Comments Thread For: Arum Eyes Mayweather-Pacquiao For April 2013 Date

[Lorily]

Don't forget..... There's also that 'little' matter of a stadium, in which it apparently takes ATLEAST 6 months longer then any proposed fight date to make.

Don't hold your breath folks.

But then again.... apparently Rome CAN be built in a day - IF Bob Arum so chooses.

You can never convince guys like Hagler, Foreman, Holmes, Corley, Holyfield, Lewis, Wilbon, Costas, etc. that Arum is to blame. These are unbiased American people.

Even the Mayweather seniors never blame Arum. They know Floyd held up the fight and still holding up the fight.

Wilbon and Costsas also thought Jose Canseco was lying about steroid use in MLB. So its not the truth if 8 people say it isn't. Thats funny.

about 22% of **********s don't believe President ***** was born in the US even after seeing his brith certificate.

If people don't want to believe the truth. that doesn't make it false. It makes them idiots.

How did Floyd hold it up in 2010-2011 when Manny never agreed to do random blood and urine testing those 2 years??? In 2012, you could argue with Floyd saying no 50-50 that he's holding it up, but at the same time you could also argue Manny said he'd take a lesser share to get the fight done and that going by the revenue generated from both that he doesn't deserve 50-50.

Or you could also say Arum's comments on stadiums and Manny's cut held up the fight too.....

Hopefully 50 and Arum can get it done, there's something to the TMT (no Golden Boy) equation I think.

Mosley and Marquez left GBP just to get the Pacquiao fight. Similarly, Bradley joined Top Rank to get awarded the Pacquiao fight. Marquez and Bradley want another shot at Pac and chances are they'll get it eventually. These guys got balls.

Here's Floyd da best who can pretty much do anything he wants in the sport and these clowns of his are telling us that he is helpless in securing the Pac fight. And they want us to believe so. (That's why I'm giving a small sample of people, ie, Foreman, Holmes, Costas, Hagler, RJJ, etc., who would never be dumb enough to believe it's not Floyd who held up the fight. Bottom line is, Floyd could have fought Pac years ago IF HE REALLY WANTED IT.)

It certainly looks FEAR is playing in the background for Floyd. FEAR OF LOSING.

so guys who weren't making as much as manny showed balls by signing with TR to get a manny fight. of course they did it for the challenge, not the money. hmmm?

wouldn't that mean Manny would have to show balls and sign with GBP or TMT to get the floyd fight, since he makes less than floyd? or shouldn't he have taken either offer since its for the challenge and not the money? or does manny not REALLY WANT IT?

or is it another double standard?

Well this post could ruin someones day.

Some people are so blinded by hate that they don't even see the truth right in front of them.

Do you really believe Floyd wanted the fight or he was just pretending he wanted it?

Do you really believe Manny was afraid of needles, didn't want to take random blood and urine testing in 2010-2011, or just didn't want it???

Do you really believe Bob Arum needed to build a stadium, that Manny's cuts needed extra time, and that he didn't know who to contact on Floyd's side for the fight, or that he just didn't want to make it???

Hopefully they can get it done for Spring 2013.

[maguirre]

Almost 90% of the boxing community believes Floyd would beat Pac. Even a large percentage of the Pac fans thinks Pac is no match for Floyd. Man, if that is not motivation enough to make the fight happen I don't know what is.

Yes I do, thats why he made the offer in Dec 09.

You forgot to answer the questions. wouldn't that mean Manny would have to show balls and sign with GBP or TMT to get the floyd fight, since he makes less than floyd? or shouldn't he have taken either offer since its for the challenge and not the money? or does manny not REALLY WANT IT?
