[Boxing] Mayweather has less than 6 hours to sign contract

[RamenSoup43]

So apperently Floyd Mayweather Jr. (who won "Fighter of the Year" for some reason on the Espys a couple of days ago) has until midnight tonight to respond to a fight contract to fight Manny Pacquiao on Nov. 13. The fight would generate millions as the same rules apply from last time. Pacquiao has agreed to Mayweather's random style drug testing stipulation with no cut-off date.

Mayweather hasn't responded yet.



Any thoughts on this? Will he wait to the literal last minute to respond or something or will he let everyone call him a coward now? Even the network that awarded him Fighter of the Year over Pac and GSP?

Mayweather is a coward and wont fight pac, He would rather have a 60-0 streak against no names and wash-ups then fight someone in their prime that could pose a threat to him.. He wont sign.

He's got just over 2 hours left... I think Bob Arum's going to be on The Boxing Truth show at midnight or something to announce wether the fight is on or off. And you know how brutal that show is.

Thanks for the update... Floyd chickened out so Pac is now looking to a fight in the Middle East with Margarito or another fight with Cotto.

Honestly, I want to see him fight another favorite of mine, Paul Williams. After he has a rematch with Kermit Cintron since their fight was more of a freak accident (Cintron's legs got tangled with Williams, where Williams fall launched Cintron through the ropes and onto the concrete. The fight went to the cards and Williams ended up winning after just a few rounds. They need a rematch; Cintron for more opportunities, Williams for more exposure.)
