I don't know how anyone believes a thing either side says anymore... This fight was "must happen!" three years ago... If anything, it's becoming LESS interesting to me as time goes on... both guys look to be slowing down
I think Floyd was leery about facing Pacquiao at first, and knew what Bob Arum is up to, so he was happy to let Pacquiao take damage facing other opponents (Floyd's style generally ages better) while he bides time and makes money fighting no hopers like Victor "The Tree" (he has the same IQ as one) Ortiz. Now his balls grew a bit, plus Marquez might win a 4th bout with Pacquiao, so he may truly want the bout now. But an old lying geezer from Harvard is in the way.
Yup, two months ago it was live footage from the back seat of one of Floyd's cars. Now it's up in a hotel bedroom (or somebody's bedroom). They're getting closer...
The clock thing was fun, only because I've never before participated in a 2AM conference call (12AM Vegas time).
