    Why does Pacman get criticized for being loyal to Arum but...

    It's okay for Floyd Mayweather to be loyal to that shady character Al Haymon?


    The truth is Pacman never said in order for me to make this fight with Floyd he has to leave Al Haymon, the only one here is making up an unreal demand is Floyd, why should Pac have to leave his promoter to make the fight?

    I never heard Floyd demand other fighters to leave their promoter, imagine of the shoe was on the other foot and Pacman said I will not do business with Floyd unless he leaves Haymon and golden boy and signs with Top Rank what type of responses would people have?

    Didn't Floyd say recently that Al Haymon landed him every fight he ever wanted?

    Guess he didn't want the Pacquiao fight.

      yup, and I think according the ross greenburg before he left HBO that Al Haymon and bob Arum were actually trying to negotiate the second time around and Floyd decided to go on vacation.

        Because Haymoun is not a promoter.

            Arum's just as much scum as the other guy. He does it with a bit more class though. Watch the tape how Arum congratulates Bradley after that fiasco...then quickly turns on Bradley after he gauges fan reaction. This China venture might make Pacquiao incredibly rich though. An Arum? Exponentially rich.

              Yeah, I remember that one. Floyd felt at that time that Haymon and GBP were all conspiring to feed him to the sharks. Floyd then befriended Don King obviously trying to separate himself from Haymon/GBP for making the Pacquiao fight. 50 cent also tried and Floyd didn't like it. Floyd is scared of Pacquiao. That's the bottom line.

                  Al Haymon is basically Floyd's boss. 50 cent said that he gives Floyd an allowance

                  Bob Arum is a promoter which works for the fighter. Pacquiao is Bob Arum's boss.

                    same ole bs dissing al haymon just because floyd is aligned with him but protecting a man who famously said ''i was lying then but i'm telling the truth now'' if that isn't the most slimest thing i've heard i don't know what is.

                    what's funny is bob arum refused to make the margarito, delahoya and cotto fight when floyd asked for it but floyd is the one who ducked them.
