Michael Koncz - Door not closed on Mayweather vs. Pacquiao

[The Big Dunn]

YEah well he should have been open to it in 2010 when it was at the height of it's relevance, instead he ran away to fight Clottey. He could have gotten 50% of a 3 million PPV buy fight, now he may get 35-40% of a 2 million PPV fight IF it happens

Absolutely. refused to fight over some simple blood tests. but hey he's got his pride. ****ing idiot.

pac should have left arum as early as the hatton fight nobody is interested in the fight anymore give it up. stop begging for a pay day.

Unless Bob Arum dies, this fight ain't going to happen.

This is exactly why Pac should have taken Floyd's 40 million dollar offer (20 million up front shipped next day) and told Bob to stand down for a fight then resume his commitment to Bob after the Floyd fight. But Pac's ego and delusion got in the way, and that was that. I agree with you though. Bob is the #1 reason why this fight has not happened and perhaps will never happen until maybe these guys are 40 and over the hill. Think Leonard/Hearns 2 or Leonard/Camacho, or Leonard/Duran 3....or any of the recent Roy Jones Jr. fights.

He's under contract with Arum so he can't just tell Arum to get bent and go do his own thing unless he wants to get sued. But he shouldn't have signed with Arum again in the first place.

damn imagine that. no filler "duck OSDT/mayweather" fights. would've gone straight into a schooling by floyd.

[Pacquiao'd]

And mayweathet was the one ducking. Haha. Pac and his team are idiots

I don't think it will ever happen. Mayweather would only agree to the fight if he got most of the money so Pacquiao would probably make more money fighting someone else. The promoter feud and the Showtime HBO feud and Pacquiao not fighting in the states all make this fight highly unlikely to ever happen.

pac just can't leave top rank when he wants. it's called a contract. 40 million after he pays arum is a normal payday for pac. it was a ridiculous offer to fool simple minded people. omg 40 million take it! except when you actually do the math...yea totally unreasonable.

actually it was floyd. 100-0 ppv split and his fake testing demands. it was never the testing as we found out. no one changes their demands that drastically and wants to fight. especially after going on a take the test media tour. he bluffed and paid the price.

There was a point where he was a big enough star that he could have forced Arum's hand, because Arum needed Manny and what he brought him. What could Arum have done if Manny said Floyd or no one else, except meet the demands because he couldn't make Manny fight.

That ship has sailed though~
