Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Applies Pressure To Get Mayweather's Answer

[ReIoaded]

Arum is a slimy piece of crap. "We won't negotiate through the media, doe."

But, reading about the negotiations were very exciting for us boxing fans.

My favorite part to read about the negotiations was when Arum posted the audio clip on youtube when he was arguing with Al Haymon about the ring size. Al Haymon was trying to make an argument that tension of the ropes of a 20 foot ring would be disadvantageous to Floyd.

When Arum started name dropping all the guys he promoted in the past, especially the part about Ali preferring looser ropes I was on the edge of my seat reading the negotiation blog.

Dude, I don't know about you, but following the negotiation details on the blogosphere has been very exciting!

I am tempted to claim Shenanigans. Post a link to that youtube vid. I'd love to hear it, please.

You men to tell me, you haven't been keeping up with the negotiations? Arum has been negotiating through the media. It's all over the internets

I just kept reading here how Arum was negotiating through the media and came up with the most realistic scenario of how the negotiations would probably have went had he actually negotiated through the media.

I think "Simulations" would be a more accurate description that "shenanigans"

Floyd is his own BOSS nobody applies pressure to him except himself, not even his fans nor al haymon.

Sounds like a line a coward would use to avoid an unwanted challenge.

Floyd needs to stop being a wannabe Cotto and should drop all this nonsense that he is his BOSS like Miguel Cotto is his own Boss.

Miguel Cotto has no promoter. Miguel Cotto is not affiliated with any networks. Miguel Cotto is the only true self employed boxer currently active in the sport.

Floyd Mayweather has a contract with a network. By Floyd's standards of what defines a "BOSS", Miguel Cotto is the true BOSS of Boxing.

Like I always thought. This fight happens in September for Floyds last contract fight. Cotto passing on Canelo means only one thing, him and Floyd will rematch May 2.

Pacquiao's plan B should be Canelo at catch weight or Khan. No Jessie Vargas crap.

I know people are exhausted and desperate but from a business point, it makes more sense to do it in September. They will say its his 'last' fight, more drama means money.

Cries for boycott and insults havent fazed Floyd in the past and they wont now.

Word of the day in Patience. If your name is 'Money' you make this fight in September, bottom line.

If Manny beats either Canelo or Khan, he can maybe make more demands at negotiations. But if its Jessie Vargas, he gets the same cut.
