Comments Thread For: De La Hoya on Mosley Leaving: "It's a Slap in The Face!"

[Ray*]

If a fighter is free to leave then he has all the rights in the world to exercise that, Oscar left Arum and they went through a bitter cut off before they were able to patch things up, Oscar cant turn around now accuse another fighter of doing what he did to Arum, Its smells of hypocrisy.

haha @ Oscar

1st Mosley is a Huge draw(with GP)

2nd Mosley isn't a draw, and out of 11,000 attendace ... Oscar says 10,000 showed up for Saul Alvarez and only 1,000 for Mosley.... And Saul is what made the PPV numbers??

Ok, What a load of bullshyte.

... and whats funny is, here all along, Richard Shaefer, was talking about how Shane and James Prince(Mosley new manager) know "how to read the fine print in Mosley's GP contract"

....I guess Shane does know how to read the fine print in his contract. He read it and then got smart and excercised his free agancy.

....And lets not cry boo-hoo for Golden Boy. GP through Shane under the bus a long time ago.

... And lets not forget the recent Mayweather/Pac negotation Lies/Debacle with TopRank. If it wasn't for GP lying to cover Mayweathers A$$ in the alleged negotations with Ross Greenburg(hbo), then GP would have been able to Negotiate(scam) for Mosley.

GP got what they deserved.

,... now Shane is getting what he deserves, one last monster payday... unless he beats Pac .... then there will be a May/Mosley II

[WESS]

lol funny how they waited until Mosley looked like **** his last two fights before wanting to fight him but when Mosley was coming off his fight against Margarito...they wanted nothing to do with him

now after struggling and starting to look his age...they are not trying to convince people that Mosley still has something left

Arum IS A JOKE!!! but he knows the fans he is trying to sell Manny Pacquiao fights to are not that smart of knowledgeable when it comes to boxing so he just takes advantage of knowing that they will basically order any Pacquiao fight regardless of who he fights

No, its not funny anymore. The De La Hoya fight was funny, he deserved that. Its even more funny that Roach and Pac knew they were fighting a bum AT 147, reason they demanded Cotto to fight at a catchweight. Hatton was washed up joke (or was it coke?), Cotto was still a destroyed fighter but a SOLID win for Pac no doubt, Clottey was shyt, Margarito was shyt and now Mosley who we all know is shyt too?

It's not funny anymore! Top Rank better choose wisely.....

1. The #1 WW champion, Floyd Mayweather AT 147 for the WW title and the "UNDISPUTED" #1 P4P spot

if that cant be made,

2. The #1 JMW and #1 MW Champion Sergio Martinez AT 154 for the JMW title (Martinez's title he was "forced" to drop this past JUNE 2010)

if that cant be made,

3. The #2 WW titlists Berto AT 147 to unify the WW titles

if that cant be made,

4. Then Alexander/Bradley AT 140 or 147

if that cant be made,

5. JMM AT 140 (the MOST meaningful fight outside of the Mayweather fight if Pac JMM in fact fought at 140)

FINALLY if NONE OF THE BEST AT THERE WEIGHT CLASS CAN BE MADE THEN......

6. Mosley who's NOT a TOP 10 P4P, TOP 10 WW, TOP 10 JMW, hasn't won a fight since January 2009 and is about to be 40 years old.

WHAT IS THE PROBLEM HERE?

LMAO@ Arum saying "Mosley was huffing and puffing in the 4th round vs Mora and to me thats an aging fighter....but even aging fighters have at least a chance to land a big shot"

Bob Arum is straight gangsta. Even after he has just admitted that this is an easy fight, he will turn around with a straight face and market Pacquiao/Mosley as the biggest fight that can be made and the masses will eat it up.

It's like the twilight zone...

[sapo#1]

no surprize!!!!

mosley looked bad in his last two fight = a fight with manny pac

Margarito looked bad in his last 2 fights = a fight with manny pac

Cotto looked bad in his last 2 fights = a fight with manny pac

if you can box if you can move!!! if you are a young prime fighter that poses a threat you will not fight manny pac!!!!!!

MANNY PADDED PAQUAIO!!!!!!

yeah but arum stole money from fighters... and he still does today, why u think mayweather left too?... GBP put Mosley into ALOT of PPVs since he joined them and now turns his back on them i hope he never gets another big fight again..

"This is my take on Bob Arum saying that Mosley has more of a household name," De La Hoya said. "Mosley's last pay-per-view in September, I think he drew about a thousand people and `Canelo' drew about 10,000 people. And I think `Canelo' drew probably 95 percent of the pay-per-view.

"So Bob Arum is saying, `Well, Mosley's a more credible opponent because he's more marketable.' That's not true, that's not true at all. Marquez is the fighter who everybody knows and who everybody wants to see against Pacquiao."

nobody wants to see the mosley fight.

but dlh once again is a PR disaster.

[big_james10]

Bob Arum's actions tell me that the reason that Pac has not fought Mayweather has more to do with the fact that Mayweather is still promoted by Golden Boy. Arum never tried to make a fight in November and since the Margarito fight, he has not even mentioned Golden Boy in relation to Mayweather. He has only mentioned Don King, even though there is no evidence that Mayweather is going to sign with King. If Mayweather chooses to stay with Golden Boy, Arum will not make the fight no matter how much potential money is involved.

no you dummy. wifebeater and mosley are in the same boat. they are with GBP on a case by case basis.

GBP is not wifebeater's promoter
