Webb, Margarito was ALWAYS in the back pocket...you know this
since last Friday, Floyd had all week to say something...anything
like the thread i started, all Floyd had to say was either;
'they didnt send a contract over...they're lying...they want to fight me, here are my demads'
or
'the contract they sent was bullshit...its not what i wanted, THIS is what i wanted' then given them his demands
if they were reasonable, the public would have grilled the living shit out of Arum for not making the fight happen...it would have forced Arum to do something...like you know, either make a fight or make PAC look like a pussy
its simple really
and now that a week has passed without a peep from Floyd's camp, y'all wanna complain about people moving on?
I have to leave to pick up my wife and my son, but the big font means nothing. The media on a large scale would NOT pressure Bob Arum. They would blame Floyd for "ducking". It happened the first time around. I'm out, fam.
all Floyd had to do was open his mouth...but for some reason, everytime someone says 'pacquiao' he doesnt wanna think about boxing
Come on, Mak. All we know is that both Floyd and Pac aren't willing to sacrifice anything to make the fight happen. Floyd want a bigger split, Pac want it to be 50/50 and his 14 days cutoff. So the bottom line is, it doesn't matter if Floyd did or didn't opened his mouth or not, they still would stood their grounds on what they wants.
They done one thing Floyd cant do!! These guys willing to fight Pac!!!
Dude, Arum promotes both fighters, its not that hard getting it squared away like that. And, as the thread starter asked, what has Tony done to actually get a crack at Manny? NOTHING. He has done NOTHING.
what has margacheato done to get this fight? nothing. just like josh clottey. nothing.

Mak, come on, do you really think it would have been this easy to set a fight with Floyd and Manny?
blame floyd for arum not really contacting his people to set up a fight?
you dudes are funny.
some of you posters that are supposed to be top guys on this website are funny.
Well, it seems that Tony was right when he said that Arum promised him a fight with Manny. I just don't see the point at all with this fight. Then, I heard that its going to be at a catchweight as well. :nonono:

Margarito got this fight by default.
Pac has already fought Cotto, Clottey and we all know Mayweather is "not thinking about Pacquiao right now".
What other big name is there?
He's promoted by Top Rank and he has a decent resume (assuming he didn't cheat in any of those victories). That makes him the perfect opponent according to Arum's formula. But I agree that he doesn't deserve the chance at a big pay day. He disgraced himself and the sport with the handwrap thing. Even if that was the only fight he did it in, it still makes him a cheater.
And before anyone uses the "u jealous?" thing again: Of course I'm jealous. I'd love to make the money these guys are. Who the hell wouldn't?
