    There’s an old saying that, “Everyone has a bullet with their name on it.” This saying is usually said to remind us that none of us are invincible, and there just may be that one person out there that just might have our number. Regardless of how good you are at a particular skill or craft, there could be someone out there that just may be better on a particular occasion. Could Pacquiao be that bullet with Floyd Mayweather’s name on it?

    It’s easy to look at both men’s recent performances over the last couple of years and say that Mayweather should beat Pacquiao, and he would most certainly be favored to do so at the sportsbooks. But, maybe Floyd Mayweather knows something that we don’t. There just may be something about Pacquiao and his style that troubles him. Of course he isn’t going to publicly admit that but now that Pacquiao has shown some vulnerability in recent years, it would seem like it would be the perfect time to strike while the iron is hot. Regardless of what anyone says about the potential fight having lost its luster and that it should have happened years ago, it is still the biggest money fight out there that boxing has to offer.

    There have been many excuses made by both men as to why this fight hasn’t happened yet, but it seems as though Pacquiao has pretty much given in to all of Floyd’s demands and has even undergone Olympic style drug testing in his last fight, so that would seem like a non issue at this point. I’m really not buying into the latest excuse of Floyd not wanting to do business with Bob Arum as the reason why the fight can’t happen. There’s only one thing that I believe Floyd cares about more than money and that’s protecting his undefeated record. In my own humble opinion the Arum excuse is just a smokescreen.

    Arum doesn't think so..nor does his Pinoy slave.

    If Arum had a fighter he REALLY felt could beat Mayweather he'd move heaven and earth to get Floyd in the ring....not make excuses like building a fantasy outdoor stadium.

    Manny Pacquiao sent a clear message to Floyd Mayweather. If he wants a fight without having to deal with Top Rank Promotions boss Bob Arum, he will have to wait until 2015.

    In a telephone interview with Philboxing’s Eddie Alinea, Pacquiao clarified that a fight against Mayweather is not possible this year without Arum’s blessing.

    “Floyd has also been saying, he will only fight me if I separate from Top Rank and Bob Arum. That’s impossible because my contract is valid until the end of this year,” Pacquiao explained in Filipino. “If my contract is not renewed, we can only talk about a possible fight next year.”

    The eight division world champion also addressed the rumors that the mega-fight is set to September.

    “If it was already a done deal, is it possible for me not to know about it? I know nothing about the reports in the newspapers,” Pacquiao said. He also denied that he will be flying to the United States to meet with Mayweather. “I have no plan to go to the U.S. to talk to Floyd; that’s also not true,” he added.
    “I have been saying this over and over again, I am not afraid to fight anybody, but if somebody doesn’t want to fight me, same here. I, too, won’t face him who doesn’t want to face me,” Pacquiao shared. “Floyd himself has been telling the whole world, he doesn’t want to fight me. The feeling is mutual. But if he finally decides that he wants to face me, I’m okay with it.”

    The two fighters still have no opponents for their upcoming battles. Pacquiao is penciled to fight in Las Vegas on April while Mayweather will fight in May.
