New Stuff From Bob Arum Regarding Mayweather v Pacquaio

[Bermuda]

sounds good...50-50 split seems fair, mgm grand is a good venue, and late may shouldn't be a problem. so, c'mon lets make this fight happen!!!

He needs it for a JMM fight on Cinco De Mayo.....neither Floyd nor Pac are Hispanic, a Mexican on Mexican Independence Day is gonna bring in big bucks.

Yup exactly, that's why a date for a sept 16th type date would be ideal for all the mexicans to celebrate their independence.

yea this basically nulls all the excuses Bob has made.

Pac couldn't fight on may fifth because of:

1- The cut needing 5 months to heal.
2- Building a stadium.

1- was cleared up by pac stating the cut is not an issue (duh).
2- is now cleared as it seems Arum is fine with it being at MGM, just not on may fifth (for whatever reason).


Cop-out. Bull****.

Pretty much right there!!!!!So if its indeed true that Arum is ok with MGM, but in late May then this a certified duck by Arum and the rest of the Packlas!!!!

yea i just re read. no stadium but still late may? but why tho? the cut?

I don't think Arum realises that saying that the MGM is fine results in having May 5th absolutely open for him

I can't believe he actually tried to use the cut and the stadium as an excuse.

It really is an insult to anyone's intelligence.

Why fight in late May when Mayweather has a May 5th reserved for MGM Grand?

Just fight May 5th.

its a misconception that only Mexican fighter could sell Cinco De Mayo both Manny and Floyd are well known and they could do a Mexican heavy undercard maybe both Chavez Jr and Alverez vs some has beens or throw Morales on the card

I don't even know if this **** is real homie. Is it?

Oh it's real alright,
