Comments Thread For: Arum: I Don't Think Mayweather Ever Fights Pacquiao

[oneon11]

Man STFU

Floyd fans be like Bob needs to step aside and Let TMT promote it. Then PAC better agree to 70-30 split in favor of Mayweather with no ppv cut. Use Grant gloves for the fight. Manny has to train in the USA his entireman training camp. HBO can't be apart of anything. If he don't agree, then **** him. Floyd don't gotta fight him anyway.

Pacroid doesn't even deserve 30%, more like a flat rate of 1.5mil since he's been fighting rematch after rematch. Then getting KTFO only to come back and fight a lesser weight guy like Rios only makes his worth very little. The guy hasn't fought a quality opponent in years. Whereas in Floyd's case he's at least fighting guys that have a chance at an upset......

Wonder how long before Arum will have that stadium built or have people forgot about that lie among all the other ones ole Rob Arum has told????..???

what about him saying Manny couldnt fight Floyd because of a cut sustained in the previous fight with Marauez would not be healed in time but then he went on to fight i think it was Bradley a week or two after Floyds fight

Bob arum "yesterday I was lying, today I'm telling the truth."

when koncz went to mayweathers gym during the same timespan, to say to floyd that they could negotiate without bob arum. unfortunately floyd is not thinking about boxing at that particular time. if manny accepted floyd's demand of leaving arum out. how sure are the fans that mayweather are thinking about boxing when manny goes knocking out of their door.

You're right Bob, and it's all your fault! Cuts, Stadiums, can fight til' June, etc. You ruined it for Manny, and now you set Manny up for a fight with Chris Algeri. No Floyd, no Canelo, no Khan...but Chris Algeri! Manny should've left you last year!

Floyd can never be considered TBE, only his worshipers would ever consider such a foolish notion. Seeking out the best opponents and challenges is part of being TBE. Floyd prefers to pick and choose opponents, which is his choice, but it eliminates him from consideration of being TBE.

Mayweather is not undefeated he lost to Castillo the first time, and even if he were undefeated his record is padded and he avoided Pacquiao and others. Marciano fought E. Charles, Jersey Joe Walcott, and even though he was old, Rocky still fought Joe Louis. Mayweather never fought Pacquiao in his prime. Mayweather never fought the best at 140 or 147, and flat out ducked Margarito and Pacquiao. He also backed out of moving up to fight Winky Wright who was the top dog at 54'.

Mayweather could never be the best of his era... he is three divisions and at least two wins over hall of famers behind Pacquiao...

Manny should have left him long before last year.

If you're a Floyd fan who brings up that Floyd offered Pac $40 million, then you obviously can never be taken seriously and you're just here to defend May and not talk with any credibility...

Just think about calling a fighter directly and offering him less than $60 million of what he had been told he could get for the fight without PPV revenue...

CBS/Showtime made money on one Floyd fight lol... I guess one out of four isn't bad... Amir Khan on a U.S. PPV will do nothing for the numbers either will Keith Thurman... I mean The Ghost wouldn't even fight Thurman because he didn't feel he was a big enough name lol...

I wouldn't be shocked if Floyd retires because he doesn't want to fight Pacquiao without having every advantage in the fight (choosing gloves, referee, etc.)... and there are no other opponents who can get Floyd over 1 Million PPV buys...

roidweather is still scared after all these years.

[MisanthropicNY]

PPV sales actual and projected:

Floyd v. Maidana I = 850K PPVs

Floyd v. Maidana II = Less than 850K PPVs

Projections:

Floyd v. Amir Khan = 600K PPVs

Floyd v. Thurman = 600K PPVS

Floyd v. Molina = 550K PPVs

Floyd v. Pacquiao = 2Million + PPVs

Still make sense for Floyd to duck Pacquiao?
