There has recently been more development in the highly requested boxing match between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr.

For years the two boxing camps have been back and forth with reasons as to why this fight can or cannot happen, or what needs to happen in order for it to transpire. It would seem Pacquiao has finally taken to the forefront to offer the boxer an ultimatum.

Pacquiao has agreed to fight Mayweather on May 2^nd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, however Mayweather has insisted there is a long way to go before the deal for the fight is finally closed.

In an interview with DJ Whoo Kid, Mayweather responded with these comments:

"What everyone's been saying is false. I've been saying this for a long time, Pacquiao has no say because he fights for Top Rank Promotions."

"He's not in a position to call the shots right now; he's not the A-side. I have Mayweather Promotions, it's my company."

"Do I want to fight Pacquiao? Absolutely. Are we negotiating? Absolutely. Has the fight been made? Not at all."

"We have been going back and forth communicating with their team. Hopefully we can make this fight happen."

Pacquiao shortly took to Twitter after Mayweather's interview and expressed his thoughts on the situation in the following tweets:

"I can easily beat Floyd Mayweather, I believe that." he said, adding, "If you really care about the fans, you will fight. If you care about yourself, you won't fight."

"Everyone had me as a big underdog to Oscar De La Hoya too. If Mayweather fights me boxing will get an even bigger upset victory."

Pacquiao has admitted that he will find another opponent if Mayweather doesn't agree to fight him by the end of the month.
