    If a mega-fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao is going to happen on November 13, a deal between both sides will have to be reached sooner than later. Top Tank CEO Bob Arum, who promotes Pacquiao, said the negotiations are getting close to the deadline of when a deal would have to be reached. Arum did not disclose any specifics as far as the amount time remaining,but base on his tone-time is starting to run out.He reserved the MGM grand in Las Vegas and Cowboys stadium.. in a tentative November date. If a Mayweather-Pacquiao deal fall trough, former 3 time World Champion Antonio Margarito has been chosen as the front runner to fight Pacquiao in November", Arum stated.

    I suspect if they do agree on it, then yes it will be announced after the World Cup is over. If nothing is announced after that though, this could be dead.

    im sorry but 60/40 is not a good deal.....55/45 is the best deal should FLoyd want a higher percentage that i do recognize he deserves but 60/40 is too much.

    I agree, but you ask for 60/40 so you can get 55/45, so we'll see.
