Comments Thread For: Arum: Who Cares What Schaefer Says? He's Not Involved!

[Twako]

We all just got ****ed over..... AGAIN !!

OBVIOUSLY, Bob Arum is lying.

OBVIOUSLY, you do not turn up at a boxing gym to discuss business..... OBVIOUSLY, you do not turn up unannounced..... OBVIOUSLY, you would make an appointment with the fighters chosen representatives.

That is horse-****, and Bob Arum is lying for a reason.

He will not feed Manny to Mayweather yet, he is priming his excuse now.

Hard luck guys, you all just got ****ed over again.

You Pac fans should be ashamed of that coward Manny.

so i guess floyd ready to sign a contract is just his normal self talking out of his ass?

[thatnickuh]

As are Floyd and GBP (liars), just like when Ross Greenburg contradicted their assertion that there hadn't been negotiations for Pac-Mayweather last year.

Yes, because Greenburg had no reason to lie or misrepresent the truth right? His word is the Gospel right?

[KnockUTheFukOut]

lol at Arum and his "INVESTORS"

It is no ***in way Al Haymon and Mayweather side is going to trust any Investors that Arum Recommends...these better be BIG NAME WELL KNOW INVENTORIES!

Not just some random guy from Hawaii or what ever the *** Arum claimed before

As are Floyd and GBP (liars), just like when Ross Greenburg contradicted their assertion that there hadn't been negotiations for Pac-Mayweather last year. I gotta laugh at Floyd's nuthuggers crawling out of the woodwork and lambasting Arum as a liar, holding up Floyd, Shaeffer etc. as beacons of honesty. How naive can you be?

I don't doubt Arum is a snake. I don't doubt he mingles in half-truths. But I'm willing to see what happens here. I'm certainly not surprised that investment groups are interested in underwriting what is certainly going to be the biggest, most lucrative fight ever. And I certainly don't think Koncz showed up for a photo opportunity with a man he's on record as hating...

It looks to me like the wheels are turning in this promotion, or they might be... You clowns keep picking sides though. I'm happy to be objective. I'd hate to be simply pro-Floyd or pro-Manny. You guys should take some advice, and grow the fck up. BE PRO-BOXING

That first paragraph convinced me that you are just a pig-ignorant idiot.

How ****** can you be ?

You *******s are hilarious..... you believed that second negotiation rubbish, which is laughable, and then you accused others of being naive

You are a superstar dude

arum wants outside investors because, obviously, floyd wants more than $50 million and he doesn't want to risk offering floyd more than that for fear of not getting it back. meaning, what if it didn't do well as expected? we're not even sure who's calling the shots anymore. arum is not even needed except for consultation purposes as he's the more experienced one in the business. pacquiao's manager and whoever is in team floyd's side can put this thing together without arum. this fight doesn't need a lot of promoters. but since arum is the best for the job, these investors can opt to offer him the same role, and gbp might be given a slice of it.

I don't see how you are right. Top Rank is Pacquiao's promote, which automatically means that they are involved in every fight he has, for as long as the contract runs. And the Promoter retains a contracted amount. What Arum means by his comment is that all the money needed for this promotion would be guaranteed by the investor(s) and in case of a shortfall, they, not he would be liable, since he would only be acting in a functionary capacity, doing the job and getting his usual cut.

I can't see it any other way.

The fight is off people, it will not take place on May 5th, end-of-story.

Bob has decided, and he has the majority fooled again.

Thank you pac-fans, well done.

Manny Pacquiao..... you are a dirty coward.

[edgarg]

I think that you also have a head like steel.

You neglected to include the "compliment" part...... And as a matter I have...or had. I had 62 amateur fights which were without headguards, and was KD for NO count one time only in my last fight, and never cut or bled.

Meet edgar. Ex-amateur boxer. Part-time lawyer. Part-time psychiatrist. Part-time judge. Part-time accountant. Full-time loser. Don't believe me? Check his post history. Amazing what he's done during his 13 years of existence on Earth.

Posted this on another thread but needs to be read....

Manny Pacquiao fans are the funniest fans I've ever witnessed. They basically called Floyd every name in the book regarding Pac and now that Floyd is actually speaking up about fighting and telling Manny to step up. Pac fans want to STILL try and blame Floyd for ducking this fight? you guys have exposed yourselves as the biggest jock sniffing, ball sack hugging, no life having, idol worshipping, sheep mentality people I have EVER seen in my life. Everytime it's an excuse. JMM exposes him and Pac fans come up with some sort of excuse on why Pac didn't look good by claiming he stepped on his foot and so forth. EVENTHOUGH! They claim Pac won and even have slow motion footage to prove it?

How funny and pathetic is that? Then they said that Floyd is not offensively better than Marquez? Who in the hell says something like that if you are truly a boxing fan? Trying to make excuses on Pac's loss by putting JMM on a pedestal EVENTHOUGH they said JMM stepped on Pac's foot? Man, talk about groupies. Reminds me of Happy Days with "The Fonz". Now you hear. Floyd was just waiting for Manny to look like crap in a fight to want a piece of Pac? Floyd reserved the MGM grand before Pac fought JMM AND lets take it back. Floyd was ready to fight Pac back in 09 but Pac wanted a piece of P4P Joshua Clottey who just lost to Cotto who Pac beat prior? That's why it always makes me laugh when people say that Pac's legacy is more intact then Floyd's? Bull****.

Everything has and is being revealed and at the end of the day. Pac hurt his own legacy by letting Bob Arum pimp his ass and not making the Mayweather fight do to personal and greed issues. Pac tried so much to beat guys better than Floyd that it blew up in his face. I don't completely blame Arum for controlling Pac because Manny is going along with it. He doesn't want the fight because if he did he would not be talking like this. Funny how Arum and Manny said that they wanted Mayweather when he was retired but both times he came back. They did the electric slide and fought another guy Floyd already beat. What a fraud.

If this doesn't say it all about Bob Arum's intentions on making this fight. I don't know what will.

Arum also indicated he would like Pacquiao to get through the Hatton fight before going up against Mayweather saying“I want Mayweather to stay there (in retirement) until September. The longer he’s out the more rusty he’ll be."

"It's not so much that I give a damn whether this fight happens--I don't -- and for me it's not the greatest experience doing a promotion with Floyd Mayweather," Arum said. "But not to do this fight would slow down the momentum of boxing."

Truth is the truth Manny fans and it is outhere. The only thing you guys are doing is making yourselves look like complete and utter IDIOTS for believing the hype and telling other people who been saying this that they don't know what they are talking about because of your love for one fighter in a whole sport. Mostly EVERYONE in the sport of boxing who saw the fight said Pac lost to JMM and got a gift 2 weeks ago and you STILL try to spin it. Alex Ariza said Arum is working on stopping the fight and you STILL try to spin it. Floyd said he will sign the contract today and for Pac to sign it and you STILL try to spin it? Pathetic.
