"We have to treat it one fight at a time," said Arum, who flew in from Las Vegas all the way here to personally attend the open-day workout Manny Pacquiao did for members of the media in his training camp.
"No, no, no," arum repeatedly said as he was asked a number of times about Pacquiao taking on the 32-year-old Mayweather on his next fight.
