Arum has a law degree for christ sake I think he has way more knowledge about what not to say than you do.
    Since I have no idea what is in the contract I can't answer the original post. Bob agreed to keep out of the media. Schaeffer always says no comment. I expect that from Bob.

      I think he will. He did the same thing when signing Mosley. He seems to think that prologing things will promote the fight (and it does) and as long as the terms are not insane, I think he'll go for it knowing how much money is at stake. His uncle is another big ? for him but if he goes to jail, next year isn't enough time for the charges brought up so its now or never.

        and why are you so worried about how much floyd is getting? how much do is your cut? do you party with him afterwards?
        The objective numbers suggest 55/45 is a true purse split. I agree manny is a big draw but he is not the main draw. Just my opinion. Ree****ylaus and others feel 50/50 is fine.

          Floyd had very little options BUT to face Mosley at the time. He got a nice payday for fighting Shane, and now has some breathing room. He can take a year or so off and not have to fight Pac.

            Oscar is clueless, He doesnt run GBP schaffer does. Oscar is the name and schaffer is the brains.

                Cmon now! Oscar knows damn well what's going on with the negotiations. Its like saying Bill Gates is clueless to what goes on with Microsoft. He's just the name and Paul Allen is the brains.

                  I see so you would have Arum wait and wait and Pac wait and wait for Floyd but the second a deadline is created it's some conspiricy theory that Bob Arum is using to make Floyd look bad and hide manny's fear of fighting Floyd?


                  Jesus man have you always lived in bizarro land! You do realize that it's not in the best intrests of Manny to sit around waiting and waiting for Floyd to get off his ass and sign the thing. Manny has options and has fights that will make him money why should he sit around for Floyd.

                  Makes no sense to me why you always absolve Floyd of any responsiability of the fight not getting made, like somehow manny has to cater to Floyd or something.

                    Oscar should shut the **** up about negotiations too. But he is like lady eloise(ertah kitt) in boomerang. He is The face, schaffer is the brains.

                      Id pick Floyd to win this fight by KO.
                      just amazed that he doesnt seem confident of it.
                      i expect him to not sign this contract, or any other involving Pacquiao.
