    It doesn't matter what Floyd and Manny talked about on the phone. Arum refused to enter into negotiations by not answering or returning Shaefer's phone calls to start negotiations. "Why is Shaefer calling me?" Bob Arum.

    All the money talk along with everything else could have been worked out in those negotiations.

    Also Gander Arum is the same guy who refused to negotiate a deal for the biggest fight in boxing on record which was Oscar vs Floyd so he has refused before you moron.

    So offering someone a career high payday is pricing yourself out?Some bull**** here from the Pacquiao fans.If they fight at 50/50 and sell 2million ppv buys,they will get around 45mill each.Seen as this fight has lost its lustre,I dont see it doing that many ppv's so Floyds offer is pretty ****ing generous.
    Arum has got to the stage where he doesn't even lie about Floyd not wanting the fight but now says they have other plans.

    First off, how is PBF going to be ready for a September fight and Sergio who? What is so great about Sergio and some thinking he will beat PBF when he struggled with two European fighters. Sergio will just get countered and that haymaker of his will not due him any justice.

    Pac is going to win via KO like Hatton, but much later in the rounds.

    Same way Arum just said the fight most likely won't happen this year but he came on here stating it's Floyd's fault.

    ----Arum explained another reason, in addition to compensation, why the fight won’t happen per Mayweather’s demands. “May 5 is impossible,” he said. “We couldn’t get the right cable arrangements by then, or complete the outdoor stadium we are building with a temporary seating capacity of around 45,000. We would lose 30 to 40 million dollars of revenue, and that’s crazy.”----

    But Floyd pricing himself out killed the fight. :nut

    yeah if you avoid someone long enough you will find enough faults to not fight him as opposed to when he was ****ing everyone up and the excuse back then was he was too big.... yada yada yada....form the excuse as you see fit per circumstance
