Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: If Mayweather Wants May 2nd - No Problem!

[Bolopunch68]

Wow...so now finally Pac is open to the fight? He claims that they are now talking and this never happened before....I guess he forgot that Floyd personally called him before. I guess he forgot that Mayweather also INITIATED the only attempted negotiations in the past.....smh.

You called that negotiation? SMDH to these groupies. What about the counter offer? Did he agreed with it?

"Arum stopped short of saying he would not participate in the planning of a long-awaited Mayweather-Pacquiao showdown on the same date as Cotto-Alvarez.

“I’m not saying that,” said Arum. “I’m just saying that it’s poaching on a Mexican date and it’s disrespectful to the Mexican people. Period. I’ll make that stand.”

Lets right a song about it to help you guys remember.

I'm not saying that! Stop saying that I'm saying that.
Repeat about 3x. It has a good ring to it and it'll help you guys remember.

I like the song, "its upto my promoter" better!! That one had a better ring to it..

Just put promising, top prospect Mexican boxers on the undercard..on May 2nd, and everyone will be happy.

Negative.

This is Mayeather vs Pacquiao. A fight of this magnitude is worthy of a phenomenal stacked undercard that race shouldn't have anything to do with. Period. And no compromise fck that.

Again, why is Arum having "discussion" with the Moonves guy and not Floyd's team? Showtime doesn't specify who Floyd fights, just that he fulfills his contractual fights. I would be less skeptical if this was being discuss with Mayweather's team. Manny, you need to consult Arum before making these statements or have both of you make a joint statement, because Arum says that date belongs to Mexicans, and you are fighting in April and November, thank you.

Negotiate with Al Haymon directly......don't negotiate with les moonves ...les moonves can say he can try to deliver the fight but at the end its Al who has the last say....pacquiao or not who ever floyd fights next they have to pay him his guaranteed 35 million..its called a contract for a reason

thats more like it.

We like to keep it real here.

[-MEGA-]

You gotta source?

Do I need one? De la Hoya already said long ago that they would move the date if may fought pac. Bob followed suit cause him and DLH are working together for the possible canelo cotto showdown. Which is a big enough fight to force mayweather vs joe shmo off the date. It was all a ploy to put pressure on the May pac fight. Mayweather particularly.

You guys should really learn to read between the lines. Your idiocracy perpetuates this shaded grey area that doesnt exist. The fight should happen period. It's the best fight business wise and for the sport.


Either way it looks like Bob Arum has a mega fight on May 2nd. With or without Mayweather.

Kinda like chess and mayweather is in check.

lol tell that to arum

[al-Xander]

TBE is full of crap. Don't know what excuse he will come up with next. What a scared individual.
