    Guess people forgot this The Man in his own words:

    Days Ago 11/28/11


    Arum said “if I explore the deal and Floyd likes the deal, hopefully he’ll accept it and if he doesn’t like the deal and then he says we have to do a regular ordinary deal so we run it ourselves, I’ll sit down with whomever he says. But right now it makes no sense to sit down with anybody else.”

    Top Rank promoter Bob Arum has confirmed that Manny Pacquiao’s adviser Michael Koncz met with Floyd Mayweather Jr at his gym in Las Vegas but both Arum and Konc


    So Arum is exploring some investors deal mostly on his own. (Which most likely will be turned down) Is he gonna hold to his word and try to make a deal the normal ordinary way?

      I personally don't think that Floyd wants the fight, Pac does, Arum doesn't want it either.
      I agree that Manny wants the fight, and its obvious now that Arum doesn't. However with Floyd, imo, I think he doesn't care whether he fights Manny or not,

        Both can go to hell....Honestly both should take their circus act to retirement. All they do is lie and contradict themselves. The hell with both camps.
        Why would you want to split the purse 50/50 with pacquiao even though you literally bring in more, and then lose a little of that because he sued you as well... With this much involved it was easy to think that the case would be dropped. THESE CATS ARE SAYING 75 MILLION EACH, PAC HAS NEVER EVEN made that much in his last 5 fights......

        I MEAN HIS NAME IS MONEY MAYWEATHER...LMAO

          I say it time and time again.......Bob Arum will come out with his talk about investors wanting the fight, on going negotiations, saying this or that is all set, a deal has been offered to Floyd, and than he'll say Floyd turned it down, even though no negotiations were even taking place with Floyd, Al Haymon, Ellerbe, as well as Richard Schaefer. Floyd made it clear and so did Ellerbe, sit down with them and Golden Boy (Schaefer) and make a deal to fight. May 5, 2012 is ready, enough with the bulls**t Bob.

          I feel sorry for Manny Pacquiao, because he and Roach actually confirm that they want Mayweather and that Koncz was sent to talk with Arum about making a Floyd fight. I have no doubt in my mind that Ariza (who usually says dumb s**t) is 100% right about Koncz and Arum.....they are liars and together with not making the fight happen.

          We already have Bob Arum saying that Pac agreed to the testing and would drop the lawsuit against Floyd, so what's stopping them from sitting down with Floyd, Haymon, Ellerbe, and Schaefer??? We also already have Bob Arum saying he'd prefer a 4th fight with Marquez instead, and we have the June 9, 2012 rumor of that being the date Pac is fighting again, not May 5, 2012 against Floyd.

          It's complete bulls**t and watch the moronic Pac lovers buy Arum saying "Floyd turned down the fight", complete s**t. Arum already has his other fight lined up with Marquez, and possibly Bradley, and is already lining up his bulls**t defense on how Floyd supposedly turned down the offer, even though no one involved with Mayweather or his camp were involved in any negotiations. I mean, how many people do we need to come and say that Koncz didn't discuss anything fight related with Floyd in Vegas??? S**t, we already have Floyd himself saying he didn't know who Koncz was and that they took a picture together, that's it. I have no doubt in my mind that Arum sent Koncz to Vegas to make it seem like they are trying to make a Floyd fight, thus fooling Manny as well in the process, along with 90% of the casual fight fans and all of the Pac lovers.

          I can't believe this bulls**t. What is stopping them from sitting down with Floyd, Ellerbe, Haymon, and Schaefer, and making the fight happen???? BOB ARUM. Now we also get the s**t about how Bob Arum suposedly knows that Floyd is going solo on this fight and how Schaefer and Golden Boy won't be involved, and Floyd just called bulls**t on that. I hope most boxing fans see the light.

            i dont think floyd would fight someone who's a real threat to beating him, this time it's most likely that arum is the one that's lying because the way pac fought marquez still showed his vulnerability to counter punchers and still hasn't figured it out and that fits exactly into mayweather's style

                It's a sad state of affairs, man. And in the end, we the paying public lose.

                  Nothing more to say bro... Floyd loves working with Schaefer..... Bob can simply just sit down and talk...

                  The only thing that pisses me off is Floyd acts like a ******. Dont let them stick you again, this time let the world know !!! Go to the media and let them know you want to sit down with ARUM and co. I swear sometimes Floyd acts simple as hell .... This whole wait and let it play out approach with this fight is ******ed in itself....

                    Amazing how taking the olympic style blood test isn't the hot topic anymore...
                    What's the topic now, taking back the lawsuit?
                    Then what? After he drops the lawsuit, I wonder what's the next topic we'll be discussing next....
                    I'm glad I didn't buy into this May 5th 2012 BS.
                    This fight most likely will never happen whether its under Bob arum,Don King or Oscar....Sad but true!

                      He's been fairly active in the media in recent weeks. It really doesn't matter because it's a double-edged sword. The response will be that he wants the fight now because Manny didn't look so hot. Truthfully, it really doesn't matter what Floyd does so long as the other side doesn't want to make the fight. And there's no way a ****y, undefeated African-American is going to win a media battle anyway.
