      Arum will f^ck Oscar over, guaranteed.

      Arum is not running a charity, he is not tryin to help Oscar.

      He is looking out for his company.

      Save this thread and check back in 8-12 months. Oscar will get schooled in negotiations he think are "fair".

          difficult because he knew he killed himself on the scales. last time he fought at 147 was 7 yrs prior to the manny fight. Anyhow Oscar took the risk in thinkin he would have gotten manny in his stable but he lost that legal battle to top rank.

            once again, oscar didnt have to say manny was his hardest. that was his choice, i think oscar would know more than us on this subject...

              I think Pac's has been sucking up to Arum for the last 1-2 months, and he thinks he needs friends like him right now.

              I wouldn't put too much stock into Oscar's answer #11 for a question he changes his mind on often.

                Oscar vs. Pacquiao at 135 or 140 prime 4 prime would have been amazing.

                People forget how much of a beast he was back then. The dude had unreal power at 147 and under and was very fast.

                  Remember what f10m05 said when Cotto allegedly said he was drained for the pacquiao fight? "We should believe what he said because he knows himself, why should I believe a poster over the man himself"..or, "canelo said he wasn't drained for mayweather so it must be true" lol. But of course we should only believe what boxers say when it fits their agenda.

                    i yhink arum has serious interest in making the floyd fight. he doesn't ahve to "run a charity" to work with oscar. they can benefit mutually.


                    arum is going to be dead in a few years. do i expect him and oscar to develop a long standing relationship? no. do i think they're quite lovey dovey in light of schaeffer leaving? yes.

                      i think he knocks manny out without a ton of fuss. he had the counterpucnhing skills, the jab, the size, the chin, everything. the big issue would be the size. oscar was freaking enormous at 135. i don't know if manny could hurt him, but i know he could hurt manny.

                      his only issue is that he was a primarily one handed fighter. his left hook doesn't have great angles to land on a southpaw, and manny used terrific footwork and angles.
