I read floyd has sent an offer to pacmans team and pacs team have made a counter offer. If this is the case the fights not going to happen pacman should just take whatever is on offer and if he is as good as he things beat floyd, then rematch and he can make the demands. Pacman and his team know they can't beat floyd IMO and just want the payday.

Just so you know I am only going by what the ruling family of Dubai said in an interview on 60 minutes here in the US. They said they could not depend on the oil revenues so they wanted to turn it into a financial capital. If they were for some reason lying that's on them. I was merely going by what they said directly, I did no further investigation on Dubais oil output. @fan johnny actually, Dubai itself has very little oil. Oil revenue makes up only three percent of its GDP. If you look around you can find many reports on the state of oil in Dubai proper. Mind you, I'm not looking to debate you, as I said my info was based only on what the ruling family said and another report in the Economist magazine. As far as how the UAE divides up its wealth I know nothing about but much info is out there on Dubais oil concern. I will look further into it though.

Yea your right, they don't depend on Oil and I don't think ever have. I only commented because of the misconception they are running out of oil. A big chunk of what they earn is from tourism. It's one of the free countries in the region. The familes in the region compete with all kinds of shit in thier cultures. like friends showing off thier new car.
Well Dubai proper is running out of oil but you are right that the UAE on whole is not. Dubai sounds like an interesting place. Have you read how they treat foreign workers in Dubai. Anyway, is this where the rumours are coming from, that the fight might happen in Dubai.
It's now listed on boxrec for MGM this fights going to happen whoop whoop
As I said.
Under NO circumstances will Floyd ever fight him.
It's ALWAYS the same...
Either PAc is completely ignored and all mention of him the subject is changed.
OR
1/ Serious talks..
2/ Fight is agreed too.
3/ Floyd team goes to the drawing board thinking of a way to pull out and save face for Floyd.
4/ Plan is hatched, Floyd chickens out and even though 100% of the blame lies on Floyd, some of the blame is shifted over to Pac, who has no idea about any of it.
Pac's attitude is and has always been "Let's get it on!"
"Enough with the games mate! Your messing with the Grand Master!"

At some point Floyd's gonna have to decide what's more important to him: His "0", or the public perception of him. I'm no hardcore fan of either, but like to see them both ply their craft in the ring. I think there's room to praise either without denigrating the other. But Floyd's public perception is bound to start taking a hit if he doesn't say fuck it I'm fighting Pacquiao. People can talk about who's ducking who, but the truth of the matter is Floyd is getting the worse of it in the "ducking" conversations, and he's not doing anything to counteract that perception. We've all gotten tired of waiting for this fight to get made, but if we're being honest, we'd all watch it in a heartbeat if and when it ever does happen. If and when it happens, it'll be somewhat of a grudge match, considering how much ducking talk has preceded it.
Personally, I think Floyd has enough weapons in his arsenal to keep Manny off of him, and outbox him for 12 rounds. But anything's possible in boxing, and Floyd is probably mortified at the even slight possibility he could lose his precious "0" to Pac. If the fight never happens, I believe it will hurt Floyd's legacy more than Pac's. Pac has fought and lost. He's really got nothing to lose if he were to lose a good fight to Floyd. I believe he's more than willing to fight Floyd, also. It's Floyd that needs to step up to the plate. All these shenanigans have worn thin a long time ago. I'm sure Floyd watches his share of ESPN, as does nearly every red-blooded, young American male. Maybe if ESPN were to start airing some commentaries that were critical of Floyd and his seeming unwillingness to make the fight...... just maybe it might help prod Floyd into making it. On the other hand..... Floyd likes to dance to his own tune. He certainly doesn't need the money.
all this only proves that floyd is a scared chickenshit, and sooooo not worthy to be called a true champion. protecting your "O" dont mean shit if u avoid the biggest challenges. to put Floyd in the same sentence as Ali, Ray Leonard, Joe Lewis as an All time Great is truly laughable. the man is a disgrace to the sport and a major let down to the fans.
