It could be close - Arum in talks with Showtime for Floyd /Pacquiao Mega Fight

[Beanz]

Pacquiao, Roach already preparing for Floyd Mayweather


""People can prepare for (a fight) early next year," Pacquaio said. "It is a fight that I want. It is a fight the fans deserve."

[imp]

Has to be 70-30 split (60-40 maybe?)

Olympic style testing.

Las vegas.

Massive gloves.

147..no catchweights.

Floyd wants the fight
Manny wants the fight
Al haymon wants the fight.

Multi billionaire bob arum WILL NOT leave this earth playing the B side to mayweather..just be happy to get khan.

[walrus]

Should be fifty fifty, just make it happen. Sure Floyd has bigger ppv numbers but this will be bigger because it's Manny. Don't let money stop the fight. It's like Bio Gates and Warren Buffet arguing over a dollar.

Its pride matey.

Fans and legacy doesnt matter to bob arum or even floyd.

Floyd will not do a deal for 50-50.

He is the A side fighter just like oscar was and the big problem is that 92 yr old Bob cant bring himself to accept this.

Bob will talk all the good stuff on the cameras but around that meeting table there is no bending.

This fight CAN happen but only if manny was a free agent or if Bob arum can play 2nd fiddle.

Floyd is to blame as well but anyone in his position would do the same thing when this amount of money is involved.

I won't believe it until these two idiots are in the ring together.

Even then, it's still possible one of them will back out hahaha

[IamInuit]

Let it go. This is the one that got away. Besides, if Manny goes to 140 then they will say that its to late in the day for him to go back up and they will need to do it at 142. "We waited to long and we are at 140 now"

I can almost hear it.

[fan johnny]

I won't believe it until these two idiots are in the ring together.

I can believe itn when it's publish with the commission and they set a venue, but we have seen fighter's back out even then only they are liable. I don't think Floyd will throw money away, if it actually got that far.

Same here.

[Syntax Error]

Agree 100%.

I've had my fill of these two clowns & their will-they-won't-they saga is monumentally boring after 5 years.

By the time they eventually share a ring (very unlikely, I know) , they'll either need hip replacements or a resection of their prostates as they'll be so aged!

Sam Watson: Floyd Mayweather Jr. wants Manny Pacquiao 'real bad' - Ring TV

Manny is more for the fans at this point as he has nothing to loose and after he gets 6 losses he can just say he wasnt in his prime etc or ariza shouldnt have left him..lol

Should this phantom fight ever play out, I think its safe to say that neither are in their prime and also that such would be the first thing out of their teams mouth for the loser.

They are both on the slide and one has an 0. Now I would think that if they (Floyds team) were considering it they would want this for the 50th or maybe the Marciano equaling 49th.

Different era. Different opponents.

BUT it would be nice to be 50-0 and floyd must think about this figure bigtime.

48 - khan or alexander

49 - danny garcia

50 - ?

He won't fight Khan or Garcia he'll probably fight Cotto because he likes to regurgitate, rinse and repeat, cover every angle, remove risk, be dull and predictable, fight at home, struggle against muppets and then take instagram pics of himself in bed with his money. How can you take someone like that seriously ?
