my exact words were based on what arum said, the negotiations are over & pac has agreed to whatever agreement arum & whoever he was negotiating with (we know now (according to arum) ross greenburg/al haymon) except that floyd has not signed off. never did i say both fighters signed & the fight is done.

arum mediated through greenburg who negotiated through al haymon.
its amazing to me how floyd fans can still bear to defend him.
he has not shown interest in the fight. never even had the decency to put up a statement for a reason why the fight is not signed. i mean, how hard is it to say that arum was talking out of his ass (if he was) and a deal hasn't been reached?
he doesn't care for any of his fans, or for the sport. he returned to boxing cause his ego can't take all the love pac is getting, yet is the one who seems reluctant in fighting him.
They never answered calls from top rank & ross greenburg who was mediating negotiations for this fight. It seems like it was only top rank who was putting in all the time & effort to make this fight happen. Where was team mayweather? Where was GBP?
How many excuses has it been now?
1. Cutoff date/random drug testing.
2. Roger going to jail. Cant fight without Roger.
3. Tax purposes. Cant fight again this year. will get taxed too much. wait till next year.
4. Floyd is taking another retirement. Disappoints the make a wish kid.
Arum put it out there the best he can. Floyd/team mayweather refuses to answer arum or greenburg. So arum gives him a deadline hoping the sporting public will reach him. PtI & Around the Horn even made time for boxing to call floyd out.
Im disgusted by this. On both sides really. It would have been the perfect time to announce the fight. world cup is over. no nba. no college football, basketball, no nba season, lebron watch over, middle of baseball season.
but once again, boxing punches their loyal fans in their testicles....
Floyd never bothered to reach out to top rank. Instead he's busy clubbing in miami not getting drunk while not hanging out with females.
Shut up, you clueless ****.
Anybody with a solitary brain-cell is already bored of your steaming bull**** and whining.
You know absolutely nothing. No-thing. And your opinions and cute little rants are unadulterated gah-bage. You're also about a fraction as smart and informed as you think you are. Oh, and quit with the pretence that you're on some righteous crusade for the prosperity of boxing as a sport. You barely even post about the sport.
Listen, I've said for this entire year that the fight would never happen. And it's not Team Pacquiao's fault. They shouldn't even try to make the fight happen in 2011, it's a waste of time.
Pacquiao should now be 52-3-2, his last win being a W.O. against FMJ.
