    Their decision.



    You don't need to explain to me what happened.

    You know you don't.

    You don't know what terms Arum sent to Floyds team... you simply, straight up... do NOT know.

    So you cannot say side A tried harder than side B.

    For all we know what happened, is Arum sent over his contract with the cutoff date... and Team Mayweather looked at it, and moved on... because it is not what they wanted, while keeping to their selves.

    Just because one side talked non stop and the other did no talking, doesn't mean one side tried harder than the other.

    Neither of us read what that contract said that Arum sent over.
    True but when it all fell thru someone from his camp should've came to the forefront instead of denying negotiations which Greenberg even acknowledged as true...Why would he lie?

      No idea... I'm not in Floyds camp, I can't answer for them.

      I personally feel there were obviously negotiations that took place... or at the very least a degree of negotiations.

        There is no question I will bash and defend Floyd in the same thread.

        Ok, honest question...

        Do you feel Floyd is interested in making the fight with Pac? To me, and many throughout the boxing world, it seems as if he has no interest and is using OSDT and money as a smokescreen.

        It's not only Floyd haters either who see it this way. The majority feels this way.

          I think he wants to fight Pac, and make the money that goes along with the fight.

          But is simply unwilling to give in on his steroid testing stance.

          I think the biggest thing with him is, RANDOM testing.


          You can say Floyd should just drop the steroid testing BS... as easily as I can say Pac should just take the damn tests.


          I do think he wants the fight, but he isn't willing to bend on the steroid testing...


          I'm not here to defend Floyd, though.. just give my opinions.

            I feel like he specifically came back for pac. He announced his fight pac nemesis on the day Pac fought hatton!

            But what did I miss...Did Floyd state he was about to fight this year?

When the majority of the boxing world is looking at Floyd like a ducker who is afraid of Pac, all he had to do was unleash Ellerbe or state himself that the reason for him not agreeing to the second round of negotiations (which according to ellerbe) never happened, was because Arum and Pac did not meet his testing demands. Very simple and would save Floyd face in the process.
              You want floyd to tell you what terms are in the contract top rank sent to him rather than top rank tell you themselves when they announce "we have agreed to terms" ? Respectfully this makes no sense.

                Well atleast Pac put it out there what he didnt like with the negotiations, when all was said and done, Mayweather on the otherhand,BIG MOUTHED, ****Y, ARROGANT,ATTENTION CRAVING,Mayweather ran away, hid under a rock, denied any negotiations and then said he's not thinking about boxing! whats that I smell, I smell....I smell....I smell PU$$Y!
                Its called a gag order that was agreed upon obviously Team Pac didnt follow the order

                Just because floyd will beat pac doesnt mean he's not pu$$y. He has skill but no heart(pu$$ies have no heart)
                FUnny how you are calling a grown man that just fought the legit WW champ a pus sy
                however I do agree that Floyd has no heart and maybe its cause he really hasnt had to show it as of late. It isnt his fault he can easily outbox his opponents

                Originally posted by da beatdown
                Team Pac was.......they were very vocal while the usually big mouthed Mayweather was silent on the matter...why the change of character?
                Once again its called a gag order
                since you dont understand that means you cant say anything in regards to the negotiations

                Originally posted by da beatdown
                Ok so when all these "accusations" of the deal being done, where was team mayweather saying no deal or negotiations are in place??????
                Ok since you arent getting the gag order maybe Floyd didnt want to say anything because there was nothing to say
                It was clearly made by Ross Greenberg that Arum did not directly negotiate with anyone on team Mayweather. He was acting as the middle man so its kind of hard to negotiate what can potentially be the biggest fight in boxing history when the two sides arent directly talking

                  Im gonna chime in on this one! No..he showed minimal intrest and thats why he's being ridiculed. When Pac didnt want the OST many ridiculed him as well, but the diff is they were hotly contested negotiations that got out of hand which leads me to believe Team Pac was PASSIONATE about making this fight

                    look at it unbiased Floyds team denied negotiations when there was one and claimed he was on a break then when pac takes on another fight he begins to speak up about fighting. Please dont be blinded by your fanboyism and see it for what it is.

                      When did Pacs team come out this last time to address the testing issue
                      all I heard was Arum say its been agreed upon but he never said what was agreed upon
