Yuck, really hope neither of those happen. Floyd would be completely wasting the year if he takes that route, from a fans point of view at least. I don't get where Arum would come in for another Floyd Marquez fight, the promotion for their first was surely GBP and Mayweather not a top rank card right?

As far as wanting to put Manny in with Mayweather now, that is typical. Arum must want to cash out while the fight would still at all, I'd guess Pacquiao wouldn't be able to demand even half of what he could have just a year ago.
It'dlook good on Floy'd resume though. He couldn't be accused of ducking Manny (Ok, still can be accused of ducking prime Manny) and he could still fight Canelo on Cinco 2014 weekend, by which time the Canelo fight would be mega money too.
