That's a fair sentiment. However, you can't say the same thing against Pac because historically, he has taken what most people think the harder fights and he never backs down come fight night.
before negotiations began they were looking for a way out...arum specifically said he did not want the fight, and when they asked roach about it he was giving excuses about mayweather wanting the fight at 154 so it wouldnt happen (this claim was found to be false, yet people take it as gospel because freddie roach said it)...they never wanted the fight, pac maybe wanted it, but the people around him stated from day one that they didnt, and they did their best to place the blame on floyd so he would look like the bad guy...every day there was a press release from his camp bashing mayweather with false statements, yet some people can still say floyd didnt want the fight.
This negotiations tells me why fights in the past never got made with Cotto or Margarito (All Arums Top Rank Inc. Fighters). If Arum can F**K UP a NO-BRAINER Mega-Fight that everyone wants to see...Imagine how he would have F***ED UP those fights.
You have a date set. It is almost the middle of January. Why play around? The fight ain't going to happen and you have less then 3 months till fight date. Find a new dance partner and go on. The fight is signed and you have payday or wait around for more smack talk and get nothing. Both guys should just move on. Is it that hard to comprehend?
