I don't negotiate through the media doe. I'm above that doe.

Stop. Offered him $40M plus big upside and he passed. He doesn***39;t want it. ": "

Talking about sensitive negotiations hurts the process more than it helps. Consider that when you observe who talks & who doesn***39;t.

I hate when people say this fight is complicated to work out... it's really not..someone is holding it up and seems to be Floyd as usual... HBO/Showtime isn't complicated either..it's just greed by all parties...

The alternatives are what? Mayweather-Khan and Pacquiao-Vargas? I'm going to say if these greedy pos don't give us Pac-Mayweather, then we should all boycott PPV period... Nobody should buy boxing PPV... believe me these Networks will never let something like this happen again and will have to give the fans great telecasts to win them back...

It's definitely time for a boxing boycott...if Floyd doesn't sign the deal then boycott him...HBO/Showtime stop the fight..boycott them.. we need to know who is responsible for the fight not happening and that entity must be boycotted...

HBO has all the leverage

SHO didn't have a single fight do over 1 million views

Meanwhile HBO 10 fights do 1 mill+ including Postol vs Aydin

Why would he do that? if they want to keep it out the media, guess you dont want this fight either...

You want arum to shut up, I want Haymon to speak out.

You say why would Haymon do that?

I say why would arum do that?

You say "guess you don't want this fight either

I say you don't the fight and where did you get the idea that I don't want the fight from the reply I made "Haymon speak the hell up"

Finally I say you need professional help

So basically HBO and Showtime have to work their situation out on how the fight is going to be aired.. I can understand that.

Umm yeah and that other little Tiny situation (no pun intended) of FLOYD ACTUALLY AGREEING TO HIS OWN TERMS!

How does HBo have all the leverage Check Hooks, when shotime has the better fighter - i dont see shotime being reluctant as to who gets the replay rights, bc they are confident TBE will win seems HBO doesnt believe pac will win

How can he sign when they have t finished working out the details?
