      **** arum. his whole plan all along was to pick mosley. Berto and Marquez were fumes all along. He has made it clear time and time again that he doesnt give a **** about the fans/ sport. The only thing he cares about is his money. You guys think he cares about making pacquiao look better than he really is? He said the same **** when floyd was with top skank.

              and i disagreed with them when they were whining about floyd-odlh and hatton-floyd.

              only a fool would turn down that kind of money.


              i believe in fighters taking the most money they can get.

              eventually the most money will also be the best fight.

                So who would you say brings in the most money for Pac out of the three selected by Arum?

                  man I Hate these topics, if he fights mosley, he is avoiding jmm or berto who we know would get their ass whooped

                  if he fights jmm he is afraid of mosley and berto

                  if he fights berto he is afraid mosley and jmm

                  Yes arum has his agenda to make the most money but pac only cares about one fight and this should be clear, maywetather, when floyd stops b-t-ching out, the fight will happen because pac will demand arum to make it

                  as for the others, he is obviously just fighting whoever arum asks him to fight

                  What you should know ts is that Arum will make the biggest money fight if he can, if he was protecting pac as you are trying to suggest, no fcking way would he have fought barrera or morales! no way at all, those were the biggest fights at the time which earned arum to the most money

                  right now mosley will most likely earn more than the other 2

                  now you can quote me on this, once pac beats shane, if mayweather still refuses to fight, pac will fight jmm in around july time, why because that will make the most money

                  after that, you know whats happening, if mayweather isnt an option, there will be a pac vs cotto/marg rematch

                  you admitted your article is biased so i cant have a go at you, also merry x mas

                  Believe it or not but pac is a yes man, apart from the mayweather fight, put a cow in front of pac and he will agree to it if arum does it.

                  I really wish pac leaves top rank as he has beaten all their top guys, go to golden boy and fight their guys now

                    simple as that.


                    Arum's agenda is actually quite simple.

                      Nobody would say Pac is ducking anyone if he fought either Berto or JMM. I think more fans are wanting Pac vs JMM more than anyone else ouy of the three. The most deserving if the fight is at WW, is Berto. People are saying he's ducking Berto because HE'S THE CHAMPION unlike Mosley who WAS the champion and Pac avoided him AT THAT TIME. That's the point. Avoidance.

                      As for Pac fighting barrera or morales. Those are great, I never discredited anything Pac did until 2008. Post Hoya. I knew once that circus act took place and bring him to the superstar level it would be a joke. We've seen it once already and as a fan of Pac I watched it again.

                      My entire point behind it all is that the avoidance of fighters at certain times. He has yet to face a champion since Cotto. Even when fighting Cotto there had to be some kind of "catch" to it. Just as there had to be for Mosley as he was no de la hoya. Its the hand selecting certain fighters at certain weight classes at certain weights. De La Hoya at WW but a demanded a catcheweight for Cotto's title? FIghting a career subpar WW cheater at a catchweight for a vacant JMW title. Demanding that a LW must fight at WW when Pac himself didn't even fight for his WW title without a "catchweight".

                      Just that Pac cant get in the ring and fight. There is always something. I haven't seen a GREAT fight since Cotto but even that was GOOD because of the ****** catchweigth they demanded. Before Cotto was JMM II.... Its disappointing and I blame Floyd just as much as I blame Pac for the fight not happening but ite more and more clear of how Pac is avoiding other fighters too NOT just Mayweather.... People cant point fingers just at Mayweather when Pac wont even fight the WW Champions like Mosley at the time or Berto. Let alone JMM....

                      Look at it this way 3 champions are calling Pac out. 3 Champions in there own respected weight class...

                      JMM (LW Champion) is willing to fight at JWW/WW (it should be at JWW)
                      Berto (WW Champion)
                      Martinez (Career JMW/Former JMW Champion/current MW Champion)

                      Yet we get Mosley now? We already seen this fight when Arum/Pac selected Clottey....

                      You're not disturbed by the selections? Clottey, Margarito and now Mosley with Cotto II AT 154 on deck?
