Comments Thread For: Arum Salutes Pacquiao's Charity Challenge of Mayweather

[tailchaser001]

Meanwhile, not a peep out of floyd? Lol!

Manny is used to giving to the poor so it would not be difficult for him to fight for charity. Floyd Jr. has a problem. If Floyd doesn't agree to fight for charity vs Manny even if he already is super rich, it would prove beyond doubt that Floyd doubts his chances against Manny.

Fight pac for what ......hes not close to floyds last performances or competition hes ranked low in p4p and has no world titles if ppl truely think pac can beat floyd after seeing his last 2 performances then ur either blind dumb or a pac d**k rider plain and simple floyd beats manny 8 rds to 4 at least and thats being nice but when or if he ever does dont matter to floyd or his fans but if it did ppl would still hate and claim pac wasnt in his prime same ol bs over an over floyd is the best in boxing right now has been and will be as long as he is in the sport get over it already worry bout timmy if anything!

So what is more sincere? Having both fighters fight for free and giving their purse to charity which could easily total $200 million?

Or Floyd calling Pac and giving him $40 mil off top? Man Imagine if in 2012 Floyd called Pac and said let's fight for charity and donate are purse the backlash he would have received.

Hell he offered Manny $40 million and people still said he was ducking when Manny last fight he didn't make half of that.

Are you still in denial that offer was just a bluff? During that time Both have millions PPV, both are in their prime, Manny haven't lose yet, Manny was the P4P during that time if not second to Floyd. He was offered a 40 mil flat, if you're in Manny's shoes, will you accept it? Don't answer that we know what would be the answer from a fan boy not a fan of boxing. Listen all you fan boy, let me ask you this? Do you want to see both man going at it in the square arena? Forget that y'all fan boys wants to protect your idol so much so that you guys even posting Floyd landing a punch on Manny. Pathetic bastards like their idol.

Considering that Floyd said one of the reasons he didn't want to fight him was because he didn't want to help him with his IRS and financial troubles, the charity idea requested by Pacquiao should take all that worthless broke Paquiao crap off the table. Sometimes I wonder though if Floyd was truly afraid he would not ever mention Manny in tweets or in the media to try to bury his career instead of stoking the publics coals by always bringing him up and making fun of him. What I really believe at this point is that he is trying to get the publics demand for the fight back to where it was in 2010. While at the same time letting Pacquiao get a little older and more persistent to speakout and lie down and take a smaller cut from the fight. Even though Floyd is very youthful for his age he fights most of the all time greats when they are past their prime (Mosley, Cotto, De la hoya)

Typical bully, when the person being bully fights back, all the mouthing, trash talking, posturing by the bully disappear. Heck even the bully disappear in hiding.

do people honestly believe pac would fight for free? if he really wanted to fight for free and make a point why would he say mayweather has to do the same oh thats right because hes full of **** and trying to play the "good guy" role

You tryna spin it dude??? Wow, in an interview Manny said he is serious about his offer just to give US (as in me and other boxing fans) a chance to see them fight each other. Floyd claims Manny needs his help to get out off tax issues (being resolve as of now while I am writing this 5hitznits). So why not fight for free? Wouldn't you wanna see your boy fight Manny? Oh yeah, your a fan boy not a real boxing fan. GTFO off floyd's junk.

Manny Pacquiao’s offer to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. “anytime, anywhere,” with all proceeds going to worldwide charities, has won the admiration of Top Rank’s Bob Arum.

The astute promoter told the BoxingScene.com/Manila Standard that Pacquiao’s unprecedented offer was “an incredible statement for the sport of boxing,” and it had his full support.

While Arum did concede that “money is important,” he believed that Pacquiao’s offer was a major boost for the sport of boxing.

Pacquiao earlier scoffed at the claim that he was only looking to fight Mayweather for the money.

This story has a ******ed mutagenic quality to it because I never know what I will find as the days progress. I was looking for Arum's expressed commitment to the fight in this, not empty sophistries. A "salute" is not a real endorsement of a live event. Arum said the equivalent of, "Ha ha ha good going Manny you told him, this is a real boost for the sport."

Naturally the Pacquiao obsessed will take this as full-throated endorsement for a charity benefit, wake the **** up because it sure mother****ing isn't.

But Floyd would rather fight Kahn!!!

[assiong]

Asking for a blood testing / Is with in reason .

Asking for Pac to be a Free agent before they negotiate a fight / with in reason based on Arum and Floyd past.

Asking Floyd to fight for free / Is just plain ******ed
- Trainer cost money
-Sparring partners cost money
- promoting a fight cost money
- getting a bank to loan you the money and promote the fight cost money.
NO wonder Pac is broke He is a complete ******. Just how is Pac going to pay Arum if he fights for free? Arum has pac under contract, no matter who banner he fights under Arum gets his pimp portion of Pac bankroll. We all know Arum is about "B1Tch better have my money "

This dude don't get it..... So if those statement are true (according to you) why not blur it out on the first negotiation? Why ask for blood test, why offer a flat $40 mil flat while he's gonna earn triple of that, and oh yeah, their PPV sales during that time is not to far greater apart, why telling Manny he has to leave TR and join his promotional team? Why not say those things in the first place so that we the true boxing fans are not frustrated for the past 4 or 5 years. Isn't it clear to any one that what Floyd's doing is straight up ducking??? C'mon man.....
