The more Espinoza talks the more he seems like a Mayweather pr guy. He's a friggin boxing exec for a major network, how many execs take to Twitter & the media constantly? I haven't seen many positive things from this guy other than shooting down reports of the fight. Here's an idea, finish this mysterious contract you keep shooting down.Comment

Earlier, Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum denied reports of a "done deal" for a welterweight mega-fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao, which is targeted for May 2nd at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas.
Arum, who promotes Pacquiao, told the Las Vegas Review Journal - “I’m very optimistic. We’re waiting to hear from Floyd. But from everyone’s perspective, it needs to get resolved this week. You have to start planning things, and there’s a lot that has to be done.”

****ing Arum and Manny are liars. Mayweather is dying to make this fight to happen and letting Manny to announce it once Manny agreed and sign the damn contract. Yeah I agree with you.Comment

Both these guys are way past prime anyway. Manny hasn't knocked anyone out in years and Floyd struggled with Maidana for ***s sake. Forget this fight I don't care if it don't happen at this point.Comment

Yeah Espinoza, tell us lies about Floyd really dying to make this fight a reality. Tell us more lies about Mayweather already read and sign the contract and he'll let Manny announce it during the NBA all star game.Comment

Floyd who is that Mr. Espinoza? is that your Boss? you said before that you are a Boss why is it that all decision is coming from Mr. Espinoza? I think he is your Boss.Comment

Obviously he's a puppet of Haymon. Haymon pulling all the strings to stall the negotiations. HBO and Arum are doing everything they could to make the fight a done deal, but I'm assuming Espinoza and TMT keep moving the goal post. If Mayweather want this fight to happen he'll make it happen since, according to him he is his own boss. It's obvious, he don't want none of the PAC MAN.Comment

Seems like Espinoza and mayweather are more focusing on a smear campaign and calling pacquiao and arum liars rather than what they should be doing is finalizing that contract. Pacquiao never even said there was a contract. He said he's still waiting on one. Espinoza is pathetic, he can't figure out how to convince Floyd to fight and is just stalling #fight pacquiao #sign the contractComment
