    Why doesn't Floyd do business with Bob Arum

    I don't get it, if he fights pacquiao he will earn over 100 million and if he is all about the money then why not. I'm not trying to hate on Floyd, he's my favorite boxer but it still doesn't make any sense with all the money involve.

    Pacquiao presents a big risk, although Floyd has a good shot to beat him, Pac's not quite ripe for the picking.

          He can make $100 mil with a couple less risky fights.

          No need to risk the 0.

                Its all a front to duck Pacquiao

                Not only did Arum make him a star but he literally saved his life from J Prince

                He took a picture with Arum at Cowboy stadium during the superbowl and when he was inducted to the Vegas hall of fame, he thanked Bob Arum specifically

                  Mayweather was prepared to do that, 50/50 it was his very first offer and 2nd both turned down over testing that Pacquiao now requests himself.

                    And you never will understand. Everyone on this board does things on a daily basis that they don't want to do(In Floyds case-dealing with Arum). If you have a job, I'm sure there Is someone that you dislike or don't get along with. Does that mean that you quit your job? What If your position pays $15/hr but another position opens up that pays $20/hr but Is a harder job? Would most people pick the easier job that pays 15/hr or the more difficult job that pays 20/hr? I think most logical people choose more money for the more difficult job. In Floyds case he would rather take less money for an easier job(Khan-40 million) rather then more money for the harder job(Pacquiao-80 million).
