Think from Arum's perspective. What's the common theme?
Oh ok.
But this is a humongous fight that will break all records. He worked with Don King before, this fight makes him more money than Manny's next 3 or 4 final fights combined.

So was the Floyd-Oscar fight and he admitted he wasn't interested because, as big as the fight was, he wouldn't make as much as he would from an in-house fight.
I hope this is true. If I'm Manny I'm wondering why Bob would suggest another date for the fight knowing the financial benefits of staging a fight that weekend, just so he can maximize revenue on a fight not involving Manny.
I'm tempted to think this is nothing more than a smokescreen but I remain optimistic. I really want to see this fight badly.
