    The moment you typed "think" is the moment you should have decided not to waste another second on that clown.

      Manny got KTFO by Marquez and he's still making a lot for Arum, Manny Floyd breaks all records and eclipses whatever he makes in his remaining fights.

      Please tell me, why would Arum not want this fight?
      He put him in with jmm instead of Floyd, who we all think would be tougher and instead of cotto at a non cw. Let's not make him out to be a hero.

          But why would they not want this fight to happen?
          Maybe he paid off Manny debt and Pac needs to "work it off"

          Maybe he realizes after Pac he has no superstar left in that weak stable and cant afford that right now.

          Maybe he feels he needs to let the Algeris' Rios' Vargas of his stable get a crack so hopefully one star can emerge.

          Maybe he hates Floyd so much he just doesnt want to work with him

          I can go on and on but its all speculation. But right now Arum doesnt want fight

                Yall asking why Arum wouldn't want this fight....His beef with Mayweather and Haymon is very personal. It's not about money. Arum has more than enough. He knows his guy likely won't win. He doesn't want to lose to those guys. It's that simple IMO.

                    I'm tempted to think this is nothing more than a smokescreen but I remain optimistic. I really want to see this fight badly.

                    Good job Manny.
                    He will already haven a piece of that weekend representing Cotto
                    Doesn't matter when Floyd and Manny fight, it's gonna break all the records regardless.

                      Yea, it was on ESPN. Same 2006 article where Arum admitted Floyd was willing to fight Margarito but wanted guarantees on future fights. You can google or, if that's too difficult, I can do that work for you as well.
