if there is someone who will beat the denial queen status of someone i know (clue: station tower), then that would be how dodge-y Floyd Mayweather, Jr. is when it comes to battling it out with Congressman Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao, on the ring, of course.

they do, right?

and silence means no this time. Congrats, Gayweather Mayweather, you can finally have my tiara now. happy twirling!!

“Mayweather Remains Silent, Pacquiao Will Fight Cotto or Margarito”

As the deadline set by Top Rank big boss Bob Arum winded down and no communication Floyd Mayweather whatsoever, Arum said he is ready to move on and pit Manny Pacquiao with either Miguel Cotto or Antonio Margarito.  Arum said that there are several reasons why Mayweather refused to fight Pacquiao, but highly renowned boxing promoter said that perhaps it is the current legal situation Mayweather’s trainer/uncle Roger is facing.

Among the two replacements, a Cotto fight has the high chances of happening as there are attractive variables that are involved in such mix. For one, Cotto’s WBA middleweight title on the line, which would present an opportunity for Pacquiao to extend his record to eight titles in eight different weight classes should he win. Arum also added that Cotto is now training under the guidance of one of the top trainers of the sport, Emmanuel Steward. With an expert boxing coach at his corner, Cotto is expected to be better now than the last time he fought Pacquiao.

Although Arum still plans to have Margarito face Pacquiao, there are several instances that might impede the fight such as the marketability of the disgraced Mexican boxer. The possible venue of the fight will also be a problem as Margarito is still not allowed

to fight in the United States. Arum said that if Pacquiao-Margarito happens, it is likely to take place in the Monterrey, Mexico.

Many fighters are also mentioned in the Pacquiao sweepstakes, including light middleweight contender Paul Williams. However, Arum said that while some of the other fighters mentioned are good boxers, they are not lucrative and will not generate the revenue of the same or near the magnitude of a Pacquiao-Cotto or Pacquiao-Margarito showdown.
