    Thats not the point, NO ONE thinks this is Pacquiao's fault.
    Not even the most hardcore Floyd fan.

    It couldn't be Pacs fault if we wanted it to be, I haven't seen a promoter with so much control over a fighters career since Mike Tyson back in the 90's with Don King.

    If Arum wanted to force Pac to fight at HW he could.

    No one blames Pac, as they shouldn't.

      Floyd is waiting til the last minute where Pac has no choice but to move on, and than blame him for pulling out. It's a calculated move, Floyd doesn't want this fight.

      Like I've been saying for 6 yrs this fight is not happening! Floyd hates Bob so much, he doesn't want Arum making any money off him. This is a Floyd Arum issue and it always will be!!!
      i dont think this is the REAL reason why. i mean how can bob make money off of floyd? isnt floyd making money off of bob too if this fight happens? the whole floyd wont do business with bob is just a sorry excuse.

      i do believe with arum in the way, floyd wont be able to control manny like he wanted, and i think this is one of the reason why this fight hasnt happen yet. floyd wants total control over manny.

        Article is so innaccurate and outdated

        Networks have agreed. Where did he get otherwise?

        Fight gets announced soon

          It's PRINCIPALS, not PRINCIPLES. It means the main subjects or people. Why do people confuse the two?

            HBO openly said the problem is Floyd and Pac haven't come to terms. According to Pac he has agreed to everything proposed by Floyd. According to Floyd? He is vacationing. LOL.

            Floyd is so dumb and unaware that he doesn't realise he is exposing the fact he is trying to make the fight impossible/difficult. He thinks he is looking cool, but that is exactly what a dumb person like Floyd would think.

            There is no controversy. There is what the small number of minimum wage Floyd chimps think, and there is everyone else. Floyd chimps don't care that Mayweather is a known compulsive liar. Everyone else knows Pacquiao is an honorable person who has no history of lying about such things.

            Everyone knows Floyd is ducking the fight like he has been for 5 years. Who cares what some low life Floyd chimps think?
            Ask his wife, Jinkee, about that.

              He came clean to his wife and they've moved on so what's your point?

                Lol I bet if Arum wasn't ***ish we wouldn't have all these idiots blaming him, he's one of the best promoters of all time, probably the best.

                    No I just think there is an element of anti-Semitism with the excessive Arum blame. He's not mother Teresa but he's clearly trying to make the fight.

                      Exactly. I have to think either this is part of the build up or he's doing his best to sabotage the fight. I had to chuckle to myself when I read this article.
