Comments Thread For: Pacquiao vs Margarito Clash is Possible, Says Arum

[hanzoh74]

Everything Mayweather has done is to line up a mega fight with Pac. He announced his return at Pacs press conference against JMM....an opponent Pac could not beat clearly.

JMM call out of Mayweather was staged by goldenboy for this purpose. This was the first step in hyping this megafight. Whip JMM so the fans woukld start talking May vs Pac.

Floyd Sr was ringside watching the Cotto vs Pac fight. Why would he bother???

The very second Pac beat Cotto, floyd was on sky sports giving a 30 minute interview detailing how he would beat Pac with ease. If thats not hyping a future fight i don't know what is........

Ellerbe and Haymon (who Arum does not deal with) recused themselves from negotiations and handed it to Schafer to get this fight done, given bad blood btw Floyd + handlers and Top Rank.

Roach initially said random testing would be no problem after it was discussed very early in negotiations. This changed pretty quickly

Roach was telling everyone who would listen Pac would kill Floyd, but he dosen't think the fight will happen because mayweather is difficult to deal with in negotiations and will ask for too much money. He started backtracking quickly once he realised Floyd wanted this fight.....saying things like March is too soon and he needs more time to prepare for floyds style given he is so diff from Pacs previous opponents.

A 50/50 split was agreed upon.

Floyd also agreed to 8 oz gloves. In Nevada both fighters must agree to 8oz gloves, else the rules are to fight with 10oz gloves.

At this point team Pac try to throw a spanner in negotiations with a 10 mil per pound over the limit penalty. Floyd accepts promptly.

It is at this time the issue of a random testing gets traction. Essentially Roach and team Pac now have a problem with it, when initially this was not their position.

they insist on a 30 day cut-off. they move down to 24 days after Greenburg calls them out after having seen the Pac v Hatton footage of Pac getting tested 24 days before that fight. Team Pac are already talking about fighting other guys despite negotiations continuing.

every reputable doctor in the field of PED's details how a 24 day window is too long. Even Dr Caitlan whom the *******s used to initially defend Pacs position with regard to testing details how 24 days is a joke.

Mediation fails and Arum goes into damage control. The impartial mediator calls Arums recollection of the mediation process into question ever so diplomatically. Basically Arum lied.

Mayweather reveals they offered a 14 day cut-off prior to mediation that was rejected.

Arum calls this a lie. Well why not call Mayweathers bluff??????

Looking at this chain of events it is only a ******* who would say Floyd ducked Pac.

Mayweather could not have possibly known asking for random testing would sink this fight like the titanic hitting an iceberg???

Hyping?? Yeah thats all FMJ is good at hyping but not fighting, Pac has no problems fighting MAB, Morales, dela Hoya, Hatton, and then all of a sudden got stalled with FMJ..why is it all happened to FMJ only?? becoz the problem is only on FMJ himself!!! and u have the history to prove it!! claiming to be a WW but didnt even fight anyone on top 10, came back to fight at WW with an overbloated featherweight who the public knew Pac has problems with so that if he can beat JMM convincingly it will play in the public's mind that Pac will sure got beat since he already beat the man Pac has problems with instead of fighting Pac himself,and i know FMJ will be contented with that theory thats enough for him....thats how cowardly ur hero is!! The whole worlds knows except the *****s who are to ******ed to accept the truth....Heck if Duran, SRL or Hearns are still fighting today Pac will fight any one of them with no hassles!! now explain that to me

Great post!!!

Well if i had one critique...I'd lay off calling people *******s...even if they call you names...This is the same immature stuff that they accuse PBF of doing...You made plenty of valid points, that most rational people can easily follow and clearly understand...but the dialogue never goes anywhere because they feel the need to retaliate with name calling and the circle of bullcrap begins...I simply ignore those who start in on the **** and respond to those who come with some type of knowledgable response!

I hear you though and know you only want to see them scrap...I know i do.

Peace Mo!

Great post!! Only a ***** can appreciate that kind of a ****ty post just like their hero!! The greatest ducker in history of boxing!!

Spot on with that, but i bet you the *****s ignore it and wont give you an answer.

[hanzoh74]

This isn't news everyone knows Pac prefers washup up Mexicans ....

no worse than FMJ ducking all the top 10 WWs instead let a blown up featherweight to fight him at a weight hes not comfortable with...worse! he came in overweight from a agreed weight!!! Pathetic loser!!

[Carpe Diem]

Why does Arum keep saying that his own fighters are going to lose to Pacquiao? He's saying it about Clottey and now Margarito. I guess he's just being truthful, but why say it in public? Then again, casual fans don't read this **** anyway, so maybe it doesn't matter.

He has not shown any respect nor professionalism to any of his second-rate fighters.

you cant judge promoters like until ur a promoter himself....heck hes much better than DLH or Don King combined

Don King, yes, DHL, no. Everyone knows that Oscar is a D-bag, but at least he respects all of his fighters equally.

Lets wait and see.....if a fight with Mosley is finalised in May....how can anyone on the planet even think Floyd ducked Manny if he fights Sugar Shane.......

Also your response was nothing but babble......

[MakeDamnSure]

It seems like Pac will have to fight all the fighters Floyd ducked.

In a span of 1 year Pac can fight Cotto, Clottey and Magarito

In a span of 5 (Five Years) Floyd can fight Baldomir.

That's how it is.

[Championart]

the problem is their style. yuri fights tall and bounces a lot while marg crounches and a come forward fighter.

That wasn't the reason that they gave for backing out of the fight with Yuri when they made their statements. They simply said he was too tall for pac.
