Just thought about it there, has Arum got his cash cow locked down for life? Hard to imagine this not being the case. But still interested if anyone knows what deal they've got, is there a certain number of fights, etc...
Trying think of a way subtracting arum from the Pac - May equation.
Arum is a great promoter & takes fighters to the next level. Most hardcore fans just dont like him because of his matchmaking, but all promoters do careful matchmaking. The only thing is Top Rank does it better than everyone else. Imagine if guys like Dawson, Williams, etc were on Top Rank. Arum would atleast try to get them over. He got a guy like Margarito a following by screaming he was the most avoided guy in boxing. Only the hardcore fans knew about Margarito for the longest time, but Arum finally got him paydays.
Manny's MP Promotions is badly managed. Even if he just partners with Top Rank or Golden Boy like what Mayweather does, it still wouldn't do much for his US sponsors. His own team lost him millions in endorsements and sued for unfulfilled contracts, while Bob is getting him HP and hopefully other brands like Gatorade.
It's still making easy money. If it weren't for Arum, Pacquiao would have never won 8 titles in different weight classes not even dreaming. Perfect match making is what has helped Pacquiao make all the money he has. Naw, I think that was Alex
Hmm, how about the 23-27% off the top to start?

Trying think of a way subtracting arum from the Pac - May equation. Manny is STUCK!!
Imagine if Manny is juicing, Uncle Bob has so much dirt on that guy it's a shame!
Plus you see how he turned on Donaire, when he was Top Rank he was good, but when he tried to leave he couldn't beat anybody.
When Oscar was with Top Rank he was great, smart and all that, but when he left, he wasn't a very smart guy. Plus Bob exposed his waiver he signed to have drug tests sealed.
Then there is Floyd, "The greates he's seen since Ali" Now he's a ducker, scared, not that good.
I'd say Manny is screwed for LIFE!!:crucified
It appears that Bob does more for Pac than just promote his fights. Don't know what the extent of his services are, but he seems to be happy with their arrangement. Plus, I dont think Pac is too concerned with being an independent business man like Floyd and Oscar, at least not here in the US, so I'd assume Bob handles alot of that stuff here for him. Just guessing though.
As a follower of God, as he claims, superstition should have no place in your life.
Catholic leaders seems to let if not encourage superstition abound among their flocks.
Yeah pac is "stuck" with top rank the same way kobe is "stuck" with tha lakers.
Where would he go? U dudes see how half ass gbp is, u telling me you ll take oscar over bob in a business situation? That's retarded. Evey time gdp gets near top rank they end up getting spanked. Arum may be a snake, but he s also a ****ing shark when it comes to promoting. Why leave a shark to swim with a tuna? That's just stupid.
As often said, Pac is a creature of habit and superstition. He will not repeat a thing which he relates to his past bad luck. If his career is ok now, he will not change it. If ain't broke, no need to repair.

hope pac stays with arum.
arum made him the biggest thing in boxing since ali.
arum is amazing. he'l be crasy to leave
Words from a true Stan! A Stan for Top Rank, A Stan for Arum, A Stan for Freddie, A Stan for all Pacs Sparring Partners and a Stan for Manny!
Spreading yourself pretty thin their buddy.
if pac were just doing boxing, and anything related to boxing, then i think he might give it a thought. he has his own promotional company anyway. but he's stretched too thin nowadays, being a congressman takes most of his time, not including shows, appearances, etc.
I don't know how many years Pac has left in his contract. But I do know one thing. If Pac decides to leave Arum during his prime years all the praise Arum gives him will turn to insults.
Exzibit A - Mayweather
