He had the media with his testing demands. For a second there I thought he really had the media and the causal fans tricked about Manny. Making it look like he was on roids or afraid to fight. Now it's backwards. May has his back against the wall. A lot of his legacy might ride on the next 24 hours.

Very true...I always been a fan of Mayweather and Pacman.. But he even had me tricked thinking Pac was scared... I'm coming back down to reality now and seeing who the real coward is... he don't sign this contract, even though I been a fan of him for years, fukk it..He's a straight bitch!!
What is underhanded about saying, "the representatives for both parties have agreed, now its up to Floyd to sign."?
Arum isn't even talking about terms.
These are not even negotiations, so all this talk about gag orders for the negotiations at this point, the point of waiting for someone to sign,
is pointless,
as there are no more negotiations taking place.
The only person killing this fight, is the person who has gone virtually his entire career without all of these extra testing demands.
Its funny how not a single person on this site, or any other, gives a shit about OSTs in any other fights.
Only for this one.
Because an entire lot of you don't want to see Floyd get his ass handed to him by a supposedly inferior fighter.By "either side dictating terms", I mean they're making demands. An ultimatum is a final demand. If you look at the big picture, it's still part of the negotiation, even if you don't want to define it that way.
And you have to stop making assumptions about what some of us want. I'd be happy to see Mayweather get "his ass handed to him" by Pacquiao, if Pac can pull it off.
Well it was always gonna happen. Especially since Arum dropped his "gag order" and started getting aggressive.
The negotiations are over .
We heard nothing about any of the stipulations during the negotiating process.
So he obliged by that order and both representatives agreed that everything was fair, and now they forwarded that to Floyd to sign.
The negotiations are over and Bob Arum has every right to say whatever he wants now.
Thats my point.... The homosexual may sell more due to his flamboyant train wreck life outside the ring, but Pac is certainly recognized as a greater fighter inside the ring....
And as history already shown, the flaming homo will be broke within a few years after boxing,,,,so he will not have money nor respect...
floyd mayweather is more accomplished than manny pacquio. he sells more because more people want to see him fight than want to see manny plain and simple. Frankly, I don't know why it bothers you so much. I doubt he will be broke.
The boxing lifers tend to favor manny over floyd because they don't like the way he carriess himself outside the ring. Thatt is their choice. But the almost always pick him to win handily.
We should be able to separate how we feel about an individual from an honest assessment of their talent or skill.
Why did Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer go multi-platinum????
Oh yeah, cuz selling means they are the greatest at what they do...
But being the "best and "selling the most" are different. But you can't buy food with respect, only cash or credit.
It's too late for excuses.
There has been no "denial" or "acceptance" by the Mayweather camp.
If the reports were "not" true about the proposal being agreed upon by top rank and GBP and all it needs is Mayweather's signature, then for sure Ellerbe would have at least came out and denied it. Just like last time. But nope, he didn't. Which means that it must be true.
And this excuse about Oh, there is a gag order and that both camp will negotiate through closed doors. They did negotiate through closed doors because we don't have the "full" details of the proposal. Most of the talks have been, that it has been agreed and Mayweather needs to sign. Delahoya coming out and saying that it's looking positive. That's all. Does anyone know the "full" details of the negotiations? No you don't.
So again I will repeat.
IT'S TOO LATE FOR ANY EXCUSES FROM THE MAYWEATHER CAMP.
If Mayweather had any objections with the proposal, then they would have said something by now.
The only move Floyd can make now is "to sign."
If not, then get your big umbrella ready because there will be a storm coming.

yup, the clock has made it worse for floyd, the casual fans are starting to realise the demands were nothing more than a way for him to duck the pacman
Yeah, 3 months and the night before the weigh-in are the same damn thing; and Cotto said he can make 145 and he did - the problem was the belt.
Point is when manny was the main draw or top dog he acted like it. Now floyd is treating him the same way he treated them. Manny may be more accomplished than Hatton or Cotto, but he still the opponent. Don't ask floyd to treat manny any better than he treats his opponents!
Didn't manny do this to hatton and cotto?

Golden Boy, Schaefer, and Pretty Boy (how can your name be "Money" if you turn down an "easy" $40 mil) tried to use the media and illegal PED shit to pressure Pacquiao to sign the initial contract. They were trying to bully their way through negotiations.
Floyd doesn't care about fair play, he butt f#cked Marquez in negotiations; and I'm still waiting for Schaefer aka Anti-Doping advocate to put his bark into practice.
Didn't manny do this to hatton and cotto?
What media? ESPN? Lol, unless GBP or Team Mayweather comes out acknowledge any contract then it's all BS coming from Arum....
How anyone can take you seriously is beyond me, you're 31 and you don't even know what a contract and a proposal is.

Quick question. Bob did the same "blame floyd" thing in January. Despite that 1.4 mil people purchased the floyd fight. Why did so many people purchase a fight when the main draw was a "chicken"? In comparison, why did so (relatively) few purchase the fight that had the p4p#1 fotd, foty, and atg with crowd pleasing style?
Nobody really knows whats gone off or been agreed too, so its unfair to point the finger at anybody, people will take any little thing and run with it just because its going to benefit there favorite fighter, its getting pathetic.
These are the reasons I don't come on here to post as much, I just have a little look because both sides have too many biased fans that are full of shit.
if i suspect you of molesting children without any evidence or charge whatsoever,
should you jump through hoops?
if the cops say there is no need for an investigation or charge or courtdate (extra steroid testing never been done before in the history of prizefighting),
should you still go to court to prove yourself innocent because im convinced you molest children?
Sadly what our country is turning into is GUILTY UPON PROVEN SO.
Some people are so ingrate that not really understanding how it works in the real world. Akin to someone accusing the President of foul things such as rape for example.
Without "proofs", there won't even be a Preliminary Court hearing - let alone the actual and formal accusation with the due process of law.
Now this "TAKE THE TEST FIRST" without proven grounds is simply weightless, juvenile and a show of disregards to conformity of rules of engagement.
It shows further the "maturity" of the accuser (or lack thereof). And bringing it towards sensationalism as their maint reason "not to fight" is the ultimate slap towards one's intellect.
No, he didn't. It's dumb to think that someone would attempt to tarnish another man's legacy. Pacquiao did all that to himself, and in my opinion he deserves the backlash.
What needed to happen was
1. Pacquiao accepts to take the full.
2. His team shuts the fuck up about it.
Neither happened. And again, how do you know whats on the contract?
link me to where it says Pac agreed up to the fight please...thanks in advance...although i know you dont have that link for that made up shit lol
