Comments Thread For: Arum Eyes Mayweather-Pacquiao in Cowboys Stadium

[Build That Wall]

Arum needs to leave Mayweather alone. Khan vs Mayweather will be just as big in the UK. ;-] I'm almost certain Floyd would pick Khan.

Khan is not worthy.

There's gotta be a way to convince people that this so-called superfight will turn out to be one of the most boring fights that you'll ever see. Rewarding a guy with millions of dollars who just runs, potshots, clinches just doesn't make any sense.

Khan is not worthy.

i negate you.. khan is worthy..

I think people fail to consider how Arum will perceive all of this.

For Pacquiao, it is a lucrative pay day: $40 million, and 35% of the revenue.

For Bob Arum it is an issue. As things stand, I'm guessing the money would go to Top Rank and then he would pay Pacquiao from the money. If Pacquiao is to be paid from a different source, Arum would be robbed of the possibility of cooking the books in his favour, furthermore, Pacquiao would see just how much he is paying Arum when the later has to ask for his share of the pie.

The issue people run into is conflating Pacquiao's biggest pay day with Arum's biggest pay day. Arum will stand to make a lot less if he's not in control.

The fact that he's already brought up the fight occurring in Texas should be proof of his intention. Already, he is looking to set up unnecessary roadblocks.

YOUR hero not 'OURS' im not too fond of either floyd or pac bcuz BOTH are cherry pickers...check my post history and youll see i support neither floyd or pac

Smart move by Showtime. They've invested quite a bit into Floyd, time to get their payout. They must know Amir Khan is another joke of a fight like Guerrero, Ortiz, and Maidana.

Garcia is more worthy. He is undefeated and he made khan do the stanky legg and the booty dew.

Less than a week til the fight. Floyd's name is brought up. . I'll do what I've done before and not believe this guy
