Floyd Mayweather jail sentence delayed to June 1, fight against Manny Pacquiao now possible for May 5

There's still at least a slight chance that Floyd Mayweather will fight Manny Pacquiao on May 5, 2012.
That's because a Nevada judge today ruled that "Money" won't have to begin serving his 90-day jail sentence until June 1, which allows him to fight on the date that both he and Pacquiao have said they plan to return to the ring.
But will it be against each other?
For now, it doesn't look that way. That's because Bob Arum, "Pacman's" promoter, told BoxingScene.com (via Bad Left Hook) that he's not looking at Mayweather for Pacquio's next bout. He did say, however, that if the Filipino fighting sensation wins on May 5 against whoever they line up, they would be open to making the superfight in November of this year.
Of course, all of this was said before the judge's ruling today and Arum's argument against attempting to make the fight was he didn't want to deal with a bunch of "what ifs."
Well, now he doesn't have to.
That means the next few weeks should be a very interesting time, indeed. Moral arguments regarding the judges ruling aside, anyone hoping this door opening leads to a boxing ring with Mayweather and Pacquiao in it?

get ready to headbutt.
like i said 2 years ago.. "this fight will NEVER happen’’
floyd is afraid of pacman.

Same can be said about urs however lol
freenow, Scarnon step up, and man up, therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee.
No one is afraid of Pacman
Especially not after his flast fight with Marquez

I used to think pac had may's number but for the past few years I changed my mind
Floyd is afraid of a loss more than pac imo. I rate pac too but think Sergio Martinez is the boxer to beat Floyd if they met at lmw (unlikely now).
Nunes DEC, Riddle KO 2, Volkmann SUB 3, DHK DEC, Castillo Sub 2, Pearson DEC, Pham KO 2, Gustaffson KO 3, Fitch DEC, Cerrone DEC, Brock TKO 2
martinez would beat floyd but floyd wouldnt take the fight
plus i think martinez is too big for floyd
"ever heard of a tune up? tee hee hee hee
"ah hee hee hee ever heard of a ritual killing? tee hee hee hee"
"i dont get it"
"you gnaw on her face in public like that again and you'll be one tee hee hee hee"
That’s exactly what I’ve been saying sergio would beat Mayweather but sergio is bigger that him

Who cares at this point.
Man, this is already a tailermade excuse if the fight does happen and Floyd loses. You know, he was side tracked and couldn’t fully focus on the fight… blah blah blah.

Give me a break!
Everyone knows this fights NOT happening….
hahaha!!
i literally laughed out loud when i read about head butting some vaginas! i will be pretty pissed to if this doest happen, they alway bring my hopes up.
For what...
Taking his kids Cell Phone…
Seriously, i am a big time Floyd hater, but everybody knows this sentence is a joke.
This fight will never happen.
They’ll just tease it over and over again. And if by chance it does happen, they’ll have like 4 rematches with 3 of them ending in controversy.

As soon as Floyd gets out of prison, he's putting Pacquiao to sleep
Tim Elliot had the best knockout of the year. FACT
Like Floyd has 1 punch KO power to do it, keep dreaming.

I guess the media just can't help but to talk about this fight
It seems so clear that these two will never fight.I believe I know the main reason this fight won’t happen but at this point it doesn’t matter.

It was in a thread where Sarah Kaufman was bitching that Ronda got the title shot ahead of her and I said:
She’s just butthurt cause she thought the days of high school when the pretty girls were favored over her had long passed. And now it’s followed her from high school to her professional life. It’s strictly psychological. She thought when she became a fighter that she had finally found an outlet to get out all that rage that had weighed her down over the years. But…BAM! Here it is again…she’s distraught…
People want to see pretty girls get filthy and disgusting together..when pretty girls stink, it’s sexy…no one wants to see an ugly girl get filthy and stanky…it’s nasty
And I immediately got that ban message
Ha.
I got banned for referring to japanese fighters as “japs”.

I guess
I mean i was there for a very longine(under another name of course) and one day i felt lazy and just typed japs instead of japanese fighters, and of course i was deemed a racist by Mr. Burke, and banned from BE or life.

You're being a goof...
Floyd wants to fight Pacman..why wouldn’t he? He gets a big payday and a huge victory…Bob Arum is the one that doesn’t want the fight…just cause you dislike Floyd doesn’t mean you should spew shit about him
by Starr788 on Jan 6, 2012 4:12 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
but its true, Floyd doesn’t want to taint his record by potentially loosing. it doesn’t matter who Floyd fights he makes super bank no matter what anyway

At this point it just sounds like pacman management is ducking Floyd . If this fight happens Floyd by dec ny reasoning for this is pacman couldn’t Chase down a 40 year old suga shane how the hell is gonna hit Floyd who is the master of the back peddle, but I agree with the other posters this fight doesn’t happen will get ortiz mayweather 2 and pacquiao marquez 4 and ill not give a Damn just like the rest of us here on mania.

What?
He beat the shit out of Shane Mosley.
PS: That 40 year old Mosley almost sent Mayweather to the canvas in that 2nd round
What fight did u watch that was the worst landing percentage of his career also the fewest punches he’s thrown in a fight ever. Ps almost put him dwn and lost
by 505mmacity on Jan 6, 2012 5:45 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Floyd is the best African fighter ever, I’m sure he’d smack Pac up and down. Money would tool him, I don’t blame him for having no interest in the fight.

by danago on Jan 6, 2012 4:04 PM EST via mobile reply actions
Everybody in the world wants to see if he can beat him
Why should he have no interest in the fight. If he is all about Legacy and Money, this fight will forever detirmine his legacy and give him 2x
more money then any other fight out there.For your AA comment, hahaha

I've never followed boxing in my life
But just by years of boxing news on MMA websites even I can tell you that they won’t make this fight happen. It’s the one big fight that everyone has to see (I haven’t heard of any other boxers to be quite honest) but instead of matching them up, they will take the safe bet and GSP their way through their careers. IF they ever matched them up, it would be the first boxing match I’ve ever paid to see and that is saying something.
Granted, I would be screaming at the TV to go for the double leg takedown, but that’s cause I’m slow in the head.
You guys are crazy...
THIS FIGHT WILL HAPPEN.
in another 5-10 years or so…when people stop caring.
Thats me and Marco Antonio Barrera in the profile picture.
floyd won’t fight. he will if he thinks pacman has lost a step.
but then floyd has, he got wobbled by mosley unlike in any of his other fights.
