    Canelo will be fighting on regular HBO whether it's Kirkland or Clottey. They'll probably put on a strong co-main too, that will eat into the Sho figures.

    Pac will fight the Provo-Matthysse winner in June, he is good.

    When did Mayweather have a 750,000 fight? Do you have a source for that?

      Pac will fight the Provo-Matthysse winner in June, it won't be Vargas, he doesn't need Floyd or Khan, he is good whatever happens.
      you think there will be enough time between Matts/provo for the winner to be able to fight in June? isn't the fight March 28th?

      that's a quick turnaround.

          Arum says if the fight doesn't happen, Pacquiao's next date is May 30.

            But you're to simple to understand the relevance of that.
            And you believe the bold cause a known liar in Bob Arum said so. WTF?

            Yes we all know Floyd is a known liar also.

            Point being you shouldn't believe nothing said until its announced the fight is done by way of international commercial or both sides come out and say they are fighting different opponents.

              The top guy is watching now, Espinoza can't get away with any more of his b/s.
              Pac wont fight a puncher, have you seen who hes faced since JMM put him to sleep? rios, algieri, bradley......He doesnt face punchers

                    From FightHype:

                    FightHype has been advised that contrary to some reports, a deal between the two networks is actually close to being reached, and from what we've been led to believe, there's virtually no issues left to be resolved between the two fighters, which is what Arum himself first told us three weeks ago when he boldly proclaimed, "we've agreed to everything, period!"

                    I suppose that's a good sign for those of us who actually want the fight
