If a boxer says he's going on vacation and he's not thinking about boxing, what's the point of discussing whatever Pacman or Arum says? They don't mean anything. Floyd can fight anytime he wants to and with Whoever. If he is not satisfied with Arum/Pac's terms, what stops Floyd from fighting another fighter? Floyd is his own man. Nobody can dictate anything to Floyd. Bottom line is, he can fight someone else if he is not happy with Arum's terms.

Bob Arum is not trying to have Manny against any competitive
fights or fighters affiliated with Golden Boy. Why do Pac fans
continue to blame Mayweather? He wanted to fight and Pac
didn't because according to Amir Kahn "Not mentally ready to
take the tests" Top Rank NEVER intended on making that fight
with Floyd happen. 10MIL dollar penalty if Floyd comes in over
weight? Knowing Floyd is all about money? How confident is
someone that is willing to lose 10MIL if he comes in a LB over
147? Pac fans need to get a clue. Bob Arum, Freddie Roach
and Manny Pacquiao NEVER wanted to make this fight happen.
Bob's already said he couldn't care any less if Pac NEVER fought Mayweather. He's in no hurry like he was for signing Pac to fight Clottey (top rank), Margarito (top rank) and now a 39-40 year old Mosley (part time top rank).
So now we get to listen to Bob contradict himself for the next 4 months attempting to sell Pac vs a "dangerous" Mosley fight.
What do you think this will do 1.1 million? (casual fans still remember Mosley being beaten up by Floyd, so I don't know if it will do more as they will ask "isn't this the guy that Floyd just beat?)
A few guys I know that actually still watch a little boxing every now and then had Pac beating Floyd. They flipped the scipt since Floyd beat Mosley and Pac fought Clottey and Margarito with Mosley on deck.
They know who Mosley is because these guys hate Floyd and all the hardcore floyd haters hyped Mosley up to the point that had people betting on weather or not this "coward Floyd" would even step in the ring with this ATG, super Sugar Shane HOF Mosley, the greatest of all time best of the best killer/fighter/champion...
Man the haters where on a roll with that shyt. The Floyd hater clowns had me as a fan of Mosley thinking.... Man Mosley might get Floyd.. (not really).....
Anyway These dudes bought into it all and more or less got the picture once its was over. They know who Mosley is and the point behind it is, i'm sure a lot of other casual boxing fans that know or HATE Floyd remember who Mosley is too because he got technically beat (bad) by this "coward floyd" (like to call Floyd a coward is still justifiable?)...
Casual fans wont "buy" into Shane being anything great now. Haters already where served there own foot to there mouth on that.... now all I hear is these same simple minded people attempting to justify Pac fighting him? Funny how quickly Pac/Arum JUMP up and sign Mosley now just as soon as he leaves GBP.. like thats not a sign that Bob wont deal with anyone invloved in GBP (like Mayweather or even JMM)Last edited by WESS; 12-27-2010, 04:19 PM.

Bob can make fights when he wants too. He's been doing it for years. Either some people REALLY discredit Bob's talent as a promoter or some people are just ignorant for ONLY pointing there fingers at Floyd. When we all know for a fact Arum is scandalous when it comes to being a promoter.

Originally posted by WESS View PostEveryone like Arum, Pac and Floyd. We can almost drop Pac's name because he's Arums "little duffle bag boy". So its all about Bob and Floyd. We know they have beef. We also know Bob doesn't like to deal with GBP let alone the very same guy that fired him to make millions with the other guy that fired him.

I feel the same as you don't put more blame on one guy then another, they are ALL acting like *****es.

Arum and Pac "really" want Floyd yet they prove it by fighting his leftovers and not real challenges fresh off wins, non weight drained, or at the top of their game.
Floyd will wind up fighting Sergio in 2011. And Pac will get bodied once again without Floyd laying a glove on him.
