Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao's Adviser on Board With Move To 140

[peplz]

Are you sure YOU saw the fight?

Dude is just parroting Al Bernstien who is super inconsistent. I didn't hear him complain once about the excessive amount of holding Kell Brook did against Shawn Porter. Brook held about 5 times the amount Mayweather did but Berstein is so smitten with Kell that he didn't even notice.

So Pac is dropping to 140 for more talent when 147 is finally stacked?

I wonder if hia fans are going to criticize him for leaving the division while its hot?

[radioraheem]

Yes i saw the fight. Too much clinching for my tastes. Even the commentators mentioned the clinching and how bayless never warned Floyd and broke the clinches too soon when Chino had an arm free.

The commentators aren't always correct, and many at times exaggerate and fabricate things. When Cotto fought Martinez, they were exaggerating things for Martinez. Especially Roy Jones, claiming that Martinez had no knees.

Then we saw Martinez do the unthinkable with those same knees.

This is just pure BIG OLE FCKERY....one day they say they want welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr, the next day they say they want to drop down to 140, where all the big names are advised by Al Haymon... wich one is it Bob?

OOOOh but this is all acceptable because it's Manny Pacquiao, im sorry, nevermind you do your think Pacman Floyd's a coward yooo

Wasn't like he was fighting WW's anyway. His last 6 fights (including algieri) have been against JWW's.

There is great talent right now at 147, there is Marcos Maidana who just gave P4P king Floyd a lot of trouble, there is also the hot up and coming Keith Thurman, there's also the recently crowned undefeated IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook... and there is another guy who just happens to be 47-0...

Why isn't manny the warrior taking on any of these challenges? you know what im fine with him moving to 140, at least he'll stop making fighters come up to fight him, manny has been defending his 147 title against natural 140 guys for like three years now smh

Vargas...garcia.

I think at this point for Floyd it can only be Pacquiao or Cotto.

I would say Khan but it seems the majority of the public as well as Floyd say no.

Pacquiao has more intriguing fight options at 147 and now 140!

Hell Maidana has more fight options than Floyd!

If he avoids Emmanuel he has Cotto.

Maybe..and I say maybe..maybe Danny maybe.

better question.

People always say it's Haymon that doesn't wanna work with Arum when it comes to Floyd.

So is Haymon and Arum gonna work together when it comes to Danny Garcia Vs Pacquiao? or Broner Vs Pacquiao.

No. They are not. But people won't even notice that because they will be too busy trying to think of a way to blame Mayweather. And its Bob Arum who will not work with Haymon. People forget that Bob Arum is an 80 something year old white man. He is not excited about dealing with a younger black man as his equal. Just go back and read some of his comments about not knowing who to talk to on Mayweather's behalf. In 2010 after the Mosley Mayweather fight he claimed to be negotiating the Pacquiao Mayweather fight while openly admitting that he had not dealt directly with and didn't seem to have any intentions of directly dealing with any of Mayweather's actual representatives. He instead claimed that he was negotiating the fight with Ross Greenburg who was a executive at HBO and never had any authority to negotiate on Mayweather's behalf. And of course Dan Rafael went to his platform on ESPN to run an interference for Bob Arum like he always does and acted like he saw this as a legitimate attempt at good faith negotiation. Rafael is the epitome of being a dishonest media propagandist and a worm. I really dislike the guy a lot.

The thruth hurts. I am so glad there's people like you who can see directly through Bob Arum's bullsht. It's a shame NSB is blinded by hate.
