Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: Only Floyd Mayweather is Preventing Our Fight!

[richardt]

According to Ariza, Bob Arum is solely responsible for the failed negotiations between Mayweather and Pacquiao:

And you have also missed the point. If Elerbe represented Pac, he would be blaming Mayweather. If Arum represented Mayweather, he would be blaming Pac. If Ariza became disgruntled, he would change his mind. EVERY perception of these negotiations is based on BIAS! Not Facts, not collective reality, BIAS!

Don't you ever realize how much hate you have of Pac? Is it really worth the effort to criticize Pac with this specific comment? HOW is it impossible to believe? I mean seriously, this is truly reaching it Dunn. I don't get why that comment of Pac watching those boxing greats growing up in the tube is so hard to believe. It's really mindboggling how that disturbs you so much.

Yoour assumption that it bother me is incorrect. Lying about watching people grow up to sell an image is what bothers me. ITS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME because I figured live fights, not tapes. ITS impossible FOR ME TO BELIEVE manny had access to live fights that many Americans didn't have live access to.

That said I realized I was wrong and have said so. What more do you want?

EXAMPLE: Take 5 Mayweather fans and if Pac invited them to stay with him for a week, a number would change their feelings about Pac. Take 5 Pac fans and have them spend a week with Mayweather and they would change their feelings about Mayweather. If Mayweather and Pac treated the opposite fans with gifts, limozine rides, visits with their families, minds would change.

The thing that leads me to saying that Floyd is just coming up with excuses and roadblock after roadblock is this:

Just earlier this year when Floyd went on his twitter campaign calling out Pac, he also gave Fhype exclusive access with a series of videos. In those videos when questioned about a potential fight with Pac, Floyd's response was that the ONLY thing holding up this fight from happening was Pac's reluctance to submit to OSDT with no cutoff. Never once did he mention anything regarding money or purse split. The last I heard, Floyd had agreed to a 50/50 split. This came out of Ellerbe's own mouth in an interview he gave a while back. Now during the whole back and forth talking between both camps, they both stated that testing is no longer an issue. Pac and Arum have both said that Pac is willing to submit to OSDT with no cutoff's, and Ellerbe also acknowledged this aswell. My question is, why only now is Floyd coming up with this ridiculous offer of a $40mil flat fee for Pac while he keeps the rest of the revenue? This is a case of offering Pac "an offer that he COULD refuse!".

Now I have no doubt in my mind that if given a fair offer, Pac would get in the ring in a heartbeat. He's faced much more dangerous opponents than Floyd and I dont see why he would fear Floyd. Can he lose? Sure, but so can Floyd. On the other hand, its been nothing but excuses from both Arum and Floyd. Who wants to bet that Floyd's next excuse will be that Pac has to come up to 154 if he wants a fight?

And you would hear his thoughts and feelings and start seeing that there are two sides to the situation and you would learn this after a week and if you deny this, you are either being disingenious, lying, or don't understanding social influences.

Lol, doesn't he still have a lawsuit against floyd?

50/50 and drop the lawsuit, everything will be solved on that night, the ped issues(usada),money, and the #1 p4p fighter.

But i really believe it's Bob Arum, Pacquiao/Mayweather will put it all on the line, but Bob Arum will not take the possibility of loosing his cash cow to GBP.
