Boxing promoter Bob Arum is saying that world champion Floyd Mayweather probably won't take a risky fight against the world's best pound-for-pound fighter Manny Pacquiao. The fight everyone wants may not happen, according to Arum, because Mayweather will do anything to avoid ruining his perfect unbeaten record. Here's what he said:"Psychologically he may not be prepared to do this fight... Now this is me being an amateur psychologist, but Mayweather is so tied up with the fact that nobody has beaten him, that he has a zero on his record, I don't know if he would be willing to go into the ring with anybody that could jeopardize that zero... He is afraid, terrified of losing that zero...That's why he's ducked (Shane) Mosely, (Antonio) Margarito and Cotto, and the question is will he duck Manny Pacquiao because he's so afraid of losing that zero."
