De La Hoya Stands Firm, Won't Sue Pacquiao

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Golden Boy Promotions Oscar De La Hoya, one of the biggest names in boxing says that while he has filed a lawsuit against Top Rank Promotions which is headed by his arch rival Bob Arum, he won’t include Filipino ring idol Manny Pacquiao in any legal battle. [details]

Of course GBP won't sue Pacquiao they wouldn't want to ruin "the fighter promoter relationship" this early. What if the court ruled on Pac being with them?

And besides Pacquiao is fully protected by the contract he signed with Arum. The contract includes Pacquiao being imune from all monetary liabilities in case GBP files against him. TOP RANK will shoulder all monetary obligations.

But There's a clear contradiction on DLH's part in the later part of the article. Again he said he wants to help the sports and the fighters and yet Pac won't fight any top contender from his outfit, how is that helping the sports?

Great fights can still and still should happen even if Pac is with another outfit, isn't that suppose to be?

That is the bull**** that DLH wants you to believe. He is the same as every other promoter out there and he's proven it in his short time as a promoter. He isn't helping the sport at all and he's only helping his fighters. The media has given him a good image through his years as a boxer and he's taking full advantage of it.

So true, that's exactly my point. He is slowly showing his true color.

if Pacman stays with Arum he should move up to Welterweight, if hes stays with Golden boy then he can fight at his weight
