Pacquiao: I won't leave Arum for Mayweather fight

[Evol]

LETS END THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL
Pacquiao's inner circle agree with what Alex Ariza first told FightHype readers over two years ago; that Bob Arum and Michael Koncz are preventing a mega-fight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao from taking place

Floyd already spoke on it also saying Bob was doing underhanded **** that the public wasnt aware of....And you have Pac's inner circle saying Bob was the one holding things up.

thats funny, i thought when u get fired then u're no longer a part of that "circle"...

Respectfully, posters have given several reasons why the behind the scenes relationship could have changed and all you do is ignore them or mock them.

In 2009, Haymon fighters could fight on HBO, now they can't. In 2009, GBP fighters could fight on HBO, now they can't. In 2009 Ross Geenburg and Kerry Davis were with HBO, now they are not. change happens in business and we as fans don't always know why.

Most importantly in 2009 Bob had not made any fighter sign to TR as a condition of getting in Manny fight. In 2013 he had done it 3 times. This allows him to have total control and maximum profit from each fight.

Maybe its as simpe as floyd saw this, thought it was a smart move, and decided to copy it for the same reasons.

The whole Cold Ward situation is a direct product of the fallout of this fight. This fight getting made is probably the only thing that can remedy the situation too.

That still doesn't explain why Mayweather was willing to do business with Arum from 2009-2012 (you only mention 2009) but not 2013.

You dont get it its called prizefighting and im all for anybody to make all much as they can in any sport its something deep between arum and fmj

Why just bring this ish now? Just now? Do you think we will be arguing if Manny refused all of his demands was laid out on their very 1st negotiation? Blood test, PPV, etc, etc, and now Bob Arum? C'mon man, open your mind and take the blinders off.

Floyd said he had to leave and join TMT not even GB!
And give him some fights too. Smh pathetic!

Peanuts? Dude, both will make **** load of money for this fight, PAC will earn less, way less than Floyd will get, what are you talking about? So you are a fan boy, I see. No point of arguing with you then. Keep on suckling your idols nuts sack then, coz I want to see the best fighter fights the best.

Like i said both guys are to blame and from the look of it you sucking pac nuts because he do no wrong in your eyes all three are to blame arum fmj and pac its not my fault arum sold you guys a dream thinking pac was the a side when in reality he is not

I do not have to explain a condition. The condition is a result of history. You do know we are back on this comprehension word again. This saga has many important events spanning from late 2009 to now. Either you understand what has changed or you do not.
Like your statement, "all Manny had to do was "take da test and we got a fight". Did Arum or Manny agree to take the tests during the first round of negotiations? NO THEY DID NOT.

No they didn't. But all we heard after that was "if you da best, take the test". So when they agreed to take the test in the next round of negotiations, suddenly a new roadblock appeared, then another and another.

So if Pacquaio leaves Arum, what will be the next roadblock I wonder?

[Evol]

Well, we will see. If he doesn't resign then fine, the fight gets made. But if he does, I hope u will be just as harsh on him as you are on Mayweather.

Wasn't Mosley, Tim and JMM making good money? It was nothing compared to what they would make fighting Pac, just like Pac's money will be nothing compared to what he would get fighting Mayweather. Come on now, you know this!

u serious?? can u name me what marquez, shane and bradley made in their last fight prior to signing with TR?? bradley wont even be making this type of money if he wasnt with TR and u know this. bradley cant even draw a hungry fly looking for shiiet to eat but yet bradley is headlining PPV fights making 5+mil per fight. Canelo barely make that much in his last fight and canelo IS the cash cow at GBP LOL.

What changed between 2012-13:

Pacquiao was fighting TR exclusive fighters since 2009. It didn't just start happening in 2013. What the hell are you talking about? Just like Floyd only fights GBP fighters. Why is it only one side of the story with you people?

Still doesn't explain why Floyd was willing to work with Arum 2009-2012. Arum never demanded that Floyd join TR. So again....what the hell are you talking about?

[IMDAZED]

No they didn't. But all we heard after that was "if you da best, take the test". So when they agreed to take the test in the next round of negotiations, suddenly a new roadblock appeared, then another and another.

When did this occur?
