Wake up you ****** dumb cnt , the fight is about to happen and you wanna play fanboy , if you cant figure out that neither fighter is ducking the other and BOTH want the fight your a fckn moron .

Floyd might claim he wants this fight but with the high risk he is only willing to do it with close to 90% of the purse. With a defeat his whole aura of being undefeated will crumble as well as his stock. With high risk floyd wants to make sure he gets high reward. These guys could have had 3 fights by now. Ali lost to frazier in their first fight but won the last two.

I just hope 24/7 wins out a the negotiating table. All access is ok but for this fight it would only be right if we get Mayweather/Pacquiao 24/7.

[Small Turn]

I smell the fight is coming soon!

[Str8 Right]

sounds like most sides actually involved in negotiations are not trying to ruin it by going to the press its going to happen i can feel it and bobs just making a last ditch effort to move it to another date so he can profit off 2 fights

Agreed with this..more money in bobs pockets if canelo/cotto fight Cinco DE mayo And obviously may/pac sells any month, date, and time of the year.

To ALLLLLLLLLL the Cat in the Hat readers:

Hershman : " but its a BUSINESS CALL !!!!!!!!!!

I Pounded this all yesterday to no avail !!

Business will win the day or Lose the day, depends on JR.

The Boxing World is looking at Jr !! Will the little nutjob agree to a decent deal and make the fight happen or will he seek to snub his way OUT!!!?????

Like Hershman said , Boxing is good !!!! whether Jr ?? or NOT !!!!

[Derranged]

I really think its gonna happen this time. I don't care if its a tad late. MAKE IT HAPPEN.

[Rip Chudd]

So the numbers were higher than 300K but you won't release them? Hmm, sounds like an Espinoza answer to me.

Good on Hershman though not wanting to talk public at all about the fight. That's how you make it happen.

Ken even managed to get in a jab on Andre Ward. No more $2mill for tune up fights.

Why does Top Ranks side never want to put out any specifics about the negotiation, but say Mayweather doesn't want to fight? What were they offered? If you just put it out there than the fans could decide for themselves.

The negotiations need to be done out in the open. The only offers that are ever put out are from Floyds side. Whether you think it is fare or not at least they put numbers out there (Mayweather, and Espinoza).
