Pacquiao: I won't leave Arum for Mayweather fight

[junior gong]

Based on what? The hopes and dreams of fanboys? Floyd had the slightly better numbers then and he has the far better numbers now. That simple-minded hand-waving criteria you just made up is completely irrelevant. Splits are based on star power, and at the point where they negotiated 50/50 it was because they had roughly equal drawing power. Now they don't as demonstrated by the decline in demand for Pacquiao fights. Which makes Floyd the clear A-side.

.....Meth?

Give that a listen lads, trust me, you won't regret it

this is what i dont get. arum has nothing to do with the actual fight. floyd will be fighting manny not arum and how sweet of a revenge it would be by beating the best fighter of the promoter u hate the most?? i guess floyd doesnt want to seek revenge for all the bad things arum has done to him, atleast this is what the floyd fans claim as to why floyd doesnt wanna deal with arum.

No offense dude but Manny sue floyd, doesn't this logic apply to Manny? Instead of suing floyd shouldn't he have agreed to the 50/50 offer and beat his ass?

floyd retired and came back how did he had better numbers?? pac was in the position to call shots in 09 but yet pac got trash for it but now floyd is getting all these praise and thats because he's the "a-side"??

If I am not mistaken, floyd's request to have manny leave Bob came after TR had Tim, JMM and Shane cut ties with their promotional outfit as a condition of getting a fight with Manny. They all complied with this request. SO this request to get rid of Bob seems to be Floyd making his opponent do the same.

I get your point. I think this is likely more about the beef between Arum and Haymon than anything else.

It's just not the same today as it was in 2009.

We are just supposed to all pretend it is still 2009 and give Team Pac whatever they want.

if ever pac leaves arum, i bet you floyd next demand is for pac to leave roach... 'cause he talks shit about his crackhead dad.

Oh dear oh fooking dear.

Arum has been slamming Floyd in the press since just about the day he left Top Rank. He has done the same to other fighters that have left him too. You're saying this hasn't happened? What is your point exactly?

Right.... yet Floyd apparently was willing to do bidness with him in 2009 (50/50, ost) and then again in 2012 (40m flat fee).

But in 2013, he suddenly had an epiphany that he hated Arum

When will you guys stop buying this ****? Smoke and mirrors. Fake offers and roadblocks.

Manny got heaps of praise from you delusional halfwits for turning down drug testing. It made Manny a brave proud man for not being negotiated to, didn't it? Now that Floyd has all the leverage he is just supposed to pretend Manny is every bit still as relevant as he is? Floyd has all the leverage, so Team Pac needs to suck his **** to get a fight. Just like everyone else has needed to suck Team Pac's **** to get a Pac fight. I really don't see a problem with Floyd using leverage, Team Pac does it all the time.

Nor should he need to.

Yes of course, others should only have to do it to fight him, right?
