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

[Dirk Diggler UK]

He claims Arum owes him millions, basically in his two PPV fights with Gatti and the other one being Judah.

Yet he was willing to do business with Arum when he supposedly offered 50/50 ("If you da best, take da test")?

And he was willing again when he offered a flat $40m to Pacquiao?

Did he just forget about the millions that Arum supposedly owes him those two times?

I think he was willing to do the 50/50 back then with Pacquiao and work with Arum because at the time, Goldenboy and TopRank would still work together through purse bids.

The 40 million he offered Pacquiao in the second negotiation was actually supposed to help Pacquiao. When Floyd says he would wire the 20 million within 2 days to Pacquiao, it was a way for Arum to not get the cut. Once he wires 20 million into Pacquiao's bank, its Pac's money. Rather then, having Arum give Pacquiao a check, takes a huge cut, then giving him the leftovers. It was Floyd's way of trying to not get Arum involved in this fight. All Floyd is trying to do is to get Arum out of the way. He doesn't want him involved or getting payed in any way for any of his fights.

That's some real creative bull****

[WESS]

Top 4 welters in Jan 2009

Margaritto
Cotto
Mosely
Clottey

Pacquiao staring from late 2009 beat them all in a 18 month period.

Deal with it.

Last time time Floyd step up was against Corrales, and that was weight drained mentally f****** Corrales of to the big house.


Ottke = Mayweather

Both unbeaten champs

Mayweather beat two of out of four (ironically the two who were not TR).

Mosley ****ed margarito's life and put him into retirement. Floyd beat Cotto without a catchweight. Whats your point ****tard?

I killed your ****ty agenda.... lol ****ing euro garbage. lol Like Khan.

Funny stuff ....

The more realistic logic is that Floyd knew that if Arum/Manny heard Floyd say "I WANT ALL PPV MONEY" for what was supposed to be the biggest fight monetarily in like forever, they would be saying "Floyd either went crazy or don't want the fight because he knows that we will not be allowing him to take ALL the PPV MONEY on this huge fight"

We all know that Floyd beat Cotto like 4-5 years too late. So, what was your point?

Mosley beat a Margarito that just got caught cheating and knew he was in some crazy deep sh$t load of trouble. Then was vacationing for 16 months until he became OLD, INACTIVE and couldn't win a fight if his life depended on it! So again, what was your point?

Frazier beat Ali. Norton beat Ali. Frazier and Norton always gave Ali a tough match. Foreman destroys Frazier and Norton. So, what was your point? Foreman vs Ali shouldn't have happened?

It was a joke offer. Now you have all manner of Mayweather fanboys using hindsight to suggest Pacquaio should have taken it.

[Mike D]

The whole notion that Arum is the sole reason is idiotic. Even if it's true.

You have one career, one legacy. One life. And out of your hate for ONE man, you're willing to bypass what (straight from Floyd's mouth) is an "easy" fight against a guy not on your level, you'll make BY FAR the biggest payday of your life, get the bigger cut, and will put the signature exclamation point on your hall of fame career??? And you're still willing to bypass that for a single dude?

I call bull****. I don't care how bad I hated a guy, if I knew I could take my arch-nemesis' soul and get my biggest payday of my life -- I'm making it happen. No matter what.
