    Who started calling Matthysse the new Pacquiao?! Its a bad comparison cuz Mattysse is a precision power puncher.. same goes if you compare him with Julius Jackson or Mike Tyson Also i dont believe they will ever fight cuz Pac gonna retire soon about 2 more fights while staying in Top prank

      Too much risk for him to be sharing the money with his competition.

        Donaire and Rigo are both with Top Rank...

        I don't get the point you are trying to make.

        Mares vs Rigo is not happening because of that feud.

          Uh, Donaire and Rigo are both with Top Rank. So of course they made it. That was an in house fight.

            My point is that Arum cares about bottom lines and that's it..there was no room for negotiation in the one relevant fight GBP and TR has tried to make. Arum has publicly stated he will not make a fight if you come to him with every term pre-set without giving him room to negotiate from his end. He had issues with Dibella and overlooked that because Dibella was willing to meet him half way. Arum doesn't care about risks he's not being punched in the face in the ring.

              Lucas would have to bend over backwards and give Pac the lion's share of the purse.

              It would have be something like 70-30 for it to go down with Top Rank taking most if not all of the advertising rights. Something GBP would never go for.

                Of course he wants to fight Pacquiao cuz hes the biggest payday

                He would make at least double fighting Pacquiao than anyone else

                Its ironic tho how GBP is piggybacking off Pacquiao's name again

                      If Pac get's KO'd again then his bottom line will take a dive. So in order for him to overlook that possibility he will need a large enough incentive.

                      Arum is only feuding with GBP. He's willing to work with Dibella because he doesn't see Dibella as a threat and he doesn't consider him competition. That's the biggest reason other than advertising rights (Lou doesn't care which beer company logo is painted in the ring and on promotional posters).
