Seems to be the most honest assessment of May - Pac and that makes me sad

[WESS]

Bob's already been exposed of his agenda. Nothing new here.

It's sad that Bob will not stand by Pac and his wishes to make the fight happen. Even after Pac was the better man and agreed to the lesser share, May 5th and random Blood and urine testing...

It's very simple to see that Bob Arum, like Pac's very own team agrees, does not want to make this fight.

Pacquiao needs be more independent and stop letting arum control everything to do with who he fights. i can understand if he was making that much more money but he's not.

Wow schaefer really went In on uncle Bob and Lou!

I think with each passing fight that pac/may have the luster for them to face each other will fade. This fight would have been huge 2 years ago, would have been huge 1 year ago but who knows what will happen in a years time? Pac already should have had an L against Marquez and what will happen if the same thing happens to Floyd? Neither are getting any younger.

Thats the truth right there, Arum is going to milk the TopRank cash cow until its dried up. Than throw him at Mayweather for the very last fight of his career if he hasn't lost by then.

We're already heard various statements from Manny directly, he 's said he'd fight anytime and take less money. Heck he was even quoted on his own official website and then it gets taken down....? If you can't see whats been happening here, you wouldn't see a meteor fall from the sky and land next to you.

I'm willing to bet my left nut that Arum told him shut the fuck up and to say what he tells him to. Manny like always will comply, without hesitation for whatever reason, now here we are again, no closer than we were 2-3 years ago.

Bob Arum needs to disappear.

[jcpryor]

The sad part is he was absolutely right: People are really that ****** to think Arum wants the fight, and they probably will wait until 2013 to do it, if at all.

Fair enough, I dont expect to see this fight anytime soon too, If JMM is fighting soon and then waiting for his fight contract with Pac that means he has already locked Pac in for November, I dont see Arum letting Pac fight Mayweather in November neither.

[Rapid Counter]

Fingers crossed that both fighters catch an a$$ whopping in there next fight. That will probably be the quickest way you will get to see them face each other. When they both need to cash out.
