[Kagami Taiga]

honestly if this fight doesnt happen this year, then i really dont care to see it anymore. **** it. it aint gonna happen. **** em all.

[Random1]

I decided a couple years ago that it would never happen. I still keep getting my hopes up regardless.

who is arum kidding? if floyd goes to jail on june 1st he will come out sept 1st that means only 2 months for full preparation. of course this doesn't concern arum but pac's cut is too unbearable because it will take away a week of sparring.... stop it just stop.

[flint]

i hope both of them get beaten.knocked out,cuts,and both break their hands in their next fights so this fight between them can never happen. screw both the rich *****es.

People should stop blaming Arum. Pacquaio is a grown man and if he wanted this fight it would have happened. Arum is terrible but at some point it has to be Manny's responsibility to demand the fight. Arum works for him.

Co - sign. It only happens because Manny is more than happy to play along with it.

Yeah, this is on Manny. Bob's job is to make the most money for his client with the least risk, and that's what he's doing with the four possible opponents. It's not a smart business move, in my opinion, to put his client in with Mayweather who would likely beat him. The smarter business move would be to put him in with guys that have styles that are preferable to his client.

That's looking at it from a business perspective, though. I'm not a businessman though; I'm a fan. As a fan, I feel that Manny should fight Floyd on May 5th. If it doesn't happen (which it likely won't), it's on Manny.

Why build a stadium? A fight of this magnitude, if it does happen could almost possibly fill the Cowboys Stadium. If Pac/Clottey drew a crowd of 50,994 then there is no reason why Pac/Mayweather cannot draw at least 75k.

the thing about a stadium is ticket pricing. mgm grand garden arena has 16k seats of optimal quality so the tickets can be more expensive. extra 24k seats in a 40k stadium would be faraway seats and i doubt anyone would pay 1000$ for that... or whatever crazy price they come up with.
boxing is not stadium friendly sport.
