PAC FANS: Do you think manny should leave Bob Arum?

Didn't Pacquiao signed a new contract for 4 more fights? So, I don't think Pacquiao is changing promoters any time soon. Also, I like the idea of Pacquiao leaving Top Rank. Honestly, it would make the Floyd fight easier. I also think Top Rank has been skimming off Pacquiao's earning. For such a big name in the sport of boxing why is Pacquiao always earning $20 Million while Floyd just about earn more than him every PPV match. I think Pacquiao is getting cheated when it comes to financial terms.

It really is a bull**** excuse. Floyd clearly dislikes and is increasingly vocal about De La Hoya but he has no problems working with GBP. He just goes through Schaefer. I can't recall beef between Mayweather and Todd DuBoef of Top Rank. Someone want to enlighten me?

who cares? that his business let him take care of it. if this is all about floyd not wanting to fight pac because of arum then fukk that childish stupid excuse.

no :luvbed:

Arum is a great promoter no dispute about that, but so is Don King. But if you want to talk about scrupulous behavior, that's a whole different thing. Manny only has a few fights in him left so no use leaving now. But I do hope Manny somehow retrieves all the $$ he was entitled to, the whole thing is very dodgy with VQuest with bold claims about Top Rank and Koncz. EDIT: To the guy who suggested Dibella as Manny's new promoter - thanks for the laugh buddy I would've definitely spilled something if I was drinking something.

He managed Morales for I believe his entire career, pre-comeback trail. He got him the right fights at the right time. Slowly built him up. Matched him against the right people. He did the same thing with Mayweather. The same with De La Hoya. The same with Pacquiao. Granted, the fighters sell themselves with their performances, but matchmaking and exposure is no small feat. Everyone acts like De La Hoya and Floyd are self-made men, but they aren't. Arum successfully promoted the both of them to the point where they could break out on their own. Where did Floyd get the money to buy out his contract? How did Oscar pay the legal fees needed paying? See what I mean?

He has enough of a name in boxing to go with out TR. He will profit more instead of have Arum dipping in his finances. ODLH and Floyd left TR cause all the shady business that Arum does. Arum is a lying sack of crap

No, I don't think he should. Arum gets a lot of **** around here about being a scumbag, being a liar, whatever. Truth be told, I think he's underappreciated. You look at the biggest names in boxing in the last five or ten years. Your big three: De La Hoya, Mayweather, and Pacquiao have all been brought up by Arum and Top Rank. His matchmakers know what they're doing, and he knows how to cultivate careers. He's been behind a wealth of great champions and he clearly knows what needs to be done. Whether they, or you guys, like it or not Arum is directly responsible for the success and popularity of those three I mentioned, as well as countless others. Morales comes to mind. Etc. I believe that, I see this when he was handling Erik Morales and continued with Pacquiao...

And go freelance like floyd is? Arum is making serious money off him and he deserves credit for getting manny to where he is now. But i cant shake the feeling that Pacquiao has outgrown Arum now. its nothing personal its just good business. But i guess Pac has too much on his plate like congress, movies etc to be bothered with promoting himself full time. And i also feel the floyd v pac fight would be easier to negotiate if arum wasn't in the picture. what do you think? Should pac go freelance? Freelance like Floyd? Floyd is promoted by GBP. Aside from that, as stated in my last post, I think Pac should align himself with a guy like Dibella. If its gonna take for Pac to leave Arum so that Floyd can fight him, then i'm all for it. Lets just hope Floyd doesnt come up with yet ANOTHER reason why he doesnt want to fight Pac afterwards.

Dibella comes across as an obnoxious pseudo-alcoholic, itching to land a legitimate great fighter. And he won't. Because he can't manage. Who has brought to the world stage recently? Berto?

Yes! I actually wouldnt mind seeing Pac align himself with Dibella. Dibella seems like a genuine guy who looks out for his fighters best interests.

And I fully expect his clown fan boys to cry about my username being the reason behind me stating those things. Whatever, but watch the excuses that will arise after Pacquiao vs Marquez. No doubt everyonen will see that Floyd never had any attention of facing Manny.....regardless of that fake contract and signature and whatever lies his team has came out with.

For what....cause Floyd said so? Arum isn't preventing anything and it's sad people sit up and believe Floyd when all that is is just excuse to duck Manny. I'm really tired of that pvssy and I just realized after the Ortiz fight that Floyd never had any intention on facing Manny, rather he just came back to take some easy fights, throw dirt on his name and try to take some of his shine away due to being jealous of him as a fighter.

for the pbf fight, he should. just make sure everythings in order though.

Manny dosen't have much time left in boxing and I dont know the contract that he currently has with Arum but a lawsuit can see him sidelined for a considerable amount of time, time which he dose not have. Based on that I wouldn't advise him to go out on his own a few years ago yeah but it's kind of pointless now I mean Arum's making him big money with less headache compared to promoting himself so why change.

Pac has about ~2 years left I dont think drastic change will do him good like changing promoters, we dont need legal problems to the plate... but i definetly agree the factor that PAC-PBF could be made easier without TR should be considered, if Manny-Floyd is not made by next year, leaving TR is best option for the fight being made...

obviously, he has like 5 more fights in him and there are so many fighters right now i want to see him against
