    The contracts I've negotiated are probably 1000 times smaller than this one. And mine typically take about 6 weeks to finalize. There are sooo many other things that need to be decided on for negotiations of this magnitude, things we'd never think of.

    I agree with you that reports indicate those big rocks have been taken care of, so the small rocks should fall into place, but it does take time.

    The interesting thing is when they asked Floyd about manny agreeing to the terms he never said he did not agree rather he said he is not his own boss which also leads me to believe pac did indeed agree.

    I do believe team pac is telling the truth when they said they agreed but not everything sure they agreed to the main points you listed but there are many other little points as well that need to be taken to consideration. What makes me believe them is that no one from floyds side said they never agreed to those terms like I said before even showtimes Stephen said we are 3/4 way there.

    Yep :good. Pac always get's an out. One thing though is Pacquiao is sort of a peoples champ and has really tried to be fan friendly and the "good guy." Mayweather chose years ago to take the villain role. It was smart from a marketing position, but the side effect is a ton of people will hate on him and blame him. Comes with the role he chose.

    both sides were already talking 4 months before pac fought algieri.

    duckdacious was already making threads that the fight would be announced last christmas.

    negotiated for more for the full months of december and january. no superbowl announcement.

    how much longer should it take?? 1, 2, 6 more months??

    I agree also Team pac have really done a number on mayweather in terms of pr its so bad for mayweather now even if pac was at fault they would still blame mayweather which sucks.

    For pac no matter what happens he will not look as bad as mayweather which I don't understand.

    If negotiations are not complete by the 10th, 15th at the latest, then the fight is not happening in May. (IMO)

    No I am more of a Floyd fan than pac fan but love both but some of the Floyd nutcases and pac nutcases here are what drives people against the fighter.

    • May 2nd is a given... May 3rd, May 4th, May 5th. See a pattern?
    • MGM... for the last decade.
    • PED test... Didn't Pac have testing for Bradley and Rios? :huh
    • 60-40... 1) this was resolved years ago and 2) does Pacquiao deserve more?
    • Rematch clause... from what was allegedly offered, this is interesting.
    Don't act like these are new or exclusive to Pacquiao.

    You keep talking about negotiations taking too long. Have you ever bought a house?
