Promoter Bob Arum is still hopeful that he can make the massive super fight between the two pound for pound boxers, Manny Pacquiao and the undefeated American Floyd Mayweather Jr
Arum, whose Top Rank promotes Pacquiao, believes the fight every boxing fan wants to see can happen in November providing Mayweather Jr comes through his May 5 bout and Pac Man turns back the challenge of his yet to be named opponent some time in June.
"What we are trying to accomplish assuming he [Mayweather] is going to fight in May and Manny is going to fight in June, is that we are pressing to see if we can get a contract signed between the two fighters for November," Arum told the Manila Standard.
"That way the people will be assured that the fight is going to happen and there won’t be any of this nonsense which we can put behind us so we can do a huge, huge promotion."
