Promoter tries to salvage Pacquiao/Mayweather bout
Arum delivers what he says would be his last proposal: Promoter Bob Arum delivered what he said would be his last proposal to salvage the fight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. A blood-testing dispute has disrupted plans for the March 13 showdown.
Under Arum's proposal, the Nevada Athletic Commission would have the final say in how much testing there would be for the fight and when it would take place. Preparations for the fight would go forward and there would be three blood tests — none within 30 days of the fight — unless the commission decided otherwise at a mid-January meeting.
" We will go along with what the Nevada commission decides. We will give them a blank check," Arum said. "We want this fight to go forward."
Arum said Pacquiao's side would go no further than the proposal, and added he will begin negotiations today with Paul Malignaggi for a March 13 bout
