Floyd Mayweather made it very clear to Manny Pacquiao that the two boxers need to make a fight happen this time around.
Both Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao are legends in the boxing world, but they have still not figured out an agreement to where they can fight each other. It is something that fans have been dying to see for years, and there is a chance that it could happen in 2015.

The two sides have been discussing a potential May fight for over a month now, but there still hasn’t been an agreement reached.
They are both interested in getting something done, and there have been some reported verbal agreements along the way. Things like the venue have been agreed upon, but there are other snags that have to be worked out in order to get a fight scheduled.
Mayweather posted a video to his Instagram account of he and Pacquiao having a conversation, in which, Mayweather was making it clear that the two sides have to make the fight happen this time around. Coming up short and ending negotiations without a fight would be devastating to the fans, and Floyd isn’t willing to let that happen without a fight.
Take a look at the video that Mayweather posted on Instagram for yourself:
It is certainly good to see this type of conversation taking place, and perhaps there is a growing chance that the fight will indeed take place. May 2nd has been set as a target date, which means that the two sides are beginning to run out of time to come to an agreement.
These talks between Mayweather and Pacquiao have been going on since 2009, but they haven’t been able to come to terms on an agreement. There is definite optimism surrounding this attempt both these two fighters, but it is far from being a done deal.
