ARUM, FLOYD, PAC, WHO WILL BLINK FIRST?
San Francisco, CA– According to my clock and promoter Bob Arum’s edict, Floyd Mayweather has roughly 4 1/2 hours to sign an agreement for a November 13 fight with Manny Pacquiao, or it’s off! Unless Arum and Floyd are “just working us” with this countdown clock and the like, I don’t see Floyd doing things according to Arum’s timetable.
AN ALMOST CERTAINTY DEADLINE WILL COME AND GO!
Expecting Floyd to NOT sign anything today, simply because it was demanded to by Bob Arum, Bob will probably be on the phone with his various Internet hacks telling them, “You can blame Floyd, yada, yada, yada.” Look this is brilliant match of fencing between a kid with a sometimes thug mentality, and a Harvard educated lawyer who prefers refers over Cuban cigars.
NO GAMES REGARDING DISDAIN & DISLIKE
The object is to drag this out as long as they can, miss a few deadlines, all the while fans everywhere are talking about the fight. In reality, this is all part of a great promotion between two guys, Floyd and Arum. Manny Pacquiao, he will face the winner of the Floyd Mayweather-Bob Arum fight. If Floyd wins, Pac & Floyd are on. If Bob Arum wins, then it appears Manny Pacquiao will fight the disgraced Antonio Margarito in Mexico. As for Arum-Floyd, they don’t like eachother.

MGM & TEXAS BOTH ARE OPEN FOR NOVEMBER 13
Both the MGM Grand and Dallas Stadium in Dallas, TX, Arum has “temperorary” reservations on both. Speaking of Texas, the total paid for the Manny Pacquiao-Joshua Clottey fight in March was 31,000+ paid and not the reported 41,000. The live gate was over $6,000,000
