    This arab promoter would have to put up too much guarantee to each fighter to put on the promotion in Dubi. Floyd would want a $100 million guarantee with a PPV percentage and pacquiao $50 million with a PPV percentage to agree. It's not going to happen! The guarantee for a promotion in the US would be something like $50 million and $25 million with ppv percentages. The only thing up in the air would be overseas ppv's. It's just too much money to guarantee so don't ever figure this fight is going to happen with the ego's these two have. They can't even call each other just to say "Congrats on your win. good fight man! I hope we can make something happen in the future" Why? because they live on different planets and have stupid people around them saying oh that's not a good idea.

    Floyd can't promote himself because his promotional company is only a front with no real fucntioning license. Not to say they he could'nt do it. Don't be fooled into thinking GBP wasn't getting a big slice of the pie. Floyd just doesn't want the fans to know it. He may not have any contractural obligations with GBP but he has never flown solo.

    Can Pac promote himself
    If GBP was getting this huge slice of Floyd's money how did YOU find out about it?......mexican.
    Share with us your vast inside knowledge of Floyd's finances with the rest of us...stop holding out.

    Your cross-dressin Vato Oscar didn't start promoting full time until he retired.

    @cyclone why do you take criticism of Floyd so personally?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    It's not criticism at all....it's more like wishful thinking.

    There you go again, taking it emotionally personal.

    Eh. Honestly, wouldn't lose sleep if it doesn't. These two let a prime defining moment pass them by when it would speak to legacy. Now it'll just be an asterisk.

    Dubai ffs. I get the money aspect and all but Arum needs to get off this kick. Mayweather v Manny aired on same day tape HBO also suppose
