I wouldn't say he's a coward (esp not to his face!) but if this is true I

certainly think this shows his true feelings towards the Pac Man!

I'd get in the ring with both of them for that money - even though the draft of one of their punches would no doubht knock me out!

I don't like Mayweather because of how self absorbed and pathologically conceited he is.

He's a pr*ck but I don't think he's scared of Pacquiao, I imagine he probably believes he'd beat him. The annoying thing, however, is that Floyd seemingly won't take a fight unless he thinks he's certain to win, and this has been the case since the Castillo fight, like, 10 years ago.

He probably would beat Pacquiao as well - he has the perfect style for it - but he's too busy pissing about either waiting till the offers start to reach the $100m mark or till Pac starts to show signs of wear and tear.

Will be tragic if his antics end up costing us the biggest fight in a generation.

Floyd is going to have to stink the joint out if he wons against Manny. Manny is the fastes fighter Floyd will have ever seen and has the energy level and rythym to seriously disrupt Floyd. Floyd does not want Manny and I expect he is waiting to see his preformance against Marquez to see if he has lost a step. If he hassliped, then Mayweather will sign.

Mayweather is a punk and a disgrage to boxing. He certainly has the skills set to out box Manny, but it's just too much risk for his precious "O".

both are talented fighters. probably close to the best in this generation
but if I had to wage money on the fight.

I'd go with Manny with a unanimous decision.

Mayweather is probably waiting to spot some weakness in Manny, and THEN he'll probably agree to the fight. However, it's probably going to be a long time before the mighty Pac-Man weakens, so I think it's doubtful that we will see this fight anytime soon, if at all. It's a shame because Mayweather needs to be beaten, and Manny is probably the only guy capable of such a feat.

I think Manny would win as well. Mayweather has been making some pretty outragious demands over the last few years, for the fight to go ahead.

Who in their right mind would turn down 65 Mil, even after tax the report says it's still worth 30-40 Mil in the hand.

It would be an awesome fight, I think Manny would come out on top. But I'm doubtful it will ever happen. Mayweather's ego will always get in the way
