Heh... so now Mayweather and Pacquiao are going to put off their fight again and collect money fighting nobodies..again?

Once... ok, maybe. Twice. It's a con. They both know boxing is dead the second a fight between them ends. They're colluding to get more fights in before the last big score.

As sure as we all are that Hobbit gets made I was sure the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight was going to happen this time... - Mel Profit Jul 18, 08:03 4
- They'll fight... then they'll kiss and make up and say they are both champions - stewie Jul 18, 08:11 3
  - I was sure the fight was going to happen...now I'm only 95% sure it happens. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 18, 08:14 2
    - I'm growing more and more confident that it never happens. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 18, 08:23 1
      - *ding* -- nm - Black Rabbit Jul 18, 08:46
No - Mayweather is running from Pacquiao. -- nm - Diva Jul 18, 07:39
This one is entirely on Mayweather. Pacquiao agreed to pretty much all the conditions that Mayweather used to duck the last time. - Will Hunting Jul 18, 07:32 14
- and then put him in a corner by making the offer time limited. - tRuMaN at home Jul 18, 07:36 7
  - He had weeks as an exclusive. Everyone in boxing knows when you get prime PPV dates, you need a fight. - Will Hunting Jul 18, 07:53
  - Mayweather's had years to figure this out. He doesn't want this fight because he doesn't want to lose. Ever. - Diva Jul 18, 07:42 5
    - That doesn't make sense in the context of this situation... being undefeated having ducked Pacquiao taints you forever - stewie Jul 18, 07:44 3
      - I hope they fight. But Mayweather's marketability is heavily tied into the 'undefeated' tag. - Diva Jul 18, 07:52 2
        
        You say his name now and the first thing anyone says is... "coward" - stewie Jul 18, 07:58 1
        
        Until the man on the street actually says it, it means nothing - Will Hunting Jul 18, 08:00
    - possibly. -- nm - tRuMaN at home Jul 18, 07:43
- So a good guy and a bad guy has been created via the media... that won't help sell the fight when it happens or anything - stewie Jul 18, 07:35 5
  - It's good to see you thinking again. -- nm - TFox Jul 18, 10:07
  - Oh, we agree it's a con. You just think both are in on it; the only con I see if Mayweather. - Will Hunting Jul 18, 07:55 3
    - that's exactly what he'll do. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 18, 07:56 2
      - What the tool doesn't understand is you can be considered the best with losses. - Will Hunting Jul 18, 07:58 1
        
        absolutely true... - Mel Profit Jul 18, 08:06
