Comments Thread For: Schaefer Rips Arum Over Khan/Floyd, Advises Bradley

[MGMGRAND]

Mayweather really has taken over GB. They used to have their own voice and opinion back then but they have become the ambassadors of Floyd. Schaefer used to believe in Mayweather fighting Pacquiao until Floyd got in his ear and now they're all sharing the same excuses; it's disgusting.

It's called protecting your investment, no different from what Arum does with Pacquiao, he comes out screaming and defending every action.

why are we still talking about two names (well, one anyway) in boxing that each represent the extreme opposites?
the boxing superstar floyd mayweather jnr and biggest **** in boxing skankmir "king khunt" khant.
the poll, the poll shows that its just more and more people just want to see khan do the zab judah chicken dance AGAIN........ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
i genuinely believe floyd should now fight the pacman, there is nobody else to threaten floyds undefeated record.
king khunt has no fan base i know of here in england accept bolton maybe...lol bolton..ha! laughable...fackin bolton.....(sigh)
as many of you americans have seen in the past, we have had fighters from these shores who are truly gentlemen,engaging,nice,funny,charismatic,loveable ,humble and have very good boxing credentials with...........boxing skills and resumes to prove it!
for example, recent years include nigel benn,steve collins etc and you all saw how popular ricky hatton was even in your own country they loved him and why?
A:not for a second was he ever greedy.
B:very humble even in victory like against luis collazo
C:never pegged himself up there in the stratosphere against anybody even equally as good or better.
D:never insulted or knocked any other human inside or outside of the sport.
E:always held all other fighters in extremely high regard.
F:never ever said anything about money,conditions or demands for this or that.
G:was 100% loved by all with garunteed entertainment and always came to fight fearing nobody.
now, can anybody here tell me which of these attributes this khan has?
NOT FACKIN ONE!
and that, ladies and gentlemen is why we here in england do not like him.
hes embarrassing to say the least and i can categorically state that speed or chin has no chance against fmj or breidiss prescott in a rematch.
i mean cmon, hes not even faced the best of the domestic level fighters here to even earn a chance at most of the fighters hes faced in the last 8/10 fights.
after these recent easy losses he should be doing what other fighters do.....
lower rung on the ladder and climb, thats what this psort has ALWAYS been about.
it would be very wrong in every sense for fmj to consider "choosing" this fellah.
people can argue something about it all day and try to make a case thats only holding air because of how often its discussed and hyped it becomes but, the reality is its just a money fight for all the wrong reasons.
and floyd? he said a couple of years ago "im gonna save the sport of boxing".
shame....i wont pay for it no more.

Well put my friend, like the above states a part from a small minority who are NOT boxing people every one else in England really wants to see the back of this joker as he is a embarrassment both in and out of the ring....Fight a contender you knob!

after PACMAN beats bradley he'll glady knockout amir khan

wouldn't that be a cherry pick though?? I thought Khan should not be in the ring anywhere near elite opponents such as Pacquiao and Floyd.

I kinda hear ya but still it doesnt work this way!!! promoters are boss!!!

they can even make a fighter stay on the shelf for a long time.

In MMA there also is no co-promotion. WSOF challenged Bellator to let the big names from each company fight each other. what would have resulted in sky high ratings or maybe even good PPV numbers. but so far nothing has come from it, the fighter wanted it and even the promotion WSOF wanted it but because promotion Bellator is not interested its a no no.

contracts speak louder than words unfortunately...

It doesn't work that way now because fighters are letting that happen, promoters are not the boss their job is to promote!

The last time there was a big Cold War it was between Don King and HBO, evander Holyfield caught flack from the media for calling out Lewis then saying that it couldn't happen because of promotional issues! The media called bull****, and evander looked like he was ducking! So like a true man, he let his feelings be known to King and forced the fight!

If Don king can be swayed then anyone can!

Although I follow mma, I'm not to big on its finer details.. So I can't comment on that!

i wasn't being serious, but if khan gets a win over a decent guy i would welcome it.

Another Golden nail in Arums Phillipino dollar lined coffin LOL. Rob gets de-balled every time he opens his frog face. Rob will die as a frustrated jealous old turd thanks to GBP.

Hi thats a good precedent,im a shamed to say i dont know all the details regarding the negotiations of the Lewis vs holyfield match. I did hear that promoters denied/avoided Lewis getting a deserved big shot for some time, but i didnt know that because of holyfields powermove this ended and the fight became a reality.
talking about Don King i think he did protect Laila ali vs lucia rijkers and maybe ann wolfe.

regarding FMJ and pacman there is the situation that both fighters arent really really committed to fight each other. I think as a hole both parties are happy how they can still make PPV fights and good money.

hypothetical just hypothetical, if pacman goes to showtime/goldenboy that would mean that FMJ has less bargaining power. for instance if he would pressure guerrero for 3,5M guerrero could say FU i fight pacman. And as we can see the public only considers a few fighters a must see with Floyd.

But all in all thx for the Holyfield knowledge i didnt know that :-)

Why do either of these jokers have a shot at Mayweather over Bradley?

Because Bradley's wifey thought it would be better to fight Pac and sign a contract extension with Top Stank thats why.

Besides Bradley would get beat by both Maidana and Khan. Remember Khan calling out Bradley but Bradley dipped out and fought Pac were he technically got beat but got a gift decision courtesy of Uncle Bob..

[GRUSTLER]

Yes he's so marketable that He hasn't had a fight for almost a year....... He always has fought 2-3-4 times a year before now..... Phoney has been stringing him along, and even if Khan does get the fight, he hasn't done anything to deserve a big ticket fight anyway. So if it is on, it means that the fans are going to be mulcted. As they nearly always are in a Phoney fight. His last good fight was Castillo 1 which he lost.

Arum is actually getting at Schaefer,when he mentions "Hitler", because Schaefer, although a Swiss, is from the German canton and Arum probably knows a lot about him that we don't -and never will.. Considering the outrageous things that Schaefer has dumped on Arum in the past without real cause, I don't blame Arum. He does nothing for no reason, and we don't neccessarily have to be in on the reasons why or wherefore etc. I don't care anyway. They are running their businesses their own way.

You put an exclamation point on JACK ASS with this post.
