Despite months of Negotiation between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr, Pacquiao would have to settle for Mexican Antonio Margarito or Puerto Rican Miguel Cotto. Top rank promoter Bob Arum, has given Mayweather a deadline for the propose November 13 fight but Mayweather decided ignore the deadline and take time off from boxing.

I just don’t get it. After coming out of retirement, he fought only twice just to retire again? Was it all for the money? I don’t think it’s about glory. If it is, he should have chosen to fight tougher boxers. He is all talk. He keeps on saying that he is the best fighter but refuses to fight the only person that fuels the doubt of his so called supremacy in the ring. The only thing that he could brag about is his undefeated record other than that nothing.

So why did he dictate all those ridiculous demands like the Olympic style drug testing or the unreasonable share with the revenues of the fight? I guess he didn’t expect that Pacquiao would agree on the terms. Now he is left with an excuse of retiring just to keep him perfect record unblemished.

It’s a shame though. It could have been an historic fight. Both fighters have the speed and power in their arsenal. Now the question is who Pacquiao would face next.
