[Unforgiven]

I'm going to just assume reading comprehension isn't' a requirement for Mayweather fan boys.

Tired of explaining he's agreed to the blood testing and said the cut is fine.

Hell it's been 3 excuses this week

The Cut (debunked PAC seen walking around face healed)
I am not sure if Mayweather will be licenses in time (really stupid)
The stadium arena won't be built in time perfect date is June 9 (they finally found one that sticks)

Why was that even mentioned about the cut not being healed if it was already healed?

I guess if you guys just want to ignore what Manny himself said and simply quote crazy ass Bob Arum...

Manny himself said "“There is a possibility of fighting Mayweather in May and I’ll discuss what is best for us to do…[the cut is] fine and there’s no problem.”"

You guys crack me up by the way, everyone knows if Manny had come back with "Yeah, May 5th is fine, 50/50 split, cya there" that Mayweather would have started bitching about the money saying he wants it 60/40 his way. He's already tried this before...

Both sides are guilty in this, no one with any common sense can look at this and think Mayweather is real and straight up...

At this point, this argument isn't really going anywhere. Both sides have their own views in it.

If Manny's people say they wont fight before June, then I'll gladly acknowledge the blame is on them. If they put up a May date and Mayweather has an issue, it's on him. If they get it worked out, great.

No one has any problem with Manny. We have a problem with Arum. And he is the reason this fight has not happened. If Manny doesnt speak up and demand this fight, he is becoming just as much of the problem as arum is.

Right, I'd put the majority of the blame on Arum at this point, but Mayweather's people have had their own issues and walked away from the fight before mid-negotiations and scheduled other fights. It's not just because Arum is hard to deal with, it's because they didn't get everything they wanted also.

Roach pushing hard for Pac-Mayweather - http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id...yweather-fight

I know different people will take different things from the article, but I posted it mainly because of the end. I'm glad to see someone in Manny's corner calling out Bob Arum, who is responsible for the flood of "excuses" out there.

This part mainly :

Ultimately, Roach said, there have been too many excuses on both sides. He said the reason this fight has been hung up for so long comes down to the animosity between Arum and Mayweather's adviser, Al Haymon, and Golden Boy, the promoter Mayweather works with.

"It's ridiculous that two grown men can't do business together," Roach said of Arum and Haymon. "It's like they both want to take their ball and go home. F---- it, it's business. They just need to drop the issues they have with each other and negotiate. This is not personal, this is business. Golden Boy is part of that equation, too.

"People are starting to go the other way and not care about this fight because it's taking so damn long to make it. You've got to do it soon. I think it's at its peak. It's definitely time."

[DM72]

I'm so glad you posted that. Roach is right. People are starting to lose interest and the time to make it happen is now.

As I stated before in this thread, that beef between Mayweather & Arum is real. I fully believe they would both pass on the mega payday involved just to spite the other.

New Floyd Interview

[DM72]

OK. Then why don't Floyd give Pac/Arum "absolutely" no more excuses and tell them he'd be willing to fight Pac in late May. He does that and Pac/Arum find an excuse to not fight, they'd be no question on who's ducking who.

WBA orders Khan-Peterson rematch, cites 'irregularities'
Amir, take it like a man.
Ah well, if it's anywhere NEAR as good as the first one.

[DM72]

Kahn, like Marquez, have acted like a couple of b*****s in defeat. Erislandy Lara got hosed 2 times worse than both of them combined against Paul Williams but you didn't see him whining about it.

[SiCkSoULjA]

If what Floyd said in that interview is true then Bob Arum is one dirty dude which we already knew but he's crazy. Floyd said one of them investors is giving Arum 30-40 million to step aside and they will take control. That's your temporary stadium money right there, that money should go to the fighters, so Mayweather get 40 million, PAC get 40 million and Arum gets his 40 million LOL.

If that's the case Mayweather should get 30-40 million more too make it fair. Arum is Pacs guy so that mean even if they split then they are getting almost 70% of the pie.

Lara did whine, justifiably so, its just that nobody outside of boxing diehards cared.

At this point, can you really believe anyone? Everybody is too stubborn for their own good and the only thing anyone seems to be interested in is to make the other guys look bad.

I don't remember Lara acting the way Kahn and Marquez did in defeat. I'm sure he thought he won, but Marquez demanding that Pac admit he loss and Kahn crying about the referee is taking it to another level.
