    Is ARUM ducking MAYWEATHER?

    This makes no sense. As a promoter, wouldn't you want to put your fighter into the BIGGEST possible fight? Why would you want to denigrate half of your money-making equation in a very public forum?

    From his response, it seems like he doesn't want to put Pac or Cotto in with Floyd for fear of the loss.

    Mayweather vs Pac would do 3x the revenue of Pac-Marquez III

    He stinks his opponent out = he will win an ugly decision.




    Side note: "he shoots up cars" is a slanderous statement.

    He is not ducking floyd. He just dont want floyd making any money off his fighters because he felt floyd betrayed him

        27% less than what he's making now

        Floyd did the right thing leaving TR, everyone knows it. Pacquiao is easily big enough now to do the same thing- guys got too much "niceness" in him

            He aint ducking, he just knows what everybody knows already, Floyd is hard headed and he wont budge becuase he think he is the ****, but at this Moment he will have to bend a bit, because the winner of Cotto/Pacquiao is the one on the top, but he wont do it, thats why Arum said waht he said!!!

              He does, deep down inside he does. He isn't gonna show it because Mayweather will then be able to see that, Floyd will then start making demands incase it goes down. The last thing Arum wants is Mayweather making demands. Just that we can't think too far ahead, Mayweather & Pacquiao haven't beaten their next two opponents.

                I mean in millions, I can't remember how much he made against Chop Chop. Commentators did say how much he made but I don't remember, although I have the fight, I'm too lazy to run threw it.

                  He's not ducking him..but trying to negotiate a deal with Floyd is beyond impossible...Floyd already said he wants a 60-40 split to fight Pacquiao and i wouldn be suprised if he wants a 70-30 65-35 split for cotto..both bull****..

                    I hope ure right. But if Pacquiao performs really well i.e kos Cotto and PBF doesnt, you could see him being stubborn enough to try and prove the point.
