Posturing continues as Mayweather posts video of meeting with Pacquiao
The posturing in the negotiations for the mega-fight between WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather and WBO champion Manny Pacquiao continues as the undefeated American fighter posted a video of their meeting in Miami.
After a chance encounter in an NBA game between the Miami Heat and the Milwaukee Bucks, Mayweather visited Pacquiao in his suite where the two talked about an hour.
Mayweather posted a photo of their meeting two days ago but now he added short video on his Instagram account.
“You know I congratulate him on his career. He had a wonderful career and I had a wonderful career,” Mayweather said. “But before we leave the sport, of course we have to make this fight happen.”
Pacquiao has stayed quit regarding the meeting but Top Rank Promotions boss Bob Arum has spoken on his fighter's behalf. An announcement was expected on Super Bowl Sunday but the two sides still have not signed the dotted line on what could be the biggest fight in boxing history.
