Talk to your lawyers floyd!!

The courts want FLOYD to fight before his sentence JUNE 1ST. If they can allow a MAY 5 fight, then they can also allow a MAY 26 fight.

The judge only moved the sentencing back so that he could still do his job and fulfill contractual obligations for a fight on May 5th. It would look like posturing for him to go back in front of her for the 3rd time with more excuses. She's already received flack as it is for not honoring the morality of the situation and immediately putting Mayweather in prison for fighting with his baby momma. I guess its worth a shot, but I'll be the person telling everyone on Boxingscene "I told you so" when the judge tells Floyd to eff off.

Its not like Floyd has to ask the judge for an extension. He can jsut say instead of may 5th, itll be end of May, which in no way impacts his June 1st date.

NO EXTENSION NEEDED.

This makes no sense. Why do you need someone to guarantee the purse when the parties have agreed to a 50-50 split?

Besides, how would the person who guarantees the purse make any money off the deal?

This is how it should work. If I am the promoter, I guarantee both sides a certain amount (say 50 mill a piece for a total of 100 mill). Then I (the promoter) make my money once the fight grosses that amount, plus any promotions costs (say another 10 mill for a guaranteed total of 110 mill) . Anything above that amount is my profit.

No one would risk that kind of money unless they themselves were assured of making a profit. It seems Arum wants to be the promoter without taking any risks. Does anyone think this fight won't sell?

Don King would guarantee the money if he were allowed to "promote" the fight.

they aint going to chucky cheese ...this a 80+ million fight....dates can change! stop trying to hold on! Let go!

Dates can change huh?
Not when your out on bail was suppose to be in jail already.
The judge gave a later date of June 1st so that Floyd could fight May 5th.

So Floyd can do what he wants to do and just ignore the legal system?
Stop......

You don't bite the hand that feeds you.
You don't lie to a judge who just helped you stay free and make millions.

You keep your word.

Plus floyd has another 3 months suspended(he was sentenced to 6 months)
Why would he risk pissing that judge off and making her add those extra 3 months keeping him in jail for 180 days vs 90 days?

It's a clear duck move asking for late May.

[NaijaD]

OMG?? a new arena?? really??...... and how much would that cost?

These people find new excuses as to why they cant do this thing on May 5th. They contradict themselves on a daily basis and still get the support of dumbazzes like PACBOY who has to be the biggest, most ******ed dude here. Heck even Check hooks done packed it in, either that or hes banned.

The ball is in your court floyd accept the date or duck pac again...
