Mayweather hates Bob Arum, head of Top Rank, who is Pacquaios promoter. No one really knows the full story but Mayweather insists Arum owes him a lot of money from early on in his career and ripped him off big time and he won't work with him again. I tend to believe there is some truth in that reason. Mayweather was accused of 'ducking' Miguel Cotto for about 2 years as he refused to fight him whilst Arum promoted him. As soon as Cotto split from Arum the fight happened.
Freddie Roach recently admitted that himself and Pacquaio turned down the only solid offer for the fight. Mayweather offered a flat $40M but Pacquaio et al felt they were worth more than that. Since then he firmly blames Mayweather for it not happening.
There have been a load of excuses thrown back and forward but I think the key reason is that neither wants to be seen as the one who backed down and neither wants to lose. Personally I've never thought Pacquaio could beat Mayweather, still don't, but it would have been nice to have had it answered definitively.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017.

Seems to have finally managed to stop letting Groves wind him up. Sports psychologist must be earning his cash.

Froch will destroy him within 6 rounds, thing is, I want Groves to win! I'm expecting something similar to Gatti - Ward, can't see it going the distance.

Said I wouldn't watch the fight after the first fight but with the build up you can't help but be gripped.
Can't stand Eddy Hearn but he's some business man.
Unfortunately think Froch will win with a stoppage, really hope I'm wrong.

I hope I'm very much mistaken, but, I've got a strange feeling this could end up in a huge anti-climax.

Very early stoppage there imo.
Good finish by Degale though, didn't think he was that impressive outwith the 1st round and the finish though.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Too early for Degale fight, not seen anyone stopped after a miss before :). He was gonna knock him out though, best I've seen him fight.
