back in late September, Arum said these words to veteran boxing scribe Michael Marley of Boxingscene.com after his desultory draw versus Mora:
"I did and I read them saying Mosley was huffing and puffing for air in the fourth or fifth round," Arum said. "To me, that is the real tipoff for an aging fighter. Even Big George Foreman did that in his 40s but he always had that big, big punch like in the Moorer fight.
"What I’ve read is not very supportive to make any Mosley-Pacquiao bout. Look, he’s going to be 40 and he’s in the lighter weights where speed is so important. He’s on a show with guys -- example, 20-year-old Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez -- old enough to be his son.
"I guess Shane needs the money due to his matrimonial situation (a divorce under harsh California community property rules)," Arum said. "I’ve always considered Shane to be a nice guy but this is what happens to fighters when they age.
"It’s like Hopkins, he still knows how to fight but who wants to pay to see him now? His fights are not very scintillating. What you see with Hopkins we’re beginning to see with Mosley."

Arum changes his views whenever it suits him or the situation. He's so fucking full of it.
lol name a single promoter/businessman that don't play ball like that. they'd be counting hamiltons.
Arum scare that manny lose, Manny is Arum piggy Bank
That is why he so scare, he knows that why every time manny fight he drinks pepto Bismol. his cash cow can be steaks soon. he put cotto in the back wagon , that is why Arum praises manny all the time until may seven, when the piggy bank will be broken, then he turn to cotto.
