If HBO is forced to chose they probably will go with GBP. Because, Top Rank is a promoter who can do there own shows without HBO money. Something that Golden boy can't do. And, because Ross Greenburg is in bed with GBP and Al Haymon.

and **** the people that think manny fights should be boycotted because he is not fighting floyd, floyd and his family tried to tarnish pac's name based on 100% opinion, which started with a crack dealer that can barely speak english. floyd is just as likely on roids as manny. and people lets not forget that manny has agreed to take a blood test right after the fight. if that test turned up positive for roids his whole career boxing and political would be tarnished, not to mention his status in his home country. the guy is clean.

Don't believe that Pac the bigger hit on this media mess
If blood testing is institutionalized in international/professional boxing, no doubt Pacquiao will adhere to that. Pac and his team always indicated, whatever is required by the boxing commission or boxing authorities, they will abide. One could argue that boxing is behind as far as doping tests are concerned, i tend to agree with that. However, there should be a centralized body that should oversee the consistency and quality of testing and it should be properly vetted out by experts in sports medicine e.g. whether its a combination of urine and blood thats best for professional boxing. I don't like the knee jerk type that Mayweather is asking just because he has suddenly connected with his inner olympic spirit self.
Definitely, Pacquiao will not adhere to giving in to a Group which is "not a paragon of virtues" - Mayweather Camp that continues to hug the limelight - for all the wrong reasons (run-ins with the law, tax problems, etc) and GBP which has a history of fighters ducking blood tests (and now trying to act like angels . . oh yeah, more like angels of dis-information and dirty tactics). In fairness, Arum and Camp Pacquiao have their own negative points as well, however, what we want to point out e.g. whoever has not sinned/erred, let him cast the first stone? (so although, the idea of asking blood test sounds chivalrous . . but, if you do it at the same time, insinuate by going to various media outlets to claim that Pac is into something . . that smacks pure hypocrisy! which is un-acceptable . . and thats probably why Pacquiao strengthened his position not to give in to these two timers)
Its unfortunate we always get excuses from those of the opposite side - - (a) Pacquiao is fighting washed up fighters . . next (b) Pacquiao the catch weight king . . . when, these two wouldn't fly, even if these people shouted to the ends of the earth . . they, instantly rode on the (c) Pac must be on the roids. WOW, from dismissing Pacquiao's performance as so-so . . to saying, "his hitting guys with a strength of a mule" . . same excuse, Delahoya was making "i thought pacquiao was fast, but he did'nt hit strong . . to suddenly, changing the music to claim that Pac hits like Mosley".
So guys, the majority of the boxing fans and mainstream people will not buy in to your crap (check the various websites and its overwhelming to Pac's favor between 70%-90%). Lets see how the PPV of Mayweather stacks up moving forward (i.e. the only reason people watch him vs the bulk-slow moving Marquez, was a possible preview against Pac) . . bet Mayweather's future numbers will not come close to Pac Monster, thats for sure!
