If Floyd came out and said he agreed to terms like Manny publically, the networks would get that deal done in 3 seconds IMHO.

Its clearly Floyds fault this fight is not happening. The reports where negotiations, followed by rematch clause, followed by counteroffer from Floyds side, Pacquiao signs, waits for Floyd then everything gets quiet. The decision was made easier by having the talks stall with Canelo vs Cotto. That was the lifeline for this fight.

The hang-up now, according to an official close to the negotiation but not authorized to speak publicly, is how Showtime (which televises Mayweather fights on pay-per-view) and HBO (which broadcasts Pacquiao bouts) can agree to broadcast the fight jointly.
Another official said CBS Chairman Leslie Moonves and HBO Chairman Richard Plepler are expected to be involved in talks this week to hammer out the deal.
