Im glad to see that he will fight JMM again rather than a tune up!

Why is Bob trying so hard to have it on Sept 17th?
Is he trying to make less money?
Have a June fight in wherever you want and then a winter/fall matchup

Every potential scenario stated here sounds very far fetched to me.

[ИATAS]

It's not about taxes, arum is simply using that as an excuse to the fact that Pacquiao has been suspended from boxing after that brutal KO and that includes sparring. If Pacquiao were to fight in April in the US he wouldn't allow to be sparring in Feb/March.

Sneeky bastard.

It would be cool if they went overseas and fought in front of the troops. Of course Arum would never go for that seeing as he wouldn't really make any money from ticket sales.
