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

[junior gong]

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.

Herp de derp.....You do realise that works both ways? No, probably not. Damn floydiots

doesn't matter anymore anyway
sell by date for this fight is 4 yrs past
time for Pac to stand down, and Floyd should fight Lara
hearing these guys drone on about this nonfight is laughable

I wonder who the boss really is... Will Schafer give in to DLH if DLH says make the fight happen or does DLH let Schafer run the show?

well knowing that dlh and Floyd don't like each other I just seen a doc on Floyd and dlh said straight up Floyd wanted the fight and it wasn't his fault it didn't get made. so it all has to do with them working with bob

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.

I disagree to a point, i might be remembering this wrong, it did seem to happen after that contract thing with Manny. Again i could be remembering it wrong but i thought gbp owned a piece of Manny after they came to an agreement so they just went ahead and co-promoted and have Top Rank as lead promoter. Then i remember an issue came up with advertisement money that gbp thought Top Rank were making up numbers cause it was alot less then what they would get when they promoted fights and they were owed a % of it. I don't know what ever came of that issue but its right at that time they stopped working together. Also Arum was putting some kind of expenses on the promotion tab they felt wasn't for promotion i guess. Trust lost and its what we got today.

Schaefer is Floyd and Oscars boss. That much should be obvious by now.

[tyotfo]

WBC should put Manny Paquiou as mandatory for the welterweight belt. The fight can then go to purse bids. If Floyd doesn't want to deal with Bob Arum, fine, but he should be stripped of his belt.

[Gonzalez_Boxing]

all arum has to do is get out the way and let it happen. pacquiao needs to grow a pair and make the demand to arum.

Pardon my ignorance, but I tuned out of the negotiation after the second or third go round. When and why all of a sudden is Arum the hurdle, he never seemed to be a factor during the first rounds of negotiation?

[Mayabang]

who gives a fuck what Schaefer says, Floyd is his own boss, he makes the calls, right? RIGHT???

[Blubba]

first demand extra drug tests.

then leave your promoter.

next.. leave your wife.

....

what will be the next one?

[radiotracer]

Hey why did Oscar never rematch Tito? Yeah, he's so easy to work with. When hes older than dirt and a walking corpse. What a silly point.

Let me know when Pac stops being afraid of needles or whatever excuse he came up with last time.

pac has given in to all those demands with testing, cut off dates and other bullying demands that floyd has. floyd needs to make it happen or he will look like a goad greatest all time ducker. he's his own boss. he doesnt even act like he wants to fight pac. seeing broner crumble against chino makes him nervous about his egg even more.
