    Yup it wont happen too much animosity and egos to make it work. If May-Mosley does 2ce or 3ce Manny - Clottey PPV it puts even more strain on the already troubled negotiation scenario.

    Arum is talking Pac/Margarito. He makes the decisions not Pac. So the fight more than likely wont happen with Pac taking on the ghost of bricks past. Steroid vs Plaster.. who you picking. I wonder how Marg would of reacted if they did not check his gloves a second time b/c the commissoin already signed off on them. And here comes Nazim... making up his own rules...lol.

    Don“t think it will. if Pac continues to say no drug testing and Mayweather demanding it.

    Mayweather has said that he (a) won't accept a 50/50 split anymore, and (b) wants testing up until the day of the fight, and won't offer a window with no testing. Given that he knows that Pacquiao will not accept either of these conditions then I'd say the fight is very unlikely to happen.

    Mayweather is going to prove in this fight against fighters who have any sort of star power he can make huge draws and get the blood testing he's asking for. Until Pacquiao grows out of his fear of needles... or whatever it might be that he is terrified of, it won't happen.

    It won't happen Arum and Pac are going to continue to fight guys who he holds all the advantages against mainly in handspeed and footwork. That and Pac won't agree to any type of random blood testing.

    I don't see it happening either they will never agree on terms. I think that agreeing on all terms except 24 days vs 14 days was as close as you can get now they will just be even further apart when they come back to the table

    Won't happen...I don't think anybody can say Floyd's demands are unreasonable but Pac-Man obviously has something to hide...

    mayweather wants this fight i think his style is a match up nightmare for pac and i think pac wants the fight fighters fight thats what they do but unfortunately arum does not want this fight at all so i dont see it happening but i do see anothe super fight in the future say may beats mosely in dominant fashion and a week later pwill beats cintron and calls out money may on hbo that is the fight i would like to see would be much more exciting in my opinion and i have a funny feeling its gonna happen leneord and hearns all over again

    Mayweather knows that his market value drops tremendously if he loses the zero. People talk about how huge this fight is, but the risk is also great. Especially for Floyd. People watch Floyd fights to see him drop the zero, not because he's exciting. So, yes he can get $40 million for one big fight with Pac, but the risk of a loss means that he can't keep commanding $20 million for fighting smaller nobodies and old men. Long term financial planning says it's fiscally safer not to make this fight.
