Comments Thread For: Bob Arum Talks Mayweather-Pacquaio Full Transcript

[Spacey1991]

Q: What about the drug testing issue?


ARUM: I don't want to get into specifics, but I THINK that issue was resolved. NOT AS CLEAR CUT as you may be saying it, but I BELIEVE it was resolved.


AFTER EIGHT FREAKIN MONTHS, YOU STILL DON'T KNOW?!?!


Sure, Bob.

Thats what ive been saying, nobody knows what was actually agreed too... we don't know what these terms are.

[Sugar Q]

On top of that, why did Arum make the deadline now knowing full well that Rogers trial is in August? I mean, that makes it obvious that theres a good chance he can't commit so why set a deadline? Just a thought... things just don't seem right at the moment.

Clottey/Pac was made on 2 months notice. May/Pac doesn't even need much promo and Bob wants *******s to believe that he needs 3 months to promote which is BS!!!!! He was asked why not wait until after Roger's trial to see what's good but the answer is he NEVER intended on making this fight in the first place. Jeff Mayweather said yesterday that Manny didnt agree with the OST that's why the fight isn't happening. He never mentioned a thing about Roger. You can't believe Arum today and not believe him yesterday either he's telling the truth or he's a big ass liar. Last week he said he sent a contract to Schaefer to forward to Floyd but lastnite he said Schaefer's name was never bought up during the negotiations. Bob Arum is a big ass liar.

hahahahahahahaha


Yeah, a public company is going to blackball their division's biggest revenue generator.

LMAO @ you. Go read some of Mark Taffet's quotes about Mayweather.

Hahaha, Cotto/Pac 2 will be watched online and on HBO when it comes on and Cotto/Cheato isn't even worthy of being watched online. Hahahahaha.

Floyd Mayweather Jr is the Greatest Coward Fighter of All Time!!!

Thats what ive been saying, nobody knows what was actually agreed too... we don't know what these terms are.

You will see the peasants say over and over again "Pac agreed to the terms".

WHAT EFFIN' TERMS?!

Bob Arum is playing games. He knows he submitted a proposal for 14 day cut-off and 50/50 purse split.

Both of which Floyd said were unacceptable back in February.

Whatever happened to Floyd's BIG MOUTH? wtf!

[twosweethooks]

Floyd said I am easy to find if Pac wants me, well Pac wants him , where is Mayweather?

[Spacey1991]

Nah, I have ZERO respect for Arum.. And am pointing the finger at him 100%, Greenburg probably called both camps to see if they want the fight, Both camp probably said yes but am sure Arum laid his proposal at 14 days cut off with 50-50 split to greenburg who probably passed it on to Al Haymon and at that point it probably got shut down on a shredder.

Like Mayweather said in May 1 "OST or we have NO fight" and another thing Arum defending Mayweather is all part of his game.

We don't know what was agreed on thats all I can say, and I think its strange that Arum isn't putting it on Floyd... he usually does as soon as he gets the chance so it seems hes acting out of character.

Arum not being angry about this whole thing is the strange thing to me, if Arum didn't care about something going on with Floyd or Haymon he would put them on blast.

He could just have a good grasp on the situation and is being calm with purpose but Arum is a hot blooded guy if he felt wronged I would think he would be acting differently.

Thats what I am thinking, its not like him to tell people to give Floyd a break, hes usually the first one on his case because of them not seeing eye to eye.

Pac-Mayweather fight depends on Pacquiao's next fight...

Who ever Pacquiao fight next (be it Ivan Calderon), I HOPE FANS will support it 100%... We need great PPV buys~~~

I am a Manny Pacquiao fan, so I will definitely watch his next fight, only biased fans wont watch one guy because they are a fan of another.

Thats what I have been saying, I am not saying one is in the wrong and the other isn't, but people shouldn't point the finger at Floyd when we don't know what Manny actually agreed too.

[BabyFaceAssasin]

Again more bull****! I can't believe this! If Mayweather vs Pac doesn't happen it's ok...there's still next year. However, Pac vs Margarito or Pac vs Cotto 2 are both bull****! Berto and Williams would bring just as much money. Berto got a lot of publicity from the Haiti relief effort and Williams promoter already guaranteed it would be more financially lucrative. Meaning he would be willing to make a 70/30 split. This is bull****!
