Comments Thread For: Arum's Mayweather-Pacquiao Deal May Block Golden Boy

[Boxingtech718v2]

What if both fighters cut out Arum and GB? Lets face it why do they need a promoter? The fight promotes itself all they have to do is make a couple of commercials, 24/7 episodes, stop by ESPN FirstTake to see troll Skip Bayless, and tour a couple of maybe 4 cities. Each fighter would make a record amount of money. And if I were them I would puposely have a controversial draw and have a rematch to make more money. I know I would!

Arum is such a snake, he is trying to swindle money out of Mayweather, because he doesnt want to deal with a shark like Schafer.

I enjoy GBP undercards so I hope they are involved.

Or he's trying to cut another 3rd party out. Without GBP the money split is bigger for everyone involved. Plus Floyd Has Mayweather Promotions and only hires GBP because his company doesnt have the tools to promote his large money fights like GBP does. Why bring in GBP when they are simply not needed.

I honestly dont give a **** as long as the fight is done

Because they dont have the tools to promote big fights like this? Its not that simple. Im not sure who holds the promoters license in both their companies but it takes ALOT to promote a fight let alone this fight

Exactly. Didn't get where he is by being an idiot either, a point he keeps proving to GBP over and over again, but they just don't seem to get the point. Last year he made them look like absolute clowns in the media- had Floyd hiding on 'vacation', had Schaefer and Ellerbe contradicting what everyone knew and what HBO said, had Oscar being 'misquoted' in video interviews. He planted the seeds for Floyd's flirtation period with Don King. Then this year he stole JMM and Mosley from right under their nose, got around 3 million PPV buys and $20 mil in gate revenues out of it. Then when GBP tried to retaliate by poaching Donaire, Arum clowned them again.

This is just exhibit F or whatever we're up to now. They tried to make Arum look bad in public, and he responded by freezing them out of the most lucrative bout in history. Checkers vs chess as usual.

Wow, didn't know that Bob Arum had groupies. I know that you've already stained your shorts, but I wouldn't bet that what's said in that socalled quote is true. A big reason that Arum has been so successful over the years is because of his ability to manipulate the simple-minded. He counts on people like you.

its bull****. floyd would never do a full co promotion with top rank. never. he doesnt have a license and he needs gbp to represent his interests. arum seems to be going outta his way to cause dissent in mayweather's team. dude is a true *******.

Why is everyone on here burying Arum like he is the only dishonest business man in the world. If you think Mayweather's guys Golden Boy and all the other promoters aren't backstabbing piece's of **** who do underhanded crap you a idiot. To single out Arum like he don king is ridiculous their all underhanded double dealing jerkoffs. Who gives a **** who gets screwed out of money it doesn't affect me or your tools one bit. I just want to see a geat fight and an exciting undercard.
