Manny Pacquiao Accepts May 5th Date, Arum Yet to Respond to Official Statement

I'm confused here...........I thought Pac was ok in getting a smaller share and not 50-50?

bob arum probably talked pac out of accepting a smaller share. But I think 50-50 is much more fair though considering both guys are big cash cows.

Probly talking about 50-50 split of the revenues. Not the purse. He does say he doesn't care about the purse because his promoter already guarantees it to him.

honestly, i still don't think Arum will let it happen. It's unfortunate, but it's probably the truth. hope i'm wrong though. i got quite a bit of money on Floyd if it ever happens!

Fact is Arum is scared to let the fight happen. what a punk.

Arum is the ONLY one holding this up. Pac and Roach want this....Floyd wants this.....Arum is looking like a bigger d bag by the day. At the same time.....you have to get on Pac. He needs to just give him the big middle finger and tell Bob that he wants Floyd and if he dont like it he can suck it. So in a sense, its on Pac to once and for all stand up and call the shots to Bob. No one is scared of no one, and anyone who thinks so is a moron and a d rider.

pac never agrees to a may 5th date in the link (hints why boxingscene didn't post this up)

thread should be deleted smh

So has this been confirmed? Did Manny deny agreeing to May 5th yet, like he always does after he talks to his pimp? Pac will say he didn't say that.

There used to be a point where I would kill to see this fight and was willing to spend whatever I had to get the tickets and make the trip to Vegas. Now I am at the point where I could see myself not even caring enough to order the PPV. It's been too much b.s back and fourth the past few years and my interest in the fight has dwindled substantially. Anybody else feel this way?
