Fight is not dead! Both sides are still hoping to find a compromise to get this fight saved. Despite the current lawsuit.
"Schaefer did say that he remains hopeful that despite the suit and despite the vitriol between the sides that a deal can be salvaged and the fight still be held as planned. He said he has turned negotiations on Mayweather’s side over to Bruce Binkow, Golden Boy’s chief marketing officer. Top Rank president Todd duBoef is negotiating with Binkow on behalf of Pacquiao.
“I want to exhaust any and all possibilities to get the fight done. Everything I have is going into finding a way to make this fight and getting a compromise that is acceptable to all parties.”
Richard Schaefer, chief executive officer of Golden Boy Promotions
“I still hope that somehow a compromise can be found and that this fight can be saved,” Schaefer said. “I fully realize that this fight not happening is not only a big blow for the fight but it has much bigger, much more serious ramifications. I don’t even want to think about what’s next for Floyd, what this, what that.
“I want to exhaust any and all possibilities to get the fight done. Everything I have is going into finding a way to make this fight and getting a compromise that is acceptable to all parties.”
But Arum said he’s still agreeable to a Mayweather-Pacquiao fight if Mayweather’s side will agree to all the testing be administered by the Nevada commission.
“All they have to do is to agree that the testing and everything else in this fight is under the jurisdiction of the Nevada State Athletic Commission and we will have a deal,” Arum said. “Kizer is the regulator in charge of this fight and Manny would comply with any request he made, as he always has.”

Im sure the HBO dummies like Merchant and Kellerman was talking that smack, As for Holyfield and Jones i'm really not concerned about what people think of them, they are a dime a dozen when it comes to African American fighters, but sadly for the Pacturds Rioduiao is all they've got :rofl: .
If that is all they got what makes you think that they care about what anybody else thinks of Pac? They will not think any less of him... So the legacy will not really suffer...
And, lets be real... I don't where you from. I am going to assume you are from the U.S. Boxing is not that big here. Boxing is not on the level of baseball. So when the steroid allegation hit baseball. It was a big deal cuz the mainstream media everyday. When baseball season is on. You see ESPN talking about it every single day. They do not give that kind of attention to boxing. Yes they are giving attention right now. But, in a year they will forget all about it. Because, to them boxing is a niche sport. So if this type of allegations did not hurt Holy or Roy then it would not hurt Pac at the end. Especially if he never test positive.
And, no HBO commentator compared Pac to SRR. They did say what he is doing is comparable to what Henry Armstrong did.
Well those "experts" who were swinging from Pac's balls were even trying to compare him to SRR!! :rofl: but with this whole roids revalation i think that kind of silly talk will be a thing of the past now, no doubt people will still praise what he's done, but this whole mess has left a stain on Manny that he simply won't be able to get rid of.
the stain on pac's career is why the lawsuit should happen whether the fight comes through or not.
and it's PED slander/libel not "roid revelation"
Exactly I agree just like the whole mess left a stain in Holyfield and Roy Jones career. They will never be able to get rid of it. I mean Pac will suffer the same faith.
And, what expert compared Pac to SRR? Link please or a name or something....

They hand of to neutral people to salvage negotiation without emotion , is way of professional business man push hard to make deal , is plain to see Team Mayweather try every road to make deal , if no want fight why Floyd keep try , Manny is said leave many time already not Floyd , where you look for your focus because you look wrong place , when brain fill hate you see only hate .
wow, i didn't understand anything that you said!

the fight will sell, but not as good as it would've without the libel and slander.
if pac's reputation and legacy is ruined then what does floyd really have to gain in beating pac?
To be honest i actually think it adds drama to the whole thing, can you imagine the first press conference and stare off? that shit is gonna be tense as hell :rofl: , in terms of promotion for the fight this is gold dust imo.
You right Pac legacy is so ruined. I mean he is not even consider ATG anymore. His legacy going to be ruined like Holyfield. I mean look how they rank Holy... top 10 all time HW. Arguably the greatest CW of all time. Easily in the top 3... Damn near every expert ranks him in the top 50 all time great. People consider him a warrior... Yea his legacy was shot. Pac will suffer the same faith...

