Comments Thread For: Arum Talks Pacquiao, Mayweather, Ariza Rumors, More

[BesWorldChamp]

Usual Arum tactics... People always blame Floyd unnecessarily for these downfalls... Arum is the man that kills these negotiations.. It isn't Manny, it isn't Floyd. He always comes up with something to avoid or lie about. When this fight happens... like flint said.. Floyd is going to beat Manny handily. I think it'll be like Hopkins vs Pavlik.. Pac is a great fighter but Floyd is in a class by himself. Floyd doesn't get hit and is sharp offensively.. He is the best because of pure talent and ring intelligence. No one is smarter than Floyd in the ring. As a matter of fact.. I think Manny can beat anyone except Floyd.

Manny's brilliant combination of speed, punching power, punching from angles, and solid chin make him in a class of his own also.

lol pacquiao KO hatton in 2. dominate dela hoya, cotto, margarito, clottey.

you think mayweather will have an easy fight with pacquiao? stfu

mayweather may win but easy fight? stfu

while i wont go as far to say he will have an easy time in beating pac, it wont be the battle people think. manny makes a ton of mistakes in his bouts. a astute student of the game like floyd will make him pay every time. if jmm was as fast as pac, he would have put an awful beating on pac. my real concern is ssm will ko pac and ruin the sex apeal of this fight. this fight will go like all floyd fights. by the 3rd round floyd will make adjustments and leave pac in the dust. top rank did pac a dis-service by feeding him all those soup cans as legit competition. pac is cool but he dont make adjustments in the fight. i dont think he will be properly prepared for floyd.

While everyone else wants to fight Manny Pacquiao, Runaway Floyd has had two opportunities to sign with Pacquiao, and he's run off into hiding to fight a neighborhood security guard, and cheer on his Uncle Roger roughing up a woman. That's a helluva note. Mayweather also walked away from a guaranteed $20m payday for a rematch with Dela Hoya, as most that saw that fight believe Oscar won that fight, and Floyd didn't like getting hit the way he did. Floyd wants NO risk in the ring.

wow! you might want to verify some of your facts before you put them out for all to see. first, pac and arum walked away from the first set of negotiations and filed a lawsuit on top of that. then floyd never participated in the second set of negotiation. greenburg and hbo has NEVER handled floyds afairs. and its not about risk in the ring, its about being compensated for what you do. manny has drawn some very good numbers lately and was only paid half of what floyd would have got. arum continues to screw pac out of what he should get.

Arum knows Pac is not fighting Floyd any time soon.

Manny Pacquiao s next opponents;

1) Juan Manuel Marquez - contingent of JMM resigning w GBP which I dont think he will considering that he did not fight Morales.

2) Timothy Bradley- Contingent if Bradley signs with Top Rank which I think he will.

3) Andre Berto- Very possible if Floyd wont fight Manny with in a years time and Al Haymon allows it.

4) Julio Cesar Chavez Jr - If Jr wins a 160lbs tittle than Manny would go up to 155lbs catch weight and fights and destroys JR.

I am by no way a ******* but Manny beats them all. Poor Marquez above 140 will get Hattoned.

[LeadUppercut]

Promoter Bob Arum of Top Rank, while saying that Jeff Mayweather is factual about somebody wanting to bring the Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao to South Africa, also remarked Tuesday that "I'm not holding my breath" waiting for a follow up......

I knew that Ariza would train Manny for Shane.

That earlier report was..... inaccurate.

i can guarantee this. if mayweather can avoid prisom. manny pac will get the beating of his life.so much has been said.jokes have been told,and jealous haters continue to hate.but on fight night,should it happen.floyd money mayweather knowing the world is watching will completely embarrass pac.

well the problem is ur hero FMJ think otherwise that he will be whupped by Pac thats why he will not step into the ring with him..whats more knowledgeable about his opponents but the fighters themselves isnt it?? not u

[Check_hooks]

Camp Mayweather is against spewing bull****. No way they can have the fight of the century set up by June or July when Pacquiao already signed the contract for May 7th.

This is all moot anyways because Floyd is going to jail where he belongs for a long long time.

[Hyper Knuckles]

I think Floyd's a little bit too much for him, Pac is great but as was mentioned before, you can't truly evaluate him based on the level of opposition he's faced in the ring and the ridiculous stipulations/demands in some of those fights. This one will make or break Manny, he won't have any room to call the shots as both fighters are on top of the world right now. If anyone can neutralize the controlled frenzy of Pacquiao it's Mayweather. Just sayin.

[npad69]

if the fight ever happens. mayweather whoops easy.the fans will be in shock on how easy and comical it will bemayweather is the slickest and most skilled fighter today. pac has never faced anybody like this .i hope the fight happen so i can laugh my ass off at the pactoid nut huggers.

wow! you really are in to fantasy fights! i bet you do cosplays too!

[komandante]

Manny Pacquiao will beat Floyd Mayweather jr if and when the fight happens.
