PAC said this could be his last fight and if Pac fights Gayweather then Pacquiao will tax that ass just like IRS did.

TS = angry child.

Lol, trying to make out that speculation are facts.

I guess that's why ESPN and other sports sites are also saying that there have been attempts at finalizing negotiations between the two boxers. Floyd is allowing himself to look like a scared fighter by remaining silent about the entire thing because old greedy Arum is making the entire thing up I guess

I think he would just say "there is no desire to fight Floyd and we are moving on", I think Arum is a greedy ****** too but to think all this is a big conspiracy to make Floyd look scared is ridiculous. Why would Floyd allow himself to be painted as a coward when this would be a perfect oportunity to expose Arum as a liar on multiple nationally public forums,especially with his dislike of Arum? I think a lot of people are using more of their hatred for Arum and Pac or whatever to come to realizations than logical reasoning.

New poster. New thoughts to ponder.

Let's face it. The supposed "Pacquaio Mayweather" mega fight talks for this year are a farce, a smokescreen set up by "honest" Arum to make Floyd appear 'afraid' to the cluless general public and the ******* sheeple.

Floyd stated he was 'retiring' after his fight with Mosely.

No word has been heard of from the Mayweather's on this matchup for this year.

Floyd won't fight the biggest payday of his career towards the end of the year not because he's "afraid" it's because of TAXES off the revenue he's made this year and would explode by the end of this year if the fight were to come off.

Arum needs to keep Manny's name at the top and old Bob's greedy pockets with the most cash taken in as possible. What does he do? Has 'negotiations' to old terms as if there on the table now and sends out a smokescreen with a alleged gag order but himself and team Pacquiao can't seem to stop from 'breaking' it by talking to the media. Websites and 'experts' keep reporting it for more hits, Manny and his team look 'willing' to fight and try to make Mayweather look bad by it appearing Floyd is not willing to fight. Therefore Arum and Co. can back out of a fight while appearing to be willing when they're not negotiating with Mayweather at all. Common lawyer tactic.

Arum's setting up fights with his in-house stable of a rematch with Cotto who was already beaten badly by Manny. Does anyone really need to see a rematch? Manny does and so does Bob, so they can add another "title" to his resume for barganing leverage with Floyd.

I see a match with the known cheater Marg's vs Manny actually being set up as a way to show Manny fighting a big tough Mexican warrior, then Floyd fighting Pwill as an even bigger, better opponent by the beginning of next year.

Why would Arum be talking about other matchup's and trying to set them up if they really wanted Floyd? Because they don't want Flop Stank Boxing to have an uncontrollable non in-house loss to Floyd this soon. Arum is going to keep the money in-house and will in no way let the known cheater Margarito or Cotto 'win' a fight against his cash cow Manny for future talks with Mayweather like it or not. Same reason Floyd never fought Margarito and or Cotto. A loss for them by a non in house fighter means less for the 'honest' lawyer Arum.

Bob will use Margacheato's name to boost Manny the cash cow in future talks and make Antonio take a loss the way Clottey did (but blew up when Mayweather beat Mosely who got more buys) in order to try to remove the clueless casual boxing fanboy's and general publics minds off the PED su****ions and make Manny seem the better fighter. That will blow up when Mayweather announces Pwill after Flop Stank announces Margs.

The Pacquaio Mayweather negotiations are a smokescreen set up by Arum. the real fights they are setting up is with Margs and or Cotto while Floyd is the one who goes for real challenges to his record in Arum's hopes he starts to decline.

Again. This fight will not happen this year. Words from "honest" arum's mouth himself.

Pacquiao will fight on Nov. 13 likely "no matter what," said Arum, adding that a bout with Mayweather could happen "next year in May" if not in the fall.

"Whether Manny fights Margarito or Cotto, either way, it's for a super welterweight [154 pounds] championship. Either way, Manny would be fighting for his eighth title," said Arum, adding that Pacquiao-Margarito would be for the crown vacated by Argentinian-born southpaw, Sergio Martinez, who is also the WBC's middleweight (160 pounds) belt-holder.

"The WBC super welterweight championship is against Margarito because he's [No. 1] at that weight," Arum said . "And Sergio Martinez had that title and he vacated that WBC crown to keep the WBC middleweight title. So Margarito and Manny Pacquiao would be fighting for that title."

the thing is are you floyd mayweather jr???

it is all specualtion.... its a big fight and its a big money..

Taxes?? that is not a problem its your DUTY to your country. ofcorz you get

big money so you will have to pay more taxes..

and sure arum will get more money in this fight...

making excuse on tax is a lame one...

tell PBF to get that paper and sign it and go to fight.

Win or lose he is an ATG and a hall of famer..

...good post!

no it's not.

it's not like he won't have to pay taxes on money he makes next year.

taxe rates rise the more money you make but there is a limit.

it's not like floyd will jump to a new tax bracket if he fights again.

the guy made millions of dollars from the mosley fight.
