    Bullshit. Arum knows pacquiao will lose so he's just saying that.

    It only takes 2 months to heal a cut

    Sure he does. The fear and hesitation has been on Mayweather's part. Pacquiao has not been refusing Mayweather any opportunity, it has been the other way around.

    Floyd has shown fear by refusing and hesitating and putting off Pac, because he knows that Pac has the potential to really hurt him. I have never understood Floyd's refusal to fight Pac, other than Pac packs a powerful punch and Mayweather has felt it before.

    Remembering that these wounds and cuts are reopening after reopening of flesh deems much longer times for these types to heal, they bleed easily even when fully healed just from mere contact.

    Mayweather has punked out time and again and he has been put under so much pressure even by his fans questioning him why he does not fight Pac, that now, he is backed into a corner and must fight him. He can run no longer. In this fight, I put my money on Pac.

    Mayweathers last fight was pathethic. Nothing more to say about it. He showed fear in that last round, and that made him lose big respect points from me, seeing how he ended the fight.

    Mayweather has had a great career, but he has a weak heart when it comes to the real challenge for him and that is Pac.

    Of course he does. Pacquiao will fight Mayweather.

    I find it hilarious that people are defending Mayweather. Keep in mind that it took more than two plus years and Pacquiao's mediocre showing against JMM before Mayweather finally grew a nutsack.

    I dont think so especially deep cuts unless he doesnt get hit alot which i doubt against Mayweather. I believe Mayweather will end up fighting someone else on May 5, Pacquiao will not step up and accept the challenge.

    A normal cut heals at one percent a day depending on the age of the fighter. I would think may the fifth would be enough time. More than likely it is bob doing his usual manuvering trying to arrange the fight.

    maybe, but after his last fight pacquiaos been made to look not past it but quite average considering marquez was 38 and was the better fighter so what would happen if he faced mayweather, its floyd fight to win if he trains aswell as pacquiao his skills will out do manny

    Lol.

    60 days is the standard cut healing time.

    Bob Arum is the biggest f*cking liar ever. I really hate that guy. He and he ALONE is the sole reason for Mayweather/Pacquiao not happening.

    Yeah, Marquez stung Pacquiao and now he seems less than professional by trying to put off fighting Mayweather....come on now....In May?....This is just December!. Pacquio is trying to buy some time. I thought better of him than that. But then again, Mayweather could put an end to Paquiao's career. I assume that is why he is in no hurry to go toe to toe with him..Anyways, it's Paquiao's lie, let him tell it, but this might cause him to lose some fans...to fight Mayweather in May could cost him his career.

    Lets be real.. Pacman wants to juice up again before he takes this fight.. He wants to put on as much power and size as he can before he starts pissing and taking blood tests.. Its obvious.. He was dominating a buncha scrubs for 3 years as he moved up in weight at a historic rate, then all of a sudden, questions about him juicing arose and his punches werent as powerful anymore and his upper body got smaller. So, ya Manny wants the big payday, but he knows he cant beat Mayweather naturally.
