"Manny Pacquiao walks away from 50 million dollars based on principle"

[Glamour Puss]

Will be a huge part of the 24/7 narrative.
You people don't really believe this **** about the fight being off do you?

Wake up folks, its called PR.
This fight is happening, maybe not in March because there's not enough time, but its happening in 2010.

Don't believe the hype. The promoters and HBO are just playing tricks on you.

nothing new here

floyd already turned down MILLIONS OF DOLLARS just to duck cotto, mosley, margarito, and now pac. He also turned down a rematch with Oscar.

Matthew Hatton all the way for floyd or that sissy paulie

[pac oww]

will there be two 24/7's since mayweather and pac are fighting close to eachother? how will this work?

[Glamour Puss]

Nobody has ever walked away from 50 million on principle.

That **** only happens in the movies. In real life, people always go for the money.

The fight is not off.

You are being played.

...I think Paulie would be an interesting fight...he's slick and he's got heart...Paulie, not Mayweather...

I don't believe ANYTHING Arum says

[sNiTcH]

His principle is very simple.

Boxing has a committee, he just need to follow the committee. period.

[THE REED]

I do not whatsoever believe this is a PR stunt.

That doesn't mean I don't think the fight won't happen, but I do not in any way shape or form.. think this is a "stunt".

Arum hates Floyd, theres no and ifs or buts or maybes about that... and why would Pacqiuao want steroid allegations pointed at him for PR? Talk about the WRONG kind of attention... there's no way in hell Pac or ARUM, want to be looked at like steroid users for the sake of "PR".

[Kball15]

this is NOT PR. There are much better ways of doing this. Having a fight cancelled and having both fighters reputations damaged is not the way you go about promoting a fight.

Wake up. the fight is off

I don't think the steroid allegations are a PR stunt. I think all the stuff about the fight being off, then on, the off again is a stunt to keep the boxing public anxious and excited about the fight.

I think the steroid stuff was cooked up in some HBO meeting between Haymon, the Mayweathers and HBO though.
