7 ?'s THAT NEED TO BE ASKED ABOUT ARUM'S "NEGOTIATIONS" WITH GREENBURG AND HAYMON

[-MAKAVELLI-]

simple as this.

arum took the naive fans and the media for a ride.

all the while, setting up this fight with margacheato who has done nothing to deserve a fight with manny. much like josh clottey.

too bad these "boxing heads" don't see it for what it is.

so you're saying that IF for some miracle, Floyd accepted, they would tell him no and move forward with the Margarito fight instead?

[IMDAZED]

argue about the details all you want. the real bottomline is: haymon and greenburg arent contradicting what arum said.

No, Arum's doing a good job with the contradictions.

[J-A-D-AKISS]

ellerbee: there were no negotiations

jeff: it was over the cut off date

floyd sr: it was over the money

floyd: i'm not even thinking about boxing



cant negotiate with people that dont even have their story straight

there weren't any negotiations.

its sad that you believe bob arum

he said that he agreed with a deal with golden boy BEFORE the deadline

after the deadline line, he said he NEVER dealt with golden boy.

wake up, nephew.

dude, arum is old and may be a little on the crazy side now, but you're making it seem that arum made the deal w/ himself. that greenburg and haymon didnt exist. how come these two aren't contradicting arum right now? if the gag order is their reason, then logically, there is still some negotiations taking place?

Manny could be schedualed to fight Vitali Klitchko and Floyd fans would say "well what has he done to deserve a shot at Pac".


Seriously you people will discredit anyone who fights pac, it's a little silly.

so you're saying that Arum talked to Greenburg and Greenburg didnt bother talkin to Haymon?

[pistol whip]

Of course not. I was just waiting for the full BS to come out. Whispering in Greenburg's ear that you'll do the fight for 50/50 and a 14-day cutoff doesn't constitute negotiations...or agreeing.

Then why isn't Greenberg dis*****g Arums claims? Arum is the only one talking so why isn't he dis*****g things?

[The Gambler1981]

Those are good questions, pretty much a list of questions that made me pessimistic the fight was even close to getting made.

[RimmyDelicious]

My understanding of the situation is that Arum and Haymon negotiated the fight through Greenburg. When all points were agreed to, Haymon took the contract to Mayweather, who has yet to sign or even comment. Ellerbe, who likely doesn't know anything, mucked things up for Team Mayweather by opening his **** sucker and making comments.
