      you also have to remember floyd is older than pacquiao.

      pacquiao will remain viable longer than floyd.

      so go ahead and put all your eggs in the haymon/floyd basket.

      lol at some small time hood manager taking over boxing and destroying top rank, a promotional firm that made oscar and floyd and can put on its own ppvs without showtime or hbo. arum has been in the game since the 70s and his model and foundations are tried and tested.

      i seriously doubt if haymon and floyd can even destroy oscar and gbp never mind arum.

      you people will know soon enough.

        Floyd is younger than pacquaio in boxing years.

        floyd has taken less punches.

        pacquaio relies on athleticism more so than mayweather.

          floyd is closer to 40 than pacquiao is.

          i think pacquiao fights longer than floyd.

              And why is it not going to happen? Because Floyd refuses to deal with Arum. You "OK" with that?

                  It is not wise for manny to leave arum and just trust floyd with his 'word of honor'.

                  If manny would leave arum there should be an 'iron clad legal document contract' that will enable him to fight floyd and how much will he earn, gloves to use, ring size etc.. this should be done before he leave arum. And then there's the problem of floyd low balling manny to the ground when negotiation happens. And then after that, what will happen to manny? He is a very busy man, he cannot attend to promote himself well; --he is a congressman, an artist, philanthropist etc. etc.. he is unlike most of us who have free time. This man is living life to the fullest.

                    So what? The one not wanting the fight is Floyd. Signing an extension with Top Rank doesn't make the fight impossible. The Arum excuse is just ridiculous.

                      What don't you people get?

                      Remove Floyd completely from the equation.

                      There are still a ton more sellable and viable fights under Golden Boy than under Top Rank.

                      But I do understand that everything ain't for everybody, and Pac seems to like Arum to handle the logistics of all his fights so who cares anymore
