ELLERBE: "Calling to ask what Floyd wants is NOT a negotiation..."

[Phenom]

that is called back up plan, maybe Arum made a back up plan while they were waiting for Floyd to come out of hiding, and maybe because Arum had a feeling Floyd will chicken out. so he made a Plan b.

anyone who thinks Pac or even Arum don't want the fight to happen is either an idiot or a ***** in denial that Floyd is scared of a little asian dude.

yeah and Clottey was a back up plan too right 3 day's after the 1st negotiations failed we knew pac was fighting in Dallas stadium on march 13

be honest dude Arum is milking Manny for everything his worth before feeding him to Floyd I seen that act from Arum before

[Squizz]

u really are a floyd fan. good at ducking the real issues. Floyd doesnt want to fight Pac. that's the truth whether u like it or not.

Yes. And apparently Pacman is afraid of a drug test, if you really wanna' play that game. Floyd will fight Pacman, he's just gotta' take the tests. If that makes him a chicken and a *****, I dunno. I mean, a chicken wouldn't have taken a shot at Shane Mosley at this juncture. Shane was still a very LIVE opponent, and someone who Pacman himself ducked. Please. Floyd would fight Pacman, if he'd just take the tests. You seriously think Floyd wants to leave like $40million on the table? Of course not. But he also wants to fight against an opponent on a level playing field, and for that I don't blame him.

LOL good one.

I concur, these Pac fans are sad. They know Pac wouldn't fight the biggest fight of his career without Roach(and possibly not even being able to train with him) A felony trial also is a big distraction to the training camp and unfair to the fighter, not to mention his trainer is a family member

typical ***** post here folks

[Phenom]

typical ***** post here folks

dude look at who Manny fought this year instead of Floyd
1. Clottey
2. Marg

his going through his roster 1st man it's obvious Arum trying to cash in on his new cash cow before Manny retires or Losses to Floyd.
not saying Manny is scared of Floyd because he is not but Arum is

[grayfist]

Well there it is...ross submitted a proposal to haymon and team mayweather told them they will accept this. Then arum put up a deadline on his site and called it negotiations!

Oscar also called it negotiation in June and used the words "very close" several times to describe the progress; and just days ago, Ross gave it the same label.

**** don't talk about this useless test anymore. We boxing fans already know this a useless test designed by Floyd to duck Pacquiao. Everything is clear now. Floyd doesn't
want any part of Pac and he rather go vacation tham fighting him for 40 million!
