Floyd Mayweather says a highly anticipated fight with Manny Pacquiao will "never happen".
A much talked about mega-fight between both fighters has aggravated boxing fans for about four years.
But the unbeaten Mayweather contends that Pacquiao’s affiliation with promoter Bob Arum is the main reason the fight will never take place.
"We all know the Pacquiao fight, at this particular time, will never happen, and the reason why the fight won't happen is because I will never do business with Bob Arum again in life, and Pacquiao is Bob Arum's fighter," Mayweather told FightHype.com.
"Bob Arum gives Pacquiao a date, whereas Floyd Mayweather gives Floyd Mayweather his own date. I will be fighting again in May and I will be fighting again in September."
Mayweather and Arum have not gotten along since "Money" dumped his former promoter and started his own company.
Mayweather continued: "I'm gonna give you two reasons the Pacquiao fight is not going to happen. Like I said before, I will never do business with Bob Arum in life, but I don't wish him nothing bad.
"And I want to see Manny Pacquiao's real pay-per-view numbers. Get his pay-per-view numbers from his last fight and compare them to my pay-per-view numbers with Canelo Alvarez. Did he do 1.2 million homes? Has he done 1 million homes?"

excuses, since when does a fighter dictate who he fights ? REAL champions like sanchez fought gomez, pryor fought alexis, hagler fought hearns, sugar ray fought hagler, hearns, duran, etc. This guy is a fraud,just like that idiot bronner. Manny beats the excuse worse than bronner got it guaranteed ,thats the reason floyd.manny is faster, more accurate, better boxer period.Been watching fights since the 70s,I know greatness when i see it, and frankly ,you will never be respected by real boxing fans.
Some more excuses by this joker. They never end. Champions fight the best and give no excuses. That’s all that’s been heard from this moron since day one. He fights a bunch of fighters that are one or two weight classes lower or goes up and uses catch weights like he did with Canelo. Funniest comment is he thinks those pay per view fights that are ranked 1&2 were because of him!! What a joke! It’s from all the Mexicans buying pay per view fights following de la Hoya and canelo. They have more fans than you do!! The rest that buy PPV is just to see you get your head knocked off!! What an idiot!!
Haha pussy he know he might loos is why
He s a champion
FUCK OFF with your ppv excuses and shit ass reasons about bob arum. CHAMPIONS FIGHT THE BEST
I hope this fight happens!
punk! he made 100 excuses already , a real fighter puts there ego aside and just fights
The mega fight will happen if its on mayweather and golden boy promotion!! that’s it! right d highest pay per view in boxing history 1st is for mayweather vs canelo, next is mayweather vs de la hoya. all that was for golden boy and mayweather promotion!
yeah i agree Floyd!! lot of people didn’t know that.. I am a Filipino who wish to see the mega fight against our pambansang kamao. boxing is business ever and it depends on the promoter, not on the boxer!! lot of people didn’t knw the truth about boxing!!!
Oh yeah, because robert gurerro was a real ppv draw smfh, just disgusting. This dude fights mexicans and acts like they are his numbers, so damn funny. I wonder what it must be like living in your own little world…
Floyd , I thought you were a business man..put differences aside and make the fight happen,,you will be questioned for the rest of your life if you dont .
Mayweather doesn’t fight anyone who has a chance to beat him.
Floyd keep running you’re not the money team you’re the track team you fake ass lame.
sounds like a excuse over here in england,you beat our ricky at your weight not is and you are making excuses to fight manny its as plain as that
dont know about money mayweather more like dodge chicken mayweather
mayweather is afaid of pacman that’s why the fight wont happen, he’s full of excuses.
Mayweather should just fight pac man win or lose noone can take nothing from mayweather or pac man there will never be another mayweather show and prove your hard work and dedication your a legend no matter what .
Sorry Mayweather, but we ask know you don’t want to blemish your record by chasing a fight with a Manny! It should be about the fight not the money in this case. You gonna make more then ever with the pay per view on this one. Do what’s your excuse again? Oh yeah Pacquiaos management. Lame excuse.
Floyd is afraid. He has always been afraid. Nothing new here.
I think floyd mayweather will win every fight in his career
Good for you Floyd. Stand your ground.
I will never watch a Mayweather fight again for the rest of my life unless its Manny. Tired of Floyd’s excuses. Although, Bob Arum is the white Don King… Lol
Yea maywether your a duck king I thought it was because of many not wanting to take the blood test I know me personally I order your fight to see if you get knocked out as a boxer my self all props to your skill but you mouth needs to be broken boii
They didn’t pay to see you they paid to see Conelo and you know it Floyd
Nobody you have fought has pay per view buys lmao get the fuck out of here!
