    They probably got fed up and just chose to source another opponent.

    Arum has a good stable of WW fighters, Cotto/Clottey/Margarito, and he's much happier matching them against each other then he is putting them against outside fighters.

    Now he has a new superstar entering the division and so making as many fights between them as he can.

    Don't be surprised if you see a Pac/Margarito fight at some stage.

    as soon as mayweather said he wouldnt fight in texas arum knew that fight with him was off for now...Jerry Jones offered too much money to arum and he didnt wanna share any with golden boy so he found clottey, one of his own fighters and knew hed be able to cash in on both of them and keep all the money in house..As soon as jerry jones offered up his venue and the cash...Arum never had any intention of havin manny v mayweather he just wants all the cash to himself

    ????? What are you talking about i didnt lift this from noone. These are my thoughts and words as a boxing fan. I feel this way from watching the whole thing unfold. So gone with your conspiracy theory bro. Now i see why Bob Arum keeps doing what he is doing cause of fanatic thinking fans like some of you guys. Your eyes are blinding by your love for pacquiao.

    Arum didn't waste any more time deliberating whether or not Mayweather's intentions were to actually fight pacquiao. He decided that Mayweather was simply wasting the time of everyone involved. Whether or not he was correct remains to be seen. But, if anyone is familiar with Mayeather's M.O., it's Bob Arum...

    BTW, who cares. Enjoy the match-ups made without Mayweather. he is a non factor in the eyes of anyone who truly cares about the sport. Mayweather is perfectly content holding the sport of boxing hostage just to get what he wants. Thank goodness Bob Arum isn't.

    clottey is also under top rank.
    clottey has been chasing for big fight and not ducking anybody.
    march 13 is approaching to near.
    both pac and clottey are ready for war.

    is there a problem not to make it so fast?

    Is floyd against fighting is texas because he cant lidocain his hands or what is it?... It cant be about money because the fee Jones was willing to pay was a lot higher then the offers from vegas?

    the size of the stadium is a lot larger then anywhere in vegas the most modern stadium in america right now would be awesome for a fight especially of the magnatude of what it would of been.

    Still thought it was classless that that Schaeffer ducked the meeting with jerry jones to even hear the proposal.

    GOOD POST-It is true too-Arum is using Arum like no other-

    ARUM AND TEAM PACQUIA ARE STRAIGHT BITCHES FOR NOT MAKING THIS FIGHT-

    IF THEY DO MAKE IT THEN I'LL BE GLAD AS I WANT TO SEE IT MAY 5TH!

    He can always do a COTTO rematch or JMM 4 after Floyd:thumbsup:hat

    Freddie Roach said he would not have enough time to train Manny for a March 13th date-I have posted the source many times.
    :deal

    Clearly, based on all the comments and everything that happened-THEY "RAN" TO CLOTTEY TO AVOID FLOYD-HORRIBLE CHOICE IN COMPARISON TO WHO HE COULDA FOUGHT.

    Pac been ducking this fight since Cotto 1 BTW:deal Using a drug test as an excuse, and now JMM 4 OR Cotto 2-LMFAO AT THE MARGARITO VICTORY TOO:rofl:rofl:rofl LB 4 LB BEST N U FIGHTING MARGARITO, POST OLD ASS MOSLEY KNOCKOUT:rofl:rofl
