Comments Thread For: Arum Confirms: Mayweather, Pacquiao Had Phone Convo

[americanbot]

Floyd said so few words?

I believe he was star struck.

you would be foolish to believe anything that arum tells you at this point..............

[MrRolltide91]

so the stadium won't be on the strip???

[vacon04]

"They got to get off this May 5th date"? May 5th is traditionally one of the best days for boxing in the year, but Arum wants to fight on a ****ty "temporary outdoor venue" on "late May" ... Las Vegas has a stadium with 38,000 capacity, and guess what, it's already built!

It's interesting how nobody asks Arum about construction delays. If there is one delay it will kill the fight. Too much risk involved. Why don't any of these "professional journalists" ask him about it?

[Boxing's Truth]

As soon as I read the first sentence in this article "In a telephone convo with boxingscene.com", I stopped reading.

Boxingscene is the National Inquire of boxing news. The comment threads carry more weight than the articles.

Kobi called Jordan.

I love how none of these sources are willing to mention that Mayweather was the one to call Manny.

If it was the other way around the reports would be on that

Who cares? They talked, nobody cares who called who, all that matters is that they talked and are trying to get the fight done. SMH

[MrRolltide91]

manny said he would fight floyd anytime


arum still talking about late may

[chav]

Arum isn't done with his stadium ideas at all, he's starting to get descriptive when talking about them too because he's had a meeting with them now lol
This old man isn't going to drop this idea of the stadium at all, he probably has the guys from the hotels who want the stadium built next to their hotels paying him a wedge on the side the dirty rat


Come on Manny, speak up, say you want May 5th and the MGM is fine too and we will have a real fight in every sense. The games will be over and the hype will be on full tilt

Well, they mentioned that Michael Konze (did i spell that right?) said that "Floyd called." But i know what you mean. Mayweather's always the bad guy but he's really the only one keeping this fight a possibility. He doesn't get his credit.
