Bob Arum has tried so hard to make a Mayweather fight happen. L@@K here for proof!

[Gordon Gekko]

12-28-09. Team Mayweather and Golden Boy are still open to work something out with blood testing negotiations. Keep in mind this article is posted one day before the Clottey/Rosales fight was officially called off. Strange huh?

12-29-09. Joshua Clottey withdraws from a fight against Michel Rosales due to "money issues".

12-30-09. Bob Arum claims he doesn't see the fight with Mayweather happening due to the fact they couldn't agree on a cutoff date.

Fast forward to May.

05-01-10. Mayweather says the 14 day cutoff offer is off the table. He wants random OST up until the fight.




05-03-10. Pacquiao agrees to the 14 day cutoff offer AFTER Mayweather just said that offer was no longer on the table two days prior.

After, Mayweather/Pacquiao "negotiations" fell apart again Pacquiao moves on to Antonio Margarito (The third Top Rank fighter in a row for Pacquiao). Below is a link where Margarito tells us Bob Arum assured him a Pacquiao fight. The strange thing is this link is from February of this year.

So as you can see, Arum had/has no intensions of fighting Mayweather.

he probably tried his hardest but in a way that pisses mayweather off the most. he just went out of his way to be a jerk imo

[JK1700]

The truth!

cant fight people that are on vacation

Especially when you have other guys booked anyway

LOL mayweather knew pac was going to accept drug testing so took his offer off the table. They agreed a deal with golden boy but mayweather refused to sign due to vacation.

Poor floyd, left top rank to avoid margo and cotto, now is leaving golden boy as they are forcing him to get his ass whooped by pac.
