Is Bob Arum the true reason why Floyd and Pacman haven't fought?

[edgarg]

yeah. It is Arum's fault. Imagine trying to do business with that slimeball

Well, I think you'll be able to feel happy that you will NEVER get to the position in life where you might even pass him in the street.

Arum works for Manny, not the other way around.

No, the fighter works for the promoter. Bob Arum signs Mannys checks, not theother way around.

"I feel that Arum wants to milk Pacquaio for all that he can before cashing out in a Mayweather fight..."

this is i think based on arum only considering a single fight...

considering the very big $$ involve, pac, arum and floyd will not be closed to having a rematch and even a trilogy..$$ speaks for itself...

delaying the first fight much longer may not work - schedule wise; as both fighters are approaching their careers' twilight..

so arum may not be really the one holding off the fight

Some reason and logic at LAST. There is NO reason for Arum to hold up the fight. He's in the business of making fights which are good for the fighter, the company and the public.

Look how many times he tried in the past few years to make this fight, even involving Mr. Greenburg of HBO in the negotiations, because he himself had had no success.

it's a disgrace to see how many low level mentalities (and that's everybody and their grandfather) are so quick to jump on him for something not in his power to do.

Mannys manager works for him..Manny works for Arum. No mqtter how bad you want to deny it hes a Top Rank Fighter.

Pac doesn't have to fight anyone who Arum puts in front of him. Arum has to promote any fight Pac wants.

Therefor Arum works for Pac, not the other way around.

The only one in denial here is you.

Arum is a slave owner. Pacquaio is his best slave.

I don't think slaves are willing to be slaves though

Arums the promoter, he picks the fighters and venues and Manny and his camp decide which fighter he wants

Promotes the fight, gives the fighter money for his training expenses, transportation, and boarding. After the fight the promoter comes into the locker room and has the fighter sign his name to the check and money is then transferred from the promoters bank account into the fighters...i dont know how many employees pay their bosses maybe you can help me out.
