike after you finished clapping for mayweather he chinned his mrs and threatened his kids if it wasn't in las Vegas he'd be locked up now and where's ya amazing proof pacman takes drugs??? let's be honest Roger beats up women too as he got caught funny that as a boxer he's class as human he's arrogant and chins women,no comparison in human terms between him and manny I think mayweather would win and the cotto fight will be boring because mayweather is never exciting regardless of skill level x
Mike Hill
Posted: 2012-03-19 12:22:06
sorry i dint mean it like that she did attack him first and then claimed he was hitting her in face, sureley more damage than a lil scratch would be there being hit by Mayweather, 2 sides to every story, suppose kind of like the tyson rape...

when asked about drugs he stutters and tries to change subject... he is also able to take a better shot off bigger men than the very small guys he use to fight...

like Mayweather says if he was to go up to heavy weight and fight wlad or vitali would people not be saying he is roided up, its the same ammount of weight categories as pacman as gone up ;-) x
vinny
Posted: 2012-03-19 12:57:01
lol mikes now columbo "he stutters" come on mike hahaha he takes the same style tests as everybody else he fought Mosley who was done for peds and Roy jones took them as did James toney it's cop out a smoke screen and it's to cause upset he'll be pacman but not having this bullshit from his crack head dad who talks complete shit who when he went head to head with Freddy looked a nob x
Mike Hill
Posted: 2012-03-19 13:35:54
lol you name 2 guys i always said maybe taking summat haha.. everybody wants to the sport to be clean, mosley and de la hoya said the same thing, mosley failed a drugs test remember?? lol.

there are alot of sports out there that are not clean id like to think that boxers can keep this sport clean and compete at the highest level without doping x

there was a survey private one asking if you could take an undetected drug and win a gold medal yet you'd lose 10 years off your life would you still take it 75% said they would (read it ages ago and it's atheletics) it's the competitive element in them that drives them in any sport it's a sad alas part of our modern day society and I don't know if pacman has or hasn't taken it and I believe it's still holding out for bigger payday and it may never happen anyway x

Mike your very funny and your comments have about as much substance as the world ending in 2012.

The mayweather and pacman fight was about money, but not about the 50/50 split. They both agreed a 50/50 split, but what coudn't be agreed was the venue. Mayweather was committed to Vegas, which would see a 40 million pound fight, split 50/50 that 20 million each. Pacman however (and promotional team) wanted the fight at the new american football stadium, which has a capacity of 150,000 people. The revenue generated from fighting at the new stadium would have been 60million, therefore the split would have been 30million each. Pacman and co were trying to push the fight out by 1 month to gain an additional 10 million each, which makes perfect business sense. Don't forget, boxing is a business, regardless of what the punters want to see in terms of fights, its all about the bottom line. The olypmic style tests will be done and agreed to when the fight is made, later this year. Providing both get through there next fights.

In terms of the comment made about how Pacman can now take a punch from a heavier man when before he couldn't from a light man, this has no tangible evidence suggesting he's on drugs to achieve this. Good/improved conditioning and putting on weight the correct way will actually assist in his punch resistance. If he cut too much weight when fighting lighter, this could have contributed to him being dropped in the past as the resistance wouldn;t have been there. Ive had my bell rang a fair few times at a light weight, but when boxing at light welter/welter i can handle the power better and haven't felt the effects of a big shot so much.

Innocent till proven guilty I say I know about the stadium agreement also jimbob I do not think either is scared or each other just prefer manny as a person talent wise they are among the greats to ever lace em up and mike loves mayweather he's got a tattoo ; ) joking aside Facebook had world heroes of boxing it'd great debate too x
Mike Hill
Posted: 2012-03-20 13:54:20
Mayweather had already booked MGM grand, if it was about the venue they should agree to fight after this 1.. why would he agree to take the test then less than a week later say he's afraid of needles haha come on, fighters that come up weight with the greatest conditioning coaches and trainers on the planet very rarely dominate with power, infact i cant remember any doing that.

Gonna have Mayweather and Tyson tattooed on ma chest uncle Vinny haha xx

mayweather booked fuck all except a cell in jail ta ra x

Don't forget that Mayweather did book that date Cinco de mayo(May 5th) purposely with the intention of signing a latino fighter and not Pacquiao. Why else would you pick that date? Money of course.
I don't think he wants the fight with Pacquiao and I can't see it happening. I don't think he's scared of him but he's scared of losing.

There's more of a chance that Sergio Martinez will fight him in November. He's willing to drop to 154lbs and do 80-20 split.
If Mayweather doesn't take an 80-20 split then we know he's ducking him.
It's a shame Paul williams hasn't pushed more the fight with Mayweather either. I can see him beating Mayweather with his long range jab. It would be a dull fight but he could pull it off.

With paul williams low guard and come forward style it would look like a diego corrales fight and mayweather would pick him off very easily, now martinez sparked williams, martinez would be a much better fight and another win for mayweather :-)
Raj Mboxer
Posted: 2012-03-21 10:27:44
Paul Williams is a lot taller than Diego Corrales and would be able to keep a longer distance. Williams also has a lot more power than Corrales. (RIP Corrales)

Martinez would be a good fight with Mayweather but I'd also like to see a 3rd fight between Martinez and Williams.
Mike Hill
Posted: 2012-03-21 15:47:26
power dont mean shit unless you can land it.. Martinez is improving all the time i think it would be another ko victory for him

Williams v canelo I like Williams that shot was rirdiculas he got sparked with. And Williams has the tools to make it hard for anyone having said that he got a gift v Lara I read good debate boys x
billybigconkers
Posted: 2012-03-22 05:26:30
williams will get knocked out again in his career with the same shot that martinez nailed him with, williams has the same mentality that pavlik had under lowe...i.e they've only lost 1-2 fights, why change what's worked for all the wins, problem is the losses highlighted flaws that need fixed

wiliams was getting caught with the same shot by lara all night and the fact he got the win was dubious to say the least, if lara had more pop williams would have been sparked

kirland williams would be a good fight as both are vulnerable, see that as an exciting fight, styles make fights, i think canelo would eat williams up
vinny
Posted: 2012-03-22 08:02:55
Dunno what it is about canelo he just doesnt do it for me at all maybe am missing something : ) x
billybigconkers
Posted: 2012-03-22 10:06:33
yeah i don't see him canelo an atg but he's pretty solid and well rounded, he's young and improving and he's had a silly amount of fights already

i don't see anything special about williams tbh, he's no tommy hearns and the only thing that was to pw's advantage was his height..which i think actually plays against him, the blueprints there from martinez, let williams give up his reach as he doesn't fight tall and then take his head off as he leaves his chin in the air and his hands too low

i think kirkland williams would be an interesting fight though, maybe a case of a beats b, b beats c, c beats a, as ishida is a common opponent

did you catch the angulo kirkland fight vinny?

was a good un x
vinny
Posted: 2012-03-22 12:13:06
Never seen Kirkland more than a little on YouTube think Williams isn't amazing either Gary Russell jar and gamboa are the bollocks mate : ) just read mayweather gave 49,000$ for kid to have heart operation fair play he has that side to him it's his bullshit I hate x
