Comments Thread For: Arum Responds To Marquez on Pacquiao Fight Claims

[KingOfBox]

c'mon man you don't need to see those emails, all you have to do is look at jmm's history of overpricing himself.

jmm priced himself out of a fight with morales when both were with top rank.

jmm priced himself out of an immediate rematch with pac.

the only sane conclusion is that jmm priced himself out of a rubbermatch with pac. there's no way jmm is making more than what he made against wifebeater. no ****in way.

Typical of an undercover Pac defender...

Funny how Pac and Arum can do no wrong in some of your eyes....

comm'n Juan, you need to beat Berto first before you earn the next spot for a Pac payday...

147? Im glad it didnt get signed then. Fight should be at 140. Pacman can make that easy. At, 147 Pacman steam rolls him. The closer the weight to their 2 previous fights the more evenly matched it can be.

JMM never refuted that he asked for the $5 million plus $5 per, which would have come out to $7.5 million if they sold 1 million PPV.

He asked for $7.5 when he got $3.2 against PBF and makes at most $1.5 against anyone else. He is a dumbass.

JMM knows he wouldn't fare as well against Pac now.. it's 2011 *****es

It would be hilarious if Top Rank posted the emails on their website kinda like they did the Mayweather countdown.....lol

What they (Team Mayweather and Pac) should do is wait for Floyd's legal problems to subside, sign the contracts, take the damn tests so Floyd can finally slap this little toddler around for 12 rounds.

JMM deserved to ask for more against Pacquiao because he will play a part in selling the PPV. They already have the built in history and record for the most PPV's sold for a fight under 130. Pacquiao-Marquez II sold 400K

JMM got almost 25% of the guaranteed money against Mayweather (Mayweather was guaranteed $10M) and that was only because it was uncertain as to how much the fight would actually sell or he might've gotten more. Pacquiao gets guaranteed more than $15M, if we were to stick to what he got against Mayweather, $5M is around what he should get.

Arum had Mosley locked in, since right after the Margarito fight when Mosley went to Top Rank and told him he wasn't with GBP anymore. I remember a tweet around November that was posted on here, when Mosley wasn't even thought of as the primary option, where he said he was going to fight Pacquiao and plenty called him crazy. Mosley was always the option.

dumb azz!

I didn't like the marg fight and I don't like the mosley fight.

arum is scum and is probably ripping off all his boxers right now.

but that doesn't mean that jmm ain't overpricing himself, because he is!

now go stick your foot in your mouth idiot.

[Horvo]

how much is mosley expected to make?
i thought manny was the cash cow as his dumb ass fans say if thats true than marquez should get more against manny than he did against floyd
manny high guarantee has only been 7.7 yet if he was to fight floyd i bet all his fans will feel that he deserves more than 7.7 guarantee so why not the same for marquez?

I thought Mosley was going to get a couple $million less than he got against PBF. But JMM is worth two and a half times what he got against PBF?

Where do you get Pacquiao making $7.7 from? He's been making more than that in his last few fights.

nah man, jmm ain't getting anymore than he got for wifebeater. if jmm beat wifebeater, I'd say he deserves 60/40 maybe even 50/50. if jmm beat khan or timmeh/devon or berto, I'd say he'd deserve a little bit more than what he got for wifebeater... if jmm beat maidana and khan and timmeh devon winner and berto, I'd say he deserves 70/30 or 60/40.

but coming off a humiliating loss to wifebeater and whuppin on juan diaz who he already beat, and then whupping on katsidis doesn't get him more than what he got for wifebeater.

I mean c'mon!

well he says he has them rite whats so hard to post them or at least show them to the writer. If he really had something he would of showed it to clear up the story but arum is lying piece of you know what. Plus you dont see a recuring theme all the fighters you mention are fighters who where arums cash cows dont you think he tried to protect his investment sort of like what he is doing with juanma lopez right now?
