    Floyd Mayweather is a frightened, intimidated lil street kid trapped in the body of a 37 year old gay man.

    I can assure you that Pacquiao is not frightened by Mayweather anymore than Mayweather is frightened of Pacquiao.

    who gives a ****. everyone knows the truth and that is both of these guys are elite boxers and stands above the rest of their generation. Pac can say whatever he wants (and floyd the same). They'll both be ready for the fight and will cut no corners in training. Pac is just saying this ****. He knows he's going in with an elite fighter and same with Floyd.

    If you actually believe Floyd is clean then your deluded. He has a history that's just as questionable as Pac's. The guy uses anesthetics on his hands and you find that acceptable :patsch

    Bob Arum: Deal close on megafight


    The megafight that the boxing world has been clamoring for between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. should be finalized in "the next couple days," Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told the New York Post.

    The sides have been negotiating what will certainly be the richest fight in boxing history, but no deal has been struck yet. The two fighters met privately for more than an hour on Tuesday in Miami.

    "Everybody is doing the right thing," Arum told the Post on Friday. "We're looking to complete the paperwork. Everything is moving in the right direction. Hopefully, the next couple of days it will get done."

    One of the issues is that Time Warner/HBO, which has a contract with Pacquiao, and CBS/Showtime, which has Mayweather under contract, need to hammer out terms for a joint pay-per-view telecast, which they did once before for the 2002 fight between then-heavyweight world champion Lennox Lewis and former champ Mike Tyson. They have been negotiating the terms.

    "I think it helped a lot because we were all putting papers together, and there was still a question as to whether Floyd really wanted to do the fight or not," Arum told the Post of the Miami meeting. "Based on the meeting with Pacquiao in the hotel suite, Manny and [Pacquiao adviser] Michael Koncz were convinced Floyd absolutely wants to do the fight."

    Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KOs), the 36-year-old Filipino legend, and Arum have repeatedly said they have agreed to all of the terms outlined by Mayweather (47-0, 26 KOs), who turns 38 in February, during talks with CBS CEO Leslie Moonves, who has served as the go-between on behalf of Mayweather and his adviser, Al Haymon.

    Mayweather has said he intends to fight May 2 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, be it against Pacquiao or somebody else.

    Mayweather-Pacquiao deal done ‘in next couple days’

    By George Willis

    Top Rank promoter Bob Arum expects negotiations on a mega-fight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather to be finalized in “the next couple days,” the strongest indication the much-anticipated bout finally will become a reality.

    “Everybody is doing the right thing,” Arum told The Post on Friday. “We’re looking to complete the paperwork. Everything is moving in the right direction. Hopefully, the next couple of days it will get done.”

    All major points have been agreed to, according to sources close to the negotiations. The remaining issues concern network involvement. Mayweather has an exclusive agreement with Showtime, while Pacquiao is tied to HBO. Sources at both networks have said they won’t stand in the way of what will be the richest fight in boxing history.

    “The issues are being narrowed down to extraordinarily small points,” Arum said. “I’m optimistic it will all be put together in the next couple of days.”

    Speculation on an impending agreement grew when the two boxers met face to face at a Heat game in Miami this week and later spent an hour in Pacquiao’s hotel suite discussing the proposed bout.

    “I think it helped a lot because we were all putting papers together, and there was still a question as to whether Floyd really wanted to do the fight or not,” Arum said. “Based on the meeting with Pacquiao in the hotel suite, Manny and [Pacquiao adviser] Michael Koncz were convinced Floyd absolutely wants to do the fight.”

    The pay-per-view bout is tentatively scheduled for May 2 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas and expected to generate somewhere between $250 million and $300 million. A showdown between the two welterweights was first negotiated in 2009, but the two sides reached an impasse over drug testing procedures. Since then, egos, money and personality clashes have derailed any attempts to match the fighters.

    But after defeating Long Island longshot Chris Algieri in November in Macau, Pacquiao publicly challenged Mayweather, saying, “I think it’s time to make that fight happen. The fans really deserve that fight.”

    Pacquiao and Mayweather have been the best fighters of their era. Mayweather, unbeaten in 47 bouts with 26 knockouts, is considered the pound-for-pound king, while Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KOs) has captured titles in eight different weight classes.

    A Mayweather-Pacquiao bout seemed to lose some appeal when Pacquiao was knocked out by Juan Manuel Marquez in December 2012. But the Filipino congressman has restored his standing as one of the sport’s elite fighters with recent wins over Brandon Rios, Timothy Bradley and Algieri.

    Arum had hoped Mayweather-Pacquiao would take place in a larger venue than the MGM Grand, where tickets figure to be hard to get even for the wealthy.

    “To me it doesn’t do boxing justice being in a small arena like that,” Arum said. “But if that’s what it takes to make the fight, that’s what we’ll do.”
