Comments Thread For: Arum Rips Mayweather's Claims Over Negotiations

[JJRod]

You ruined your previously good post with this comment.

So to the most shrewd scumbag promoter like Arum, it's good to make the fight when no one's interested in the fight already?

The fight is already at peak interest and it is still not being made. My point is this fight will be made sort of the way the Roy Jones Jr/Hopkins II fight was made, when no one really gave a damn anymore, and that is a real shame.

Nah, Manny takes full blame from me. I don't care about a second negotiation because it should've never gotten to that point. Everything was on the table for Pacquiao and he upped and walked away to fight Joshua Clottey. End of story.

well, its your choice to believe that.

I for one am enjoying Pac's remaining fights and hope that sometime soon, one of them would be against floyd.

I do too. However, I'm not enjoying his ****ty fights on pay-per-view, which are adding to my angst.

I agree that it would indeed be a shame, but i'm still hoping for that fight to happen either this year or 2012.

Where have I done this?



Yes, I have personal opinions. I want for Manny and his team to shoot straight and agree to the testing, the same thing I wanted at the end of 2009.

If not Manny, there is a young champion named Andre Berto in the division.

Berto is also a 147 division champion. Berto fans have to wait until Manny defends his title against Mosley plus additional atleast 4 months to be ready to fight again. Manny is a congressman now.

For those people saying Manny or whoever can beat Mayweather or Mayweather will beat anyone. Well... you have to wait until he is on the ring ready to fight again.

I would like to add. If you earning on bashing boxers in this forum I think you might been earning more than a true boxer could do.

errr.. than don't watch it man.

i'm sure there are more options available for you to watch other than Pac's fights. The boxing world doesn't revolve around those two fighters only.

No matter how angsty you are, it won't change who Pac fights. What happens is he gets richer and you only get angrier.

So who's getting the raw deal? Just let it go man. If you simply ignore all Pac's fights that you don't like, it'll spare you a lot of unnecessary discomfort.

I just don't think it will happen.
If both wanted it they would have done it back in late 2009 early 2010.
It really is a shame because not only would it have been an amazing fight, but the money they both would have earned would have been ridiculous.
I always thought Roy Jones and B-Hop were idiots for leaving 20 million dollars on the table because they couldn't figure out how to spit it, but now Pacquiao/Mayweather take the cake because they could potentially leave over 60 million dollars on the table for one nights work.
Simply sad.

Oh I watch. I watch everything because I'm a fan--an addict, really. And as a fan, I have every right to say it's ****ty. But thanks.

true, true.

actually, i'm not bothered that they walked away from a ridiculous amount of money. i'm just bothered that i don't get to see a potential fight of the century.

RRJ/Bhop II was a rematch. The demographics are different to roy/hop as to may/pac. It wouldn't be called the richest fight thus far for nothing.
