    arum's not like that.

    if it makes him money he'll do it. same with schaeffer.

    floyd-pac would make tr money. floyd-pac would make gbp money.

    god knows pac needs the money.

    we all know who is not making the fight happen.

    the guy gbp or tr can't force to fight.

      not buying mayweather anymore without a doubt especially against khan. But manny is running out too. Maybe just wipe out the doubt with bradley but thats all.

          I'd like to see Top Rank and GBP work together a couple times before I believe they can actually pull off co-promoting Pac vs Mayweather. They could start with fights like Maidana vs Ruslan or Rios vs Matthysse.

            That's true he could push GBP to the side. But if he's serious about being a promoter he has to worry about his other fighters as well. Is he going to move his entire stable to HBO? Plus Haymon and Bob Arum absolutely loath each other. So who is left to negotiate on Floyd's behave?

              Well what do you expect when a guy and a promoter from another stable sues you, your company and your fighter? Of course Schaefer ain't putting money in Bob's pockets.

              Manny's ***** arse shouldn't have sued if he wanted a fight so badly then.

                ummm.... they sued each other before too.

                then put together a bunch of tr-gbp fights right after.

                pac-jmm 2, pac-hatton, pac-delahoya, mosley-margarito, etc.


                it all went to crap because floyd's roid accusations.

                  I meant the second suing

                  Floyd or GBP didn't accuse Manny of roiding when Manny filed his lawsuit in 2009. Manny was just butthurt because people thought he was roiding with all his excuses

                    gbp/pbf lawyers disagree. that's why they settled.

                      Nah they settled because they can afford to, and Pacs rep WAS tarnished as many people still accuse him of using roids.
