Arum declares that the fight is officially off and Pacquiao would target Paulie Malignaggi instead; blames Schaefer again, not Mayweather.

Top Rank press release sent out explaining Team Pacquiao only willing to agree to 3 non-random blood tests.
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/sports_blog/2009/12/mayweather-promoter-im-not-saying-the-fight-is-off.html
And I quote:
"I just fought 60 days ago... I'm not thinking about boxing right now".
But yeah, Pacquiao ducked Floyd by forcing him to go on a 16 month hiatus and fighting guys who were active and WANTED to fight him.
And for the record, VisionQwest confirmed in LEGAL DOCUMENTS that they tried to put the fight together for Nelson Mandela's birthday celebration in South Africa for the Summer... Floyd turned it down.
And the guy who actually made the $65 million offer to Floyd went on record on video and confirmed it... Floyd turned it down.
But carry on... tell us more about how you avoid a man on 'vacation'. :lol1:
all fighters go on vacations after fights , doesn't mean there shut out of any negotiation talks. its normal for floyd to take long layoffs (atleastt 12months)
did it since 2001. Arum kept saying during that absence there was talks between both camps and floyd was turning down this huge sum of money. if mosley was promised a fight that far out, how can arum claim to have serious conversations with people about a pac/may fight.
so roach always tells the truth??
Yeah when its about his fighter, he has no reason to lie about manny's situation. that doesn't help him. Floyd is his enemy, why would he praise floyd.
Don't believe anything he says about floyd, but i do believe the things he says about manny, unless of course it has something to do with drugs( can't trust the guy that knew james toney was on the juice).
u mean to tell me a blood test is more important to floyd than 50mil? floyd money mayweather jr?
he doesn't want to risk getting damaged by someone who may or may not be on roids. at the end of the day he has to go home and enjoy his cash. Ray leonard eye being ****ed up in the hearns fight, mess up rays career and he won. anything can happen in the sport. You got to protect yourself at all times. Floyd doesn't want any cheating cheap stuff.
he's either retarded or desperately intent on blaming pac for the fight not happening.
Anyway, just so he can see it one more time:
Per Ross Greenburg, HBO
Furthermore, per Oscar de la Hoya (Mayweather's de facto promoter)
Putting it together:
1) From DLH quote, we can ascertain that there were in fact negotiations.
2) From Greenburg's quote - well..it speaks for itself really.
It doesn't really get any simpler than that...lol
The fight is not happening because of testing
the person not accepting testing is pacquiao
You've failed to answer my original question
I give up because when i post something saying "you need to ask mayweather why the fight wasn't made"
you reply by saying mayweather actually means pacquiao.
That's why, I give up. You can just admit you're wrong, but you won't. If other people read this, they will be able to see who is right though.
:thinking: What????
there was no second negotiations, is what you fail to realize . arum talking gag order than going public with a time clock. there is back and fort happening during negotiations, Only one side was talking. the head of GBP confirms no negotiations took place. Why do you dodge my question to ask your own? When ross says he doesn't know he must not have been informed that 14 days was no longer offered. team pacquiao agreed to after it was taken off the table, they realized mayweather wasn't moving on his stance so they came running back to 14 days after it was gone.
where's the risk to fighting a one-dimensional midget that will get picked apart and ko'd under 6 rounds?
just trash talking, floyd only compliments fighters after fights
why hasn't floyd done more for this fight?
you know how many poor americans that are living in poverty he could feed with that type of cash!!!!!!
And you call yourself black panther
and floyd does feed americans
why would he say pacman is broke? if pacman is broke how could roach still be with him? would nacho say marquez is broke and thats why he's fighting pac because he needs the money?
Obviously he is not absent of money, he just doesn't have as much as he should. He gets loans from arum, and he constantly fights (twice a year) but first answer my question.
why would floyd turn down 50mil? i thought floyd fights for the money? afterall isnt floyd's middle name "money" answer this.
floyd didn't turn down the fight he accepted all of manny's demands. And yes he loves money :). he isn't broke though, he just doesn't pay his taxes .
yea pac should burn his money instead of make it rain at the strip club.
no, he is the nice guy, he is a nice caring person who would kill himself to save a child. He shouldn't have pride. he should just do what it is right for his countrymen,
so roach is lying that pacman and khan can beat floyd but now roach is telling the truth that pacman is broke? ok i got u now.
Ask yourself this question
what would he gain from telling everyone pacquiao is broke? (he isn't the only person saying this).
ask floyd he wants 100m for this fight :lol1:
find a quote of floyd saying he wanted that much
anyway he'd make that much anyway with a 50/50 split, when the ppv numbers come in. he'd get real close to that amount.
u dont have to flaunt your negative checking account slip, if your really broke it'll show already by your apparence and actions. use some logic bro.
you don't go from rich to hobo, you still keep things that you paid for, you just can't buy new stuff. :), enough of this, answer my question, 50 million will help him.
He was involved in the negotiations..I don't think that was an assumption, more an observation.
He said he doesn't know why at the start of your quote. and there wasn't any real negotiations at the time, just Arum saying what he would and want do and ross trying to be the mediator. Only real negotiations was the first one.
He was involved in the negotiations..I don't think that was an assumption, more an observation.
If the fight broke down because pacquiao did not agree to his demands, surely he would have said something like you need to ask pacquiao why he won't give in to mayweather's demands?
Floyd mayweather may have his reasons for not wanting the fight, but don't try to blame it on pac.
correction pacquiao wanted 7 days cut off as said by koncz on 24/7, more proof roach says they didn't agree to testing for mosley fight because they would be hypocrites. Ross is probably talking about manny agreeing to 14 days which was taken off the table short after negotiations collapsed
wow. these fanatical fans of pu55y boy floyd are really something. they really can't admit that pbf is the one holding up this fight. they cling to this belief that the fraud can do no wrong when the world out there is blaming him for the fight not happening. i'm very impressed with the tender loving support of pbf's apologists. i'm sure they would commit suicide if floyd wanted them to.
wow.
:bigeyes:
answer the question :)
Richard backs the position of team mayweather saying negotiations never took place.
http://www.boxingscene.com/schaefer-backs-position-team-Mayweather--29448
floyd has a new demand: pac needs to put his business in order and get rid of arum. that's like asking the taliban to give up terrorism. meaning floyd don't want the fight. "he don't want to fight, he don't want to fight", as marquez repeatedly mumbled in a press conference. :haha:
thanks for the entertainment, guys. :wave:
wasn't a demand it was advice ;)
Lol.
Oscar de la hoya saying that the fight was "extremely close" to being made not enough evidence either?
I repeat:
Put it together, its not that hard.
lol, explain why drug testing has yet to be agreed to. it definitely wasn't agree to at the time of your quote. that predates roach saying they didn't agree , koncz and arum saying it. Why are you avoiding
the first negotiations?
This guy is not joking. At the end of the day Pac would end up retired with his own people dancing and singing with them. Floyd is left with one of the cruelest and most vitriolic media in the world -- US media. Do you really think Floyd would ever have a normal life without people harassing him and asking the same question?
Question is why are Floyd fans so supportive of these roadblocks when it is not in the best interest of Floyd that this fight doesn't happen?
;-)
:bottle::bottle:lol :bottle:
roach also says pacman and khan will beat floyd. what do u have to say about this huh TS?? u said roach always tells the truth when it comes to his fighter. HAHAHA.. so pac and khan will mop the floor with floyd, yall heard it from roach and roach never lies when it comes to his fighters.
Why would he say he wouldn't beat floyd? wtf kind of trainer would he be.you must give your fights confidence. Nacho is saying marquez will beat manny. You over think things
