The REAL reason Arum might not let Pac fight Mayweather...

[C.Y.]

Arum don't give a **** long as he makes $. He just won't accept less than 50-50 forr the purse split.

yea exactly all arum wants is that money, he's trying to win

[baracuda]

Was that comment back when Arum was Mayweathers promoter?

[p4p-champ]

Arum want to milk the Pacman hype machine as much as possible. NO way he want his prize possession in the same ring with Mayweather.

He did better than that when he promoted Mayweather. Jr.

Yup and he was Pacquiao's promoter at the same time...3 months b4 these comments Pac just ko'd Morales...so im sure he was able to see the 2 fighters up close

I ALREADY KNOW WHERE UR GOING

[steelpulse]

um ur a putz..Mayweather has ALWAYS been smaller than his opposition..now all of a sudden he fights small fighters?...

the fact that u only post Hater Message Board rhetoric lets me know what you know about boxing..

I completely agree with you, these suckers hate on Floyd more than they praise their own favorite fighters

TRUE STORY!!

[Pullcounter]

this was from a Conference call transcript with Arum, Mayweather and the media (which included Kevin Iole and Dan rafeal) right before the Zab Judah fight......

ROBERT MORALES: Hey, Bob, what makes you say – we all know all the fighters you’ve been involved in, all the fighters you’ve seen, what makes you say that Floyd is the best fighter you’ve seen in 40 years other than the young Muhammad Ali?

BOB ARUM: Well, you know, there are a number of aspects that make a great fighter. One is speed. His speed is phenomenal. The way he throws punches, phenomenal. The way he is conditioned, phenomenal. I mean, he’s the entire whole package. And beside all of those skills, he is the – again, put Ali aside – and during those couple of years with Ali , I mean, maybe because my eyes were younger then, but put Ali aside, other than Ali, he’s the most intelligent fighter that I have ever seen. I mean, Floyd, this is no bull****; Floyd can see a punch coming before the other guy knows he’s going to throw it. Do you understand that? I mean, I have never seen such ring intelligence that Floyd demonstrates.

And so he’s the whole package, and you know, Ray Leonard was a great fighter, Marvin Hagler was a great fighter, Duran certainly was great, Oscar had a couple of years where he was very good, but there’s nobody that is a whole package like Floyd.

no one knows what arum meant except for arum.
