Will Mayweather go on with the March 13th date?

No. I don't think Floyd has enough courage to face Pacquiao even in a PPV viewership battle on March 13.

After the failed negotiations, Floyd is left like a pile of sh!t in the middle of the road.

 

n o

 

hmm says . . .

aww shiet... i voted yes...

if he also fights on the same date with Pac then I think his ppv will flop...

so "NO"

 

He should. He is the "CASH COW" of boxing right? Maybe if he went on a PPV battle with Pacman we'll see who the real "CASH COW" is. Not going for March 13 date against Pacman makes me think that he might not be so sure about being "THE CASH COW". lol

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

floyd will most probably will duck this head-on competition also. he's still looking for someone who is credible enough but at the same time, will have virtually null risk blemishing his "0".

 

not gonna happen. At this point, they are thinking of the best way to bail out of March 13 without losing face.

On the other hand, Floyd would really like to announce a fight before Jan 30 to avoid Shane. What would likely happen is he'd prefer to duck out of his PPV showdown with Pac and will just have to think of more creative ways later to avoid Shane.

 

Your "hmm says" **** is gay.

 

hmm says . . .

I love you

 

Haha for real!

I think mayweather waits and faces mosley if he wins, that's the best thing for everyone. I think he beats mosely and then uses that as a bargaining chip when him and PAC sit down again

 

:good:good

WHAT'S THE HOLDUP? IS MAYWEATHER BEING OFFERED STEP-ASIDE MONEY?




Forget what you've heard about Paulie Malignaggi, Nate Campbell, Kermit Cintron or Paul Williams! None of those guys will be fighting Floyd Mayweather Jr. on March 13th? Who then will the undefeated phenom be fighting? I'll tell you who....no one! That's right! I'm calling it! Floyd's not going to be fighting anyone on March 13th. If I were a betting man, I'd say there's an awfully good chance that "Money" Mayweather is going to be paid some "step aside" money just to give up that date. I know, it might sound crazy, but keep in mind this is boxing and far crazier things have happened.

Oh, don't get me wrong, that won't be the official reason why he won't be fighting. They'll come up with something clever and my guess is that's exactly what the "brains" of Team Mayweathr and HBO are doing right now. In fact, there may not even be money involved. After all, there are a lot of other ways that HBO can appease a disgruntled fighter. A promise of a future PPV date against an opponent of his choice is always a nice topic to discuss. Then again, this is "Money" Mayweather, AKA "The Human ATM Machine" we're talking about, so chances are, he's going to expect somebody somewhere to cough up the loot. My guess is that that somebody will likely be Ross "Greeny" Greenburg.

In one way, shape or form, the President of HBO Sports, Ross Greenburg, will pay. On one hand, they have Bob Arum ready to stage another Pacquiao mega-event at Cowboys Stadium. On the other hand, they have Floyd Mayweather ready to go against the dreaded TBA...and that TBA is a big problem right now. The clock is ticking to find a legitimate dance partner for Floyd Mayweather and thus far, most of the candidates have been meet with a lukewarm reception on both sides. Chances are, Team Mayweather, for one reason or another, doesn't seem so eager to jump in with Paul Williams or Kermit Cintron and likewise, HBO isn't too eager to stage another meaningless PPV with a smaller opponent like Nate Campbell or Paulie Malignaggi. Ideally, both HBO and Golden Boy would love to be able to offer up Shane Mosley's services, but there's simply not enough time for Team Mayweather to wait around for the outcome of Mosley's fight against Berto on January 30th. They need to make a move and they need to make one now. Not to mention, HBO needs to give Bob Arum an answer.

Let's face it, HBO is caught between a rock and a hard place right now. If they **** off Bob Arum, they could potentially lose out on future Manny Pacquiao bouts, as well as bouts with other Top Rank fighters, as Arum is perfectly capable of producing pay-per-events on his own. Then again, if they **** off Floyd Mayweather, they will more importantly **** off Mayweather's manager, Al Haymon, and risk losing future business with some of his other fighters, including Paul Williams, Andre Berto and Chris Arreola to name a few. Even worse, they'll lose that cushy relationship they had with one of the nation's top concert promoters, which is the real reason why HBO keeps Al Haymon happy. Oh, you didn't know? Yeah, do a little research on Al...there's A LOT more to him than just this being this mystery man involved with boxing.

It is for that reason that somewhere, right at this moment (at least right at the moment that I wrote this), there's a discussion going on between the powers that be and I'm willing to bet they're talking about a way to make everyone happy. The only way everyone will be happy is if Floyd steps aside and allows HBO to work with Arum. The only way that's going to happen is if Floyd and Al Haymon are made happy. Yes my friends, there are some backdoor deals going on right now, so don't be surprised when you find out that Floyd Mayweather will not be fighting on March 13th after all. And that's a good thing, as we'll all get a chance to enjoy Manny Pacquiao's tough fight...and yes, it is indeed a tough fight...against Joshua Clottey. Meanwhile, maybe we'll get lucky, Mosley will win and perhaps we'll get Mayweather vs. Mosley in May. After all, Golden Boy will have to be appeased as well and what better way to make them happy than to give them another big PPV date and opportunity to do more business with "Money" Mayweather.

 

it will be suicide if he go on that date.

 

What else could we expect on Floyd Mayweather Jr., he's been resting so much since JMM lol. IMO I think boxing fans ain't excited no more of when he fights next. :tired
