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

[al-Xander]

Very sad. Pacman didn't have to do this if only Money Mayweather is brave.

Fans know that Pacman is tired of Money Mayweather's excuses and tried to move on. But Money Mayweather brought up the fight again smearing Pacman's name and pictures in his tweets. For what, just to promote his Khan fight.

Too bad Money Mayweather didn't have the balls of Tyson, Hagler, Duran, etc. The fight would have happened a long time ago.

Frazier, Dundee, Mandela, peace be upon them, didn't live to see the superfight. All because of this man they call chicken.

It's sad.

Yeah, ok. The BIR and IRS are waiting for their charity cut first, Bob.

Time to pay the piper.

This is all a big joke.
Neither fighter wants the fight. They've both discovered that it has been more profitable for them to talk about a potential fight instead of actually getting in the ring.
They have hooked fans into buying their respective PPV's against inferior competition, in hopes that the next fight will be against each other, only that next fight never comes.
Instead they created these scenarios where both know they fight won't happen. Mayweather says you must leave Arum knowing full well it isn't going to happen. Pacquiao says lets fight for free knowing full well it isn't going to happen.
It's all a ruse.

Props for the post.

Yep good post!! It is fair to say that if you've followed it unbiased and seriously, you have to come to the conclusion that both parties weren't really really really genuinely eager to face each other probably because there was a lot of good PPV's to be made for both without having to face each other. Arum definately wasn't eager in the past and the same goes for mayweather. maybe 2015 we'll know what the end game is. manny only has recycle matches left at HBO so maybe he'll go to showtime where there are new PPV's available. I also would like to know if Amir Khan is willing to fight on HBO, as that could be a PPV for pacman.

The big question at the end of this year will be, will Pacman and bradley go to goldenboy/showtime to prove they can beat the dude that is arguably the best WW. If Pacman and Bradley dont make their move in Floyd's final year than they consider business more important than ambition. Time is running out...

Cause he is under contract with Bob Arum and for some reason they can't work out a deal.

Funny how fast did the Cotto and Canelo fight get made with no Arum? OH OKAY

Oh really?


This was 2011. They can work out a deal, Floyd just doesn't want to.

The same people who are criticizing this are the same ones who would be championing this had it come from GBP,Floyd or Haymon.

Stop it, it's not realistic at all!

Then explain why there haven't been any other goldenboy-toprank matchups idiot!

Scheaffer said he won't work with TR.

So he took a picture with Bob Arum and Jamie Foxx and now all of a sudden they are business partners? And everything is smooth?

By that logic I can take a pic with a fine girl who is smiling and she wants to have sex with me because of it?

Just because a fan takes a pic with Floyd doesn't mean their friends! Just because Arum took a pic with Floyd doesn't mean they will do business together.

You must be a straight clown thinking that proved anything. Quick question for you! How many Top Ranked fighters has Floyd fought since he left Top Rank???

Class dismissed.
