Comments Thread For: Bob Arum on Latest Pacquiao-Mayweather Rhetoric

[John Barron]

LOL, You're an idiot. In every other thread you've said Floyd should fight Pac, stop ducking, and in this one. . . Ooo we're all a little antsy, ramifications blah blah.

fools be like superman walking into a phone booth... mindless casual fans one minute, arum's spin doctors the next.

The problem is you don't understand, and no one who talks about Arum speaking with CBS really understand. It's all about Al Haymon and Bob Arum talking it out. If Arum can't do business with Haymon, he can go speak to god himself, he's not getting anywhere. Many people will feel ****** when they realize this "Les Moonves" person or Espinoza or who ever, have no real control over who Floyd actually fights. Arum and Haymon have control over the Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight.

Why is Haymon always mentioned as a road block? Dude never says anything and is about that paper. Arum be the only guy with grudges to the extent of not doing business with people he likes. I remember when 50 was talking mad **** about Floyd and how Haymon was giving Floyd an allowance but once 50 said he would put his fighter at the time (Andre Dirrell) against one of Haymon fighters for a couple of mill bet and Haymon said lets do it. This article is proof enough that Arum is the road block because not too long ago he says "Floyd don't want to fight and he is trying everything" but now says "It would be disrespectful to Mexicans". Only JACK ASSES believe this guy.

This fights not gonna happen

Floyd seems genuinely interested and apparently made an offer. Pac wants the fight and thats clear. The snag is Bob, hes only trying to make it "seem" like hes making an attempt and when he finds his out, his charade will turn to - making it seem like he "tried everything".

"Tried everything" but agree to the terms

Nobody has signed anything, so how do you determine who is interested based on hearsay?

Arum is waiting to call for Al Haymon's bluff

You have a sick infatuation with al haymon

[GRUSTLER]

He's not serious about the fight according to ppl yet he goes over espinoza's head. Go figure, I guess a boss goes directly to a big boss to not do business...not sure what galaxy ppl live in or where he was wrong to say neither of these fighters are mexican to want to hawk themselves on that holiday. Would you put out two of the same product on the same day? I doubt but then again that's why 90% of businesses fail. The irony is mofo's will avoid Floyd's plethora of double talk but will dissect the shhh out of anything Arum says.

This is Bull$h!t because these are not two ordinary boxers fighting on Mexican Independence day but rather Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. I'm sure Mexicans would be happy have the two biggest stars in boxing fighting on that day. I think the fight is going to happen and because of Oscar putting pressure with Canelo/Cotto on May 2nd. Arum is in a tight spot because now Floyd is talking about the fight so Arum must deliver. And why would Arum be talking to the CBS/Showtime big wig if he has doubts about the date? Something ain't adding up.

[Johnny Rubber]

Mayweather is his own boss. He decides who he fights and when. Al Haymon works for Mayweather, not the other way around. Apparently, YOU don't understand that!

Suggesting that Floyd is bigger than the sport

[megadeth]

After info like this, there shouldn't be anymore wonder as to why Floyd didn't want to work with Arum.

[JohnnyRebel]

I know one thing, Roach is literally shaking right now

[junior gong]

So you find his parkinsons funny?

[isidius]

Pacquiao should've left this old lying POS a long time ago.
