What will be the excuse for the fight Not happening this time?
Look at my post that's second on the thread. Bob simply says (contrary to previous statements that he couldn't wait until post-June for a potential Mayweather fight) that Manny won't be ready to fight until "the summertime."
Arum is most to blame but if Manny and Roach really wanted this, it would happen, obviously.
This is all very simple, really. Floyd had serious misgivings about getting in the ring with Pacquiao until he saw the Pac-JMM fight. Now that he's more motivated, this jail business gets in the way.
Peterson is not a legitimate test for pac. As mentioned before he is not even a welterweight. Leave him for khan.
Pac must fight:-
1.mayweather
2. Marquez
3. mayweather
4. Bradley?
Word is that Mayweather is going to end up fighting Cotto in May.
Not particularly happy or excited about that.
The jail postponing seems awfully preferential to me
A fight with Marquez?There's no way JMM can win. Maybe if Pac leaves on a stretcher but after seeing their 3 fights, do you really think JMM could get the nod on a desicion? I doubt it specially after all the money that can be made with a mega fight vs Floyd.
Mayweather vs Cotto? I just can't see Cotto hurting Floyd or even winning a single round really. Let's hope we don't hear people going "Oh, Cotto was old" because it is not like Floyd is getting any younger either. Pac is the only one I can see hurting Floyd but after seeing how he can't handle JMM, I would give Floyd a better chance of winning.
Typical. Maybe he can find some fat neighborhood kid or his mom to thump his chest and step tooPut em on stilts, stuff his trousers with rocks and pass them off as legit 147 guys, who knows.
Fuck Floyd. Go to jail. Then come back and make your millions.
I wonder how much money Mayweather has burnt through since all of this legal stuff has begun? He might need two fights against Pacman this year to cover expenses?
Time is running out and May 5th looks good and so does a rematch in November!
Blame Bob Arum for no Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather fight - ESPN
Arum apparently said shortly after Mayweather's new ruling that Pacquiao suffered a cut in the Marquez fight and to be safe he wants him to fight no earlier than June. I think it's obvious Manny and his camp want the fight but Arum is being a twat.
I don't think Arum is scared of putting Pacquiao in with Mayweather. Win or lose Pacquiao only has a couple of fights left regardless and the minimal financial impact of him losing to Floyd would be far outweighed by the amount of money the super-fight would make.
I just think that he really dislikes Floyd because of their past, doesn't want to work with him, and doesn't want to be part of making him money. It's sad and an example of the factionalism which is helping to marginalize boxing.
