Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather Jr: The Great Disappointment

[GRUSTLER]

1ST EXCUSE.. "can we do blood testing on PAC?" 2ND EXCUSE.. "I want more than 50/50 split because I beat overaged SHANE MOSLEY" 3RD EXCUSE.. "Uncle might be in jail cause he assaulted a girl".. 4TH EXCUSE.. "I'm just not thinking about BOXING right now.." 5TH EXCUSE... he didn't make one.. he just stayed quiet when BOB ARUM tried to call his ass....

I hear you and Floyd indeed say these things but at the end of
discussion Manny called off the fight when both parties were
at the table. Would not have been no need for any excuses
if Pac would have agreed, instead of suing everybody then
going on to fight Joshua Clottey. Would have been no reason
for Floyd to have any excuses if Pac would have done the
right thing and oblige Mayweather, like Mayweather did to
Pac request. The whole situation was over blown. Now
Floyd is in these messed up predictaments and can't or is
not thinking about fighting in general and all of a sudden
Pacquiao is the guy who wants the fight and Floyd is ducking?
That's not fair or how it should go at all.

Floyd's messed up predicament is 100% his fault. He can't blame anyone but himself for his regrettable actions. Heck, one can say that he's showing symptoms of PED abuse through roid rage.

BOB ARUM, end thread!

I'd like to think its Bob who convinces Pac on who to fight and manipulates the situation, but in the end of the day, its Pac who signs on the dotted line.

Right, but Pac's signing what Bob gave him. Just like now, Bob gave him Mosley, Berto and JMM. He had to pick out of those 3 yet we all know BOB really wanted mosley since he's.....(insert excuse) NOT SO GOLDEN or NOT SO GOOD. You be the judge.

Bob is the one that makes or breaks the deals/fights. If you don't think so, your discrediting a veteran promoter and saying he cant do his job.

He has an agenda....

I think his agenda is simply to make as much money as he can before he kicks the bucket.

But i do agree with you that he is indeed a very accomplished promoter.

Heck, i even joked a while ago that he is some dark sith lord who uses mind powers to manipulate people to do his bidding and make fights that HE wants.

Someone even called him a ***di night.

"***di night" lol,

Well he does have borderline "GOD money", that's almost like tricking people into doing what ever you desire. He can make a lot of money without Mayweather. Why risk it right? If there's a risk there's a "catch".

Bob has an agenda and yes it's to make money and as we all know its not with Golden Boy or Mayweather. He uses the media to his advantage and simple minded folks believe what ever the magical box that displays pictures on it says. That's what the media is supposed to do and they do there job very well just as Bob does his. Boxing needs a bad guy and someone to point fingers at and blame everything for even if its not logical or makes any kind of sense. Floyd's already said you're welcome!

At the end of the day, Bob has gotten EXACTLY what he's wanted and you will notice Mayweather has NOTHING to do with it.

Well, i can't dispute you with Bob's not wanting to deal with Floyd. There's obviously much bad blood between them, and its well within the realm of reason to suspect Bob not wanting to put more money into Floyd's pocket.

You my friend have made my day. That's the only thing we are
trying to say. No hating on Pac but not liking the fact that their
acting like Floyd is the problem and clearly it is Bob Arum who is
in control of the situation. Bob Arum tried to do to Floyd what
he did to Oscar prior, that he did/doing to Cotto and now Pac.
Which is controling their careers. Oscar and Floyd's personality
were too strong for Bob to strong arm them and that's why
they bounced. We all know that Arum has beef and grudges
with everyone to the point that he don't want to break bread
with any other promoter and if a fighter wants to fight Top Rank
fighters they have to leave their promotional companies. Arum
is for sure the man. Again, refreshing to see that you can see
the big picture.
