    Notice that once Pacquiao and Koncz had a chance to speak directly with Mayweather and have their own line of communication with him, they've kept relatively quiet and haven't been attacking Mayweather as they had before?
    The thing that I do know is Arum has no power here, if the fight doesn't get done nobody can blame him, its all up to Floyd everyone is waiting on his next move.

    HBO and Koncz said if the fight doesn't happen its up to the fighters/principals not the networks, Showtime and Espinoza make no comment because Floyd is their guy and if they put the onus on him it looks bad so they are just staying silent.

    Floyd is the man with the key to the fight, if he wants to fight he will, if he doesn't he won't.

    Remember Floyd is the boss per his own words so its all up to him and always has been.

        You just backed up everything I said. So we must be over zealous together. Lol. I'm not trying to convince a hater of anything. None of those links that he posted were proof of anything. The weed, the domestic violence, the kid, Nelly are all irrelevant to boxing and none of it shows any proof of him lying about anything having to do with making the fight. These dudes know what they're doing. The only reason that they are accusing Mayweather of being a liar is because Bob Arum has been getting caught in a lot of lies lately. Its a deflection tactic and its only done out of pure DESPERATION. The truth is Pacquiao is the one that has been ducking the fight the entire time. HBO and Bob Arum are trying to pull a fast one and get away with impeding this fight from happening and then blaming Mayweather for it. Its false and I'm going to speak out against it when I post comments.

          Again...You said, " i dont care if Jack Johnson slept with a teenager." Meaning ...you dont care. It doesnt bother you. That shlt bothers me. You said NOTHING about if he was guilty or not!

              Arum has no power? He has plenty of power- he controls Pacquiao and has plenty of say with HBO. If the fight does fall through, I dont know if he would be at fault but he easily could be.

              I can see how you think its all on Mayweather and its definitely plausible that's the case but in no way can you say that for certain based mostly off Arum's words.

                  Extreme feminism?...What like adding another year to a decade because you are that much of a gay ass fanboy that you got furiously angry and felt you had to do something when someone other than floyd won fighter of the decade? I dunno about feminism, but that ish is gay as fook!

                    Seems simple to me....Pacquiao has accepted 60/40 split in favour of Mayweather; HBO should accept 60/40 split on all broadcasting in favour of Showtime
