    Use your head before you post idiotic stuff.
    Your making no sense....

    Clottey wasnt even mentioned until 2 days ago..now the fights signed???

    Clottey pulled out of his fight a few weeks back..for MONEY reasons.

    Now all of sudden its Pac vs. Clottey,

    Arum never wanted the floyd fight..he was pissed they didnt want texas.

      How hard is it to understand that that Dallas Stadium was already reserved for 3/13 for the Pac/May fight. The undercard was already worked on for the Pac/May fight.

      All Top Rank did was switch out May for Clottey.

      Come on man

        Wasn't MGM being held for Floyd on March 13? If this is the case, Arum would need alternative venue for Pac, Im guessing Texas was open and there were already some negotiations between the parties, Jerry Jones being excited on showing off his new arena and all, that made that negotiation go pretty smoothly

          I hate Arum, i really do. I know "Hate" is a strong word to use, but that old man is a disgrace to the sport of boxing.

                  I call Bull****. When Floyd and GBP didnt even bother to look at Texas. Arum changed his mind.

                  He passed up the floyd fight and ADMITTED that HE is the reason the fights off.

                  Everytime a LITTLE thing happened Arum CALLED the fight off with the quickness...EVERYTIME...he was quick on the trigger.

                    you make it sound like if Floyd doesnt have the shots then his hands will break into dust or something. Thats how everyone is acting now. People make it sound like without it then he is nothing. Gatti has one of the hardest heads & toughest beards going. Floyd landing a ton of hard shots. It wont kill him, e****ally for 1 fight

                      Here's the thing J.Jones wants that stadium to turn a profit and boxing is a great choice to fill up open slots. But, you need good fights that will fill the seats and I doubt Pac vs Clottey can do it - But it is a good start.

                      Arum has big stadium ideas .... he just needs the right matchups to make it a profitable reality. Right now I don't see many fights filling even 25% of that stadiums capacity ... with PPV and online streams cutting into the paying seat potential.
