Comments Thread For: Pacquiao, Top Rank Extend Contract To December 2016

[radioraheem]

werent people complaining about this? well now we might get to see it afterall and people still complaining? its like they just want to see if pac will leave or not.

Honestly, business wise and career wise, it would've been better if Pacquaio were a free agent. Like Miguel Cotto. Where he is free to bounce between networks (HBO and Showtime) and promoters (Top Rank and Golden Boy).

Any details about the deal?

But its Floyd's fault the fight won't happen doe!

Pac-Jmm 5 and 6
Pac- Bradley 3 and 4
Pac - prov

End of career

Well, Pac wants the fight and Floyd doesn´t. The Arum excuse is just ridiculous, if you want to fight just shut up and fight.


And Pac is a great boxer, but he is not the smartest person in the world. He should have left Arum many years ago.

It's absolutely fine, Floyd was never going to fight him anyway, be realistic about it.

De La Hoya and Arum can have him fight willing opponents who have no issues getting in the ring with him.

de la hoya and arum arent working together. not with haymon managing 90% of the gbp roster. please stop being delusional.

Floyd's going to throw a party now

*Floyd throws out his book of excuses*

We have a winner!!!

I am telling you all watch out for Pacquaio / Martinez at a catchweight. When Martinez beats Cotto,which he will they will set this fight up. Especially if Martinez shows some slippage or is in tougher with cotto than expected. Roach is like that beat one of my guys and i am determind to figure you out. That is how he is. Didn't "Uncle Bob" promise Pac the Martinez fight if he resigned with Top Rank?

So dissapointed in Pacs post prime career

He has NO ONE else to fight other than JMM

If 41 yr old JMM says no, who is he fighting?

Floyd may cherypick but at least it's a different guy.

Lame.

Pac t a r d s arent you bored?

[HughJass]

Pacquiao vs marquez 12 it is then.

[sugarsmosley]

Arum doesnt feel bad at all, neither does koncz. its freddie that i question, does that man have a heart at all. surely he knows it would have been better even business wise to be a free agent

[turnedup]

Good for him..listen I could've cheered either way, there is a thing to be said about guaranteed money vs the unknown. While in theory yes he could've not signed, pissed off arum sat around waiting on a call from Ellerbe that may never come if he's a free agent, he takes a stay busy fight and happens to lose is Espinoza going to guarantee him $20 million, is Hbo? The answer is no, so if he can manage to get his usual $20 million a fight guaranteed for his next 4-6 bouts more power to him...plus we have no idea if he got an extension bonus like he did last time.
