      It would have, if Pac hadn't straight up walked away from negotiations and refused drug testing, than announced the Clottey fight a day later.

      I can hear it now, if Mayweather-Pacquiao happens, the Pac lvoers are going to say "Floyd waited for Manny to slow down, and Manny ****** when Floyd fought him". Manny isn't prime anymore, hasn't been since the Cotto fight in 2009, and Floyd isn't prime anymore either, hasn't been since the hatton fight in 2007. They are both past prime-still really good, just like Leonard and Hagler in 87'. 2012 is the year, if it doesn't happen and Arum/Pac don't even negotiate, they will forever be remembered as the people that avoided the Floyd fight. I don't want to see it in 2013, when Floyd is 36 and Manny is 34. 2012, now or never.

      Manny and Floyd BOTH need each other, no matter what they say. But, how can the fight happen when Arum and Pacquiao aren't even open to negotiating??? Floyd can still fight Sergio, a career defining fight no doubt. But, the bigger career fight would be Pacquiao.

        If only Floyd's dad was not with the Mayweather team, the fight could have happened. It was Senior who didn't want Jr to fight Pac because of his "speculation", he started it all.

          Pacquiao has himself to blame.

              After the margarito fight i think. Pac did gain more popularity from the texas stadium fights. The mosley fight was a complete waste of time and marquez made him look human.

                  This is true.

                    All this going back and forth and circling around each other to build the fight has backfired, because people are doubting wether Pacquiao will indeed be able to end Mayweather's undefeated record. Arum should be looking to cashout with his biggest payday in boxing history.
