Bob Arum talking, Mayweather sending SHOTS photos, network executives Tweeting, Al Haymon being thanked somewhere and etc.
When will it all end?
Here is what Arum had to say today.
Arum told The Associated Press that the rival networks have come to terms on an announcing team and other details for the pay-per-view blockbuster, and that talks this week have narrowed the remaining differences between the Mayweather and Pacquiao camps.
“We had four issues and we resolved two,” said Arum, who promotes Pacquiao. “Now we’re working on resolving the other two. Unless something else comes up at the last minute, that’s what my take is.”
Of course, this was denied almost immediately.
Arum told AP the networks made deal for #MayweatherPacquiao. 1 network told me just now "not true." Waiting to hear back from the other.

BOTH networks have told me in the past half hour that, no, they DO NOT have #MayweatherPacquiao broadcast deal, regardless of Arum comments.
