I was watching 24/7 and manny said this election is going to be easy cause he is not running against anybody, so he could actually fight in may!

Bob Arum loves to whine to the public. He cries all the time.

This right here is true. Bob thinks that people really care what he feels like he is the authority of boxing. Arum is nothing but a proven liar and crook

What Floyd should do is call out Manny once again if he wins on Saturday. If that fight doesn't happen in 2013, it'll never happen.

Arum will never let Floyd fight any of his guys

After what happened in 2006, Bob has a vendetta against Floyd...He'll try this keep-away move until Mayweather retires

Especially since he was able to fight De La Hoya that next year which really had him fuming

Very true, but it's also true that Floyd wouldn't fight a Top Rank fighter no matter how easy the fight is. Calderon can be a TR fighter and call out Floyd and he would turn it down.

Floyd wouldn't give a dime to Bob Arum. That is why he told Cotto to f-ck off and become his own boss in 2007 if he wants a fight. Which Cotto did a little late, 5 years later. He said him and Arum don't see eye to eye and can't do business together and Arum doesn't get along with his adviser Al Haymon.

Neither of them want to do business together. Arum doesn't want his fighters losing to Floyd or any outsider for that matter, and he wants 100% of the money from events. Floyd just doesn't want to work with Arum, he doesn't want Arum getting a penny from his fights. Floyd will not forget the smear campaigns Arum ran on him right after he left TR.

True Kev...Floyd was mad about what Arum did after he left...Haymon was partly responsible I think...wasn't he the one that got Floyd out of Top Rank by outbidding Arum's offer? Floyd was able to get more out of the deal by fighting Baldomir because of Haymon, right? That's why that Margarito fight would've never went down within that year cause Floyd's Top Rank affiliation was bought out...

At least that's what I was able to piece together

This **** is funny.

Why does every time someone say something about Floyd or Floyd does something Arum always has to comment on it? Just let it go...

We get it that Arum hates the fact that Floyd left him and became the biggest star and highest paid athlete in the sport. Floyd made it clear he will not break bread with any TR fighters and Arum.
