floyd fans are still on the "blame arum for the fight not happening".
arum is a big time promter...that's what he do. floyd on the other hand is a fighter. problem is floyd also wants to control the promotions of his fights. of course that doesn't sit well with arum if floyd wants to fight top rank fighters because floyd is taking his profits away. they both mean business and want more money...nothing wrong with that but this "blame arum" excuse is getting old.
if floyd will only let arum promote the fight, arum will make the fight in a heartbeat. he hates it so much when floyd brings in gbp though which is understandable. so the problem really is not just arum but both arum and floyd...and their business conflicts.
the notion that arum doesn't want his fighters or his cashcows to lose to floyd is ******ed. arum is a veteran promoter to know that loses suffered by ppv fighters doesn't really make a big impact to their ppv potential. tyson lost to douglas, dela hoya against trinidad and to a lesser extent cotto against margarito and hatton losing to floyd. they're still ppv stars after the loss.
