    Arum would make more money compared to a Pac-Margarito fight.....

    Are you sure about that? Am sure with purse cut from two different fighters in his stable Arum makes more than in a Mayweather fight.

      I kind of disagree.There's so much money at stake till the point where boxing fans and promoters wont even know till the aftermath.But Hey i wouldnt doubt the margairto fight in place man.I just pray it doesnt end up this way.It shouldn't,i think we've waited too long.

        Hopefully PBF approves, I'm stoked to see this fight. Unless there are other things in the contract that he doesn't like, I don't think the 50/50 and 14 day cut-off stipulations are unreasonable enough for him to say no.

        If for some reason he declines, I'm all ears on the reasoning for doing so.

          Maybe. What about 54% of one fight? Two?

            why the fuuck are you singling me out? Even BPP stated both camps top rank & golden boy agreed to terms and sent the proposal to floyd. I'm simply being optimistic and all ya'll guys are being extremely negative. I'm going by this, oscar de la hoya saying the fight is almost done, the broad stating an arena is being built for the fight, "sources close to floyd" saying the fight will be made, MM's report a few weeks back about how happy arum was about the negotiations, etc etc etc. There have been lots of positive things over the past few weeks that indicate this fight may actually happen.

              Its just to vague? why not just say, hey we agreed to random testing all the way up to the fight? I like Pac but Arum is making him look bad. Arum must think all of us are corkys from life goes on??!

                You also have to factor in the money he would get from having the fight in Cowboys Stadium. Marg-Pac is a hit in Texas.

                He'd also get another 25 Million from Jerry Jones just for having it there.

                  I'm so confused when it comes to that. Originally I was told that Arum can't do that, but no one has been able to provide me with legit information as to why he can't.

                    optimistic? according to Arum? Nah you're just making excuses and diverting the attention to Mayweather. How is the fight up to Mayweather now according to you?

                      Pac wouldve already signed it.

                      Margarito vs. Pacquiao
                      dude is in the philippines being a congressman....playing ball with the delegates and working on his political **** lol...

                      plus, if they give pac who's already busy a contract to sign and floyd rejects it....then if GBP and top rank were to talk some more and hand pac ANOTHER contract, you would think pac would be a little pissed huh?
