Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather Driven Crazy When Pacquiao Fights

[Heru]

When they decide to get serious, the smart people will sit down in a room together and work out all the details.

What underhanded slight... And then we wonder why Haymon, Mayweather, and his team have such difficulty negotiating with this man. To keep the peace and get the fight done, they gave Schaefer and GBP the right to negotiate on their behalf, so this is a direct insult to them.

Arum knows a date held doesn't have to be fulfilled, especially if the venue is given sufficient notice. Holding a venue for a certain day is holding a venue for a certain day. If the fight got made, MGM would be reduced to bidding against the other venues. The rumors around the first negotiations had MGM giving one of the more lucrative offers for the fight, even contemplating building a temporary 30000 seat venue.

Notice how Arum is still mentioning Mayweather's pending court cases, as if he didn't just fight Victor Ortiz without a hiccup.

He might be able to manipulate others' perceptions, but not mine. He does not want the fight.

no youre competely missing the point, youre ******ed as there was no point to raise a point that he speculated

this was part of the article

*****He said they got “into the bottom of it” and what they learned was that Pacquiao is not the “little fella” being talked about.

It’s Erik Morales. Yes, Erik Morales. That’s what Arum said.

“You know who the little fellow that they already approached? It’s Erik Morales,” Arum said even without being asked.

“And Erik will confirm it – absolutely. Erik has been approached to make the fight. He’ll take it for the money. I’m sure he’ll take it for the money. Why wouldn’t he?” Arum asked.*********

i hope floyd and co. are as vocal about making this fight a week from now.

although i have a feeling floyd will be "unreachable" somehow

Pac might drop the Law Suit, if FRAUD, pays his Legal FEES, and grows some Balls!!!

Everyone knows Mayweather gets his panties in a twist when Pac fights. Not news. And Pac agreed to EVERYTHING with testing as seen in this article dated after the Ortiz fight. WADA, USADA, Olympic testing with no cutoff, EVERYTHING:

Erik Morales wonders why Pacquiao doesn’t take the random drug testing :




By Jason Kim: Former three division champion Erik Morales (49-6, 34 KO’s) why Manny Pacquiao hasn’t already agreed to take the random blood testing for performance enhancing drugs. Morales, 33, doesn’t quite understand what’s holding Pacquiao up from taking the tests.

Like Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Paulie Malignaggi, Morales is concerned about Pacquiao’s unwillingness to agree to the full random blood testing, saying in an article by Michael Marley at Examiner.com “I don’t know. I am not familiar with drugs. But I must ask then why he [Pacquiao] would object to random testing if he has nothing to hide. If you have nothing to hide, then you agree to take all the tests, all the time.”

Morales has a win over Pacquiao in their first fight in 2005, beating him by a 12 round decision. A year later, Pacquiao avenged the defeat, beating Morales in back to back fights in 2006 by stoppage. Morales has had weight problems since his win over Pacquiao, and has been forced to take off massive amounts of weight just to make his weight class.

Morales retired from boxing after losing a controversial 12 round decision to David Diaz in August 2008. Three years later, Morales made a comeback and defeated Jose Alfaro by a 12 round decision last March at welterweight. Morales has taken off more weight since then and will be fighting Willie Limond(33-2, 8 KO’s) on September 11th at light welterweight at the Monumental Plaza de Toros, Mexico City, Distrito Federal, Mexico.

It will be an interesting fight while it lasts because Limond likes to slug, as does Morales. Limond should be a big test to see how much Morales has left in the tank. If Morales looks as bad as he did against Alfaro, then Limond could very well pull of an upset. I had Alfaro beating Morales by a significant margin.

Yeah I'm Mr Bob Arum and I want to do negotiations the honest way.

Wait wait.......10 days after Mayweather beat Mosley, Bob Arum announces that Pacs next fight will be November 13th and that he had two venues ready to go.(cowboys stadium and Mgm)

Then said that they want the Mayweather fight while not even contacting Al Haymon.
Oh yeah and then put up that dumb a$$ countdown clock.

[ModernTalking]

It doesnt matter what Mayweather does ion his career, how much money he makes (and blows), or how many PPV's he sells by using Manny's name all the time....Floyd will be remembered for his blatant refusal to challenge Manny Pacquiao for the P4P Title. All bark, no bite. In 7 years when he's driving an 86 Cadillac around town living in an apartment on Lake Mead st, people will only remember how he ducked Pac Man.

This **** is going to be hilarious on Beyond The Glory. Floyd is going to accuse PAC of not taking the test but everybody is going to call Floyd a coward. they're going to talk about how scared Floyd was of Pacquiao LOL.

[edgarg]

does it remind you of the website that Bob Arum put up with the countdown and the gimmick 12 AM conference call, too? Were the apparent negotiations he had with Ross Greenburg private?

You ARE a ****** bugger with your "countdown" nonsense. Top Rank had tried all kind of ways to brihg the fight on, a maywather was ecading/avoiding them. The time was passing and to keep the schedule MannyP wanted, they NEEDED a definite yes no. So the last resort, and to show that they were really serious that it WAS the last resort, they instiituted a countdown. A VERY cmmon practice in any kind of business where there are time constraints,even if it isn't always advertised in the cheap press.

So........try to get some sense..will you, please.

[rckdees]

bob arum is a scumbag. most long time boxing fans know this and as soon as he has no more use for pacquiao his fans will know this too.

[richardt]

Someone is still talking about the countdown by Arum???? Read the latest news and come out of deep freeze. Pac accepted ALL demands with no cutoff including WADA and USADA. Read the article below....it is from after the Ortiz fight, not this dum**** crap about a countdown from long ago.
