    In the event of it not going forward we will make a 4th JMM bout ,,,,,

    Thats Arums real intentions , he cannot look like he is not trying to make a May fight because the world is looking right at him , this is Arums normal behavior set up a big smoke and mirrors scenario off noname interested investors and then say we cant make the fight because Floyd dont want it ..

    Arum is a snake and I dont believe a word he says .

        But a fight that's guaranteed to return on big investments is a no brainer for anyone looking to turn a quick, easy profit. That's why you had groups from South Africa, Singapore, etc all willing to guarantee the fighters $50-$65 million so readily and eagerly. They invest $100-130 million, the fight makes $300-400 million. So they make a ridiculous profit in like 4 months and all they have to do is make a down payment.

        I remember in the very beginning, back in late '09 Arum mentioned that some major companies like Pepsi were looking to get in on the action. If Floyd gets a guarantee he likes and a pro like Arum is putting the thing together... why is GBP necessary? Especially since as far as we know, Floyd isn't signed to their company, so why pay them when he doesn't have to?

        Amateurish **** by GBP to not sign any form of contract and just freelance (unless they have some official paperwork we don't know about). They must've ****ted their pants when Floyd was flirting with Don King last year. This news won't make them happy either.

              GBP not involved. Interesting if true.

                      Lets just hope Floydie doesn't duck the fighter of the decade this time.
