908, I get the sense that it doesn't matter why Mayweather beats, you'll always find an excuse. As for your flipflopping act, its kinda funny. I still can't figure out how since Pacquaio-Cotto has been announced, and the majority of people have voiced that they believe Pac is gonna make an Everlast bag outta your man crush, you've been on here bashing Pac. You've been saying the same sh*t about him that you're saying about Mayweather. But then, Mayweather goes out and totally destroys a guy you picked to KO him, and now you're back on Pac's nuts when it comes to the Mayweather-Pacquaio debate. Although I thought it was funny how you conceed that Mayweather will whip his ass with Pac in the ring. But even if/when he does that, Pac is still the "better" fighter. In reality, you're a joke. And you're not even man enough to admit when you're wrong. And you're just like a person that lies a lot. They get caught up in there own lies because they can't remember them all. You say so much dumb, contradicting sh*t, that you don't even remember half the sh*t you get on here babbling about.

You really think that if Pac somehow beats Cotto that he aint gonna have all the leverage in a Floyd fight? Floyd a welterweight for 4 years now beat up on a guy who was fighter at 130 just last year in what most people I spoke to called a boring fight. And if Pac, a guy who also fought at 130 just last year happens to go up and beats who most people consider to be the #1 welterweight in the world in Miguel Cotto. In a fight that I will guarantee will be a bigger seller and 10 times more exciting than the Floyd/Marquez fight and you don't think Manny will rule the negotiating table if he ends up winning against Cotto?


I don't know what you smokin, but Pookie from New Jack CIty aint got nothing on you.

Pac aint got sh*t to prove to anybody anymore. The only ones that feel the same way about Floyd are the delusional Floyd nutswingers that make threads calling him the greatest of our generation when he hasn't even fought the best in his weightclass.


Pac aint got sh*t to prove, everyone wants to fight him right now but still you don't see him forcing superfeatherweights that wanna fight him up to 140 and after thrashing then make false claims of greatness.

I don't know how ya'll gather that Pac has the power in negotiations with Mayweather. Mayweather-Marquez soldout. And if the PPV does more than 400K buys, Mayweather will have outdrawn Pac in their PPV fights with all three common opponents (de la Hoya, Hatton, Marquez.) And quite frankly, I think Pacquaio-Cotto does less than Pacquaio-de la Hoya and Pacquaio-Hatton. Cotto is basically a nobody in the mainstream. This will be Pac's first chance in since the Marquez rematch to sell a PPV on his own. And his trackrecord isn't that good. Pacquaio-Marquez II did pretty well (400K.) But aside from that, Pac has basically been a PPV flop when carrying the promotion by himself.

So let me get this straight. Pac should do everything in his power duck Mayweather because he knows he'll lose. Isn't that what you get on here daily and b*tch about Mayweather doing to the "top welters?"

I'm sure some of you gloat in Manny getting a bigger paycheck, it doesn't mean a thing about fighting. Lennox Lewis can return now and probably get $25 million. $10 million is a nice payday for the little boxer Shane Mosely dismissed as a waste of time.

Cotto certainly knows Manny runs shit. That's why he's conceding to 145. Cotto has already bowed before his master.

Thats not even including all the other lawsuits that are smacking him from all different angles. Floyd is no longer the cash cow and should bow to every one of Manny's demands. After all Manny will most likely get embarassed facing the man. Why should he go out on such a sour note for anything less than a 70/30 split in his favor.


He aint the one in desperate need of cash. He really don't need Mayweather at all. I'm pretty sure at this point he knows he runs sh*t and all roads lead to Manny Pacquiao.

$10M for Mayweather (vs Marquez) while $25M for Pacquiao (vs Cotto.)

Now who is the real Cash Cow of boxing?

Oh! I would not wonder now how hypocrite both his fans and Self Proclaimed "Money" or "Cash Cow"... He and his fans even alleged Floyd of being the best...
ALL LIE!!!!!

IRS, Reporters and Nevada Athletic Commission revealed Mayweather's financial situation. He got $10M prize money for fighting Marquez of course plus plopped PPV.

908, the beauty of all this is that your guy (Cotto) has a chance to expose Mayweather as the fraud you say he is. Because as we speak, the ball is totally in Cotto's court. You say that Mayweather-Pacquaio is a sham fight. Well, Cotto has the opportunitu to keep it from happening. Now, I'll agree that the arguement that Mayweather isn't a legit welterweight can no longer be used. So in reality, last Saturday night a great welterweight beat up a great lightweight. Mayweather has shown what a great welter is supposed to do to a great light. Therefore, if Cotto is the fighter that you think he is, he should have no problems disposing of Pac. Because there are a couple things that we know. First, Pacquaio and Marquez are pretty much equals. And secondly, we know that you believe that Cotto is better than Maywetaher. So in that case, Cotto should beat Pac aseasy, or easier than Mayweather did Marquez. And if he does, there won't be any excuse for Mayweather not to fight him.
