Can Mayweather and Top Rank do business together?

That's a B. S excuse Floyd threw out there to avoid a pac fight. If he can't work with arum then why did Floyd do that fake called out before going to prison and offered Pacquiao the 40 mil flat fee? It was all smoke and mirrors. He knew pac would never accept that offer. Floyd is his own boss isn't he? So what's the problem.? Arum dont answer the phone or return calls if anybody connected to Floyd is calling , did you forget about that . Floyd tried real hard to make the fight and Manny walked because of OST that he now forces on Rios , you kids are so gullible , I reckon their must be some brain link between hate and being gullible because you fanboys are as dumb as dog sht .

So why haven't they made any other fights with gbp? they have. oscar-pac? hopkins-pavlik? lara-vanes? when has floyd worked with top rank since leaving........oh yeah never. top rank won't work with gbp! i hate reality!

Top Rank has the two fighters everyone wants to see Floyd fight; Manny Pacquiao and Tim Bradley. Floyd should try to make the Manny fight for May assuming Manny beats Rios and let Bradley fight Garcia and the winners of those two fights fight in a SuperFight in September. Obviously Mayweather vs. Manny then Mayweather vs. Bradley would be the Two Super Fights that would kill at the Box Office. Floyd and Arum could each make a boat load of cash if they can find a way to work together. Bradley will never sell.

if it means that ducquiao has to fight floyd...well then no. pac already turned down $40 million then went and got put to sleep for $17 mil Mannys purse for JMM 4 was less than that

Honestly i think this whole GBP/floyd/arum beef is all just for show... reminds me of pro wrestling back in the day with the different promotions,, they wouldnt do business for years, have some beef, make loads of money with their own guys and then after a few years have "supercards" pitting each others superstars against each other,,, and then back to beefing to build up the feud, and do it all over again,,,

Top Rank has expressed dozens of times the wish to make the BIG fight, but Phoney Phloyd Testweather keeps asking for impossible conditions. Top Rank is a huge business and run the way a business should be, but Mayweather "Promotions" is run as a personal pastime in a very hit-or-miss fashion. It can't even get a promoter's licence...I don;t know why, except that the requirements as to past history, financial condition, etc etc are too stringent for them. Mayweather just wouldn't want to open up that kind of info. So why haven't they made any other fights with gbp?

Floyd doesn't trust bob. Who does? He's a scummy liar and a thief. Floyd has a good relatuonshiop with duboef. Maybe when bob retires or dies all this crap will be over with.

Pac just needs to KO Rios to make the Money fight relevant again. Rios is B grade he needs to beat a legit fighter to show he is competitive with Floyd , Bradley right now deserves a Floyd fight more than Manny does , and thats how it should go down .

You are aware that Richard Schaffer suggested openly that both sides should open up their books to see how the profits should be split, right???

The answer is sadly no and will always be no as long as bob arum is still alive.

Arum is more of the problem, once he is out of the way and Todd Duboef takes over, you will see GBP vs Top Rank Events FOR SURE Arum is extremely BITTER Toward Oscar and Mayweather and maybe he has a reason because they both left Top Rank and went on to make a lot of money without him

I don't want to see Floyd vs Manny unless Manny ko's Rios and then Bradley. Pac just needs to KO Rios to make the Money fight relevant again.

Mayweather is the A side so GBP/TMT should be lead promoter for any fight with a Top Rank fighter involving Floyd. Arum would never agree to such a scenario no matter what he says to the media Good post. Too much egos are involved for them to work together. Arum wants to control all the profits, and we all know that Floyd is a control freak as well. Both sides have issues that simply can't be resolves overnight.

Actually, how about a tournament with floyd vs. Manny and Khan vs. Bradley with the winners facing each other. I think Floyd would beat Manny then face the winner of Khan vs. Bradley who still have not faced each other. Imagine a Floyd vs. Manny with Bradley vs. Khan on the same card.

Yes but it depends on the fighter, bradley vs floyd is very much possible since bradley only has 3 fans and arum will make more money with floyd paying bradley his purse imo thing is like floyd said, he will never do business with arum, so it won't happen because of floyd unless arum does a deal like golden boy do with floyd which is just stupid and makes the promoters no money

Never happen, Arum likes his share of all the revenue no just one of his fighters side.
