Comments Thread For: Mayweather: In My Life, I'll Never Do Business With Arum!

[Kuyukut]

See, this site is littered with posts like this, mind numbingly willfully ignorant. I know you don't believe what you're writing, and if you do I'm guessing you ride a yellow school bus, wear a bib for the idiot drool and a football helmet because your ******ation is unpredictable.

Boxing is a business okay, if you remove your emotionalism you might begin to grasp this, or do you need to believe people are bad or scared? Are you that shallow dude that seeing a larger picture is wholly beyond you?

shut up, moron... we're tired of you guys sucking a coward's **** like there's no tomorrow. the last time i heard boxing is a sport, a gentleman's sport where your idol and his idiot fans don't belong. you idiots need to find another sport or sell lemonade or drugs in your hood if you want to dabble in business.

by the way, your idol is a real coward and needs to retire for good.

The game is rigged!!...if Manny was to convince Warden Arum to give him parole so he can make some major bread with Floyd....and the fight did happen and Floyd dominates, how much credit would he get for dominating a cat that people assumed he feared?!?....let me guess....NONE!!!....the game is rigged just like those stadium building plans and drug testing issues...smh

The drug testing was the easiest game to figure out....Arum made Pac say **** that made no sense....he single-handedly promoted this longest online fight in the history of the sport

IMO Pac wasn't juicing....his opponents were made to order!!...but when drug testing came to the table regarding a Floyd fight, Arum was the puppet master who had Pac sounding suspect....Pac wanted the fight and Floyd wanted the purse....they wanted the fight imo but for some obvious reason Arum didn't....so instead he promoted a fight with snake wit, putting Pac's reputation against Floyd's meanwhile cashing checks and profiting off of both....use one to sell the other

Actions interpret thoughts....Arum's actions shows he doesn't think his customers are that bright....Floyd and Pac been fighting most of their lives....that's all they know how to do....Arum got the Masters Degree in Manipulation.....Cotto fought Floyd without Arum, Pac should do the same!!

all of this, is irrelevant to getting the fight done. People don't watch boxing to worry about another mans finances.

If you look at facts and say they're "irrelevant" you aren't the least bit interested in why the fight isn't really happening. And blindly requesting it without looking at the very real reasons why it isn't happening makes no sense to me. We're fans of the sport the last time I checked, we care about all aspects of the fight game, yeah the fighting is singularly important, but the lives of the fighters we're interested in do garner some interest no?

The fight isn't happening for business reasons period, nothing more or less. It isn't as provocative as "Floyd's scared," but facts are always pretty shabby sitting next to hyperbole.

I read your posts and I pictured you sitting on that yellow bus riding to school to learn virtually nothing since you're a ****** but I can see you there anyway. You're drooling and ****ting on yourself.

Boxing is a business, period special person.

When I open up the Sunday paper, can you explain to me why, when I look for the story about the previous nights, fight, its in the "Sports" section?

Hmmmmm, because its a sport/business. Why do you think you can read about in the pages of "Forbes?" http://www.forbes.com/profile/floyd-mayweather/

I think it's you that has the wrong idea. Boxing is the most blue collar sport there is. That's one of the draws, along with it appealing to the base violence in our nature. Now with TV networks having as much day as the governing bodies, it's as much a business as it ever was a sport.

Also, you must see yourself as a champion amongst boxing internet geeks to call those that spend their whole lives doing something you only have the guts to write about (and under pseudonym), "coward". I salute you, undisputed internet tough guy. You've obviously given more to sport of boxing with your unending ignorant postings. Manny Steward just couldn't compete.

If people are so nonchalant about boxers' finances and only care about the fight, then why aren't they on Manny Pacquiao for not accepting the 40 million dollars offered for a fight? The way some talk about that offer, it's like they're personally insulted by that offer and talk about how Pacquiao deserved more (but now don't care about money). Pacquiao turned down the offer to fight for less and the same people- who don't care about boxers' money, remember, are fine with that. So which is it? I guess people only care about the money when it fits their argument.

Because the majority of fans who purchase PPVs, don't care who gets what.

Btw, I don't think they are personally insulted, they just see that the offer which includes no PPV, is insulting, and ****** for a star on equal or higher footing to take.
You're not going to go into making a restaurant with a partner and you both have equal value and just give up 100% of the profits while he pays you a flat fee.

You, myself and everyone else knows it was a phony offer. What fighter, in this day and age, with the stature that Manny has, takes 0% PPV?

Arum was Floyds promoter too. Are you saying he rigged for Floyd as well?

The fight isn't happening because Floyd doesn't want it. Everyone knows that.

Forbes is a magazine.

But tell me why, when I open up Sundays edition of the LA Times, I can't find the results of the fight in the "Business" section?
