Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather-Guerrero in Play, The Event Will Fail

[Hougigo]

When I bought my tickets in san jose, Guerrero was on his way to selling out the HP pavilion. He's got a ton of fans that will pay to see him fight. If Arum thinks Timothy Bradely has more fans than Guerrero he's obviously getting old. A Mayweather fight with The Ghost will be more competitive then Canelo.

He really doesn't, I'm willing to admit that. Also they'll be able to make a saddening 24/7 with Guererro... I still don't think they'll choose him though.

i hope this fight doesnt happen but it won't be because arum want its to fail.i'd rather see money fight martinez. this whole thing is arums fault.arum and pacquiao were talking **** about mayweather and now that the judge adjusted things alittle.arum has been making excuses and back peddling since.

i don't know. she will get her check or cash after the fight but i bet it was or will be a pretty good payday. can't blame her.

I couldn't get past the fourth paragraph or so, that article is disturbing. I was beginning to think to myself that someone on the BoxingScene staff needs to tell this guy something then I realized it's really no different from the countless talking heads and media who are paid to give ridiculous opinions and incite the masses. It works, as evidenced by the reaction Ronnie gets, including me taking the time to post a comment.

Listen....

Manny Pacquiao die hard fans and whoever else think that Floyd was/is ducking Pac is blindly in love with Manny. I have been following this whole fiasco since it started and all it took was these two quotes from Bob Arum to show me that he never wanted to make the fight.

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."

The only people Pac supporters should be cursing out and calling names is Bob Arum and Manny Pacquiao. Everyone else pretty much knew that Pac wasn't on Floyd's level. Don't believe me? Just ask Freddie Roach.....

NUFF SAID!

"We'll have a change in sparring partners and style because Mayweather is so different than our last four opponents [Cotto, Ricky Hatton, De La Hoya and David Diaz]. We have to study him really hard. But I know Mayweather really well. I just need Manny to see what I see." Freddie Roach.

It was always so obvious. Bob Arum is a genius promoter though.
