    Floyd's camp also said 'no negotiations took place' a while back, which was exposed as a lie. Like I said, I doubt Arum would just fabricate a story out o the blue. There's probably a little bit of truth to it.

    again...you tards have to hold on to whatever you can to feel like your boy has taken no part in this fight not happening....

    again...it boils down to what you deem a negotiation.....you cant start the 2nd negotiation if floyds demand of random, until the fight, testing is met......sure greenburg might have exchanged emails...even phone calls with both sides....but if that first point of contention isnt met...how can u even really start a negotiation? how can u really call it that??? technically both sides may have chatted with greenburg....but it never got serious

    and if it was serious...how come after arum imposed the deadline on his top rank website....how come when he fielded a conference call after the deadline....he wouldnt answer the question "what concessions did manny make this time in regards to testing"....he said "i cant comment on that"...the transcript is out there......why cant u tell us? pretty simple question...if u met the demand....and had the deal in place...why not tell us? ill tell u why....because arum is full of ****

    If it's a lie, the Mayweather camp will set the story straight.

    "I had a couple of conversations with Ross [Greenburg] and I laid out all the terms that would be acceptable to our side and I also informed him about the concession [14-day cutoff] that Manny had made regarding drug testing"

    oh nice...i remember floyd saying in the ring after mosley, the starting point for negotiations was, up until the fight testing....way to go bob....so after walking away from the first round of negotiations...u decide yer ready to do 14 days when floyd said its got to be up until the fight testing.....awesome! u really showed me u want the fight!

    Floyd Sr. said it all:

    "Leave the game alone! You already made your mark in the game. You showed people who you are. Everybody knows Mayweather. There ain’t nothing to tell. Everybody knows Pacquiao. Everybody knows Mayweather. They’re going to continue to know Mayweather. They’re going to remember Mayweather from the one who was scared of Pacquiao. That’s just alright. You know what? You ain’t going to be no further than him at the end of the day."

    :yep

    Singapore offering to give Floyd 65 mil dollars is not something arum can hang his hat on and say that it was a real offer and that Floyd turned it down. It's a shame Floyds critics are even using this as anything. You guys must like truly hate Floyd.

    Then why isn't anyone from Floyd's team denying this supposed "lie" from Arum? Kind of embarrassing stuff to be said in the media about you and you stay silent?

    lie, truth doesn't matter. Why does Floyds camp have to Come out and say anything? Who did arum talk to in Floyds camp? Just because money is thrown at you doesn't mean you have to go greedy and say yes to anything. There are many factors that are going to happen to make this fight.

    i hope you arent that dumb....but ive seen pac fans actually say floyd hasnt shown anything to be called an elite boxer....so u just might fall into that category

    the quote isnt literal....he knows that people will make excuses for pac and generally believe its floyds fault because manny is a nice guy and his son plays an ******* in front of the camera....hes already heard the people saying floyd is scared of manny....and he knows you cant reverse it unless they fight(but it takes two sides to make it...and reality is mannys side has shown no more willingness).....so hes saying "let em talk and say what they want...at the end of the day who gives a ****"
