Why does Floyd won't step up against Pacquiao?

Who gives a ****?
(This fight is R.I.P. past it's due date... it is a FARCE now)

True's don't give a "F" about this fight.
Mayweather beats Pacquaio in a boring ass decision 9 outta 10 x's.

 

Uhhh shut the **** up lol. Arum jumped on the rematch the second the decision was called. What's a playa 2 do when one ***** don't wanna tango?:deal

 

this guy must have been in a coma for a while

 

Clearly. Anyway catch up TS.

Goldenboy is trying to get negotiations started. But someone wont come to the table.

Ellerbe also informed Golden Boy promoter Richard Schaefer, who does not have a contract with Mayweather but has promoted his last five bouts, of the plan.

"I'm very excited that the sport's biggest pay-per-view star is going to be back on May 5," Schaefer told ESPN.com. "We have informed the pay-per-view industry and I have the arena on hold. I'm excited to continue my relationship with Floyd and his team. It's always fun to work with Floyd."

But Mayweather (42-0, 26 KOs), who turns 35 in February, announced last week that he will make the first defense of the WBC welterweight belt he won in September by stopping Victor Ortiz (29-3-2, 22 KOs) against an opponent to be determined on May 5 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Schaefer wants that "opponent" be Pacquiao.

"I think that Floyd Mayweather has made it very clear that he wants the big fights, and that he wants the biggest possible opponent. By that, I think that everybody knows that he means that the biggest possible opponent means that you've got to start from the top, and that's obviously a Mayweather-Pacquiao fight," said Schaefer.

"But that's assuming that Bob Arum wants to get the fight done. We're not going to be talking about that this week. This week, of course, the focus is going to be on Pacquiao's next fight with Juan Manuel Marquez. But after that, there will be plenty of time to talk about that match up between Mayweather and Pacquiao."

Schaefer said the notification came in an email from retired federal judge Daniel Weinstein, the mediator who has worked closely with the sides to settle numerous lawsuits and issues in recent years.

"I am sick and tired of Bob Arum twisting the truth. It's another case of 'yesterday I was lying, today I'm telling the truth,' " Schaefer said, invoking Arum's most famous quote. "The truth of the matter is that we received this afternoon an email from retired federal judge Daniel Weinstein, who has informed us that Top Rank is pursuing a rematch with Marquez and, therefore, is not interested in immediate talks for a possible Mayweather-Pacquiao fight. This is obviously as clear as it can be that they have no intentions of making a Mayweather-Pacquiao fight. Therefore, Floyd Mayweather will have no other choice than to move on and identify and lock in another opponent for his ring return on May 5."

"He's the one who's stopping it from happening," De La Hoya said. "Bob Arum doesn't want to see the fight happen."

So what will it take to finally make the most anticipated boxing fight a reality?

"For Bob Arum to say, 'OK, we want the fight,'" De La Hoya said. "Our side, meaning Golden Boy and Floyd Mayweather, he wants the fight, we want the fight. Mayweather has his date for the fifth of May next year. He wants the biggest fight out there. He wants Pacquiao, there's no doubt about that. It would be very unfortunate if this fight could not be made because of Bob Arum."

Leonard Ellerbe 'confident' that Manny Pacquiao will force promoter Bob Arum to negotiate with Floyd Mayweather

"I think Manny Pacquiao is going to step up and say, 'I want to fight Floyd Mayweather,'" Ellerbe said. "He is an honorable guy, his country admires him, and I think he'll step up. Otherwise, he'll disappoint his own fans, and I don't think he'll do that.

"In my opinion, the fighter needs to step up and tell the promoter, 'This is what I really want to do,' if it's really what he wants to do. I know what the fans want. I truly believe Manny Pacquiao will step up and make the fight happen. At the end of the day, the fighter should have the say-so on who he gets in the ring with."

Take yo a** to sleep. You sound tired and out of your mind

 

If this fight is going to happen in May, it will at least sell 2.7-2.9 Million PPVs!

Thats the only "reason" Floyd "ducked" Pacquaio.

 

:rofl:rofl:nut

 

Pac's performance against JMM should be enough to have Floyd begging for the fight to be made. On paper it looks like an easy W for Floyd.

 

go drink kool-aid and eat watermelons

 

man **** off with that

 

whats wrong with that

 

hey thats a good post with the quotes, in chronological order, showing Floyd wants this fight.
