    Arum is playing with everyone including pac and roach, that's his nature.

    But pac said he's amenable to the 14 day cut off so arum is just parroting what pac has said and told the media that the ball is now in floyd's hand.

    My question is whatever happened to the so called media black out. Is this part of this propaganda or what? I don't see anyone from floyd's camp talking except floyd saying he may take a year or two leave and roger saying don't believe everything floyd is saying.

      Didn't Pac-Cotto do about the same numbers? In Pacs last fight he fought a guy only boxing fans knew, while Floyd fought a guy who beat DLH. But Pac was still able to sell out the place. I could care less about the purse split and the cut-off date, those are things Floyd is triyng to change now, but Arum is the one playing with us......hmm ok

        Yes, but you don't have to be a genius to know that the level of opposition clearly isn't leveled. Have Floyd fight Clottey and see how many buys he gets. Pacquiao/Cotto is the fight you need to compare Floyd/Mosley to, not Pacquiao/Clottey.

        There was a lot of hot air about Floyd/Shane doing "x" million, "y" million, but in the end of the day it only did 1.4 which is only slightly more than Pacquiao/Cotto so why the need for a "new" deal?

        Either way, if you're truly a fan you should be supporting the idea of Floyd accepting the so called "old" terms to just fight the damn guy rather than playing Leonard Ellerber trying to fubar the f'n fight with more BS terms.

          Mosley is not and never was a draw man. Hell Hopkins beat Oscar as well what did that do for his drawing power?

          Its not Floyd fault Pac fought Clottey. Pac had Cowboys Stadium as his dance partner.

          I dont get the last half of your post at all.

            You know what bro I think the Media black out is key. I wish both teams had a gag order and weren't allowed to speak on the fight until it was signed.

              Only 1.4??? How long have you been watching boxing? Do you know how GOOD that is?

              Clottey was his last fight an Floyd doubled his Clottey PPV. Cotto is a bigger draw then Mosley and Clottye but you knew that right??

              What do you mean if Im truly a fan?? Have you been under a rock bro? Roach just sai like last week he was ready to do 55-45 in Pacs favor. How can I supprt a deal thats OFF the table and balled up? No one is playing Ellerbe here Im just going with facts. That deal is off FLOYD said that. Roach CONFIRMED it.

                Floyd said no more cut off but Floyd's words cant be taken seriously just like he said he will retire.

                  It's a shame there wasnt a gagging order...

                  I guess Arum and Roach just can't keep their mouth's shut

                    Why does team Pac have to bow down and do EVERYTHING mayweather wants? They compromised and want the fight to move forward. Seems like Floyd just don't want it.

                      Sorry, but Roach never said a thing. He's the most loyal and professional member of Pac's team..
