When Bob Arum first set the deadline and said he had a finished contrct he said that He and Golden Boy agreed on terms, Now it is that he negotiated with greenburg and haymon and never spoke directly to anyone in floyds camp. WTF?

Lol Arum is a smart guy, he knows if he goes negative on Floyd, Floyd will balk at any fight potentially in the future.
Roger's case is nothing more than an excuse, in an otherwise laundry list of them for the past five years. All of the excuses usually were regarding money, so now comes along a potential fight that could earn you the biggest paycheck of your life and also solidify you as a national sports figure, not just a boxing figure and the only thing you have to say is..."hey check out my espy award"....christ.Last edited by switchsouthpaw; 07-17-2010, 03:06 AM.

Arum was constantly trying to suggest that Rodger is the problem (even though he hasn't spoke to ANYONE).
Arum also publicly steered Manny away from 2 people who have called him out-Williams and Bradley-2 guys who would make Manny struggle compared to Margarito and Cotto.
This was all a sham...

Basically Manny thought a deadline would force Mayweathers hand, and he thought he could dictate the cutoff date for testing, purse split, weight penalties, glove size, and the actual fight date itself...
Epic Fail!
The Roger Mayweather situation wasn't, and isn't the issue.
The issue remains the same...
Take the test as it was designed to be administered, and forget about a 50/50 split. Mayweather was winning fighter of the year accolades while your ass was still beating Filipino cab drivers over seas, and this is fact.
Pride before the fall.

Why should Arum say anything bad? he has no reason why Floyd doesnt want the fight.
