    Arum and Koncz are colluding to violate the M. Ali act in my opinion... Koncz goes along with whatever Arum says... Pac wants the May fight but Arum isn't that thrilled about it... that's obvious...


    Apparently Bob agreed on a May 2 fight. Let's hope so

      “CBS CEO Les Moonves has given Showtime boxing head Stephen Espinoza the ultimatum to deliver Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao… Or else,” Malinowski stated in his article at ringobserver.com. “If he can’t deliver Floyd, Espinoza will be out of a job. And Haymon will also be out because the new boxing boss will not work with Haymon beyond the final two contracted Mayweather fights. So Haymon, already banned from HBO, will in effect be banned at Showtime.”

        So like the Lennox Lewis vs. Mike Tyson fight, this will happen 6 years too late...when the dynamic, powerful, and more impressive fighter is well past his prime.

        Sure, everyone will tune in, but it won't be what it could have been in 2009.

            There is no Moonves quote in that article. It actually quotes Scoop Malinowski, possibly the dumbest and most inaccurate source on the world wide web. I'm sorry you took that seriously.

              Eh the source not the best but it does make sense as this is the logical step for moonves to take to force a fight. We'll see in a few days what's what. But ill put my money on Arum for once telling the truth, and your boy getting very cold feet.

                No, it doesn't make sense. At all. And there is no quote. It's just a fairy tale.

                      You said Moonves gave them an ultimatum. You lied. He never said that. Move on. Or continur with your fairy tale. Lemme know when Jesus makes a guest appearance.
