It was once billed the fight of the century, now Manny and Arum have made it the duck of the century.

I rarely believe these "reports".
You've been protecting Arum lately...
Losing a step Edgarg?
Has your dislike for Floyd (I remember way back when you were discrediting his Corrales win) really gone that far as to try to justify the random ramblings of someone like Arum?

Arum wants to change the date which makes absolutely no sense.
Again May 5th in not just some arbitrary date here, this is one of the biggest boxing dates. It doesn't matter that neither Pacquiao or Mayweather are not mexican. Mexicans make up a huge percentage of boxing fans who buy the PPV's, and they expect big fights on May 5th.
Bob Arum knows this, which is why when he thought Mayweather was going to jail he was wanting to put Pacquaio on May 5th.
What about this don't you understand?
....whether or not pac vs floyd fights happens on may 5th , it will sell no matter what, no matter when....the date is irellevant wheterh it'll sell or not...
i undertand wht team floyd are trying to make pople belive, it's just not beliveable for me...the judge was able to pospone floyd's incarceration date , i think the judge is more than capable of letting floyd fight late may...

Everyone already knows this. Bob Arum knows this as well. He's not fooling anyone with his revenue talk. He knows that Floyd's locked into that date in that particular venue. Floyd's scared of Manny's right hand but the promoter who made that statement, doesn't wish to have his fighter unleash that right hand on May 5th. We all saw that right hand he was talking about on Nov. 12th. It's not ineffective, but it's not absolutely shocking either. He hit Marquez with a couple of nice ones. He also mistimed one and caught a sweet right hand counter for his trouble. They know he can't move past 5-5 or the MGM. That's why they are crying for a bigger stadium.

"I'm not married to May 5, so Manny could fight on another date in May," Arum said. "If Manny's opponent is Marquez, I'd be much more married to the date."
This quote should constantly be brought up. Obviously, he's stating that he likes the date for Marquez because he's Mexican. However, everybody knows that there has been huge boxing fights on the first weekend of May that do not involve Mexican boxers in the Main Event. Both GBP and Top Rank have plenty of fighters that can be put on the undercard to make it an even more stellar event. The only thing that's stopping this fight it seems is the pride of Bob Arum. Which is silly because it's not like if Mayweather is asking for Bob Arum and Pacquiao to choose a date that is clearly out of the question for them. It's not like if he's a ***ish fighter and is asking him to fight on Yom Kippur.
