    HBO wanted the fight, Ross Greenburg didn't and he got forced out for it.

    Once again, Floyd is a hypocrite.

      And no, it doesn't matter if Floyd did it for business because Pacquiao left HBO for business as well and Floyd ripped him for it.
      come on dude that was then-this is now. although I find it odd he would go to showtime.

        This is business and money talks. Like you would stay with HBO just for not being called an hypocrite. The highest bidder gets the fight.

          I'm very surprised HBO let this happen, it sheds a very different light on the whole 'no one's going to tell me who to fight' talk. Maybe HBO wanted Mayweather to take more risks?

            But yet it was a big deal for the Floyd **** riders who said that Pac was a traitor to HBO back in 2011?

                HBO would certainly want this fight. It probably has more to do with Al Haymons close relationship with Showtime.

                  Kinda hypocritical but I hope Showtime doesn't drop the ball with this like they did with Manny.

                  I'd like to see them promoting this during March Madness, The Masters, 60 minutes, David Letterman and any other avenues they can find.

                    I'm not sure how it works, but maybe HBO didn't want to pay Mayweather what he wanted. Lets face it, he won't be around much longer.

                      Haymon has huge influence at HBO. Most of the GBP cards on HBO involve his fighters.
