Except no one was lining up to fight Pac like they are with Floyd. Only thing is, they don't even know that they're beat before they enter the ring. No one was really scared of Pac. People are scared of Floyd, not because he has KO power, but because the chances are he is going to beat you. Now look at Pac, he get's knocked out, has other questionable wins over the guy who knocked him out, and no one is looking at him as the great threat, the hill/mountain to topple over. But people look at Floyd like that. No one is saying "I won the Manny lottery" but you see people doing insane things to win the "Floyd Mayweather lottery" and you can't get passed this. They're in two different leagues when it comes to that bro. I mean seriously, you had Chris Algeiri talking about he was gonna knock Pac out. How many people are talking about knocking Floyd out? And how close to they get to actually doing it?
everyone says their going to knock out Floyd, Mosley, Victoria Ortiz, Guerrero, etc same shit. Plus I don't really understand what this Floyd lottery you're talking about, it's the same lottery getting to fight Manny, in many cases they make more money fighting Pacquiao.

Mayweather calls it the lottery cuz he needs a fighter that he knows he can beat, cherry picking, to get that guaranteed money plus ppv buys. So for him it's a lottery

Shut the fuck with the cherry picking shit. 2 of the last 3 fights Manny has fought bums. Everyone wanted to see Maidana fight Floyd a 2nd time. Floyd fought Canelo who everyone thought was a big risk made it look easy. Fought Cotto at 154 not 145 like the catchweight king Manny. Guerrero was the only questionable fight he had but a lot of people thought Guerrero was worthy. I certainly thought he was better then he was. But thats the difference between a great boxer and a reckless fighter in Manny. Guerrero have given Manny problems I guarantee it

So you are telling me that Mayweather vs Maidana 2 had more ppv sales than Pt. 1! Oh shit, my bad. I forgot how popular marathons are in USA. So when Mayweather says fighters are willing to go up or down in weight to fight him, it's the Mayweather lottery. But with Manny he's a catchweight king? And don't bring up Floyd's 154 fights. Why don't he fight Lara? CHERRY PICK! he's gonna drop the title once Haymon robs Lara of his title watch.

Guerrero would get stopped by Pac he barely made it past Yoshihiro Kamegai. His style is the easiest style for Manny, come forward no speed no power no hope.

And that's kind of hilarious that you tried to discredit Pacquiao's win over Cotto because it was a catchweight yet praise Floyds win over Canelo, which was, in fact, a catchweight. Guess you didn't know that. And of course Floyd vs JMM was a catchweight fight as well so yes even Floyd does catchweight fights.

Look at the end of the day both guys obviously have had amazing careers, both are obviously hall of famers and all time greats. Both have great wins. Neither I believe should be labeled duckers Floyd gets a lot of unwarranted hate and same is true for Manny. Both are amazing fighters. One being one of the greatest defensive fighters of our generation and the other one of the greatest offensive fighters.

They call it the Mayweather Lottery or Mayweather sweepstakes. It is NOT the same thing for Manny. You don't have boxers talking about each other and saying why they deserve a shot at pac. You see Khan saying he deserves a shot at Floyd, not Pac. Porter? Same. Alexander? Same and the list goes on and on.

probably because those guys are with Al Haymon and they are realistic. Before Pac lost to Marquez yes there were tons of guys wanting a shot and saying they deserved a shot at Pac because Pacand fFloyd at that time had virtually the same PPV buys and obviously viewed as the top two guys by far. Obviously since Pac got KTFO his stock dropped big time since then.

well, HBO is talking to CBS, not Espinoza, and Manny called out Floyd and did not retract his statement. $200 mill is being put up for this fight and Manny, TR, and HBO are down. So it's really up to Floyd. He mentioned Manny rejecting $40 mill, now will Floyd reject $100 mill? It's all up to Floyd....

it's up to everybody involved bro, it's not that simple to say it's all on Floyd. There are like 50 people involved in this, the networks, the mone, so much shit has to go perfectly. I believe Floyd and Manny both want it right now. Both are at the tail end of their careers and I'm sure they both know it.

Im not being PC lol what I said I believe is the truth. There's hella shit that has to go right. You have to have HBO and Showtime work together. You need Top Rank and Al Haymon working together. You need the money, the venue, etc etc have to be right. Is Golden Boy involved or will this be strictly Top Rank and TMT? so much shit has to be worked out.

Cherry picking Marquez? Bradley? When was the last time Floyd fought someone on the p4p list? After receiving a viscous ko by JMM he fights hard hitting Rios and doesn't run around but instead ducks his face up too! STOP IT!
What happens when you face your "mandatory" but he is not a P4p fighter? Reeeeverse....What happens when you face a "P4p fighter" but he is not your mandatory? Robert Guerrero...Shane Mosley...nobody's ever satisfied.

Pacquiao, who watched the fight in the Philippines, told Manilla radio station DZBB that he would agree to blood testing, but only if it is not taken within 24 days of the fight. That is basically the same stance that derailed the fight the first time around.

"For me, as long as the drug test is not done close to the match, I'll agree because if they'll get blood from me close to the match, it will be a disadvantage for me because I'm smaller and he's big," Pacquiao said.

No, the bay area is again posting stuff not being clear at all. That is not something Pacquiao said about the current negotiations that's some quote from years ago.

Bro, since Floyd became number 1 p4p and stayed 1 p4p everyone has been gunning for him. You have people asking and begging for Hopkins, GGG and Ward to drop down in weight just so they can fight the guy. NO ONE was ever lining up to fight Pac like that and it wasn't because they are scared of Pac.