I think the buzz for the fight will be bigger if they do a last minute sign.
excuses aside. Die hard haters are gonna make excuses regardless so don't worry about excuses.
That is exactly and it goes for both sides. I really don't care about what negative shit you got to say about Pac. Just like Floyd fans should not care what I say about Floyd.... So I am not trippin about excuses. That shit is always going to be there. You can honeslty make an excuse for every single fight that has ever happen.
Erm no THE FIGHT WILL SELL, the only thing that's "ruined" is Roiduiao reputation and legacy!! :rofl: , i know you pacturds are mad but like that famous old Tupac line.. "THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS" :lol1: .
the fight will sell, but not as good as it would've without the libel and slander.
if pac's reputation and legacy is ruined then what does floyd really have to gain in beating pac?
nah man, the fight is ruined. if pac and floyd fight, it will still be big, but it won't be as big as before the PED allegations.
I think the buzz for the fight will be bigger if they do a last minute sign. As is no doubt, the aim.
excuses aside. Die hard haters are gonna make excuses regardless so don't worry about excuses.
I thought if Roiduiao wins he'll have to answer to his pacturds? or is he just gonna get on with boxing? anyway regardless of that the fight's buzz will be gone by september like i said.
He still going to fight on. The buzz will not be off if both Pac and Floyd look good in there next fight. And, then again you can do a World tour for a fight in September. The whole World wants to see this. But, they were not able to do a World tour for March. You can do more press tours, more interviews, tv shows, it will have more time to promote the fight. That if some buzz does get lost. They can get it all back with that...
First of all fuck what flomo's think... don't worry about what they **** they say.
The whole he is on some untraceable shit was always to come from them. Even if Pac took all this test and fought and beat Floyd in March. Those Mofo's would of said that excuse. So fuck them they will have there belief. But, don't for one second think that this fight is ruined cuz of what dumb ass flomo's say.
If Pac fights wins his next fight. And, Floyd wins his next fight. The fight will still be as big. It have bad blood now. They would have more time to promote it. They can even to a World tour. And, that is something they couldn't do for March. Promoted right the fight could be as big or even bigger than what it is now. But, both have to look great in there next fight.
And, again don't worry about WTF the flomos say. They don't run shit. There is no way this fight gets ruined. Over some dumb shit that people say around here.
nah man, the fight is ruined. if pac and floyd fight, it will still be big, but it won't be as big as before the PED allegations.
Erm no THE FIGHT WILL SELL, the only thing that's "ruined" is Roiduiao reputation and legacy!! :rofl: , i know you pacturds are mad but like that famous old Tupac line.. "THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS" :lol1: .

nah... arum handed it off because he knew floyd jr didn't really want the fight. arum knew they were just bullshitting.
schaefer handed it off because arum left the negotiation table. schaefer is trying to save face and since the lawsuit includes schaefer, he wants to distance himself from the negotiations.
pac can leave because he doesn't owe the IRS millions of dollars like floyd. floyd needs pac, not the other way around.
the fight is ruined.
if pac wins flomos will say "so what, pac is using PEDs."
if pac loses flomos will say "see, pac didn't have his PEDs."
instead of talking about a great fight all that will be discussed is whether pac is using PEDs or not. Flomos and Team Mayweather have ruined a great fight. thanks jerks.
and don't tell me the blood test will settle it for you assholes. flomos will say "Pac is on some untraceable shit."
the fight is ruined. RUINED!

this fight ain't happening.
schaefer and arum aren't even negotiating anymore. the fact that they've handed it off to other people means the talks aren't going anywhere.
floyd was looking for a way out of the fight from the jump.

Why wouldn't it happen in September even if he wins his election?
I thought if Roiduiao wins he'll have to answer to his pacturds? or is he just gonna get on with boxing? anyway regardless of that the fight's buzz will be gone by september like i said.
