Will Pac/May be negotiated correctly or will Arum want to jump straight to Margarito?

[F l i c k e r]

If that was the case he would have fought on the undercard and then this scenario would hold more water. Texas threw that **** like a hot potato once California wass upset about it.

He still can't fight anywhere in the US, he is fighting in Mexico for a reason, he could get licenced but he is not currently in the US.

Bob Arum decided against it. So it doesn't matter what the case is, Bob Arum decided that he didn't want Margarito to fight the card yet. So instead Margarito is fighting in Mexico.

He can fight in the US. Texas is the only place that has accepted his license so far, although I think it is the only state he has attempted to get a license in. Last time I checked, Texas is apart of the United States. His next fight is venued for Mexico, that is all.

If Pacquiao-Margarito happens, it will more than likely be on a Mexican holiday. In Texas, which has a huge mexican population. And they will revive the whole Mexicutioner thing to hype the fight.

Tony Plaster of Paris should be fed to Pac. But I rather see Cotto get revenge on that cheat and PBF give Manny a boxing lesson.

No he is not, Arum thought Texas was going to but they didn't when California talked to them. It was goign to big a time consuming issue and tehy didn't have time. If he could fight in Texas they would fight there now to build up the base there not in Mexico.

Margarito also has zero hype at current in the US and fighting some scrub in Mexico does not mean taht much, it is not as big a fight as you are making it out to be.

He can not currently fight in the US he has no licence in any state, he could possibly get one but he has none as it stands.

sucks Bob Arum has all these options to throw for Manny to face.

**ouside of the whole Mexican angle, considering Mosley smashed Margarito

how credible a fight is Pacquiao-Margarito? sure it'll be easier to make since both Marg + Pac are Top Rank

and does Marg really deserve a big time opportunity/pay day especially considering the crap his trainer pulled vs Mosley?

Pacquiao-Margarito would be entertaining, but I am getting tired of Arum keeping Manny in house so much (Cotto, Diaz, Clottey)

jump straight to margarito

Are you sure about that?? Look how the threads are with the name Margarito in it.
Lots of people I know are looking forward to this fight. You expect him to fight a top 5 WW after being gone for over a year and a knockout loss? That's pretty ****** if you ask me.

[American Dream]

I dont think Pac/May will happen..Im done getting my hopes up..they will go to Marg or another TR fighter..Team Pac/Arum can suck it....

[RisAri0]

but floyd vs. shane has a rematch clause... but then I'd rather pac fight bradley if not floyd

[HitmanHattonAY]

Title really says it all, I'm just curious since Arum seems to be trying hard to get Marg into position to make this fight.

The fight isn't going down.


Floyd: No more cut off dates.

Arum: No more extra drug testing, PERIOD.



Forget about the fight.

What if May/Mosley breaks records, wouldn't that be enough to get Arum to make it happen.

I keep on talking about Bob cause he seems to be the guy that make or break this fight. Honestly I think Arum thinks there too much of a chance that Pac will lose and his cash cow will be gone, but if he puts him in against Marg, whoever wins, Bob will still be getting paid.

im not sure

Vocal minority does not mean a lot of people, I don't expect him to fight anyone good in his fight back but still taht fight after getting his soul taken away does not do anythign for me. If he fights a scrub then beats someone meaningful it would be different.

A Margarito fight means very little at this point, the fact that people think it would be a good fight is pretty laughable if you ask me~
