      Bob Arum is so pissed that Floyd left his pocket...

      His manny pac is done, people know Floyd's not the reason the fight hasn't been made and that people do not think Pac could ever beat Floyd. The marketability is no longer there. Now its time for Bob to move on and find other ways to promote his fighters by using Floyd's name.

        yet floyd's the one who constantly changed his demands and prevented the fight from happening. floyd fans would make good politicians. they can just say what they feel, not what is true.

          Apparently he's friends Les Moonves, the CEO of CBS, which owns Showtime.

          Has Floyd ever done a fight with Showtime?
          That's Arum's whole point. Arum is saying GB is bull****ting Showtime with that promise.

            You talk about what is true. Then why say floyd kept changing his demands? The truth is manny refused 50/50 over ost. Floyd offered compromise cutoff days, manny still refused. Floyd went back to 0 days after that. Again floyd fans love the truth, its just we can't get manny fans to stick to it.

              Pac is the one that changed. He hasn't looked the same since Floyd asked him to take a blood test in 2009 when Floyd offered 50-50. Pac walked away.

              Besides, you have been proven wrong by Bob himself. If Bob wanted the fight he would have made it already.

                pac was the one who caved into floyd's demands. then floyd changed them. if floyd wanted the fight he would have stuck to his word but oh well. and if you remember floyd said all pac had to do was take the test and the fight would happen...woops then he changed his 50/50 stance.

                  Floyd has stuck to his word, Bob Arum is the reason the fight has not been made and Bob has made it clear that Floyd is right.

                  No matter what % cut or demand Floyd had, Bob would not have allowed it. 50-50 or a flat rate. Bob said NO. That is a fact.

                  Like I said years ago and like Bob is saying now, when he is ready he will make the fights he wants. Bob's been doing this for decades. Stop being a fl()mo and giving Floyd all this super human credit as if he could stop Bob Arum from doing what he does best. Lil old Floyd does not have that kind of power.

                      14 days and the fight will happen! oops nevermind
                      0 days and the fight will happen! oops nevermind
                      50-50 and the fight will happen! oops nevermind
                      how is that sticking to his word?

                      arum didn't say no to 50-50 after pac accepted testing. floyd changed his demands again. you are combining 2 things into 1. aka not being honest with yourself.

                      imagine if floyd and pac both agreed to 50-50, testing, and the only thing preventing the fight was the weight penalty. after 3 years floyd finally accepted then pac suddenly said oh wait you only get a 40 million flat fee now. same thing happened but in reverse but because floyd did it he's the man!
