This is coming from Bob Arum, so you have to take it with grain of salt, because we have been hearing it will be done in a few days, for a few years now.
But, here is what Bob had to say to the NY Post.
“Everybody is doing the right thing,” Arum told The Post on Friday. “We’re looking to complete the paperwork. Everything is moving in the right direction. Hopefully, the next couple of days it will get done.”
“I think it helped a lot because we were all putting papers together, and there was still a question as to whether Floyd really wanted to do the fight or not,” Arum said. “Based on the meeting with Pacquiao in the hotel suite, Manny and [Pacquiao adviser] Michael Koncz were convinced Floyd absolutely wants to do the fight.”
We will see, don’t be shocked if it falls through at the last minute, but it is ok to be cautiously optimistic.
