    I have said this from the beginning: The fight will take place in September or October.

    Freddie Roach has said publicly that he did not want the fight to take place in March. Not enough time to train for Mayweather. Arum goes to Pac to make it look like he wanted the fight as soon as possible. Knowing all along that the fight would not happen in March, Arum goes through the charade of negotiations. At the same time he constantly leaks crap to the press than can only hurt negotiations that are quickly printed by the so-called journalists like the one who wrote this article.

    This post is not anti-Pac. This post is not favouring Floyd. This post is about Arum orchestrating all of this from the outset and all of the Pac-fans not realizing that they are being taken for a ride from an old promoter who is very good at what he does. Because of the dislike that Pac-fans already have for Floyd, it was an easy sell. Arum has played on your sense of machismo and convinced you that that Floyd (a fighter with over 120 fights-amatuer and pro) is "scared" and "gay". Really?!?

    Boxing is a business, and any business is about making money. Arum has wanted the extra revenue that a Pac-Foreman fight would generate all along. He has used forums like boxingscene as market research to see if Pac-fans would actually buy a fight other than Pac-Floyd, and when it became apparent that Pac-fans would, he figured why not? Even if Pac should somehow lose to Foreman, it would be unlikely to be by knockout, and he would be forgiven because of the size difference; so much like when Morales lost to Raheem, Arum would just go ahead with the fight anyway and pretend the previous result never happened.

    If boxing fans had acted as conscientious consumers and refused to accept any other fight than Pac-Floyd, I guarantee that is what we would be seeing. However, it is easier to talk trash and call the other fighter names as though they are still in grade-school.

    Pac is not afraid of Floyd. Floyd is not afraid of Pac. Arum is selling you this garbage and you are buying it. Boxing fans: Please think for yourselves!...or is it easier to call a professional fighter "gay" and a "coward" because a promoter told you so?

    Sorry for the length of this post.
    A well written post. If only there were more sensible posters.

        Floyd is definitely afraid.

          If that's true... Then that's Vintage Mayweather at his best... The guy should just retire.

            Im starting to think Manny is on something and I never really thought that way before this official , fight is off , deep down thinking he was clean and the fight would go on , this is very su****ious if you ask me .
            Come to think of it - Manny has been greatly and very publicly accused of this roid use for this fight. ASSUMING all these accusations were true, Do you think he and his team will actually use roids/peds for this fight even after all the accusations even for the 30 or 24 days cut off? Will he and his team will risk even for that 24 day cut-off? I don't think so. Pacquiao team counter-offered so that the fight will go on, they like to fight. Who does not want to fight now?

              Floyd did not want the fight in the beginning, this was all face saving posturing and now he will be broke, sued, and without any means of income to pay the lawsuit......dadadadadamn!!!

                For the mayweather fans.....

                For all of you MAYWEATHER fans......TURN YOUR BACK ON HIM WHILE YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE!!! This was a ploy on his part from the beginning. He had it all planned out like TYSON did in the rematch with HOLYFIELD. His plan was to cheat if HOLY could take his punches early and that's exactly what he did. MAYWEATHER had a similiar MOTIVE for sure. He knows that MANNY has a GOOD shot at beating him, so he pulled the whole "OLYMPIC STYLE DRUG TESTING" stunt to make it seem like he's smarter than he REALLY is. Now look who's getting sued and rightfully so!!! IDIOT!!! He isn't on the level of a LEONARD, WHITAKER, CHAVEZ, CAMACHO, TRINIDAD, DE LA HOYA, MOSLEY, etc.....because he REFUSES to fight the best. Now stop defending him when he is clearly wrong for ****ING up the most lucrative fight in boxing history. I didn't say the best, I said the most LUCRATIVE.
