Comments Thread For: HBO on Mayweather-Pacquiao: We Stand Ready To Go!

[[T][B][E]]

What HBO is saying is that the issue is not them and they are ready to go. Since they are ready to go, the principles are Floyd and Manny. Since Manny has agreed to the initial demands, it means that Floyd is still not in agreement with something.

IMdazed this is type **** that comes out of misleading bulshlt statements from HBO

hbo doesn't say anything about an agreement with showtime

I dont think it will exactly mess up negotiations. Everyone involved besides them has spoken up and its only fair for them to defend themselves as well.

I do question their motives. Was it just to defend themselves or a preemptive move to shift blame elsewhere?

And thats the messed up part. Now it start the whole line of inquiries.
Should they be open and transparent sure... About a week ago, or after the fight is announced or failed.
To do it now just invites disaster. Cause you know somebody is going to want to respond to this response.

The fight is not going to happen on HBO

it was evidently somewhat of a response to david mayo's article. in it, david inferred that pac/arum should lean on HBO to make the fight. david's article is implying HBO is reluctant to make the fight.

The whole story here was this...

(HBO)
"We are not an impediment to this fight,” the network has stated through its press office. “We stand ready to go. The principals need to agree to terms and come to a deal.

The rest was just BS filler, that they put in every Pac/Floyd story.

Wasnt there an article a few days ago saying TR lawyers have an issue now and Arum saying there are alot if issues?

I still say its Arum but we will see if theres an answer

**** are you talking about. 1. I am a Floyd fan and 2. I have not thought this fight any closer to happen then in 2009.
My whole message is everybody shut the **** up while the only people who need to do the talk, talk to each other with out the media and the pressure to get the fight done. I want this fight and for just a moment there it looked like everyone was trying something new to get us closer to this fight.

My bad dude. I was agreeing with your response to I'm my own boss. The 2nd quote didn't get in on the multi quote. I'm on the tablet.

People no need to debate with Floyd groupies. The whole world outside boxingscene knows it's Floyd who doesn't want to fight.
