I was reading that yahoo article the other day and it seems very doubtful Arum will even negotiate to make it happen. Perhaps Floyd knows this (hes a pretty smart guy) and at least he gets the nod for calling out Pac and saying he's down to fight, but when Arum doesn't make it happen, Pac be the one who looks scared. Very smart move.
I hope somehow we get the fight though. Doesn't seem very likely.

The thing that sucks is these two are probably going to end up fighting like 3 years from now when they are both washed up. Its gonna be like the 2nd Fight between Roy Jones and Bernard Hopkins.

Mayweather keeps fighting inferior opponents, but then again, this is boxing.

This is what the casual fan doesn't get. Bob Arum has nothing to gain from Manny vs Floyd. He realizes that Manny is his cash cow. If Manny fights floyd and beats floyd he gets the one big pay day from that fight. If he loses to floyd (which experts will tell you is more then likely) he won't see another big pay day for Pac. So what does he do?? Duck floyd never fight him but have a good 3-4 more "mega-fights" (hand picked opponents not named Marquez that you are decently sure manny will beat) and rake every penny you can out of manny before he retires.
