Bob Arum and Richard Schaefer, promoters respectively of Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr, are under way with negotiations to seal the superfight between boxing's pound-for-pound kings. With May 1 2010 the projected date of the contest, most likely in Las Vegas. Judging by the history of such affa...
All you have to know is that my fighter and his trainer Freddie Roach have gone on record saying they're happy to fight Mayweather
My job is to fight and it depends on promoter Bob Arum to negotiate that.
If Mayweather is interested, he will send a letter to (television channel) HBO saying that he is interested in doing the fight and who he wants to negotiate for him.
Ali's fight in Tokyo was basically a Bob Arum thought-up scam that was going to be 'ha-ha, ho-ho. We're going to go over there. It's going to be orchestrated. It's going to be a lot of fun and it's just a joke.' Well, when we got over there, we found out no one was laughing.
Miguel Cotto has always been a courageous fighter
I met with Bob Arum [of Top Rank] last week. We also want to meet with Golden Boy ... Gary Shaw has shown interested, Dan Goossen. Whoever is interested. I want to show them what can do. I don't want to go to a promoter and just wait for fights.
I've promoted Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvin Hagler, and Manny Pacquiao is the best fighter I have ever seen
I get carried away a lot, but I will go on record, and I really believe that pacquiao is the best fighter I've ever seen, including Ali and Ray Leonard and Marvin Hagler
That was amazing ... But this fight sold out in a week. We have absolutely no tickets and we didn't give any away. The early PPV numbers out of Puerto Rico (Cotto's home) are very good. I really think we have a chance at 2.2.
I was with Muhammad Ali and he never had this type of devotion – this kid is the biggest thing in the Philippines and everybody wants a piece of him
I've never seen anything like the adulation he's greeted (with) by Filipinos in the Philippines and all over the world ... That's something even Ali never had, that type of frenzy.
It is as wild a fantasy as what Manny Pacquiao is living right now
Here’s a guy who has come from an essentially Third World country, but he has become a world figure ... He can deal with statespeople and people say how well he handled himself when he met President Clinton. I have never seen anything like the adulation that he is treated by Filipinos and all over the w...

Manny Pacquiao has meant a lot to the sport of boxing
Manny Pacquiao's entire career has been incredible ... I mean, I have never in all the time I've been in boxing seen a fighter who keeps going up in weight and keeps Well, Manny seems to be getting faster and his punches seem to be getting stronger. So it's a phenomenon that we have never seen before in...
The Philippines has only one social welfare system, and it's Manny Pacquiao
You see, whether it’s Abu Dhabi or Dubai, the problem is there are a lot of hustlers who are happy to try to get involved and sell goods to the people in those places
Manny Pacquiao's entire career has been incredible
We'll open up with Humberto Soto fighting in another fight in Mexico
He wanted to fight before the end of the year, and we had a Latin Fury card on in Mexico ... So we decided that we would use the two best fights on that card, and put them with Pavlik against Espino from Youngstown.
Nobody has his heart and compassion for his people like Manny Pacquiao does
Our audience in boxing is ethnic: Hispanic, Filipino, Puerto Rican, Mexican.... UFC are a bunch of skinhead white guys watching people in the ring who also look like skinhead white guys.
