In a very recent interview with Spanish broadcast network Univision, Oscar De la Hoya, president of Golden Boy Promotions had the following to say regarding the negotiations for the heavily awaited clash between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr.

"Up until now, it's been a very difficult negotiation process for various reasons but right now we're very close."

"We're very close in finalizing the contracts that were once very complicated. The two fighters now realize that this fight must be made. It has to be made because the boxing fans want to see it happen and right now it's the biggest fight that can be made in the world."

"It's going to be a big, BIG fight!"

"I think right now we are very, very close in finalizing the contracts. I can't talk right now in detail about the negotiations but I will say that we are very close."

Fight Hype.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Just because they write up the contracts doesn't mean Mayweather is gonna sign.

I hope the fight comes through, but the Mayweather camp saying stuff like "My son will never fight Pacquiao" and "Absolutely not, I will not fight again this year. I'll take a 2 year retirement from boxing.", it makes me doubtful.

If the fight DOES happen, it shatters all records.

Pacquiao is still in the United States. What might be holding him up? Hmmmm. Questions questions questions.

[Phil Ivey]

Good that they're doing it behind closed doors. The first time around, the media was updating on the negotiations everyday.

Yeah. Especially with Arum and Roach

[Tamis!]

Good stuff!

I'll just have to wait till they step in the ring knowing both camp's antics.
