No announcement yet.
Why is it the only ones who don't want Cold War to end are Floyd fans?

flomos: arum is protecting manny, he's the devil. why do other fighters have to leave their promoter first in order to get a fight with manny?
floyd does the same --
flomos: flloyd is smart! plus floyd is the a-side. the a-side calls the shots! if pac doesnt like it he can go fight someone else.

Floyd was making nowhere near that amount when he fought for Arum so there is no way Bob owes him that much. I remember reading somewhere it was in the ballpark of a couple hundred thousand, but even that may be a stretch

After Pac/Arum accepted Floyd's terms of drug testing and taking less money, Floyd's demands became ridiculous and came out with "Pac must joing TMT and give me some fights before I'll consider fighting him". Along with "I'll never fight Pac as long as he's associated with Arum". Funny because just a year prior Floyd claims he was trying to negoiate for a fight with Pac despite Pac being signed with Arum.
As it stands, Top Rank is willing to put on fights with any promoter whether it be Main Events, Dibella, and now GBP. Shaefer, Floyd, and Haymon have isolated themselves and refuse to do business with TR, GBP, and HBO. So who does it seem like is adding fuel to this cold war fire????
Lets also not forget about how all the Floyd fanatics were all pro GBP right until Shaefer and Floyd jumped ship. After that it was "F that coke head Oscar, etc..." The Floyd fanatics dislike Arum because Floyd dislikes Arum. No other reason.
