    Top Rank-Golden Boy war rages on

    The Top Rank-Golden Boy war is back at full blast after another disastrous round of negotiations for a Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight. Of course, the Mayweather side, with public comments from adviser Leonard Ellerbe and Golden Boy's Richard Schaefer, denies negotiations ever took place.

    Top Rank's Bob Arum, Pacquiao's promoter, insists they happened and was backed up by HBO Sports president Ross Greenburg, who said he served as the go-between for Arum and Al Haymon, Mayweather's other adviser, who, as usual, remains silent.

    Maybe Ellerbe and Schaefer, like me, are big fans of the TV show "Dallas," and they have no recall of the negotiations because they've had a Pamela Ewing-like dream.
