Comments Thread For: Top Rank's DuBoef on Mayweather-Pacquiao, GBP, More

[LeadUppercut]

I remember reading both Floyd and Todd were buddy buddy at one of the Football games at Cowboys Stadium (I think the same pic with Arum and Floyd together).

They talk all the time, mostly NOT about boxing.

[IMDAZED]

Sure, but it was a bull**** non-committal, sound-good, feel-good, response.

Todd knows Arum better than anyone, thats all I'm saying.

It was. Which is exactly why I said it was well-played. Top Rank is his employer, BTW. He handled the question well, without BS'ing or touting the company line.

[brick wall]

the media has speculated too much on this pac-floyd saga that got a lot of people to believe a lot of those speculations especially those people with agenda.

Funny how Mayweather Promotions "needs" GBP regularly. If Mayweather Promotions was a real promotional company and wanted the Pacquiao-Mayweather fight, they would go straight to Top Rank. BUT NOOOOOOOOOO.

why would he work soley with a guy who owes him money still??

Good point, that is exactly what he did.

No.

Arum intentionally played the media, and is continuing to do so.

Many members of the media have been duped more than once.

A lot of boxing fans are pretty ******, so yes, they believed Arum's bull****.

It is not difficult to see how the casual fans have been duped.

But it is mind-blowingly unfathomable how the media got ****** in.

Might as well be listening to Arum.

"No issues". Yeah, right.

They are not negotiating bro, just like last time.

Nothing will come of this.

Sorry, but I see Pac/Cotto II on the near horizon.

Only one person on the face of the planet earth is insisting that negotiations are underway (just like last time)..... all of the people (bar none) who are critical to that fight being made, are insisting that no negotiations are underway.

Arum is playing Manny and the media, again, just like last time.

NO negotiations take place without Al Haymon, Arum is well-aware of that.

The only person on the face of the planet earth who can force that fight.....

..... is Manny.

He needs to smarten up and take control of his career.
