According to promoter Bob Arum, Pacquiao has already said yes to all the terms of what would be the industry's richest fight in history. The fight with Mayweather Jr. is something that fans worldwide have been wanting for almost half a decade now.

The only question now is if Mayweather is going to sign the contract that could be worth $120 million as his paycheck just to get this over with. Arum said that he doesn't want to sound like an antagonist on the matter and say that Mayweather Jr. Would probably still not agree with it, however, reps of the boxer said that it is looking like the reluctant fighter is actually on board this time.

Arum even reported that negotiations with the other camp representatives have resulted in some agreements like the date and location of the fight, which is in MGM Grand in Las Vegas, the split of 60-40 in Mayweather's favor and even the gloves and the boxers that the two will wear.

There is no word yet from Mayweather Jr. that has saidyes to the whole thing. And Arum releasing statements about Pacquiao agreeing to all the terms is to actually create pressure on Mayweather to seal the deal and go on with the fight.

As of the moment, they are still waiting for the unbeatable boxer to sign his name on the document.
