They've been having their secret Negotiations and what not, but There are some pretty distinctive CLUES if you ask me...
---------------------------------------------------------
1) Dan Rafael in his chat:
Mr. Stone (Elk Grove, CA)
I would assume since we have not heard a lot of talk about Pacquiao-Mayweather, that is a good thing. Have you heard any updated info about that potential fight?
Dan Rafael (12:07 PM)
I am not at liberty to say.
Dan Rafael may not be well liked here, but he is a passionate dude. I think if he heard negotiations were going sour, we'd have read a blog or ten about it. Not this casual response, like he is saving something to surprise us with.
---------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------
2) Freddie Roach has already come up with the Game-plan. IF you read the press clippings from this site and others, Roach is talking to the press like he is already trying to hype the fight up.
And he is now starting to make a gameplan for Mayweather, despite the fact that they were in serious negotiations about 6 months ago and he didn't do it then.
---------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------
3) When Pacquiaos friends started talking about negotiations, Arum was fuming mad. Probably cause he didn't want them spoiling something so close to being completed.
If the Negotiations were almost dead, You'd think that Arum would care less what people were saying.
---------------------------------------------------------

Any other Clues?
IMO, i think we are 3 weeks or less away from some kind of major announcement. Thoughts?
Good. The Pacquiao hype balloon is finally gonna get popped in front of the whole world. This is what happens when a media hype creation gets in the ring against a true ATG like Floyd. It's Holmes-Cooney all over again.
Thing is buddy you live in a childs mind all piss and wind and bravado , Floyds is a world class athlete I understand why he wants Pac tested , I look past the idol shit that you run on and look into the real world of F1 competition .
co-sign he has skills but he's scared to fight Pacquiao. He keeps on putting up roadblocks for the negotiation to succeed.
Floyd has always wanted this fight. He said the only thing that would bring him out of retirement was a huge money fight. Manny was the target and everyone knows. He announced his come back on the night of a manny fight, fighting the man that beat manny. It was his whole mission to get Manny in that ring. And the whole blood testing issue has NOTHING to do with the commission. The commission can still do their jobs NO ONE is saying they cant. But what floyd puts in his contract has nothing to do with the commission, Manny either agrees or dissagrees. If you know anything about business and contracts you wouldnt say crazy things. Just like Manny wanted 10 million for every pound over. It sounds ridiculous but if thats what he wanted it the contract then so be it. Floyd didnt have to agree but he did.
Lets just hope this fight happens..I'm ready for floyd to silence the world again.
maybe ur ready but ur girl FMJ aint
Im positive and would bet my house on it ( yes I own one ) Pac is the very reason Floyd came back , Pac was taking his smoke and Floyd didnt like it , he came back for Pac buddy you better believe it .
If he wants Pac so bad then why the OST and now the 60/40 purse?? I hope ur girl will mellow down and make this fight happen
are you sure about that?.........demanding special rules other than the commision rules is a sign of not wanting to fight in a perfect boxing world...........lol

1. Dan Rafael didn't say anything because he doesn't know a damn thing. He gets all of his information from BoxingScene and other websites. Since they have not given any information, he has no clue what is going on. He just didn't want to say, 'I have no ****ing clue'.
you are retarded. dan rafael talks personally to pretty much every big name in the business. he interviews fighters and promoters all of the time. he talks of his interviews or phone convos with lennox lewis, gary shaw, richard schaffer just to name a few... in his semi recent blogs. if you went back about 3 or 4 years youd be able to compile a giant list of names that he made personal contact with. he even spent an entire day with don king (cool blog BTW).
if anyone has no ****ing clue here, its you hombre.

I think it will happen because Manny wants the fight now when he didnt before , Floyd has always wanted it , its the very reason he came back , Floyd wont walk away from the fight thats a given he wont budge on the testing and he agreed once to 50/50 so that kinda means he wont get much more out of holding out but he will get more , its entirely up to Pac at this point , they will haggle over 0-14 days and 50/50 to 60/40 , neither is a reason to walk out because both partys have kind of set the goal posts in stone at this point they just need to settle on middle ground where both are happy , fight will happen .
I'm sure they will want to build this fight up more than any other fight in the past.
That includes but is not limited to total secrecy while nagotiations are going on.
We KNOW negotiations are going on.... This fight is going to happen.
It should be announced by the end of June. As a matter of fact anyone can PM me for a bet that the fight will be announced before July 1st.
I'll take 4th July.

Its true in a way though, if you don't here much about negoatitions it tends to mean there doing well, the only time you really here much about negotiations is when they aren't going so well.
I mean I am not gonna get my hopes up cause anything could happen, but I do think that the less we hear about the negotiations the closer the fight is to being signed.

2. Freddie Roach claimed to have a game plan completed to beat Mayweather while they were training for the Clottey fight. You should know better than believe anything coming from Freddie Roach.
3. Arum told Pac's friends to STFU because they don't have a clue what is going on and have no business making comments to the press when they have no clue what they are talking about. They do not have permission to speak on his behalf and will only hurt the chances of the fight being made by running their mouths.
I agree with you that the fight will be made, but I wouldn't based that opinion on these examples.
