Probably because Arum's waiting for his court cases to clear. In other words, there are still things Arum sees as a hurdle, even though it didn't stop Floyd from fighting Vic
Mayweather Jr: "Already had outfit made for the Pacquiao fight, I'm just waiting"

“People should be smart enough to realize that he’s in the middle of legal proceedings. His focus and energy is on that, clearing his name, not on making a fight. That’s just common sense," Schaefer said.
“Anything else would be disrespectful to a judge or the legal system. … He could say, OK, let’s fight Pacquiao in May or whenever and make a deal. How would a judge feel about that? You just don’t do that.”

Interesting indeed.
But you still didn't address my questions- if he was in fact saving that trick or treat outfit for Manny, why did he bust it out for Ortiz? And did he ever produce the 'signed fight contract' like he said he would?

Yeah, I found that ironic myself considering it was SCHAEFER who said Floyd couldn't fight Manny because of his trials.

Cute quotes. However, there's video out there stating Arum saying the court cases are road blocks. After he said there would be none. However, do you believe Floyd called Arum and stated those were road blocks in making a fight? Neither do I. I can only imagine Bob's appeal in making this fight happening seeing how he had a premeditated plan about having Bradley as a backup in case the negotiations fell apart
Now. Why not use it if it's been over 2 years since this fight with Manny has been in a stalemate? Surely, at some point, you have to use it, right? Are we really questioning his intent on having it prepared for Manny? Is he now a liar of some sort because he used it for Vic? As far as the contract goes, most likely a lot of big talk. That's what you get from both sides regarding thsi fight. A lot of talk, little to no bite.
I only wonder why Arum is so worried about Floyd's cases now that he has no fight lined up and a possible 2012 fight with Manny could and should be on the horizon. Any thoughts on that, Prince?Comment

I think people are reading too much into it. Its quite simple to me. He was saving it for the Pac fight but no one had seen it. Even in the vid his bodyguard & Floyd were talking about how he never lets anyone see his outfit. So then when he showed it in the vid, he didnt want to wear that one for the Pac fight anymore so he might as well use it in his next fight since everyone's now seen itComment

Wait, wait, wait. Hold up a damn minute. hold up. Lemme see if I'm following your train of thought here... So you're saying that while Floyd was on 'vacation' and not thinking about boxing he figured, Pacquiao doesn't want to fight even though I have no indication of that because negotiations never happened, so I might as well wear the outfit I've been saving for that fight for the Ortiz fight? That's what you're telling me?

You ever see that contract Floyd promised you?
Why the hell is koncz still apart of manny's team when roach and ariza don't like him. Why Pacquiao says its money splits and arum says its mayweathers court cases, while koncz still says its testing? PRINCE!!! :Thinking:Comment
