The networks care about their companys business they dont give 2 shts about fan stuff , they care about money and how much can they get out of the pie and the pie to them is huge , its painfully obvious HBO dont want to bet on Manny winning , while Showtime is happy to bet on Floyd winning , there is your problem , HBO doesnt want to do this the same way they did Lewis Tyson because this time they got the projected loser , that is worth huge money to them over the long haul .

Thank you for the logical answer. Its funny that you're the only Floyd fan that can offer me a more educated reply than "Manny is scared of Floyd doe",yet you get a ****load of hate on here.

Go look at Dan Rafael's twitter. The guy is the most pro Top Rank "journalist" in boxing. He just exposed Arum's lie. So Rick Reeno and Dan Rafael are risking their careers to protect Floyd and pretending to talk the networks. Sure. Ronnie TOP RANK Nathanielz whatever even did the same a few days ago. Yeah the HBO President said no problems, but did he say they had a deal and agreement? You are a clear hater, I am done responding to you. Good luck in life, be more positive and stop hating. Maybe you'll see reality and not the fake truths you create to make yourself feel better.

How is Dan risking his career? He would only be risking his career if he made the story up.

All he is doing is reporting what an anonymous source told him. He doesn't even have to believe it, he just needs hits, because thats his job.

Hmmmm lets see, what has more credibility? The President of HBO publicly saying something, or what some bum sniffing anonymous source who can lie and not get in trouble saying something.

Your Floyd delusion is making you ignore the truth that is right in front of you. You are needlessly complicating a simple matter. The networks have agreed. What Floyds anonymous sources say, makes no difference.

HBO already confirmed what Arum said. That HBO is finished negotiating with SHO, why are you Floyd chimps always ignoring the important information?

President of HBO already confirmed, it is Floyd holding up the fight. And any smart person trusts the HBO prez over anonymous sources who are just doing damage control for Floyd.

Arum is the one that went to Moonves, he is the biggest reason this fight will happen. All the credit goes to Arum.

Did the savage women beater got to Moonves and kickstart all this? NO. Get a hold of yourselves Floyd chimps.

You Manny won tons are fried more than your food counterparts... Fat Dan exposed Arum's lies and Fat Dan doesn't really like Floyd you moron. How much does Top Rank or Team Pacquiao pay you won tons?

So while we wait y'all go TELL A FRIEND to download Shots ASAP so I can keep you all updated on the Mayweather vs. Pacquiao fight, that we are trying to make happen or follow @fighthype on here, IG, Twitter & Facebook or visit for the best Boxing & MMA updates.

Source that two HBO execs said this? This is just anonymous source BS that Floyd does all the time.

Who cares what two HBO execs supposedly said. The President of HBO already confirmed inter-network negotiations are over. Its between Pac and Floyd now.

You Floyd chumps are obsessed with blaming the problems on everyone and anyone but Floyd. The HBO Prez said, no network problems. Why you ignore the important info and look at the BS? If Pac and Floyd agree, you really think the networks will stand in the way. No way, in hell.

You know I am 100% right.

...and then there's those of us who refused to accept the truth when it's abundantly clear. You're probably one of those "Palin 2016" supporters as well.

[Heavyfist]

Pathetic Floyd chumps.

Why obsess over what Arum said when the HBO President said it too. Is the Prez lying too? Why ignore this?

Fat Dan reporting something an anonymous low life told him = proving the President of HBO is lying.

LMFAO! The denial and delusion is incredible. Fat Dan didn't prove shlt. All he did was report on a source from Floyd. If this source is telling the truth, then why anonymous? Why hide? I know. Because he is lying.

Why doesn't Showtime publicly say there isn't a deal? Showtime has remained silent, because the President of HBO was telling the truth.

Just filed story to on latest @FloydMayweather @MannyPacquiao update. TV official tells me broadcast deal not final.

Not done, but Thursday talks paused with James Brown as host, Jim Lampley doing play-by-play, Al Bernstein as lead analyst.

Lance Pugmire @latimespugmire · 7m 7 minutes ago
The talks broke with Jim Gray and Max Kellerman assigned to fighter interviews. Again, not final, but the plan as of now...

Lance Pugmire @latimespugmire · 6m 6 minutes ago
As one individual in the broadcast said, "There's not a fight yet, is there?"
