“My promoter and I, we’ve already agreed to the terms and conditions of whatever he wants. We’re just waiting on the signed contract from him,” Pacquiao said. “That’s the hard part – if they will fight or not. We have to know soon, because if they will not fight, we can move on and choose another opponent.
“We have a deadline … this month.”
“The fans deserve this fight,” Pacquiao said. “No more will people bother me, ‘Can this fight happen?’ It’s time to make it happen. We’re waiting on a signed contract from him.”

Manny Pacquiao goes on to talk about Floyd’s undefeated record but states that signing the contract will help prove who’s really No. 1!
“The challenge is … we know he’s undefeated and claiming he’s No. 1 pound-for-pound in the world,” Pacquiao said. “I just want to prove who’s really No. 1. If the fight is on and he beats me, I’m really convinced he is No. 1. If not, I’m No. 1.”
