Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather-Pacquiao Talks Reaching a Deadline

[Da Hammer]

well if this fight doesn't happen, Pac should concentrate on being a congressman full time because he has nothing left to prove in the sport and Floyd could try fighting Martinez, i don't think he would beat him but it certainly would be quite the impressive win although now that martinez has stuck with the 160 title, its not very likely that the fight is made. Only other fight for him would be Williams...

Ok well Bob Arum just said they're going to "extend" the deadline. What a joke.

[The Big Dunn]

Didn't both side agree to not negotiate in the media? Every week it seems Bob is in the media giving quotes. Shut the **** up!

Ok ladies..

Article and video linked. He could have kept quiet.. but.. he coulda shoulda..woulda

On December 08,2009 HBO's sport series "Joe Buck Live" featured the Former pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr. to guest on the Live Show panel....

When the self pro-claimed G.O.A.T fighter was asked on a not yet signed contract fight with current pound-for-pound king Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao he stated calmly," I think he is a good fighter but I have been around the sport a long time and been dominating the sport of boxing for 15 yrs. now."


Without hesitation Floyd was quickly interrupted by fellow guest New York Giant Super Bowl Champion and FOX NFL SUNDAY co-host Michael Strahan "Translation ! The hell with Pacquiao I will whoop his ass!"


The once leisure Floyd was awaken by the crowd's reaction of Strahan break silence translation, seized his moment by coloring his past statement with a more obscure tone "The thing is I don't want the fans to be really shocked by what will happen. When we do meet up because its not going to be nothing new, he (Pacquiao) has been knockout before;he lost before."

Do you really believe floyd is giving up money to not fight Manny pacquio?

Castillo, Corrales, Hernandez, Gatti, Mitchell, Judah, ODLH, JMM, Hatton, Baldomir, Mosley all completely hopeless.......got it.....thanks for clearing that up for us.

Honestly those guys in the bold I thought were hopeless going into the Mayweather bout. Personally myself thought Oscar and Hatton were hopeless. I gave both guys zero chances of winning the fight. Just like I thought both guys were hopeless when they fought Pac. I gave Hatton zero chance of winning and everybody thought Oscar was going to be too big for Pac but I predicted a 11th round KO for Pac. IMO all these guys were hopeless. But, I understand people thinking Hatton and Oscar were hopeless. But, the rest in the bold were hopeless. Lets not kid ourselves.
