    Floyd Mayweather can run his mouth all day and night. "Im the best, I beat him I beat him" blah blah blah

    Recently we have heard alot from Bob Arum about the Pacquiao v Mayweather situation, but Floyd has been remarkably quiet...

    Strange for a person who is never shy of voicing his opinion.........

    I want to know whats happening Floyd, SPEAK!!!!!!

    Loose lips sink ships.

    You are used to Team Pac. They say they aren't going to talk about it, but then they do. Both camps promised not to negotiate in the press. Only one camp is actually sticking to their word.

    I am not worried, he's probably on vacation with his family, let the man be till the end of the set date for the finalized contracts to be signed.

    Have Manny even officially signed, or is it just Arum yapping his crooked mouth?

    These are Floyd's words: "I’m running my mouth a lot and I’m looking for a guy to shut me up. If you don’t shut me up I’m going to keep running my mouth."

    Maybe he found the guy and that's why he is quiet. :D

    I'd be real happy to see the fight happening. I actually think Mayweather has the edge and he will win. We won't find out though unless he gets the confidence to step up.

    From the way Arum speaks lately though, it's like he's OK either way. It's like he's fine making money with only his stable fighters and that he's also OK with Mayweather deciding to fight Pac. Either will get him lots of money. Hopefully, he won't announce the Pac-Marg fight a few minutes after deadline so that Floyd can have an extra day to save his ego.

    So even though you have no idea what is in the contract you feel comfortable placing blame on Mayweather for not signing it? You really trust Arum to represent Mayweather's interests in the contract? :roll:

    Well, nobody knows. But I think I can deduce from recent events.

    The Golden Boy and company made some admission on Spanish TV recently that the fight is almost a "done-deal". They later denied it despite the video evidence so that's already out of the bag. We have the supposedly untrustworth Arum saying that all terms have been agreed to. We also have Dan Rafael saying from his sources that Pac agreed to all the terms including the random blood testing. If you connect all these, there is a high possibility that the contract brought to Mayweather is well within the parameters that Mayweather gave his negotiating team to agree to. Otherwise, why wouldn't his negotiating team come out and say that there is no such "agreed to all terms" stuff.

    So for me, it's justifiable to put the blame on Floyd if he doesn't sign. The only thing that can save him would be for his negotiating team to publicly say that they themselves did not think the supposed terms were acceptable.

    So you can deduce?

    Can't argue the video evidence I haven't seen it and don't speak Spanish. Source it please.

    ---

    Both of your sources were Arum. Dan Rafael was reporting what Arum said. Not once did Arum or ANYONE else say Pac agreed to USADA testing. The exact quote that ALL of these sources are using is:

    Arum has said for weeks that Mayweather's camp has a contract for the fight and that Pacquiao has accepted the terms, including provisions for drug testing (blood and urine) leading up to the bout.

    Please show where it said Pac agreed. You can't. It just said Pac sent over some stuff that he agreed to. Not what said stuff was.

    ---

    Mayweather's negotiating team seems to be doing the exact same thing they did last time. Not talking to the press. Funny thing is that Arum, the guy who said he would not ruin the fight by talking to the press, is the MAIN person talking to the press. Maybe he is trying to... Ruin the fight!

    calm your ass down, there not excuses

    do you know what is in the contract?

    do you trust a word arum says?

    at the end of the day i think floyd will sign on saturday, who is arum to dictate to anyone apart from his employees at rot stank. i.e. pacman and margo etc.

    floyd isnt promoted by him anymore and floyd is his own man, pacman may aswel be his pet dog because he would do anything for arum,going back to my point we will see by tommorow or saturday.

    floyd is a psychologist in and out the ring, look at all you guys shatting your pants and talking abot it, he does this so that more people talk buold a hype and then moreppv sales its simple.

    at the same time he shows the doubters that he will fight, dont you remember him doing this to shane.

    now answer my above questions

    You don't get it do you? Pac wins when old men and writers vote. Mayweather wins when PEOPLE vote! It has already been said he is on vacation with his family.

    He isn't announcing anything because that is what they all agreed to. Funny thing is that Arum seems to be doing everything in his power to kill the fight in the press.

    Pac is a clown. Why are you fighting a guy who got KTFO in his last top level fight when there are tons of game WINNERS out there to tangle with? I guess that is what you do when you are a FRAUD!
