    floyd came running when the LW coming off a win against juan diaz called him out.


    but arum, manny, GBP, al haymon pushed this fight down floyds throat and he still refused. "vacation"

    and floyd fans are embracing it

      Nah, Pacquiao would be the ice-breaker because of the money involve, If you guys understand the conflict between Arum/Top rank and Dela hoya( GBP) years back it got in the way of fighters fighting each other who happens to be under Arum or Oscar.

      If Arum and Mayweather could ever put their differences aside and make the Mayweather-Pacqiuao fight it would open up all the opportunities for any Arum fighter like Cotto, Margarito etc to fight Mayweather...

      If Cotto or Margarito were independent like Hatton was then both would have fought Mayweather by Now, Arum is the root of most of the problems here.

        With or without arum the truth is PAC is calling him out and we heard nothing.

            That meant nothing! Pac called him out but Pac's promoter isnt doing any deal with Mayweather, Mayweather has already told everyone what he wants in May after beating Mosley (OST all the way up to the fight). If they dont not agree with that then "We have NO fight"

            If people think boxers at this level are scared of each other then all i have to do is laugh at them, Am sure if Arum comes out and say we have here a sign contract for OST all the way up to the fight and here 45% to Pac and Mayweather here is 55% he would sign straight away.

            Am not into all this games by Arum, Am too intelligent for that... People think by defending Arum they are defending Pac but this isnt about Pacquiao this is more and above him.

              Pacman calls out for Floyd and Bob negotiate it. If floyd really wants to fight pacman, he should step up regardless of who negotiate it.
