I doubt that very much. Those three have more pull and more cash then Oscar. Oscar has lost touch and making statements now that he will end the cold war. What cold war? The freeze was never about him. That is to much blow thinking it is. He's got a Tony Montana complex. He has no fighters and showtime is in Floyds pocket along with all the new gen fighters and the 18 to 30 year old buying public. Oscar is now crawling to Arum because he has to not out of some idea of moral obligation.
You seriously think Mayweather is gonna start paying fighters out of his own pocket? He might not have a problem taking care of the Mickey Bay, Badou Jack type purses. But not the fighters with 6, 7 figure purses.

I don't think he will have to pay fighters out of his own pocket. He will use other peoples money and lines of credit just like Arum and any other promoter throughout history. After he leaves and Manny maybe boxing will come back to some sense of reality.

Btw I hope this whole gig flops for all and we see the end of ppv's and ridiculous pay scales. I hope boxing is forced to rebuild itself. I've always been a fan of quality over quantity.
