Comments Thread For: Arum Rips Mayweather's Claims Over Negotiations

[empiricix]

Singing a different tune. As in, prior to the Margarito bout. Why?

You keep on focusing on the past. I already concede for the sake of argument that there was no second round of negotiations (despite all the facts to the contrary).

As a true boxing fan, do you really want to see Floyd and Pac fight in the ring? Then, let's stop harping on the past - who caused what, who said what.

The Philippine Daily Inquirer, the country's largest and most respected newspaper, and ABS-CBN News, the largest TV network, ran separate interviews with Pac and Arum before and after the Margarito fight in which both stated that they will accept Floyd's demand for unlimited testing. All Floyd has to do is express his willingness to fight. All Pinoy boxing fans are aware of these interviews.

ALL FLOYD HAS TO DO IS SAY THAT HE IS WILLING TO FIGHT. BUT HE TOLD ZAB THAT HE IS FINISHED WITH BOXING.

This is the plain and simple truth of the matter that no one in his right mind will deny.

What we do know about this so-called second negotiation was that Manny still refused to take full testing. So what's to discuss?

You're such a pathetic *****, you didn't even answer his question about Greenburg - you totally avoided it because there is no such thing as being a 'neutral boxing fan' in your blood. You are so confident that Manny refused to take full testing as if you read a contract. Even if that's the case, are you admitting that negotiation DID took place? So now you're saying Arum is telling the truth? Make up your mind. I don't get why people even debate with you thinking they'll have a fair conversation.

This is clearly a case of neither fighters wanting the fight.

Mayweather with all his excuses of taking a vacation, no negotiations taking place, and other bull**** clearly doesn't want the fight.

And Pacquiao with this whole I'll take the drug test, but I need a 30 day, no 24 day, make that 14 day, ok ok 7 day cut off, is just ridiculous. He also doesn't want the fight.

Fans should get wise to the fact that these guys clearly don't want each other. If they did the fight would have been made a year ago.

Clearly. Floyd and Pac fans are delusional. the only FACTS we have are that there is no fight made, therefore, they don't want the fight. If they wanted it, it would get made.

Great fn post.

He has said it on numerous occasions. He said it this week. He said it at the end of October. November. Nothing's changed. When Manny is ready to take full testing the fight will happen. But every time there is an opportunity to negotiate, Manny isn't interested in taking full testing. Now read what I just wrote. All fact.

[AFighter4U]

Actually, I never flip flopped along with him. Do I think 14 days is more fair than 24? Sure. And that was the circumstance then. But I've never supported it and even wrote that in that thread. Stop, it's embarrassing. You wanna see a flip flop? Just watch what Manny and his band of buffoons say next. Of course, you'd rather concentrate on me, not them, right? Just know that your statement is an admission that Manny Pacquiao is the reason the fight never occurred.

is that your excuse?

weak.

you're right. your pithy excuse is indeed embarrassing and you should stop.

let me get your ridiculous logic here:

14 is fair when compared to 24.

but 7 is not fair when compared to 14?


Sigh. Let me enlighten you a bit. The circumstances then was that floyd said 14 days was fair.

That's why you agreed with it.

And floyd now says 14 days is no longer fair. So you agree with him again.

He flip-flopped and so did you.

end of story.

and FYI, i believe that BOTH Pac and Floyd are the reason the fight didn't happen, which is why i always say that i'm hoping Pac would change his mind AGAIN (from 7 days to 0 days) and officially agree to the testing up to the fight night.

"And I assume Haymon advised Floyd that we were negotiating the fight through Greenburg. But (saying) we didn't reach out to Haymon was total nonsense,"

Did anyone catch this ? hahahahahahahahahahahah

Of course.

Some didn't though.

Whether a negotiation existed or not, it does not matter if Pacquiao was unwilling to take full testing. So what does it matter? When pressed during his whole "countdown" crap, Arum admitted that he not willing to offer anything other than a 14 day cutoff. So maya...what else needs to be said?

Ok, have it your way. He flip flopped and so did I. Only one of us is responsible for making the fight. Guess who flip flopped his way out? Must be me.
