    Of course not. HBO makes more money off Floyd than anyone for a PPV event.

    Floyd could fight Gonzo from the muppets and HBO would sell it.

    yeah and risk him going to showtime as well, floyd is big money, he can fight spadafora and hbo just have to accept it.

    this fight will happen. They could probably charge 70 for the PPV at this point. There's so much money to be made for it not to happen.

    If it ever happens, it does bother me that both guys, which aren't getting any younger, will not necessarily be in their physical primes anymore...

    People have been saiyng that for 3 years. When it does happen, it'll be way too late. Both guys will be past their primes. I really don't care about the fight anymore.

    If Arum wanted the fight it would be made by now, he doesn't hence it isn't. Arum pulls the strings and decides what cut off dates are ok not Manny if so everyone on team Pac including Pac himself wouldn't give contrasting statements about the agreed upon cut off dates. They don't even communicate with each other enough to be on the same page, it's a bloody mess and Arum likes it that way because he's in charge and can avoid the Floyd fight this way. Pac's his little ***** who'll do anything master Arum says including refusing to speak about the blood testing, calling out Floyd or acknowledging he wants the fight.

    Huge misconception. No doubt Pac and FLoyd are the top draws in the sport but they will only make big numbers against other big names.

    The main reason all of their post DLH matches have been carefully picked!:deal
