Arum hopes to convince Floyd Jr to fight Pacman
Top Rank Promotions CEO Bob Arum said that his, and Golden Boy Promotions counterpart Richard Schaefer's number one priority, is to convince Floyd Mayweather Jr. to fight Manny Pacquiao on November 13. Arum said they will give Mayweather until middle of this month to sign the contract and finally seal the deal on the fight the world wants to happen. The Top Rank big boss said now that all issues â purse split and the random drug testing protocol that both camps agreed on â regarding the fight have been resolved, and it is all up to Mayweather whether he wants to fight Pacquiao or not. "The question is whether Mayweather is willing to go into the ring this year. It's up to him. He may not want to do it. If Mayweather wants to fight in November, I believe the fight will be made," said Arum.
