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

[SlyRaccoon]

That's nonsense because Floyd apparently didn't want to work with Arum anyway!

He signed the contract so whether he wanted to work with him or not, he submitted his signature. Arum backed out of it because Pacquiao scared of needles supposedly.. Pacquiao didn't signed, Bob decided him to fight clottey in March, Mayweather decided to fight Mosley in May.

Yeah, that's your take on my posting and I don't give two ****s, I wonder how much drivel you've mustered in 27,000+ posts? But to your question, I care about Pacquiao as a human being and because I love the sport of boxing. I'm sick of seeing fighters that literally give their all in blood, sweat and tears end up with nothing. Many times their injuries follow them for the rest of their days. Don't get me wrong, this is a sport they have chosen, but due to its brutal nature, potential for head trauma I think someone should be working with fighters closely to insure their best interests are being considered. It should be a no brainer, but if it were so many fighters wouldn't end up broke.

Manny shouldn't have to be going through this right now, not because of a scumbag promoter and a glut of an entourage. I just hate to see that happen to fighters.....

Good post. Too many fans just care about the fight and don't give a damn about the fighter when they're mush brained and broke later. Fighters deserve more than that.

Applying something floyd said a week ago to justify manny refusing the fight 4 years ago in 2009-ok, thats valid.

So Floyd hates Arum now but not 4 years ago? That's valid.

Pacquiao fans is like a person getting their aids test back saying positive and believing they are not infected because the paper is lying and they feel healthy.

All up in their emotions and feelings but can't face facts that's in their face.

Yeah, floyd has horrible trouble with lefties. They win a few rounds and still lose.

Those southpaws had other issues that became their downfall ..... BUT it showed that if you have a decent looking left hand, that shoulder roll becomes less effective.

You don't have to be a southpaw. Look at Maidana being able to nullify that shoulder roll with his left hand. He was effective with BOTH hands.

Or maybe the last 4 years worth of media quote **** measuring instead of actually sitting down and negotiating has something to do with it.

Things happen over time. You still love your ex girl/boyfriend? of course not. Geez Dirk.

IN other words-i'm manny fan so its not ok to talk about the things he did 4 years ago but we can tal about what floyd did then.

So losing 8-4 is better than 10-2. Ok, I get that. Zab did KD floyd as well. But does that really indicate "problems"?

For example, manny has problems with boxers that move. He's lost to them and when he wins, uually doesn't get the KO. JMM, Morales 1, Mosley, Tim are examples of this.

I think when posting a fighter "struggles" or "has problems" with a certain style/skillset the examples should support that. I don't know if they do in floyd's case.

He's not willing to work with him now. The same way Manny wasn't willing to have non-commission tests four years ago.

So when Mayweather signed the contract in 2009, why did Pacquiao's team duck and gave the reason that Pacquiao is scared of needles? This is day 1
