Comments Thread For: Schaefer Lashes Out At Arum Over Mayweather-Pacquiao

[Mindrapist]

As I told them man just above you I got the article writer on twitter right now and he's come and seen the discussion..i'm hoping he hops on and sons you a bit too...

Oh, please, young man. I know Eric (who's a good dude, by the way.) I work in the industry and I'm ringside at the fights just like he is. He has no more access to numbers or sources than I do, I assure you.

This S### is about Arum and Schaefer and WE the fans are being robbed by their bickering like school children over the swing.

Yet his job is to research the topics he writes for right? So let's see which amongst all of us is more likely to have actually found the right numbers? The ones who read about it or the ones who earn their living from it?

[lets rumble]

arum wont step aside , who is he kidding

We'll soon find out, as I stated the FCC is one of many places to get this information from...you stick to that FCC though on a hope and prayer..since i'm sure you'll use that as your excuse to claim a win..but since I can take the time to reach out to the writer i'm sure you should have no problem picking up the phone and calling the FCC yourself...you know since that way we can share the work.

You can stop talking now. You went to your source - and when he doesn't tell you that he went to the FCC ( ) then you'll know who the obvious source is: the one who told the media those #'s...Mr. Arum.

I'll keep this page on refresh.

So is mine. Like I told you, while he's an incredibly gifted writer with an awesome personality, he has no more access to stuff than any other reporter. In fact, if you wanna go all Twitter to verify stuff I'm saying, you can talk to people from HBO, Kevin Iole from Yahoo, Max Kellerman, Bob freakin' Arum himself who can confirm that. But you'd have to inbox me.

No one goes on the record with PPV buys. It all comes from "industry insiders," who can be anyone from those really in the know -- distributors etc. -- or someone from the promotional companies who don't really get to see those numbers in the first place.

You can go right on twitter and get the response from him when he posts it...yeah because the fcc and arum are the only people on earth who know ppv sales numbers right...some logic.

I respect that but we have to circumvent back to the start of this conversation so you can understand the point...first it was it was never written, then when it was proven it's inaccurate, yet the people who are claiming these numbers are in accurate haven't as much as provided proof of why they are wrong, where they are getting their facts from, nor for that matter that he's capable of being right. That's how all of this got started, now it's morphed into an fcc fight because the idiot arguing doesn't have a single leg to stand on besides the mentioning of FCC which mind you he is absolutely too lazy to even pick up a phone and call..which shouldn't come as a shock considering he was too lazy to google the grantland article in the first place.

LMAO!!! I saw your conversation with Eric and he DUMPED all over your argument without you even knowing it.

He said he stays off here because "someone" -- ie. YOU -- said he was EIC for Ring. LOL that's hilarious.

I really don't mean to be rude or argue with you but let's just leave the topic alone.
