    from what I understand there were two options plus a rematch clause if the fight was deemed close

    ****** but Arum knew his time with Floyd was up and this was his last ditch effort. Same thing with Margarito only Tony all along knew he would prefer to stay with Bob he just wanted to see what was out there.

    how you been Ryan?

      Exactly, how can anyone believe arum is telling the truth if his fighter buys out his contract? Dlh did it. He left Arum. What makes Arum so honest?

        Floyd never denied the offers (all three, post Mitchell, post Judah and Post Baldo) ARUM WAS STILL Floyds promoter during this time.he just made excuses and he also never mentioned anything about it having options and BS.

        Floyd avoided MArgarito like the plague and he outright ducked Cotto..

          how do you know arum is a liar? have you ever even met arum? what lie did he tell you for you to say something like that? Arum puts on the best fights! We're lucky to still have him around boxing! Dlh and floyd bought out their contracts because fighters themselves are greedy and they wanted to make more money for themselves so they ditched the person that helped them get to where they are now. Dlh and floyd can say what they want but I'm sure dlh doesn't want to remember that Arum was the guy that paid the girl that accused dlh of rapping her 1million dollars to settle the case out of court. Why do you try to bash someone you don't even know????? calling him a liar makes you a fool! Arum is a great promoter that puts on great fights!!!! Like any business in corporate america and around the world everyone is trying to make the most money possible! Get used to it...better yet try it out for yourself you might like the money you make.

              cmonmang as big as a fan and of a supporter as i am of my buddy margarito floyd would embarrass margarito in the ring... Especially back then! right now it's a fight i would love to see but i don't see margarito winning much rounds against floyd mayweather. It would baldimore all over again my friend.

                First off, i called the 8 mil offer phony. I "asked" how can people believe Arum is telling the truth. Arum put on great fights, and fighters are greedy. That makes sense. I don't care about ****s, and the rest of your post is probably your own personal thoughts.

                      Look kid...go upstairs to your room, get your toys out and play with them. And when you are done, make sure you put all of your toys back in the toy box.
