Floyd/Arum just don't want the fight to get made.
Collapse

When Floyd and Arum parted ways Arum owed Floyd money, when Arum and Oscar parted ways, Arum owed Oscar money. So neither one of these guys want to Help this guy make money that is actually owed to them. Bradley even said a fight between him and Floyd wont happen while he's still with TR. Now that Floyd and Oscar know more now about the promotional side of things, how much do you think, they know about how bad Arum was screwing them? Do you really think they wanna do business with this guy? Remember it was Arum that stopped the second chance at the fight because he needed to build a stadium, after Pacs most recent fight, didnt Roach say that he hopes ARUM gets this done, didnt Roach say in the past that it was up to Arum, Pac says talk to Arum, Micheal Concz (whatever) said it was Arum holding up the fight, even the karate kid that kicked roach said it was Arum holding up the fight. Arum knows he cant pull any BS with the numbers and Pac would get his rightful share or Bob Arum would be exposed. Potentially the biggest fight in history, do you think Arum would not try to get a bigger share?
bare with me on this....when those financial advisors were hired to go thru Pac's finances they said Pac was taking loans from bob between fights, now if Bob can keep giving Pac loans with ****** pay-day loan rates, then have him fight Floyd...Bob would be entitled to his promotional fee, and a nice chunk of Pacs Pay day all at the same time. Bob really is gonna cash out.Last edited by MRCHOKEaMF; 12-03-2013, 06:14 PM.Comment

I agree there is some truth about Mayweather and Arum, but the one boxer under the TR banner that has the clout to tell Arum to make the fight happen is Manny Pacquiao. I believe he has some say in all of this but for some reason he's leaving it all on Arum. I have this strange feeling that Arum will somehow negotiate a fight with Bradley and Mayweather long before he'll do one for Pacquiao/Mayweather.Comment

Bradley: "I can talk to Arum all I want, but Floyd's gonna wanna have to fight me."I agree there is some truth about Mayweather and Arum, but the one boxer under the TR banner that has the clout to tell Arum to make the fight happen is Manny Pacquiao.

Now imagine with Pacman.Comment

You're right, but on Mayweather and Pacquiao's part, Arum is simply not an excuse. Mayweather could be a bigger man and make the fight anyway, and Pacquiao could exercise his power and make Arum stop being a resentful ass.Comment

It's nothing to do with Arum, that's just another Flomo excuse. Any promoter would love to be involved in the biggest fight in history of boxing, one fighter doesn't want to be because he fears it.
that's calling a spade a spade.Comment

i don't think arum is still a roadblock for that fight to happen imo. if he gets his fair share to promote the fight he'll go for it. he needs to be involved with everything promotion wise.
floyd's team and gbp can't leave him out with some decision making like when they had the date and mgm reserved even before trying to negotiate...that shhit won't work with arum. the old fart knows that promoters get money from these fight venues for fights of this magnitude. that's when he brought up the we need to build a stadium or something bull****. it's just an excuse because floyd and gbp tried to cut him off with some money-making transactions.Comment

If Bradley really think Mayweather doesn't want to fight him why is he lobbying for a fight? I thought TR was all about cutting out the smack talking. If it was simply a case of Mayweather not wanting to fight we wouldn't hear about a potential fight with Mayweather every time there is a TR eventComment

Bingo..........i don't think arum is still a roadblock for that fight to happen imo. if he gets his fair share to promote the fight he'll go for it. he needs to be involved with everything promotion wise.

That's not the issue. The issue is, YOU said Manny should just go to Bob and everything would be peachy.If Bradley really think Mayweather doesn't want to fight him why is he lobbying for a fight? I thought TR was all about cutting out the smack talking. If it was simply a case of Mayweather not wanting to fight we wouldn't hear about a potential fight with Mayweather every time there is a TR event
I gave you Bradley's quote, because, Manny can say whatever he wants to Bob, but if Floyd doesn't want the fight, what good does that do?Comment
