You're right, but in this instance Keith deserves to be called a fraud. Why? Because of articles like these, and others such as 'Are Mayweather's PPV numbers a hoax'. I didn't see him doing the same thing after Pac -vs- Mosley, did you? There's the other article I posted from Nov 4th where Keith blindly suspects Mayweather booked May 5th at the MGM Grand as a PR stunt, yet in light of recent findings on Pac, Arum et co has failed to mention anything on the topic. He's even done well to keep his opinion to himself on this article, yet every one he wrote about Mayweather, the fraud always had something clever to say.

Has any strength and conditioning coach in boxing history had as big a platform as Ariza? The guy's only job is to make sure Pacquiao exercises and takes his vitamins, but every week we have essays dedicated to his thoughts on global warming, international economics, yadda yadda yadda. Even when Heredia's story broke, he did one interview where he said like 3 sentences.

Ariza sure loves to give his opinion on things and hear his own voice

That's not a fraud...That just being a biased writer or a horrible journalist or both.

Boxing has terrible writers/journalist. The only people I read is Thomas Hauser(probably the last real journalist left) Cliff Rold, Jake Donovan, Ernest Gabion, Kenneth Bouharie.

Dont you think he has the inside scoop on things close to him , its funny how if he were bagging May and siding with Arum you would be putting him on a pedestal , you *******s are the biggest flip flopping double standard people on boxing scene , you have one agenda hate on May , hate on anything said positive about May .

I love the way *******s slowly come out from under their rocks as the days go by after a bad Pac performance , they did the same after the Mosley fight , silent hill for days and then like **** roaches they start creeping back with their hate lol .

You *****s aren't much better.

Anyway the point is Ariza's opinion deserves to be taken seriously, regardless of the reporter. He's close to Manny and knows some of the ins and outs of what's going on, and we can learn something from his opinion. I mean he could be an over-emotional wreck, but he's at least being coherent in everything he's saying so far.

I agree. Dude is spilling the beans because he is basically walking the plank for a while now. But lets be honest, when everyone other than Pacquiao fans was saying what Ariza has recently said, they were considered *****s or Pac haters but it was always the truth. Basically the only people who didn't want to believe it were Pac fans (majority of them). Nobody was taking up for Floyd because Arum painted the picture and set the stage for all the back and forth debates and disrespect. Pacquiao fans on here were giving posters red k for what Alex Ariza is saying now. Why couldn't they just see it too? Ridiculous.

Arum tried to do the same to Roach, but it seems that's been done for long ago. *****s think this has any negative effect on Pacquiao... Keep dreaming.

Are you a paranoid rat living in a drain , this is not about Pac its about Arum has been the one stopping the fight from happening , something we have been telling you for 3 yrs , but no it was all May hate , well kid you were wrong .

Worst interview ever. First, no Floyd/Manny follow up questions. Second, the questions appeared to be based on premises that were never fully explained.

All I could gather was that Ariza is mad that Arum doesn't want him working with Top Rank fighters. Would you?

The guy basically calls Arum a crook (which is probably true) and expects Arum not to respond?

Finally, can anybody tell me what the hell Ariza does? Is he a boxing trainer or just a cheerleader? I can put blocks on the floor and have the fighters jump over them -- we did the same **** in high school gym class, remember. That's it, he is just a glorified gym teacher.

lol, glorified gym teacher . . . hit it right on the head . . .
