“I’d love to fight Manny Pacquiao,” Mayweather said. “We tried to make the fight happen years ago. We had problems with random blood and urine testing. Like I said, I just want to be on an even playing field. Now he’s in a very, very tight situation, he’s lost to Marquez, he’s lost to Bradley, pay-per-view numbers are down extremely low, so he’s desperate. I’ve been wanting that fight a long time ago and I’m just waiting on them. Of course, we have to make the fight on Showtime Pay-Per-View because Showtime Championship Boxing is number one and will remain number one and I’m here to stay.”

“Floyd Mayweather is not ducking or dodging any opponent. Bob Arum is stopping the fight. We have been trying to make this fight happen behind the scenes for years now, but the fans and the people have been fooled because they have been listening to people on just one side,” Mayweather said. “Now it’s time for us to talk. We want to fight. We’re ready. Let’s make it happen May 2nd, Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao. Let’s do it!”

“I know that he’s not on my level,” Mayweather said. “The fans would love to see the fight and, of course, I want to go out with a bang, so let’s make this fight happen. Manny Pacquiao, Bob Arum, you guys have been ducking us for years. We caught you guys fooling the public, fooling the critics. Before we tried to make the fight happen, you guys didn’t want to take random blood and urine testing so that’s why the fight didn’t happen. I offered you $40 million, then you didn’t want to make the fight happen. You lost twice, now you’re coming back begging for the same money. That’s not going to happen. Let’s make this fight happen for the people and for the fans, Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao, May 2nd, ‘Cinco de Mayweather!’”

I am seriously beginning to think that with Floyd fast approaching 40, Khan is actually a very real threat and not the walkover everybody seems to think.

no doubt the pac team will make more excuses yet again.  Arum already come out and said that the fight can't happen on the 2nd - typical.

Be nice to see this fight. However its tainted. Since floyd called out manny juicing he has not ko anyone. There is probably no doubt he was (alledgy) even roach could not say for sure he wasn't. The problem with drugs in sport is that certain sports it can be deadly. Im sure when manny was ko'd something was right. Boxing has a serious problem with drugs and testing. Boxing as a sport is great but drugs and politics are ruining it. Manny Floyd will not happen and to be honest i could not care less at this stage. Boxing going forward needs less belts more testing and the better fighters to fight. Stop the bullshit.

May whether picks his fights and made it impossible for the fight to happen 5 years ago because he could easily of lost.

Two years ago Mayweather won this at a canter, now I think Pacquiao beats him. I'd also give Khan a very good chance against Floyd.

Don't think so myself. Pity would have been good to see. If they don't agree this time mayweather does not want it. Pac has agreed to everything Mayweather wants so the ball seem's in Mayweather's court. If he backs out it's going to look bad this time. Their where other factors last time this time pacman seems to have agreed to all conditions.

Brain cells will be inconsolable if he does. He's spent the last few years obsessing over Mayweather asking why he won't fight Pac Man.

Like to see the fight but way to late. Boxing is a real joke of a sport and its going to kill itself. There is a lot of fights out there that should be made but money and ducking for easier fights is the way forward. Andy lee took a fight against someone who got a belt because he didnt want the fight and he wants to fight andy lee again. Complete and utter joke. You have anthony jusua fighting bar brawlers and hes in against another one. Amir Joke Khan still going and claiming he is one of the best but once in against anyone that can punch its lights out. Boxing is a joke. Long gone the days of real fighters fighting each other. Will we ever see the likes of a hagler/hearns just fight i dont think so. Boxing as a sport is just dying. PPV in the us may think they can keep going but people and i think its happening will get tired of the bollix.
