Comments Thread For: Arum: I Don't Think Mayweather Ever Fights Pacquiao

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum is not buying anything Floyd Mayweather Jr. states with respect to a potential fight with Manny Pacquiao in the future. Arum, who promoted Mayweather for a decade, says the WBC/WBA welterweight champion does not like fighting southpaws.

"I promoted the guy for ten years and I know how difficult it was to get him in the ring with any southpaw. When you talk about a southpaw who can move like Manny, that's not the kind of opponent that Mayweather feels he would do well against. That's the problem. If Manny agreed to fight right-handed, the fight would be agreed in five minutes," Arum told Gareth Davies of The Telegraph.

If Arum steps aside. It can happen.

just last week they were uncharacteristically calling out Floyd

now that he just went 9-3 against his biggest challenge bob and manny halt their call outs

I understand the logic though. if Marcos at his best was only able to win 4 rounds, we would only win 2 at most

So, I guess the "secret" talks about HBO/SHO regarding the Mayweather v Pacqauio fight was BS. You gotta love Arum. On one hand he says they can fight twice in 2015 and on the other hand he says it's not going to ever happen. Lol.

So much for Manny saying negotioans were on underway. Lol.

Have they broken ground on that new stadium yet?

You say this while you use his name and the lies about negotiations with Floyd as part of hyping up Pacquiao's fight. The ****ing snake. Again, he only does it when Pac needs the hype for an upcoming fight. Magically, the rest of the time the "talks with Floyd" are non-existent.

I'm over the whole mayweather/pacquiao fight, and all the bull***** baggage it's carried.

[The Gambler1981]

Step 1: Say there are top secret negotiations going on, even though they are no longer top secret now because you just blabbed.

Step 2: Wait for Floyd to say nothing is happening which is the truth

Step 3: Say something along the lines of "I used to promote Floyd for a long time and you know he hates fighting southpaws so getting him in the ring with one is next to impossible.

Step 4: Awkward silence about the matter letting the press stew and speculate by which time the fight should be on the horizon.

Start back at step one when then next fight is signed up.

how come the first few comments are always Flowmos in these type of threads?

Do they just lurk on here waiting for a moment to pounce? they are always the first replies.

Anyway there are two people who don't want the fight, Mayweather and Arum.

Bob arum "yesterday I was lying, today I'm telling the truth."

This fight won't happen
