De La Hoya : "Pacquiao versus Mayweather a lot sooner than people think"
Thursday, January 28, 2010

While Filipino Manny Pacquiao is preparing for his bout against Joshua Clottey at Cowboys Stadium in Texas on March 13, Oscar De La Hoya, head of Golden Boy Promotions, is busy lining up a fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and. Sugar Shane Mosley for sometime in May.

That said, as far as De La Hoya is concerned, those are simply the fights before the real fight that fans have been waiting for.

"That fight has to happen," De La Hoya said Tuesday of the proposed bout which fell apart earlier this month in a drug-testing dispute. "It's too big not to happen. We just have to cross one hurdle."

De La Hoya is adamant that it will be taking place “and a lot sooner than people think”.

it will probably happen in the near distant future...if it dosnt people will forever ask why manny didnt do this and why floyd didnt do that and mainly why did they not fight each other of a split of $50 Million Dollars for a fight

It will happen sometime in September October I would think. Just shut up and get this thing finished.

Not sooner but later Manny has a campaign to run late march and an election to win in May 10. And Mayweather to win in May 1. Leaving both fighters exhausted IMO pushing the fight around September and as far as December for all the Bickering and B.S. to early 2011.

September to December seems logical. Hopefully May beats Mosley, and Pac loses his election. I think all the politics will just get in the way if he wins.

edit: forgot about Clottey, but I'm sure Manny will beat him.
