Comments Thread For: Arum Aims To Finalize Pacquiao-Bradley, Talks Mayweather

[Ringlife]

So he is still trying to do this outdoor thing again in November now I don't think people want to sit out in the cold and watch a boxing fight. He's not even giving he's ex fighter a chance to ruin his plans he doesn't think Cotto can beat Mayweather. I guess it really didn't take him that long for him to open his mouth again.I am glad Cotto opened his eyes and left the old fart.

Mayweathers game is and has always been:

Cherry pick the beat up washed out fighters and claim the nice hill !

Everytime they get close to making the fight Jr throws out other demands !

Greed is Moneys new name.

He wants to generously give Pac 40 mil and he will clean up the rest haha

I on the other hand like Pacs approach,,,lets see it was 45 to 55 and the winner take the extra ten percent.

Something that would make Jr.s legs turn to jelly would be a mandated :

WINNER TAKE ALL FIGHT ! I can see it now , the fight slipping out of jRS hands and his a$$ is handed to him and all he see's is dollar signs flying away , aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!

Now he wants yer money fighting a man who has quit twice.

If 154 is nothing , why didn't he pursue Martinez ? Even now step aside money would have been no problem. Martinez has been pursuing him !

What, and Pac didn't cherry pick Cotto, Margo, Shane and Oscar? You have to be kidding. No one had been more calculating than Pac when it comes to picking opponents.

I believe Pac has no voice in deciding his opponents, its always Arum and Roach who pick the opponents.

Money money money...split it all down the middle and get it on. Its funny how important the fans are until money comes into play. Plus if either one of them loses their fight...the big payday is over. This fight as of now is losing its buzz. And has with some already.

When it comes to Pacquiao, Mayweather doesn't care about the money. He has said this in several of his interviews. He's worried about his health when it comes to Pacquiao. Come on, man this is a dude that wanted Shane Mosley to cheat for the Pacquiao fight.


"Not saying that I wish nothing bad on Shane because I want Shane to win. Everybody says, "Well, if Shane wins, what about your money?" I don't worry about that. I got things outside the ring that I'm generating major income from...If I was Shane, you know what I would do? I would go back to the old Shane, so he can be on an even playing field. Just say **** it."

Really? So Bob Arum and duboef are looking to finalize Bradley, but it was Konz that was talking to Maywather. Anybody?

[D4thincarnation]

Its obvious to anybody who has looked at this, that the fight isn't happening because of Mayweather. For two years one thing was in stone -- that was a 50-50 deal and now Mayweather has departed from it and thats ridiculous.

Well said Bob.

There is no excuse for Floyd's shift in stance.

Floyd doesn't want this fight to happen and never has.

Do you really want to go there ?

All of those men are much bigger men than Pac, remember Pac came up from 106 fighting the elites all the way to the top.

Who is left at the top?

What elite ww has jr fought ? not just in the past 7 years but in his life, name one.

This guy Pac fights everyone and would fight JR but he goes running his mouth and making demands against a fraudulent one dimensional synthetic fake ???? Bull#### !

Come on, guy, those fighters were not elite when Pac fought them. Remember, Floyd has already beat Shane, Oscar, Hatton and JMM when pac turned around and fought them. The other guys were clearly shot.

In any event, Bradley KO's Pac in 7. Pac will come in and get hit, and then, when he starts backing up, he gets KO'd. Check with me June 10, 2012 and we will see then.

Pacquiao had his first fight at welter in 2008 after jumping 3 weights in a year.

At the end of the year the top 5 welter in the division were:

Margarito
Cotto
Mosley
Clottey

And Pacquiao and no.5

Over the next 24 months Pacquiao took on the 4 fighter that were above him beating them all convincingly and at the most only dropping a round in the process.

Good for Bradley I'm happy he finally gets his dream fight he better deliver though look what happened to Clottey post Pacquiao
