Richard came into boxing richer than anyone in the sport..his lure was power. This is the vacuum that has emerged in GBP..Oscar went from the face of GBP to virtually a partner that makes appearances when needed. Schaeffer runs that company..Schaeffer compared himself to Arum in 2008 and Arum publicly scoffed at the notion and that's where the whole beef began. If you actually go through the archives..Arum hasn't said anything negative about Schaeffer in 7 years now..Schaeffer has expressed his dislike of Arum every chance he gets. Manny could demand all he wants and Arum could try to negotiate all he wants..it's not going to make a difference..when the man who signs the checks doesn't want the fighter he reps to fight you he ain't gonna guarantee the money.
Dude you are wrong...Marquez proved you and me wrong. Manny Pacquaio was asleep drooling on a canvas where people thought he was dead. People swore Pacqauio was done for..Pacquaio isn't the type of fighter that falls out of favor because of a loss because it's not a record that makes him a star it's his talents and his style of fighting that made him a star. As long as Pacquaio is willing to step into a ring and put it all on the line with his barrage of punches he'll still be a draw. Arum is a snake but he's an old school snake, and old school snakes only care about one thing."How much money am I getting out of this". Pacquaio losing to Floyd is just another loss on a career with several losses..only thing them fighting accomplishes for either man is that it ends the discussion on who would win. If Arum was scared about Manny taking a loss he would've killed any more Pacquaio vs Marquez fights after the 3rd fight...the 4th fight happening and it's result just speak loudly that arum is all about the money..the fact he wanted and wants a 5th fight means it's definitely about the money. No other promoter in history would've been clamoring for another fight right away versus a guy who nearly killed your boxer especially if he's trying to protect him from anything.
