    Add all the pac clowns to the list. I KNEW it would eventually happen and I said it would be at the end of Floyd's stint at SHO. I thought it would be the last fight though to get leverage on a new contract.

    I knew it was gonna happen.

    Thats just to much money bro. how you gonna call yourself "Money May" and not fight Pacquiao?? Plus he knows, like the rest of the world, this is the last fighter he needs to fight in his era. he's fought everyone else.

    Me. But then i saw King Khan, and i knew floyd would want to avoid him. So was obvious this fight would be made.

    Me, didn't think it would happen

    But I had direct communication with Les Moonves and told him about the situation and to deliver Floyd as promised (100% true). I think Les Moonves was the key figure to get this done as Floyd and Haymon tried to cower away again.

    I said it was going to happen at the end of their careers. But as it was getting closer, I had my doubts.

    All parties involved have maximized their earning potential. Now time for the cash out fight. If somebody loses now, it doesn't matter. They are ready to retire, so it won't impact future earnings too negatively.

    All about the $$$.

    I didn't. I've gone on record saying I didn't think it would happen. Just seemed like too much time had passed and too much ego was involved (from both guys). I'm happy I was wrong.

    Yes sir, I was one of those people. I didn't believe the fight would happen. Although I wish it happened much sooner, it is better late than never.

    I had showed much more faith in recent months and to a lesser degree the past couple years than I had in previous years. For me, it was when Pac started taking stringent testing and made that ultimate statement that that was no longer an issue. Then, with their dwindling ppv numbers (especially Pac) both their careers and Floyd's contract coming to an end, perfectly culminating at a time they were unobligated with fights, all logic pointed to it having to happen now, and it did. Even with all that blatant logic I am still a little surprised it happened ...I guess it's because of all the previous let downs.
