Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather - The Only Impediment in a Deal

[bigjavi973]

It was not a low ball offer he was calling Manny's bluff after being openly challenged and having Manny run his mouth about how he would take less money just to make it happen he wanted it so badly.

Also Floyd stated Manny wanted to fight him because of his tax issues just recently, that wasn't even a full year ago well after Floyd offered him 40 mil, the two are not related so try again.

Screaming and yelling? You just wrote in all caps. All caps

What is Arum doing to prevent the fight? Second time I've asked and no reply. Or you just going to keep screaming that it's Arum with no reasoning behind it

I'll give just one example. In early 2012, Manny was going to be ready to fight in May. Then Floyd was granted an extension so he could fight in May as well. Bob took Manny to see his step son in law to get the cut (we assume) from the Nov 2011 JMM fight examined. Son in law says Manny can't get back to training until April so he can't fight until June at earliest.

using your son in law in general is a conflict of interest. why wasn't manny taken to the son in law before Bob declared Manny could fight in May 2012? why so long the wait to go see the dr-jmm fight 11/12/11-visit to step son in law -January 2012.

Jeff Roth-step son dr-is a plastic surgeon. what did manny's regular dr say? why didn't any physician that reviewed manny in the 2 months after the fight deem him to need plastic surgery?

1. I do not like needles
2. I want a cut off for drug testing(a cutoff defeats the entire purpose)
3. I have other options
4. I want more then 40 million even though its a career payday
5. I can make more money in China
6. I am going to resign with Arum
7. I am going to fight Rios and Chris Alg while calling you a cherry picker


I guess none of those qualify as excuses.

2. Cut off testing 14 days was floyds idea, instead of a standard month.
4. 40 mill no ppv or any type of revenue
5. He actually can make more money in china, he doesnt have to pay taxes like they do here in the us
6. Shame he didnt sign with mayweather promotions, right?
7. Floyd fought maidana twice, whos best win was broner. Guerrero and ortiz's best win was.... berto
I guess if you beat the current hype job, you get a fight with floydie.

ALWAYS BEEN ARUM!!!!

And for years they never wanted to take the test and that was Arum doing. PAc wants the fight but hes a puppet and Arum is the pulling them strings

as if al haymon don't be pulling no strings himself. and if its always been arum, why did floyd do negotiations with them in the first place. He never had a "problem with arum" until pacquiao accepted the tests and the money.

Ok What is Arum doing to make fight?

The exact thing he said not to do and thats go through media? Or did you forget that?

Does he still not know who to call to make fight happen? or is this like all the other times...bravado to sell a fight. Thats what i think it is

Twice asked and still no answer.

Dont forget the lawsuit after failed negotiations that team Pac didnt want to take tests. Dont forget Arum saying "**** floyd we dont need him". So yes Arum was always a problem

theyll just go back and say something about the past

[Fetta]

Twice asked and still no answer.

Not knowing who to call and negotiationg through media, a no-no in the "How to avoid a fight" in the Arum handbook, are his excuses, Not to mention that Pac has a fight scheduled fior Nov already.

Just listed them cause i know youll come back with still no answer

It's 2014. I'm asking what Arum is doing to prevent the fight now.

And 2012? You mean when Floyd offered that ridiculous 40m flat fee? He phoned Michael Konzcz and dealt directly with Pacquiao so it didn't really matter what the hell Arum was saying to the media. It was moot because Floyd had no intentions of making the fight himself with that offer.

stop spreading false information, Mayweather countered with that cutoff because manny refused for olympic testing up until and after the fight. It was a counter offer. His "idea" was for testing throughout and just after the promotion. If you will read no PPV revenue is BS, read. Thats actually not true, and Ariza admitted it yesterday, and the fact that your name calling zaps your credibility. Grow up.
