There's one in that post

How about the 'Mayweather wants the fight at 154 & with 10oz gloves' thing, only for it to be announced that it was at 147 with 8oz gloves.

I know you treat his word as gospel, but just skim through boxingscene articles for the past fortnight related to the fight to see who's been saying what, only for it to be undermined when the actual facts come out.

I think Bob Arum is a piece of shit, but he'd miss no opportunity to try & show up Mayweather, if Floyd was making stupid demands. The fact he's not doing that says it all.

As for the bolded part, one COULD speculate that there is some gag order & Roach is accidentally slipping up & violating it, but that would be a breach of contract & would land him & Top Rank in serious shit. The more likely scenario is he's just saying whatever comes to his head to appear as if he's in the loop or to just stir up shit.
We don't have to speculate, according to Arum and Schaefer from the start of the negotiations that a confidentiality clause was in place.
Richard Schaefer, Bob Arum won't comment on status of Mayweather-Pacquiao negotiations | Floyd Mayweather - - MLive.com
well so if theres a gag order we can just write off anything Roach has said and shouldn't be considered FACT that Pacquiao has already signed, as you just blindly said right now
