-Floyd hasn't come out and said I want to fight Manny on May 5th.

I guess Bob Arum can't read that Floyd's done nothing but ask for Manny on May 5th.

I still say it doesn't happen on May 5th, in part because of an excuse Bob Arum has yet to conjure up.
Arum and his idea for this dumb ass temp stadium. Talking about leaving 20 million on the tabel because of the size of the arena.

The truth is he feels he leaving the money on the table because he is not the company generating 100% of the money. Instead he has to share it. People are not dumb Bob! Multiple investment firms are fighting to pledge 100+ million dollars on this fight happening and we are getting excuses about a stadium not being big enough, Manny needs more time to heal, and so on.

Manny needs to be his own man and demand the fight with Floyd gets made.

Manny needs to realize Bob Arum and Top Rank works for him and that he doesn't work for Bob.
