It would have been a megadollar fight for everybody involved. Unfortunately, to the greedy ass****s involved, their share wasn't enough- they wanted the other guy's share too. And I think Floyd was afraid of Pacquiao a couple years ago (but probably less so now). That was the reason he poisoned the well with PED accusations and demands for drug testing that NO other fighter, ANYWHERE, had to undergo. I mainly blame Floyd and Arum. I think Pac genuinely wants it.
And now that the Bradley pick backfired (and the Marquez pick backfired even worse), Pacquiao has no cards to play. He is now in a position where he needs Floyd more than Floyd needs him. It was the other way around a couple years ago. He needs a decisive victory against a meaningful opponent (or two). That will run out the clock even more. the only way he gets a Floyd fight now is to take a facial on the money side. Of course, brilliant me figured out the way to solve that long ago: Sign the fight for a 60/40 winner/loser split; if you want the big slice- all you have to do is... win the fight.
Biggest showdown in 20 years and these bungholes can't figure out a way to make it work. Sure is a hard sport to love sometimes.
