    Fast forward to the present time. Pac publically called Floyd out and said he wants the fight. Arum publically stated that enough is enough and will do everything in his power to make the fight. Testing is no longer an issue and as long as the split is a fair one with Floyd obviously taking the bigger slice of the pie, I don't see why Arum being in the picture would prevent Floyd from getting in the ring.

    Speaking of which...where is Floyd and what is his take on Pac and Arum publically calling him out?
    And another thing, i dont think what pac said was a direct call-out! He didnt say floyd i think i can beat you, give me the chance and fight me in the ring...nono, all he said was "he wants the fight, and the fans deserve it, and its upto floyd", to me thats not a direct call out..

      Lets hope the fight gets made. nice chatting with you today.
      yeah floyd is trying and bob and manny is the one avoiding this fight.


      When asked about a fight with Pacquiao, 35, of General Santos City, Philippines, the undefeated five-division champion echoed a familiar tune - it***8217;s my way or the highway.

      "If the Pacquiao fight does happen it has to happen on Showtime pay-per-view only and Mayweather Promotions have to do the fight,***8221; said Mayweather

          Lol yeah floyd was an idiot for clearly saying that, and an even bigger idiot for denying he said it...pac says something other then "its up to my promoter" and fans jump all over it like it was something out of this world LOL! Just like when.... nevermind!

            I don't know, probably just making fun of Manny and the fact that all the things Manny and his fans call "roadblocks", including signing to a different promoter, never prevented these 4 fights from happening.

            Do you really think Arum and HBO are going to let Pacquiao fight on Showtime without any of them being involved? LOL. Please don't tell me you're that naïve.
            Stop playing dumb like evol. Giving arum step aside money has nothing to do with HBo letting him fight on showtime. Its been reported that they are discussing a shared network broadcast.

            If Arum doesn't take step aside money they will hopefully make a deal for the fight.

              either way, its no different. you only see a difference because you are creating an excuse for Manny's actions.
              Algieri wasnt even a welter, please.

              Its all kinds of different, its obvious. In one case you have a guy that doesnt know if he can handle the weight, going up. If youre a champ, you better be able to handle it. No wonder its so rare to have champs requesting cws vs divisional opponents.

                  You do know that Pac has an exclusive contract with HBO right? You do know that Pac has an exclusive contract with Bob Arum right? If Bob Arum who is Pacquiao's promoter insists on being involved in his fighters fight, there's nothing Moonves can do about it despite what kind of step aside money is thrown at him.

                      Yes, he just recently got that as HBO gave him a bonus when he resigned with TR. Yes he does. As said, Moonves is trying to because, as I showed you earlier in the article posted, he too doesn't want to work with Bob as he was already burned by his greedy, scumbag, sheisty ways.

                      So if Bob doesn't take step aside money, they will try tocraft a deal. Last I saw, Floyd and his team said Floyd wanted 66% of the ppv revenue given Pac's dismal PPVsales from the algieiri sparring session.

                      This is a SIGNIFICANT concession on Floyd's part as he personally called Manny and offered 0 ppv revenue.
