PAC FANS: Do you think manny should leave Bob Arum?

[sosolid4u09]

And go freelance like floyd is?
Arum is making serious money off him and he deserves credit for getting manny to where he is now. But i cant shake the feeling that Pacquiao has outgrown Arum now. its nothing personal its just good business.

But i guess Pac has too much on his plate like congress, movies etc to be bothered with promoting himself full time.

And i also feel the floyd v pac fight would be easier to negotiate if arum wasn't in the picture.

what do you think? Should pac go freelance?

[Alx.]

obviously, he has like 5 more fights in him and there are so many fighters right now i want to see him against

[JOM'S]

Pac has about ~2 years left I dont think drastic change will do him good like changing promoters, we dont need legal problems to the plate...

but i definetly agree the factor that PAC-PBF could be made easier without TR should be considered, if Manny-Floyd is not made by next year, leaving TR is best option for the fight being made...

[komodo]

Manny dosen't have much time left in boxing and I dont know the contract that he currently has with Arum but a lawsuit can see him sidelined for a considerable amount of time, time which he dose not have.

Based on that I wouldn't advise him to go out on his own a few years ago yeah but it's kind of pointless now I mean Arum's making him big money with less headache compared to promoting himself so why change.

[baCCaT]

for the pbf fight, he should. just make sure everythings in order though.

[Stigma]

No, I don't think he should.

Arum gets a lot of **** around here about being a scumbag, being a liar, whatever. Truth be told, I think he's underappreciated. You look at the biggest names in boxing in the last five or ten years. Your big three: De La Hoya, Mayweather, and Pacquiao have all been brought up by Arum and Top Rank. His matchmakers know what they're doing, and he knows how to cultivate careers. He's been behind a wealth of great champions and he clearly knows what needs to be done.

Whether they, or you guys, like it or not Arum is directly responsible for the success and popularity of those three I mentioned, as well as countless others. Morales comes to mind. Etc.

[Khalid X]

For what....cause Floyd said so?

Arum isn't preventing anything and it's sad people sit up and believe Floyd when all that is is just excuse to duck Manny.

I'm really tired of that pvssy and I just realized after the Ortiz fight that Floyd never had any intention on facing Manny, rather he just came back to take some easy fights, throw dirt on his name and try to take some of his shine away due to being jealous of him as a fighter.

[Khalid X]

And I fully expect his clown fan boys to cry about my username being the reason behind me stating those things.

Whatever, but watch the excuses that will arise after Pacquiao vs Marquez.

No doubt everyonen will see that Floyd never had any attention of facing Manny.....regardless of that fake contract and signature and whatever lies his team has came out with.

[Deevel916]

Yes! I actually wouldnt mind seeing Pac align himself with Dibella. Dibella seems like a genuine guy who looks out for his fighters best interests.

[Stigma]

Dibella comes across as an obnoxious pseudo-alcoholic, itching to land a legitimate great fighter. And he won't. Because he can't manage. Who has brought to the world stage recently? Berto?
