PBF just needs a good ass kicking. Just sucks that his only legit challenge is Manny and he's protected by Arum.

Boxing has been dead for a long time now. Pac-man is the only one keeping it alive and now since Mayweather and him won't fight.......WHO FRIGGIN CARES ABOUT IT.
I was a huge boxing fan........Muhammad Ali, Foreman, Frazier, Norton
Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvin Hagler, Roberto Duran
Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield
What is left? What was the last big boxing event that you were really excited about and fulfilled the expectations? It's been a VERY long time.

Mayweather weighs in at 151
Cotto weighs in at 154, super welterweight limit
No surprise there

dude, no one said floyd isn't to blame. but those that follow it know that he's not the only one responsible for this fight not happening
25% floyd
25% manny
50% arum
I understand you're a pac man fan, as am I, but Arum is a big reason for this fight not happening.

Bet you said the same thing after Ali/foreman/frazier retired. Oh wait, then came leonard/hagler/duran. then you said the same thing and oh wait, tyson/holyfield came. then you said the same thing and oh wait DLH/Hopkins/Roy Jones/Tito came. Then you said the same thing and oh wait Manny/Floyd came. Point is, someone always comes and becomes the next big thing.
boxing is dead but Floyd is making a guaranteed 32M for this fight and thats without the percentage of PPV buys. Repeat, 32 MILLION for 36 minutes. That's more than ANY OTHER athlete gets for the sport itself. So obviously, money (the currency not floyd) says that boxing is not dead.
oh also, the highest viewed PPV was DLH/Floyd which had more buys than any Tyson fight.

LOL, Floyd and Canelo using illegal gloves.
@latimespugmire
Apparently, Mosley trainer Naazim Richardson (no stranger to glove issues) tipped Cotto camp off that the plastic thumb was no good

Sergio Martinez is the real champ.
He's adopted the Roy Jones style and KO's everyone he faces.

They have both punked out at one time or another... mayweather used the punk drug test excuse last year and a few months ago mayweather called pac man out and pac man signed a different fight... heres the tweets mayweather tweeted ..
"Manny Pacquiao I'm calling you out let's fight May 5th and give the world what they want to see." - Floyd Mayweather
"My Jail Sentence was pushed back because the date was locked in. Step up Punk." - Floyd Mayweather
IMO both have lost my respect and ultimately Fight fans are the losers

f**k floyd. Just cuz his punk ass is going to jail he expects Manny to cave in and bow down to his demands? I hope they pin him down and make him the sally behind bars.
