    Let me also add so you don't think they aren't freaking out at showtime? I mean if Floyd ducks Manny they are on the hook for his PPV failures that are inevitable. I mean you're talking about losses in the tens of millions of dollars. Last thing, that is why you have the CEO of CBS involved, they're on the brink of disaster.

      Of course it's not going to be against Pacquiao, Floyd would need a pair of balls to make that to happen.

        If they could, why even bring up that point? They wouldn't be on the hook for the 65 mill then. I can't find the Rafeal post..., if someone has twitter they can tweet him you will get conformation i'm sure of it.

          It wasn't any evidence that Showtime coudn't decide to back out... Dan could of just been saying that is the money Floyd has coming to him, while leaving out the "unless" showtime decides to back out.
          I've seen his direct post where he says Showtime has no opt outs; well except in floyd losing, but floyd can opt out after each fight if he chooses. I can't find it tho.

            I doubt any of us will ever know the truth or have inside information on all the negotiations/talks over the years.

            unfortunately for Floyd all the blame will fall on him if the fight doesn't happen. Perhaps he is at fault and maybe he only deserves some of it.

              There is no way, on God's green earth, that a company like Showtime would hand that contract to Will Smith, let alone Floyd Mayweather. None. Zero. Zilch. And if Dan said that then Bob Arum probably told him that.

                  What do I look like, a kid? I can't prove something that doesn't exist.

                    so sick of this crap, why hasn't Manny been able to become a mandatory for one of Floyd's belts. With 5 years having gone by, he'd have had to vacate nearly all of them by now?
                    Truly abysmal, the state of boxing politics, a fair few of them just need to f right off, forever

                      I deleted somethings. I'll stick to just this point. You shouldn't post on things you have no earthly idea. If you are sooo sure it doesn't exist put all your points on it, if not don't open your mouth or type or w/e. You can easily give me a deadline of a week or so to prove it exists, if i can't you win. But i will i promise you that. Taking your points and proving you absolutely wrong is just a chance i wouldn't pass up.
