Comments Thread For: Arum: Berto is The Toughest Sell For Manny Pacquiao

[LOWBLOW_CHAMP]

ok its starting to come out now, arum and team pac dont want pac to loose plain and simple, if mayweather said all the things we have heard recently from arum and roach people would be raising hell about it, clotty was nobody and he got a easy chance to fight pac hatton was no1 before and after mayweather and just because may fought him they felt pac should, margarito was never on the radar and he got a chance in a heartbeat, berto is at least trying to show hes ready to fight and martinez isnt that big if you ask me, pac needs to fight some1 who is out there proving a point before he gets any more credit from me and alot of other REAL boxing fans cotto was his only recent win that helps his rep in the last few years clotty margs and hoya were nobodys when pac faced them and pac is getting all this praise just for winning but against WHO??? nobody who is on top of there game and winning lots of fights, im a huge fan of pacman and i dont blame him but his team and arum are fooling alot of people out there

Despite how anybody feels about Berto, I am very interested in seeing a Pacquiao - Berto fight. I think Berto would pose some problems to Pacquiao, considering he is just as fast as him, a technically sound fighter, strong and aggressive. I am very curious to see this matchup more so than Mosley and Marquez, because of Berto is a young hungry fighter.

Contradicting hypocrite Bob is.

Seems like he's in a rush to get a fight signed. I wonder why??? lol

Team Pac is exposed. They better choose wisely!

1. Mayweather at 147 for WW title
2. Martinez at 154-155 for JMW title and or MW title
3. Berto to unify WW titles
4. JMM AT 140
5. Alexander/Bradley at 140-147
6. Kirkland (after a tune up) at 147
7. Mosley at 147 (shanes ranked at JMW)

Its pretty clear that Team Pac is in a rush to pick the least threatening of all the names. Someone who hasn't won a fight since 2008. If he signs to fight Mosley, he should be stripped of his #1 P4P status. If he signs to fight JMM at 147, he should be stripped of his #1 P4P status and labeled a "coward".

[Easy-E]

Mosley coming off a loss, Marquez back up to 147 who has looked less than stellar or a young undefeated prospect with sick power...

uhh ok Bob.

Answer: Because they don't want to wait and or fight Mayweather.

dont you think they already waited enough. this is already the third try. same answer "im on vacation." duh

[don miguel]

Why are they in such a rush to find an opponent if your not fighting until May..why not wait till January or Febuary..I'm sure Mayweather can talk after that..

Pac vs Floyd needs at least 6 months of preparations bcoz its so huge it could be the biggest earner in boxing history espescially considering the cases Floyd are facing

All Arum want to know is a confirmation from Floyd that he wants the fight.

So Arum could talk to Floyd's lawyer to discuss Floyd's schedules in his cases.

Funny because the last time I checked. Manny was the reason the fight didn't happen in the first place.

Dude, you're deluded.

Berto doesn't deserve a shot at Pacquiao and Freddy Hernandez should be no gauge at all for how competitive he would be with Pacquiao. With that said, Mosley is the least deserving out of these three guys and if Pacquiao goes in that direction, then Roach and Pacquiao need to put their foot down with Arum and say they don't want the fight.

You are right about most of what you said but Berto is not technically sound. He's just as fast with single shots but he does'nt let his hands go like Pacquiao. Pac's too busy for Berto but I would still like to see it.
