The excitement and money it will bring will be tremendous and surely will break any sporting records. Unfortunately, Floyd is reluctant to have the fight.

He knew that it could be his career-ending fight and he doesn’t want to suffer the same fate as suffered by others in the fists of Pacquiao. He can’t stand the sight of Hatton gasping for air while lying motionless on the canvass, Dela Hoya quitting while on stool, bloodied and rearranged faces of Margarito and Cotto, and human punching bag Clottey. This could be the reason why on one interview, Floyd stated that his health comes first. And that’s understandable.

But one thing worth observing is Floyd’s fans reactions towards the fight. I can’t understand why were they so worried whenever Pac makes move to make the fight happen. On the other hand, they are very happy whenever Floyd was able to make excuses or ridiculous demands designed at stalling the fight.

They will blame Bob Arum and Pacquiao for the fight not happening, and whenever team Pac agree to Floyd’s demand, Mayweather’s fans become so worried and bothered as they wait for Floyd’s answer. It could only mean one thing, that they themselves knew Floyd can lose the fight, or worst, can be knocked out by Pac anytime once the bell ring. They knew that Floyd had little chances of winning against Pac that is why they are very happy whenever Floyd was able to avoid Manny.

Floyd fans are still blaming Manny Pacquiao for his refusal to have a random blood test despite knowing that it was no longer an issue. Bob Arum was all over the news, in the net and in almost every sporting news agency announcing the test was no longer an issue, and even Manny Pacquiao in some interview stated the same, and yet, Floyd fans are asking for a proof! Whooah! I don’t understand this! They can’t even accept the fact that Manny agreed to lesser purse just to make the fight happen. Instead of being happy that Manny Pacquiao is trying all he can to have the fight the boxing fans wanted to see, Floyd fans are so worried. And it was manifested in all their post or comments in most articles about the two fighters in different boxing sites. Instead of logically refuting the other side’s claim, they resort to racist remarks and illogical comments. They tend to bring old issues which had already been resolved just to blame Pac and Arum. They try to distort facts to make Manny look bad. Instead of being bothered and worried about Pac’s actions to make the fight happen, they should be happy that at least, there is hope that the fight is going to happen (if Floyd will finally be cornered). And they should be very happy when Floyd does the same, after his jail time.
