Floyd's I hate Arum excuse is B.S

[The Big Dunn]

ur not making any sense.. and dunn, if floyd wants to get back at bob why not beat manny and take bob out of the game? LOL!

Because Bob and Pac keep preventing the fight from happening so Floyd can't do that. It's either stitches, OST, needle fear, making deals with Margs behind the scenes, not being happy with no ppv even though you'd fight for free, bob not taking step aside money.

"He used the lame excuse of the cut Pacquiao suffered against Marquez, saying he might not be ready for May. (I've never heard of a cut taking more than six months to heal.) However, earlier this week, when Arum thought Mayweather would be on ice behind bars, he said there was a good possibility Pacquiao would fight in May.

Moments after Mayweather was granted the continuance, Arum changed his tune.

"We're fighting in June, one of the four guys," Arum told me over the phone.

I asked him, now that Mayweather was available, would he at least be part of the conversation when Arum meets with Pacquiao next week?

A perturbed Arum's response was, "Absolutely not. Nope."

Said Arum: "All the nonsense has to cease, everyone should be working together to make that fight happen. There's no excuses anymore, none. Every place we go, they ask us when that fight is going to happen. Enough is enough, let's just make the fight happen, let's get it done and make it the next fight for each fighter, sometime in the first six months of next year."

Yes just what we needed another Floyd-Manny thread not in the master thread

Scram chota! This isn't a Floyd/Manny thread. Its a Floyd/Arum thread.

since bob is "protecting" his cash cow. why wont floyd call bob's bluff and negoatiate so floyd can whoop on manny and then that will leave bob with nothing right?

since you switched up after I answered, I'll answer again.

He has tried to negotiate-he negotiated in 09/10 he then negotiated after that according to HBO Greenberg despite Floyd denying the negotiations took place. bob turned down the $40mil/35% offer and then the step aside money.

So he has tried to do exactly what Beater of Ass and Deveel916 asked (which you parroted) but Bob and Pac keep going after the Algieiri's and Rios' of the world.

u mean bob and pac is asking about pac's ppv #'s? bob is saying pac still have marquez and bradley problems? is bob saying pac needs to leave bob first? why would bob take step aside money when bob is manny's boss remember? LOL. why wont floyd just fight the midget and beat him and take bob out? i mean its easy money right?

I will say this, its easy for us as fans to say that Floyd not wanting to work with Arum is a BS excuse. Fact is we probably don't even know 10% of the s^!t that has went on between Floyd and Arum from the start of Floyd's career up till now.

Like B-Hop said on the Breakfast Club interview. Both Floyd and Arum are rich they can both afford to act the way they are acting because from a monetary stand point they don't need each other.

That stand-off between them is messed up for us as fans but that is how they feel and there is nothing we can do about that. We as fans can force both sides to the table by making every possible event that either of them participate in a complete and total disaster.

Like I have been saying the for a minute now the fight is not going to happen.

You don't to tell bold face lies to make your point. The Timberwolves offered Spreewell a 3yr/21 Mill contract to which Spreewell said "how am I supposed to feed my family." If a person can't feed their family with 7mil a year something is wrong.

LOL beater of ass is very good at telling lies to make his point.

And I hope he means it. But that doesn't change the fact that there have been 2 PRIME opportunities to make the fight and both times, it was PAC's side that was not willing to do it.

Well ever since testing is no longer an issue, Floyd has been going on and on about how Arum cant be involved in order for this fight to happen.

testing is no longer an issue...after years of bull****ting from who? bob arum. lol you damn shills have a knack for conveniently overlooking the things he's done since '09.

i didnt switch anything. im still on the same topic. floyd didnt try to negotiate. negotiation is a 2 way street remember? what floyd did was lay out his demands, take it or leave it. why are u trying to act like floyd try to negotiate? LMFAO!!! and when did floyd offer $40/35% ppv?
