Whose fault is it for not making this.....


Man it's been a while since I posted something on here but with Pacquiao NOT fighting Mayweather on November, I have some thoughts about this:
Pacman-Mayweather is what the public, media, and probably both fighters want. But promoters like Arum has to put their ego first and tell Floyd when to sign if they he doesn't, they find some other fight just because they want some money out of it. No wonder boxing is a dying sport!!!
If Arum really wanted to get this 'megafight' in the works, why didn't he just talk to Pacman and Floyd's people to agree on when to negotiate for this fight? You can't just tell someone like Floyd when to sign knowing full well that he probably didn't want to talk about it yet. Arum and Floyd may not be the best of friends but that does not stop you from making something like this happen.
You think if Pacman had a promoter other than Bob Arum, may a Pacman-Mayweather fight may still have been a possibility for this year??
I'm guessing this will be a Holyfield-Tyson deal in which they will eventually fight when they are a bit past their prime but it could of happen when they were in their prime!!!!
