Koncz: Pacquiao will fight Mayweather at the end of May
January 10th, 2012
By Chris Williams: Michael Koncz, the trusted personal advisor to WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao, is saying that Pacquiao has agreed to fight WBC Floyd Mayweather Jr., but with a couple of conditions: 1.) the fight has to take place at the end of May rather than on May 5th the date that Mayweather wants it to take place. 2.) The fight must be fought in a larger arena than the MGM Grand.
Pacquiao reportedly approved the message that Koncz sent.
The outdoor stadium will be put together to hold between 45,000 to 50,000 fans. Arum believes that an extra $20 million can be squeezed out from the larger outdoor arena. The MGM Grand has a seating capacity of 16,800 fans and if Arum can have a 50,000 seat stadium built on the cheap, then they could triple the earnings from ticket sales. That sounds like a good idea. I would go along with that if I were Mayweather.

Pac is a fraud, Floyd can’t afford on banking on a stadium being built get real arum knows pac will get destroyed
I just hope the fight happens…
WE WILL WITNESS THE LIL FELLA GET DISMANTLED LIKE A SCHOOL GIRL. PACQUIAO WILL GET STOPPED…STOPPED!!! ROUND #10
@mayweather loves nevada …what makes me laugh is the fact that pacquiao is bob arum slave! pacquiao, hey boss can me fight mayweather?NO BOY SHUT AND GO FIX ME SOMETHING TO EAT.OK BOSS, ME SORRY,I’LL BE A GOOD SLAVE.ME DO WHAT ME MASTER TELLS ME TO DO .
what makes me laugh mayweather cant make the effort to go public on tv and fight pacman ,, but he can drive to josie harris home fight her and threaten kids his own kids ..
nooooooo hes fighting josie harris
i think this proves to everyone that, what alex ariza said was true about, team pacquiao wanting no parts of mayweather.i thought pacquiao was going to demand the mayweather fight on may 5th? this just goes to show you that pacquiao cant make a move without his masters permission.

miss pacman is running out of excuses.
-my cut is healed im taking cinco de mayo for marquez 3
-my cut is not totally healed
i can fight mayweather any day and any venue
-i want may 31 because floyd cant fight on this date, i want bigger venue. lol
nice comment, full of gelatin like your brain….hahaha
@PAKYAW SUPOT
Manny give honor for his country…what about you? just jerking around!
Pacquiao is looking very, very bad right now, Koncz & Arum know May 5th is booked, do they think us fans are stupid? Everyone know’s it’s Arum holding up this fight.
so whats the difference bet. may 5 and may 31. you i d i o t s and p h a c k fa ces.
fmj is only ‘talk fighting’. where is d contract?
Bottom Line:
If Floyd doesn’t agree it proves he never wanted to fight Manny all along.
What’s 3 weeks of waiting? There have been times in the past that Floyd himself got injured and had to delay a fight.
What’s wrong with making $20 million more? Are you that greedy and evil Floyd that you won’t do it just so you’re opponent won’t make more cash? You probably are like that Mr. Mayweather.
Manny has put the ball in Floyd’s court once and for all. Will Floyd be A MAN OR A MOUSE?
Stay tuned…
Hmm let’s see here…
Floyd wants the larger purse. Agreed.
Floyd wants to enter the ring last. Agreed.
Floyd wants his name announced in the ring last. Agreed.
Floyd wants Las Vegas as the site. Agreed.
Floyd wants Manny to take any test. Agreed.
Floyd wants to go to jail in June. Agreed.
Manny wants 45,000 seat venue. Manny wants May 26.
Will Floyd agree? I doubt it. He doesn’t want TO WIN AS BAD AS MANNY.
MANNY GOT CUT ON HIS P*NIS
PATULI SA DOODONG MANNY

