Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather is Plan A, Pacquiao is Ready To Go

[cupocity303]

What Arum doesn't get is that we no longer live in the 70's, 80's, 90's or even the early 2000's. Everything you say can be traced back in a manner of minutes by normal people, via youtube, text on the internet.

They have obviously made a decision privately but are talking a different game publicly for damage control. Except it doesn't work. YOU ARE LIVING IN THE AGE OF THE INTERNET. Where every Arm-Chair warrior is a journalist/detective.

I don't care what anyone says in this forum. After reading this interview, now I definitely know that Boxingscene is in Bob Arum's pocket. Aside from the fact that Top Rank advertizes in Boxingscene, it's so apparent that the interview was staged by the obvious questions and answers of the interview. Alot of people in this forum will not get what Im saying cause their a bunch of pot smoking idiots lol.

I do praise Top Ranks antics. I am not a Bob Arum nut hugger but I do think the old bastard is a brilliant business man. I trully think that from a business perspective, he's telling the truth. Im a business man myself and I get what he's doing. I hope this announcement gets Mayweather to do the right thing and get the fight done in a serious and professional manner.

Exactly! I myself is also a business man and knows exactly what Arum is sayin.

All these idiots in this forum can just read what they see and talk smack aka jibberish like they know what they be talking about but dont know nothing about the inside job.

First, Mayweather can announce his representative for negotiations instead of barking behind a digital fence to save face. That is what the other side is asking for. It isn't much to ask for.

Right, and they are also asking for a different date than what Mayweather intended, in a different arena, and may not be available til June, and blah blah blah. We are all tired of hearing this and that, we know excuses when we hear them, and it sounds like even Pacquiao supporters are starting to realize Arum is full of it. So you stay behind your digital fence and keep talking, but we know the truth.

Mayweather already announced his representatives. It is Richard Schafer, CEO of GBP -- the same Richard Schafer who tried to initiate negotiations with Arum through Judge Daniel Weinstein in November 2011. Since you have selective memory, I will remind you of the outcome. Arum said he was not interested in negotiating a Mayweather/Pac fight because he was working on a fourth fight with Marquez!

Is it too much to ask for you and the other *******s to pull your head out of Pac's and Arum's a$$ long enough to see and smell the truth.

Bob has Floyd's number. Why doesn't he give Floyd a call and ask who's representing him?

Hell, if he can fly to the Philippines to meet with Manny, he can fly to Vegas and meet with Floyd to negotiate.

They're both in Vegas. They can cartwheel to each others homes. However, Bob is too out of shape to do that, so Floyd will have to take initiative. Besides, Floyd says he is his own boss, so let him decide when it happens, right?

Lol my point exactly. Mayweather has nothing to hide from, it is always Top Rank with a reason why this fight shouldn't happen. But Arum, Roach, and the rest of Pacquiao's camp are quick to point the finger at everyone else when they get called out about anything to do with Mayweather. IMO, if they wanted it to happen so badly they would continue talking about it in the media and trying to set it up like Money, instead of ducking at every opportunity.

Anyone that believes Floyd isnt afraid to lose his little 0 needs to walk out in traffic blindfolded

Anyone who believes Arum should stop following dirty old men into the bushes.

Unless they really like it, of course

It's you with selective memory. Top Rank didn't send the letter of denial. Oops you left that out.

The sentence:

Exactly! I myself is also a business man and knows exactly what Arum is sayin.

Should read:

I myself am also a businessman and I know exactly what Arum is saying.
