You are all ******s thinking Arum is the stumbling block....



This man has been in the game for 3 decades or more idk Arum organized superfights like Marvin Hagler vs. Roberto Durán and Hagler vs. Thomas Hearns....

But somehow he's this massive stumbling block...

How the **** can you ask a guy to leave his promoter for the biggest fight of his career?!? This is sheer lunacy!!!

But then again we are dealing with ballwashing Flo****s who would chomp down a fresh turd if Floyd requested them to...

You like to ignore the facts right? How is this not being a stumbling block?



It was just this week that Arum said he would go to the Philippines to meet with Pacquiao and present him with the names of four possible opponents for May or June: Miguel Cotto, Marquez, Lamont Peterson and Timothy Bradley Jr.

Arum figured Mayweather would be in jail and off the table. Now that Mayweather is available and seemingly would like to make the match, Arum suddenly isn't interested.

He used the lame excuse of the cut Pacquiao suffered against Marquez, saying he might not be ready for May. (I've never heard of a cut taking more than six months to heal.) However, earlier this week, when Arum thought Mayweather would be on ice behind bars, he said there was a good possibility Pacquiao would fight in May.

Moments after Mayweather was granted the continuance, Arum changed his tune.

"We're fighting in June, one of the four guys," Arum told me over the phone.

I asked him, now that Mayweather was available, would he at least be part of the conversation when Arum meets with Pacquiao next week?

A perturbed Arum's response was, "Absolutely not. Nope."

Come again? You won't even talk about it with Pacquiao, I asked very politely.

"My mission is to go over to the Philippines and talk about these four guys," Arum said. "If Manny feels he wants to go in May, he will tell me. I want to make sure Manny's cuts are healed. We won't fall under this kind of pressure. June is much more likely for Manny's fight, not May."

So May was a real possibility yesterday, but now there's no way?

"What if they fought and Manny started bleeding on the first punch?" a clearly flustered Arum said. "I don't know if Manny is available to fight in May. I have no idea. I haven't talked to him; I haven't seen him. Seems to me, June is more likely based on what his plastic surgeon said."

Arum threw out another "reason" (or excuse, as far as I'm concerned) not to try to make Pacquiao-Mayweather for May 5.

"I don't even know if Mayweather will be licensed [by the Nevada State Athletic Commission] before he serves his time," Arum said.

but he will always claim to offer Pacquiao a 40 million bucks....for a potential at least 100 million (previously) and now the range going up towards 300 million.

Yeah uh huh...

It is well documented that Manny walked away from a 50/50 split over a 14 day drug testing cutoff.

Since then he has been knocked unconscious and decisioned.
Pacman's Market share is not as strong as in 09.


He and his team.... and fans ...have to grappled with those FACTS.

40 mil w/ 35% upside is a great offer after last night.

Isn't it amazing how this history has been forgotten or ignored? This didn't even talk about the outdoor stadium. I can't understand how Mayweather is expected to bow to Arum. Remember when Arum publicly called for a boycott of Mayweather vs. Maidana I? Then he had the nerve to set up Pac vs. Algeri after those comments. He (Arum) has to go!

That shouldn't be your concern. Your concern should be about getting the fight made and not on another man's bank account or issues arising from it. That's what bytches do and I mean that literally. Am not calling you that, am just stating the obvious. You probably forgot Floydie had serious tax problems too and had to beg Uncle Haymon to help get him out of it perhaps your lack of objectivity won't allow you to mention it. No attacks on you, am just saying........

STOP USING FACTS, YOURE CONFUSING THEM

[Mr. Philadel]

Arum is too old to be able to keep fooling young strong minded boxing fans....nothing he says concerning that fight has ever been relevant...his lying ass never wanted to make the fight...Floyd is losing interest in the sport so I guess now it's a 50-50 fight....but it's always been a 90-10 fight in favor of Floyd imo

Pac fans make me understand cult members better.

You'd think seeing him laid out on his coke-snorter for 15 minutes or re-signing with Arum would have snapped them out of it..but no..their blind faith is too strong.
