I think that Floyd has already told him that he is not accepting Arum and Pac's terms (the 14-day cutoff) and Arum is using this conference call tonight to promote Pac/Margarito because he knows that that fight is going to bomb on PPV in the U.S. Floyd is keeping silent now, but I think he will make a statement in a few days, telling the boxing world that he never agreed to terms on anything and Arum knew it long before this deadline.

    At that time, Arum will look like an idiot and all the idiots on this site who have been making all these ridiculous comments about Floyd beign scared, etc., are going to look like bigger idiots (if that is even possible)!
    Then wouldn't it make sense for Floyd to just come out and say somethin now to scupper Arum's plans and derail his use of Mayweather's name to promote Pac/Marg?

              Arum has gone out of his way to make it clear to the public that he will cease negotiations with Mayweather when the deadline has expired.

              At first I did not take Arums "deadline" seriously at all, in fact I pictured Mayweather rocking up 2-3 weeks later to nail the final points and then sign.

              But no, Arum will stick to this deadline, I am sure of it.

              We will need to wait for a press release from Team Mayweather until we can reasonably determine whether there will be a third round of negotiations early next year.

I think the fact that this fight isn't going/cannot be made is the reason less people want to watch it overall. The politics involved always turned people away and this has to be the worst time ever. MMA will take over when a fight like this never happens and every fight people want in MMA does happen.
                No, boxing will always be more popular than MMA, because MMA is a **** product when compared to boxing. MMA is mainly for young/drunk people, who just wanna see a fight..... not for people who understand the various style match-ups that the sweet science brings.

                Boxing is a sport that is steeped in history, and has many great fighters that will be remembered forever..... hardly anybody in my country has ever heard of GSP or Lesnar.

                Boxing will survive, and could even flourish. It just needs more central control. It is constantly abused by promoters/abc bodies/television networks, there needs to be a central authority.

                  He's at home scared ****less hoping his phone dont ring..
                  I don't think that Floyd will be getting a call.

                  Didn't the article say that after the deadline, Arum will make a conference call?

                  The conference call is to publicly announce that there will be no Mayweather fight, and maybe it will give us an indication as to Manny's next opponent?

                  Or maybe I mis-read?

                  That is what I assumed anyway, after reading that article.

                    So, Floyd's silence means team Pac never wanted to or will fight him (Floyd)?
                    hmmmm... not so dumb...
