[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Stephen Espinoza, head of Showtime Sports, spoke to BoxingScene.com to set the record straight regarding a series of stories that were widely circulated on Friday.

The first story appeared in the New York Post, where Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum, who promotes Manny Pacquiao, told the paper that a deal might be finalized in the "next couple of days" for May 2nd mega-fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr.

You'd think all these idiots would stick to one story. They sound dumb as ****. And the ****ed up thing is I'm not even looking for this ****. I just get bombarded with a bunch of Bull****. It's like someone coming up to you and ****n with you for no reason.

ok,**** espinoza. All he ever brings is bad news and delays. Id rather hear bob arum and his bull**** lies. At least those make it seem like the fight is actually making some sort of ****ing progress.

***1610;**** off espinoza, you're one of the flowmos who is always negative and who dont want the fight to happen, fuccking hymen puppet

Take four snakes, starve them, throw them all together in a pit, and watch them go at it. That's what I envision negotiations for this fight. You have four business egos involved excluding both fighters. Arum is going to want to make it look like he's in control of the situation although all bob is doing is talking to Moonves while Todd is the actual one involved. Espinoza is trying to downplay everything "No,seriously people I didn't slither out of bed this morning. Honestly swear on my mothers third cousin from mars i'm still in bed". HBO is going to want its nut and is going to play the "we have more subscribers game", and then you have Al trying to monetize everything for this fight including the air people in the arena are going to consume. By the time this fight gets made it'll cost you $150 for the ppv, $25 per each eye ball you watch it with, and $8 for being permitted to drink your own beer on the couch.

Haha I knew it was too good to be true. And since the early news article was from Arum, I knew it was mostly bs. Man greed is a ***** man. If you figured Mayweather was greedy for wanting more money than Pacquiao(I don't because I think he deserves it), the ****ing networks are going to let their greed stop this fight from happening. I'm waiting for an official announcement. ****ing TMZ. I should've known.

Ppl just need to wait til the fight is officially announced. Stop stressing out over the same ******ity. It's old already.
