    these guys are powerful enough in vegas to get whatever the hell they need as quickly as possible.

    i think the complications stemming from the stadium are fabricated and intended to avoid the fight on arum's end
    I don't necessarily disagree that he's using the stadium thing as a means to avoid the fight. I'm just saying in that scenario he chose a good excuse because there really wasn't much he could do about it and there still isn't much he can do about it for obvious reasons.

      That's a totally different argument. I completely agree with you that's what he should have done.

      But doesn't change the fact that in the situation that exists and has existed, working on the stadium a month ago wasn't feasible.

        That's a very good question. I "marvel"at their "enthusiasm". I can only suggest that they themselves have must a financial share in one or both fighters, and perhaps the promoters too. But there again, where would those mindless primitives ever have such money.......
        Their morbid fascination for other peoples' cash, has no other rational explanation. But, then again, when did those crazies ever have a single rational thought.

        Their obscene goop always reminds me of futuristic Science Fiction storie I've read. In fact a cross section of the posts on this site, linked together with an ongoing story, would, if the worst obscenities were weeded ( I think "weeded" is the right word) out, could make a genuine bes seller, built around a drug controlled, propaganda filled, lobotomized, sub- human species.........

        Just my opinion.

I just posted the information from an Arum comment, shown on Boxingscene a few weeks ago, which judging by the unceasing babble, seems not to have been seen by any of the mindless nincumpoops who regularly dribble their drek on this site. Maybe they have no reading kills, or info retention. You seem to be wanting to join them, with your gratuitous insults.

          And you, in your less than polite eagerness to score"points' with the "un-intelligensia" of the BoxingScene site, have labelled it "cheerleader", a silly, pointless dullness.....
          yep. wifebeaters and cowards have fanatics, too. that's why pu55y boy floyd (pbf) will never be rehabilitated. the boring pu55y will always act like he owns the sport. he wants everyone to submit to his demands, otherwise the queen will get mad and the fight is off. what a mess this major blunder of humanity has created.

          this is the kind of person these dumb *****s have been defending for years now. easy fight, easy money. pbf will make pacman look like an amateurish in the ring according to dumb *****s. yet they're the first to defend roadblocks. they'll blame everyone but the chicken. pacman doesn't deserve the fight, according to these clowns. he's not undefeated, he's fought shot fighters, and all that crap. you're left wondering why they're not pushing for guys like martinez. why, because these fantasy kids want all the toys. he beats everyone without even fighting them.

          i'll never give in to the dictates of the pu55y coward if i were arum/pac. let him rot and remain the laughing stock of the world. i'll be happy if this fight never happens.

          can't wait to see the chicken retire. can't stomach the thought of rewarding the boring pu55y with $100 million.

              It can be done through negotiation. You work out different scenarios. Again, you have to be interested in making the fight.

                I'm getting tired of Bob and his ****** stadium. He's the ONLY who gives a crap about it. and now he's gonna talk to the builders? SMH. Maybe Bob should be referred toas BOB THE BUILDER.

                    But is selecting a date and venue for a fight against a certain opponent, without speaking with his team, negotiating? When you negotiate a fight, don't you discuss things like weight, drug testing, purse and DATE and VENUE? It's become an ego pissing match. Floyd wants it his way, Bob wants it his way. They will never find a common ground. Its all he said she said bull****. Floyd didn't make it easy to negotiate.