@ Angel …. the capacity of Thomas & Mack Center is 18,776 … Sam Boyd Stadium is outdoor so it will not work.
Another Floydoit!!!
@ Angel …. the capacity of Thomas & Mack Center is 18,776
Has anybody ever heard of the University of Las Vegas Arena. My God, arum and manny are just full of excuses.
I don’t see any problem in the later of May and for sure the Judge will agree due to the economic reasons that the City of Las Vegas can gain in this mega fight. Also, Floyd will be asking a bigger purse maybe $50 million or more. What is 3 weeks delay if they really want to fight?
Pacquiao has agreed to RBT and a smaller share of the purse. Floydie has just have to agree to a change of date and venue.
I think that is fair enough.
FLOYDIE………………Your turn.
It doesn’t matter where they fight, they are gonna make good money. All these stadium excuses and whatever else is nothing but a cop out reasons not to fight. Pacquaio and his crew should man up, step up and take the beat down.
@jesusjones
no, really these demands are actually reasonable
LET THERE BE NO FIGHT BETWEEN MANNY AND FLOYD.
EXCUSES AFTER EXCUSES …
this can work folks, personally, i think pac is tired of the criticism
Chris Williams
“I would go along with that if I were Mayweather.” LMAO! Getting weak on the knee’s ehh Chris.
excusess after excuses.
pacquiao fans dont want this fight.
FLOYD IS A AFRAID OF END OF MAY SCHEDULE WHILE PACMAN IS AFRAID OF MAY 5.
WHAT WENT WRONG BETWEEN THE TWO ???????
LETS BANG THEIR HEADS….
@hoax
c’mon you should have faith in your national hero. keep him on may 5th so we fans can witnessed your hero getting salvage by mayweather.
YOU CAN SAY PACQUIAO IS AFRAID IF FLOYD ACCEPTS THE END OF MAY SCHEDULE AND PACQUIAO RETRACTS.
FIGHT MANNY ON END OF MAY AND THE WORLD WILL GO SILENCE EVERY ROUND.
The date should be keeped.like i mentioned a few days ago if the idea is for more seating capacity the corner blvd @ the mgm would be a good place right at the corner for way.
WHAT SAY YOU FLOYD ??
COME ON AND FIGHT MANNY AT THE END OF MAY …. ITS JUST A MATTER OF WEEKS DIFFERENCE.
THE BALL IS ON FLOYD HANDS .. SORRY .. FLOYD’S MOUTH.
miss pacquiao should make an public apology saying his too afraid to face mayweather so we fans can now move on. just stop your lame excuses we’re tired of it.
i thought you’re willing to fight floyd even in jail? so why you cant figth on may 5th? you want a bigger stadium but you’ve said you want to fight floyd in jail. c’mon mgm is a lot bigger than country clark detention center.
pacquiao is a liar, bob is a good man. he just protecting his cash cow wishes to stay him away with floyd. period!!
Look at all the Fraud idiots coming up with excuse after excuse. Stop your crying byatchs, if Fraud turns it down he should be sent to prison NOW as he is not fighting Pacquiao.
To you idiots moaning about the date..
May 5th was a date penciled in for the MGM by Fraud Maynever, he did not name his opponent FACT. You do not set a time and date to fight unless you have started negotiations with the fighter you are supposed to be fighting that date FACT
So Pacquiao was supposed to be give a list of 4 names:- Bradley, Marquez, Peterson or Cotto yet he asked for Maynever
So why are you all sniping at Pacquiao, he has come out publicly given his answer it is now Maynever who should say OK You take RBT and we got a fight.
Thats to close to june 1st. Mayweather be stressin bout jail at the end of may. It has to be at the begining or middle at the least
I hope they fight.
pacman is scared. take the may 5th no more excuses give the fans what they want.
There both scared. Just fight damit
No stadium will be built just to get it approved takes months. Arum said will only do fight on June 9th. And if manny sais cut is ok why would.he want bout end of may…. These doods don’t want this fight and that includes manny worrier?? Don’t thnk so. More like a.vulter looking for dead prey.
HI
Mayweather has to go to jail end of may pacfraud knows that run pacfraud run
This fight will never happen. If Floyd wants to fight the Pacman then he should go to the media and NOT use tweeter. Seriously, tweeter? WTF. If the Pacman agrees to fight him in May 5, I bet you all, Floyds excuse will be “I never tweeted him?”. “Someone has use my tweeter account to say all those things”.
IS ALL 4 D MEDIA N PROMOTION. EVERY1 GETIN HYPE 4 NUN. PPL GET HYPE AFTER THEY SIGN D CONTRACT. IF THIS FIGHT HAPPENS IS GONNA B IN DECEMBER. N IF NOT THEN BY TIME THEY DECIDE TO FIGHT THEY GONNA B 2 OLD N W.E LOOSES THATS GONNA B D EXCUSE. MOSTLIKLY PBM GOT AN OPPONENT N SO DOES MP. THEY HAV TO KEEP HYPING IT UP TO KEEP BUILDING D FIGHT UP. BASICALLY THEY BEIN PUPPETS.
ok may 5th is the date its better for the fight to be in mgm grand because it will be made up for in ppv buys arum says they can get 20mill extra they can get 30mill extra from ppv buys
UNFORTUNATELY Arum has last word.
@eman
pacquiao is scared. may 5th is the date. pacquiao knows mayweather cant fight in may 31 because due to his obligation incarnation in las vegas country jail.
scared,scared,scared
IT IS REASONABLE TO PUT THE FIGHT IN A BIGGER ARENA AND IN A LATER DATE AND I WILL PRAISE IF MAYWEATHER AGREED TO THIS TERMS AND I WILL ERASE MY DOUBT THAT HE’S AFRAID OF THE PACMAN.
thats right make an impossible negotiation that you know floyd or nobody will agree with just to save a little face and still not give the fight fans what they deserve. sick of both these guys period.
Just in!! Heard from the great grapevine source it’s going to be Canelo after all who will be Floyd’s dancing partner on Cinco de Mayo. Now is 10:42 pm eastern time.
miss pacquaio knows mayweather is going to jail on june 1st. just like before. pacquiao is scared
want some example?
pacquiao cant fight on may 5th
pacquiao is going to fight on may 5th for marquez 3
pacquiao cant fight on may 5th
pacquiao willing to fight mayweather in may 31. because he knos mayweather is going to jail in june 1.
pacquiao is so scared.
he said he is willing to fight floyd even in jail in his 90 day jail term. but now pacquiao saying he cant fight in may 5.
why are they plAYING THIS DUMB GAME
bullsh%t, mayweather booked a date on may 5 now saying end of may?? I dont know, Koncz and Arum are both snakes.
Me too!!!
This is HUUUUUGGGGEEE
I can’t believe I’ll see the day when Chris Williams will somewhat agree with pacquiao’s side. If Chris can compromise, anybody can. We all just want to see the fight. Hopefully, Floyd will take it and then all of us can enjoy the fight.
I’ll believe it when I see it…….
