Comments Thread For: Mayweather To Arum: Why Do Business With a Coward?

[g24fella]

Making money

Doing business with a coward will make money because everyone wants to see the coward fight Pacquiao. Margarito is old news, lets talk about who Floyd is ducking today. He is ducking Manny Pacquiao to protect his zero in the loss column. People need to stop paying for PPV matches with weak opponents and then Floyd will choose some better competition. He only fought Canelo because the Guerrero numbers were horrible. The Canelo win was a good win, but he took the fight because he could take Canelo. He does not want to risk losing against Manny. He has more than enough skill to win and most likely will, but he still won't sign the contract. He continues to talk badly about Manny and won't fight. This is a huge money fight against a supposedly "weak" opponent. Why won't Floyd take it? He is "Money Mayweather" right. First the drug tests, then the money, and now Bob Arum. Manny was with Bob Arum ever since Floyd was making problems about the money and testing. Now that Manny agreed to take less money and take the tests, now Floyd won't do business with Bob. People need to stop focusing on the undefeated record and look at what is really happening. He is just looking to stay undefeated by choosing the right fights. Ali, Leonard, Hagler, Duran, Ray Robinson, Frazier, the list goes on and on....would never duck and dodge. Manny was knocked out because he continues to step up to the plate and take tough fights, unlike Floyd

Dude I'm not trying to flatter myself, give me a mother****ing break okay? I'm rendering an opinion based on facts but unfortunately the figure around which those facts are based is very controversial. So my casual opinion comes off as biased because with Mayweather, there can be no middle ground, especially at NSB.



Not surprisingly, me too.



It isn't about "blame" dude, this isn't a bad marriage or a court of law. If you follow the breadcrumbs like Hansel and Gretel they eventually lead to the candy house of a hearty **** named Bob Arum. If I've said it once I'll say it again, Arum is the P.T. Barnum of boxing, he specializes in sideshows, freaks and slight of hand. Believe a goddamn word he says at your own risk.





What ever happened to making sense, and that sense of shame that came with a lack of comprehension?

Nsb wouldn't allow me to give you anymore green k. Smashing good job smashing good job. You slipped every punch they threw and ansewered with multiple combos. Keep hurting em with the truth brother.

Are you serious? Do you really think canelo wasn't real competition? And as far as tough fights go if yo think fighting little rios was a tough fight you are a fan of pac and not a fan of boxing. I keep saying if pac is so tough, why does he ONLY fight top rank fighters and no one else? And if floyd only fought canelo because he could take him how could he be afraid of pacs power since pac hasnt hurt anyone in 2 years? You list fighters that you say would never duck or dodge. How many times did ray Leonard fight Aaron pryor? How many times did pac fight yuri forman? Pac flat out refused to fight forman. Roach and pac flat out ducked shane mosley. Twice he went to the wild card gym begging for a pac fight. Your too good he was told. He only got the fight after floyd embarrassed him and he agreed to sign with top rank and agreed to bob WWE Arums terms for the fight. How many times did pac fight the baby bull, kendall holt, casamayor, poppo frietas, zab judah, matthysse, kotelnic, he was called out by martinez and said, so. In boxing anyone can say 1 man ducked another. I bet pacs next fight will not be bradley he is to much of a risk. It will be rushlan so then bob can make jmm vs bradley and continue the cowardly in house roller coster.

Wow all time low level of ducking....

Use that fact that u ducked and got called a coward to duck again.

[maguirre]

He's still not tired of being called a coward.

[DeadScared]

I don't see Mayweather making good PPV numbers in his next fight unless it's against Pacquiao. Mark my word.

Floyd wanted Canelo and Broner in his undercard to support his Khan fight. Showtime says, "It's easy for you to say to say. You're not the one involved in negotiating these fights. Why don't you cut your guarantee to cover the cost of getting these expensive undercards? Of course, Canelo and Broner would want big slices of the PPV sales." Showtime wants Pac. Floyd says no.

[Ham Porter]

Lol... trolling the hell out of you guys.

Taylor made huh?

I do sometimes wonder the same thing myself, though... Why do you (not you specifically, but hardcore Pacquiao fans) want Pacquiao to fight him so bad if hes a ducking coward and bad for boxing?

Don't confuse the incoherent ramblings of an insecure little child as "trolling."

[beatnutts]

no one should really be taking sides and the people that are are just nutt hugging too much. at this level no one is scared. these 2 guys just have huge egos and they won't back down and the hate between Floyd and Arum is real. Everyone knows it. Floyd and Manny can do whatever they want because they earned it but it does suck for fans.

What ever happened to making sense, and that sense of shame that came with a lack of comprehension?

There is shame, depending on what it is and who is speaking.

blame
blām/
verb
1. Assign responsibility for a fault or wrong.
"the inquiry blamed the engineer for the accident"

fact
fakt/
noun: fact; plural noun: facts
1.a thing that is indisputably the case.
"she lacks political experience—a fact that becomes clear when she appears in public"

Even if it's surrounded by controversy then it can still be the case. Bradley officially won his match against Pacquiao though the decision was surrounded by controversy. Can the fact that Bradley officially won via judges decision be argued? No. (That's an undeniable fact surrounded by controversy). So please, point out the undisputable facts in your argument so I can comprehend your point of view.

What definitions of blame are you using that binds it strictly to the court of law or matramony? Excuse me for being so literal but I want you to witness the bs you splurt out.
