      Mayweather claims that Arum shortchanged him on matches against Arturo Gatti in 2005 and Zab Judah in 2006. In the lawsuit, Mayweather said he was due 85% of Top Rank's revenue from the Gatti fight and 80% from the Judah fight. He claims Arum has refused to turn over the records for accounting. Mayweather has asked for the statutory minimum of $10,000 on each of the five counts, but would be in line for millions in punitive damages on a breach of contract claim.
      This could get ugly before it's over, making it the heavyweight slugfest of the year.
      In a strange twist, Arum admits that he owes Mayweather money and said he has told Mayweather's reps why he isn't giving it to him.
      "There's no question we owe him some money," Arum said. "There's no dispute there. But he owes us a lot of money, and the people he's involved with owe us even more. After 98% of the money we owed him was paid, we stopped paying him for a reason.
      "We're owed ... in the millions. We welcome this lawsuit. We wanted it to be filed. We have counterclaims and cross claims against certain other individuals involved with Mayweather. This is just the opening salvo in a major battle."

      That is why Floyd and Arum do not do business together.

      Other people do not like him because he has been caught bribing and admitted to bribing on more than one occasion. That should be an offence worthy of a lifetime ban right there.
      Was one of those people Arum is talking about James Prince? I remember reading Arum had to pay Prince a lot of money Floyd owed him (after the infamous pistol whip incident ).

        That case is still ongoing I believe so who knows~ I would say it probably gets very murky who exactly owes who what.

          I don't have beef with TR but they don't get none of my money. At least they did bring boxing back to Network TV after the Pacquiao/Mosley deal....wait

          You mean to tell me Leo Santa Cruz isn't with TR?

              He hasn't had that many absolutely terrible fights though IMO, but there is the certain lack of drama by the end of a lot of them.

                  I think the opponents that gave up trying to win and stopped fighting owe you.
