Comments Thread For: Schaefer: Mayweather-Pacquiao Not Possible With Arum

[radioraheem]

Its obvious Floyd put in his contract or told Richard NO PACQUIAO fight or else I will not fight for you again.

This is the only thing I can think of. Oscar has no clue about it because he is just the puppet and name, Oscar still thinks the fight can be made, but he has no idea about the type of contract or discussions Floyd has with Richard.

Floyd doesn't want to fight Pacquiao, and Arum excuse is lame.

How childish is this that you won't work with someone when everyone in boxing promoter wise are pretty much snakes?

To Floyd, Arum is the more poisonous snake. The eviler devil. And his actions from the beginning speaks for itself with him leaving Top Rank in disgust.

It's clear that people are not reading the article correctly.

Schaefer is saying that Pac is a potential opponent for Floyd but not through Arum. He never suggested that Pac needs to go through TMT either.

I really dislike Schaefer , was so happy watching him , Hopkins and Sam Watson staring ring side in agony at they're potential cash cow getting dismantled . Priceless ! Props to Oscar for trying , he's always seemed like a willing participant . I hope his rehab is going well and wish him the best.

Not true, Floyd is just using that as an excuse, why would he care who about pacmans end? he doesn't have to worry about that.

Its all an excuse, and if Floyd hated Arum so much why does he always hug the guy when he sees him and even thanks him at award shows? its all a front he doesn't want the fight pac is style stylistically a problem for him and not slow enough yet

Bob arum!!

Mayweather was going to jail in april for 90 days

Bob Arum- Pacquaio will be ready to fight in May!!

Mayweather's lawyers get a justice of the peace to postponed jail time till june so mayweather can fight!!

Bob arum- Pacquaio will not be ready until june now!!!



how can anyone say this is not arums fault??

Why do people continue to act like Arum has never been the problem? GoldenBoy and TopRank haven't had their fighters fight each other in YEARS. Not surprising to read Scheafer's comments. Hopefully, Manny finally decides to leave TopRank next year after his contract expires, like many others have done in order to make fights.

pretty much anything to make Floyd look bad, they act like mares donaire and tons of other fights didn't get made smh

ARUM and KING old times friends? NO,but they gave us big fights;SCHAEFER is a disgrace and JUNIOR make people believe that he doesn't fight MANNY because ARUM,NOTHING MORE FALSE,he doesn't want ARUM's fighters like PACQUIAO,BRADLEY,PROVODNIKOV in his record because he will lose. HISTORY will never consider him a very all time great because he avoided too many fighters,nobody from early '50s avoided more opponents than FLOYD JR.!!! GOOD EXCUSE ARUM IS!!!

Why is it Arum the problem? Did you know Don King and Arum hated each others guts? but they still did business, the excuse of not wanting to do business with Arum is lame as hell. Is Floyd a teenage highschool girl? thats something catty females do in highschool.

This whole cold ward started with Golden boy it got squashed and than golden boy started it up agian when Floyd came out of retirement.

Rcihard shaeffer is a two face.

First Oscar and Richard stole Pacman from under a contract with Arum, they had settled out of court and the reason they settled is because Floyd retired and Pacman was the star in boxing who had the biggest upside. without Floyd goldenboy had nobody so they ****** it up and kissed arums ass.

They settled the contract and guess what? Arum put Pacman in with mainly GOLDEN BOY fighters! so your in house excuses are lame.

Pac fought Barrera, JMM, Oscar and Hatton all goldenboy fighters, than after the Hatton fight Floyd came back and Richard basically said now I dont have to put up with Arum I can act like a douche again! because we got a star again.

Thats basically how it happened. Arum is tired of the bull****, he was screwed once and wont be screwed twice.

Am I saying Arum is a saint? hell no, the guy is robbing pacman, but what promoter is a saint?

just breaking it down unbiasedly. It just seem all Floyd fan boys take whatever floyd say and treat it as gospel.
