Bob Arum just ruined 2009

[El Dominicano]

Hatton is more then capable of beating Pacman...Roach was right...Floyd was the better option. You lose to Hatton...No Mayweather fight

If Pac loses then we missed out on a

SRL/ Duran...Pernell Whitaker vs JCC type fight

Oh well...May the best man win

[Floydmayweather]

Pac will crush Hatton he is faster (hands anyway) he has better stamina, he hits just as hard, and Hatton comes straight foward. He is wide open for Manny's left hand he will put up a good fight but be knocked out. Peace

[Fearless BONG]

Pacman vs Hatton well it is a good fight.

pacman vs PBF well it will going to be a WAR.

so let this fight lined up for 2009

and lets start it with Pacman vs Hatton on May 2009.

and PBF vs Pacman on Sept 2009.

[Jose Rizal]

All of this is going to end really badly for both Mayweather fans and Mayweather haters.

Not only will Bob Arum deprive us of the biggest fight of the century, but its very possible that Ricky Hatton WINS that fight in May, and Floyd will officially have no incentive whatsoever to come back to the sport of boxing.


Freddie Roach had it right by calling out the biggest name first. If you lose, you lose against the best there is, if you win, you are a God. This Ricky Hatton garbage will blow up in there faces.

Yeah... but that's assuming Pacquiao would lose to Hatton. Who knows, he might end up resurrecting 2009...lol.

To be honest, Pacman-Hitman is a megafight in itself and could be a lot more entertaining.

emphasis on a lot more entertaining.

Mayweather pulled in 325k buys vs a nobody stiff like Baldomir. Margs & Cotto could not even top that fighting each other!

So what. Both of them are major threats, and neither of them is a "gimme" by any stretch of the imagination. If Floyd is only concerned with being a money fighter and not taking on the best, get use to having his legacy and heart called into question.

Mayweather already has his titles and p4p accolades, if you want to get a guy like that back in the smelly gym you need greenery. Margs & Cotto are boring.

Excuses. You can't change the fact that Foyd hasn't taken on a serious threat since Castillo. Everybody else has been hand picked to avoid the real threats at 147.

And calling Margs and Cotto, compared to Floyd, lmao! Are you alright son?

[Flawless.]

With that said, I would officially change the thread title to "Bob Arum has saved boxing in 2009". Since Floyd has been gone we have gotten more quality match ups in and around his division. I'd like to see the Pac fight, but if it doesn't happen and Floyd stays retired, I won't be shedding any tears.

He stopped Williams - Margarito 2 and Clotty fight. He canceled Williams - Pavlik

Hatton was not a threat a guy who a P4P fighter and already won a title at WW. Judah was once undisputed champion at WW

[Mr. Philadel]

I don't even care about who fights who any more......its all politics and money.....what ever happened to Pride and Passion? its gone!

The Williams camp rejected the immediate rematch, and Margarito has already beaten Clottey. Tell me, whats the difference with Floyd not wanting to deal with Arum, and arum not wanting to deal with Williams management?
