Floyd Mayweather has spent the better part of his career antagonizing, taunting and then beating every opponent ever put in front of him.
Equally as brilliant, Manny Pacquiao has won a major title in every weight class between 105-147 lbs.
So it seemed only fitting that the two most talented fighters of this era face off. It would be the ultimate contrast in styles, Manny Pacquiao is a storm in the ring who never stops moving forward. On the other side, Floyd Mayweather is arguably the sport’s best defensive fighter ever! If they ever stepped in the same ring it would undoubtedly shatter all pay per view records.
Yet getting them to share a ring is like getting Democrats and Republicans to endorse the same candidate. Twice this year the two fighters camps were unable to agree on terms for a fight. The bickering got so bad that the groups went to mediation but even that proved to be an exercise in futility.
The majority of boxing fans and writers have placed the blame squarely on Floyd Mayweather. Although he does deserve a large portion of the blame, there are a number of factors preventing this fight from taking place.
Don’t blame it all on “Money” here are ten obstacles in the way of a Pacquiao and Mayweather fight.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. accused of battery
A security guard has accused boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. of poking him in the face several times and threatening him over parking violations outside Mayweather's home, police said Tuesday.
Mayweather refused to speak with police officers called to his house to investigate the Monday evening confrontation, but a misdemeanour battery report was taken and was being submitted to the Clark County district attorney for possible prosecution, Las Vegas police Officer Marcus Martin said.
The guard told police that Mayweather has been in an ongoing dispute with homeowner association security officers over parking outside his home.
The guard, whose name was not made public, told police he was writing a new round of citations for several vehicles parked improperly on the street outside Mayweather's home when the boxer threatened and attacked him.
“Mr. Mayweather became agitated and came out of his house,” Martin said. “When the guard rolled down the window, he poked the security guard in the face with his finger several times, according to the security officer.”
