It's not the fight contract. That was signed and posted by Mayweather.

The contract is the Venue Contract.

I think the whole thing is a promotion scam itself. The contract not being signed smells of creating greater demand for the over-inflated non-existent tickets. MGM wouldn't have published the fight announcement without an agreement in place. The fact that there wasn't any real grumblings going on gives us a clue that the conflict is staged.

Notice with all the moneys being made with this fight, nothing has been said about the venue bid. Remember the middle east put up $110 million to get the venue. My guess is that the MGM would have had to at least matched that. So who is getting it and how is it being divided. Is it that Pacquiao is being kept in the dark by secret Mayweather and Arum agreement? Or is this something they are not mentioning to hide it from the Government? There are moneys involved in this fight that is not being mentioned to the public. No talks were ever mentioned about moving the venue because it was one of the very early issues easily addressed.
