    I don't think this is a big question at all. I think if there is somebody that rivals Floyds Vegas connection, that would be Pacman. Pac is good friends with Politicians in Nevada, California and DC.

    IMO it is Flomos who would need to worry because it doesn't matter to Al Haymon anymore if Floyd stays undefeated in his last fight. Haymon can't make money from a retired Floyd, why do you guys think this fight with Pac finally happen?

    Cashcow getting cashout. Just like Oscar vs Pacman, feed the cow to the wolf. Holyfield spoke about it, he said don't tell people about your retirement plan because it's in your last few fights you find out how many friends and enemies you truly have.

    Remember when Floyd said he would never do business with Bob Arum and that is why the Pacman fight wouldn't happen? Too bad for him Al Haymon doesn't mind doing business with Bob Arum
    Sir, you could piss me off, if I let you.

    You need a decision to win.

    Floyd is the man in Vegas. Fact, as Fenster would say.

    Floyd is going to be doing business with Haymon long after he retires. Man, think!!

    Hell man, Floyd is cashing himself out. Shiiiiiiiiit! Think man!

    People change their minds everyday, that's one of those beautiful and exasperating things about humans.

    This actually is going to be an interesting subplot. Conspiracy theories have been going around (Holyfield mentioning it as well) that the cards may go against Floyd to create a lucrative rematch. It's boxing...it's Vegas...so anything is possible. The interesting point Holyfield makes is that the powers to be don't like the notion of a guy going undefeated and then hanging it up. They want the cash cow to keep fighting and generating money as long as possible. It's a super shady world of high stakes gambling with huge amounts of money involved. Nothing shocks me when it comes to the business of boxing.

    Like you say anything can happen in boxing, but I can't see it happening, not in this fight.
    Everyone is going to be watching and scoring this fight!
