    the risk is paying both mayweather and pacquiao a guranteed $40M or $50M each and this fight didn't sell as much as expected which is around what oscar-floyd had made. getting investors and more sponsors would make the promoters more at ease with these big payout fights.

    listen dumb**** all parties involved have the money. Floyd wants the back end money. If Bob is scared of getting burnt he can drop his right to the back end and the other side can pay Manny. Everybody on Floyd side is going to tell him to take the money on the back end because this fight is going to sell 3mil plus PPV set live gate records, close circuit records, sponsorship fee records list goes on and on. **** they will make a ton of money from British PPV. Floyd side is not going to entertain "investors" unless the number looks like 100 mil. So stop sucking off Bob and realize he needs to do the deal like every other damn fight.

    So has Bob Arum's secret group of investors been revealed yet? Have they managed to secure a working telephone that can call other people than Bob Arum yet? Have they found GBP or Mayweather's number yet?

    Mind telling me where Bob Arum loses money on this deal? There isn't anywhere to lose money unless he guarantee's pacquiao an insane amount.

    Are you telling me Manny Pacquiao is so chicken to fight that he won't sign the contract unless Bob bankrupts himself on a guarantee?
