If PBF was so serious with his offer...

[-MAKAVELLI-]

So this is another excuse as to why the fight hasn't been made yet?

well, you DO need a signature from each fighter

Arums own words are giving the "Pac is ducking" talk power, not Floyd.

Saying his actions may be perceived as being a duck (what Arum said) and calling him a duck (what Floyd Stans are saying) are completely different.

Like I said, Did you guys really expect this to fall into place this week?!?

someone needs a friggin lesson in business. Floyd has already agree to all terms, signing is just a formality at this point (from his side) and there is no real reason to sign if the other guy hasn't even displayed any interest to make it happen yet. Like I said Floyd has agreed to terms, Manny has yet to do so...we'll get the word on Monday, hopefully it will be good news so we don't have 50 more threads like these

Tell that to the 100 "Pac is ducking Floyd" threads. I'm merely pointing out that negotiations this large take time and well...negotiating. Nobody here knows what the terms that Floyd agreed to are (60/40 his favor, pillow gloves, one hand tied behind Pac's back, etc) so people claiming Pac is a duck because he hasn't signed the papers yet is just plain idiotic.

By not signing the contract he is not limiting himself to the terms on that contract. He is able to renegotiate at a later time. Not BLAMING floyd (why so sensitive) just stating that negotiations are far from over so the hating on both sides can chill.

[PinoyZoi]

Manny has a history of being childish in contracts and doesnt honour his word.

Sorry but when did we recall Pacquiao going over the limit of the Weighting??
Mayweather is the one who breaks contracts just as Marquez.

how many times has Manny agreed to conditions only to turn up and deny ever seeing the contract.

How many times does Manny conviniently disappear and not even answer calls when the contract is due.You remember Oscar and Hatton had to give the guy an ultimatum.

You know how long it takes to get things done with Manny,months.Doesnt he know what he wants from the beginning?The guy has no intergrity whatsoever and is base and classless when it comes to negotiation.He acts like a rural girl

[Steve Harvey]

Ricky Hatton didnt sign the deal until Manny had signed it.
