Comments Thread For: Arum: Floyd Mayweather is Fighting Erik Morales Next

[switchsouthpaw]

When he made that statement after the Ortiz fight he was making an example of what the media likes to hear. Blame yourself for not being able to understand the interview.

Huh?......

I know what you said and I saw that last week. Apparently you didn't see the entire thing or are eating something like Taco Bell. Earlier Floyd says Pacquiao this and that "media wants to hear" smack, but later on he is speechless when the female host brings up the subject in a more direct manner. Floyd pulled his bait and switch again, as naturally as ever. Much faster than the "Pacquiao you're next" wolf cry, don't you think?

Lets not also forget Arum's quote about Floyd's chin and Manny's right hand. Are you that ****** to ignore Arum's contradiction? Is your hatred for one man so strong it blinds your fair judgement? It goes from Floyd does not want to fight Manny and when Floyd's camp shows interest its Moralles instead.

Youre still pretending to be more ****** than you actually are. Theres a reason why Bob Arum always contradict himself with these statements cause he knows no matter what he says theres Floyd haters thats willing to believe anything negative about him. Didnt Pacquiao say last month that Floyd is preparing for his fight with Victor Ortiz? Why is Bob Arum avoiding the fight even after Mayweather's team tries to make the offer? Be real and stop talking crap.

What's similar between Floyd and a *****? They play the butt hurt card and then change the subject when losing a debate.

And why bring up Arum? He's just responding to Floyd's BS with his own.

Why does Floyd need Ellerbe to call out his next opponent? Why do they call out the "little fella?" The "little fella" could be anyone outside of Manny Pacquiao. They simply will not say "Manny Pacquiao" when it comes to making a fight with the pressure on again. However, they can say "focusing on" and other bull**** word(s) with "Manny Pacquiao" in the same sentence.

This is the essence of a point I've tried to make on this site. Some folks just want to hear negative things about Floyd Mayweather; they could care a less about what the source is, or how thin the evidence is behind it, because to them, hating Floyd is all that matters.

The hate that I've come across on some boxing forums borders on delusional, but all the while folks defend these positions as if what they believe is normal.

Because apparently that's all you want to see. Obviously, you don't care to see Floyd back up his trash talk, but you want to be a part of the event the "haters" helped build if the Pacquiao-Mayweather fight ever came to fruition. You fail to see the positive behind what you see as the negative.

BOYCOTT the Mayweather vs Morales FIGHT

Mayweather is a sucker. He is terrified of Manny Pacquiuo. Now he wants to fight a washed up bum like Erik Morales. Disgusting. He will never get real boxing fans respect because all he does is fight bums. He ducked Cotto in his prime, Margarito in his prime, Shane, everybody. He waits till they get old then he wants to fight. Manny will throw him a beaten. He knows that and his corner knows that so they make excuses that he is on steroids. Becaue they are mad SCARED. SUCKERS.

I've seen Floyd back up his "trash talk" his whole career, and simply because he hasn't fought someone that’s currently in the spotlight I don't automatically conclude he's afraid or a terrible person. The business behind the fight game is complex and very, very greedy. “Fans?seem unable to grasp this concept that boxing isn't just a sport they enjoy, it's a business, and therefore the business interests are going to put on the fights that are most profitable with the least amount of risk. I just don't see a reason to blame Floyd for this.

The event builds itself because of who both fighters are. Maybe the "haters" add something, I'm just not seeing what it is friend, sorry...

Youre a blind hater. Actual evidence and common sense does not work with you. Good job telling me im crying when youre the one with no explanation as to why Arum is contradicting himself. Do you think hating is going to make you feel any better about yourself? Im beginning to believe you hate yourself more than you hate Floyd.

[GRUSTLER]

Let us just face facts and those are, that Bob Arum does not want to make this fight with Mayweather. Here's a guy who has been talking about Floyd continuously about how Floyd turned downed a deal during a second and 3rd negotiation, then he wanted a 100MIL. Dude even broke out the Top Rank clock, all to make him look like he was the one that wanted to make the fight but during the first and only official negotiation when all were at the table, Arum snatched Pac away from the table to make a fight with a loser fighter Clottey because of a disagreement on a random blood test? Now Floyd has finally implicated that he wants to fight Pac and Arum has gone out of his way to discredit the thought but prior he was trying to persuade us that he was going all out of his way to make the fight happen but Manny has had his opponents already waiting for him to finish fighting. It's ridiulous. Bob Arum is all about his paper and he is milking Manny and all his other fighters. He don't even want to break bread with other promoters and that is a fact by how he had Mosley and Marquez leave Golden Boy to get a chance at Pac AND Pac fans expect me to believe that Floyd is the one holding up this fight? The only reason people would think Floyd is holding up the fight is because of the blood tests but if that is all to it then just take the damn tests. I'm very curious to see what happens after Pac/Marquez 3 IF Pac wins.

The "hate" is publicity that adds significantly to the building of an event you are talking about. The same as *****s adding significance to Pacquiao as they hate, whether they like it or not. The same as promoters spewing BS regularly. It's part of the territory. You say you hate this kind of hate game, so maybe you should stick to just watching the fights if you're that type of fan.
