Comments Thread For: Pacquiao's Adviser: Up To Mayweather To Sign Contract

[Bolopunch68]

You know damn well Arum was misleading the public.

The guy went on a media tour telling everybody that the holdup was that Floyd is still scared of Manny and that CBS are doing everything they can but they cant produce Floyd.

And that is misleading? Why? How?

Actually, it would be more of a case of Koncz kissing up to his boss. Either way, he doesn't have a damn clue what goes on in negotiations.

You know these because,,,,,

[johnm is...]

Dan Rafael stated today on Ringside here in the uk that despite the fans getting excited word on the inside is that Mayweather won't sign and is working on negotiating a Cotto rematch.

Rafael talking all that shit but he changed his twitter profile picture to a "Pacquiao vs. Mayweather" poster.

If you believe anything Stephen A. Smith says, I have a bridge that I want to sell you. Stephen A. Smith knows what he reads on the internet (just like you) and that is all he knows.

Fat Dan Rafael only knows what Bob Arum tells him. A few weeks ago, Fat Dan said that Pacquaio was the only one negotiating the fight. Now, he is saying something different every day. I have always said and will continue to say that anything that comes from Fat Dan's sources either comes from Bob Arum or is some BS that that came to him while he was gorging himself at the buffet breakfast, lunch or dinner

So, yahoo, EsPN, and other media outlet was printing the same topic, I get that. I do believe that both Iole and Fat Dan have an insider that they can get atleast tidbits of what's going on.oh I see, once Fighthype printed them we will believe whatever Thompson writes. Got yah.

Maybe his insider is misleading him or telling the truth. He prolly changed his profile picture because he already know the fight is really happening. We wouldn't know until they officially announce it. So just keep our fingers cross and hope that this fight get finalized, signed, and announce so we can get ready to the "FIGHT OF THE CENTURY"

Told that @MannyPacquiao met with Bob Arum today in LA, is up to speed with what's going on. Positive sounding...

They're waiting now for @FloydMayweather to become satisfied with TV deal between @SHOsports and @HBOboxing.

Pretty much what Watson said. Hopefully HBO and Showtime agreed on all the specifics and present them to Floyd's liking.

Sigh...

This is misleading because there was no such holdup.

Look at the timeline.

On Tuesday, Arum tells the world that Floyd is scared and nowhere to be found.

On Wednesday, HBO and SHO are meeting in NY to close the deal.

You really think the execs are meeting if one day earlier Floyd is M.I.A. and no is sure he wants the fight?

Come on man.

Sometimes the guy seems to flip more times than all those burgers that he's eating. Is that standard practice with Dan?
