Looks like Holyfield/Tyson all over again,,,,as a die-hard fan we've seen it all before: just replace King with Arum and it's the 90s all over again. Boxing politics/economics--i.e, hard nose negotiating, bickering back and forth, is all apart of the fight game. This fight gets made on three fronts: 1) Both Pac and Mayweather "genuinely" want to tap with each other; 2) Other than each other there's very limited opposition available; and most importantly 3) It's a fight the fans--both die-hard and casual alike--overwhelmingly want to see happen.
I've been passionately following the sport of boxing for over two decades now, history says a fight of this magnitude gets made, but if for some very bizarre reason it doesn't, would I care? Heck no, the fight game will survive. There's already some really good prospects coming up that should create a similiar "buzz" in boxing. As die-had fans that's all we really need in boxing anyways: something to talk **** about.

Steward fuels 'The Reason Pacquiao Lost To Floyd' excuse crowd:
36. "There's a lot of wear and tear on his body."
37. "And I think also his personal life and his political life have got to affect him."
38. "It seems like he's spread himself kind of thin now."
39. "I think he's got too overloaded in too many ways now."
