    I know we've heard it all before. But I think he may actually be serious this time around. Pac is not getting any younger, neither is Floyd.

    Thoughts?

    This POS has already ****ed things up, if Pac is gonna retire he might let the fight happen to maximize the profits he can get out of Manny but I doubt Arum is being honest here.

    Look at his actions for the past years, i want it to happen but the chances are slim.

    The stuff that happened early in the year (Twitter call out, May 5 etc) was that for real or just shitalk with no papers signed?

    Same old nonsense to sell Pacquiao's next fight to the fullest. This isn't the first time he said the same exact thing.

    BOTH sides use the same tactics to sell their fights.

    Bob Arum made more money with Pac Bradley than he would with May Pac 50/50. This fight is not happening as long as Pac is with Arum

    You act like that's pac / arums fault. Floyd doesnt want arum involved because he wants to control all the money. If he wasnt so greedy he could have sat down and worked out a deal with Top Rank a long time ago.

    Anyone find it strange how he mentioned fighting Mayweather TWICE next year when most people have Floyd winning a thorough decision?

    Floyd better have the judges secured if he ever fights a bob arum fighter.

    Oh yea, he'll make it happen. Probably will make sure Bradley beats Floyd too, killing even more luster of Mayweather-Pacman fight. Then he'll make the winner fight Bradley again. This man's done **** like this before where he'll make more money in the long run than to make a superfight when everyone demands it. He knows the Mayweather-Pacman fight will sell no matter when they decide to fight. He has a backup plan for his backup plan. He became Kings rival for a reason.
