If that's the case, then what happened to all the other fighters Oscar fought.Yes. It was actually Oscar who made Floyd into the box office sensation his is today. But, it was Arum who made Oscar into a superstar. But none of that matters because it's really Floyd Sr. who made Floyd into the boxer grew to become.
Now, if you look at Floyd Sr, Arum and Oscar... one thing they all have in common is that Floyd has no problem throwing them under the bus regardless of the wonderful things they did for Floyd.
Why weren't they box office sensations as well?
You make it seem as if Floyd got lucky by association and not on skills and talent.Comment

Bob saved Floyd's life, Floyd is an ungrateful little manlet.
Mayweather found himself in some trouble when he was in a fierce contractual battle with Prince. Top Rank stepped in and advanced him $610,000 to settle with Prince, and also cut Prince a check for 20 percent of Mayweathers $3.05 million dollar purse for fighting Phillip Ndou.
The situation with Prince, a well known figure in the rap world, escalated to a dangerous level when several men showed up to the Top Rank Gym on September 11, 2003 and roughed up Leonard Ellerbe and former camp member Thomas Summers, sending both to the hospital.
Mayweathers camp has never confirmed the story, but both DuBoef and Arum claimed to have saved a shaken Floyd Mayweather, Jr., who told DuBoef These are bad guys, you have to help me save my family.
I said, let me give James a letter of credit, Arum said. And Floyd said and I'll never forget it "James don't take no letter of credit.Bernard Hopkins comments on the situation:
Hey, listen, at the end of the day, when I look at guys, and some rappers that I aint going to mention, that talk about gangsta, talk about street, talk about going to jail, talk about being hard on the street, that remind of Floyd Mayweather. Floyd Mayweather is no tough guy. And Floyd Mayweather can tell you about, and Ellerbe can tell you about when a couple of guys came up in Top Rank's gym and they was taking two to three weeks to scrub blood out of the stains of the carpet that was in there. Where was the gangsta then? See, they know I know.
There’s a murky, violent history between Floyd Mayweather and his former manager, James PrinceJames Prince, manager of Andre Ward, recently hit out at Floyd Mayweather, his former client, for his derisory comments about Ward. This brings to mind the acrimonious, and violent, split between P…Last edited by Weebler I; 01-22-2015, 05:22 AM.Comment

Sounds like they beat him badly.DuBoef said he then went to a local emergency room, where Leonard Ellerbe and former camp member Thomas Summers were being treated, although he saw neither that night. He said he spoke with Ellerbe by phone the next day and scheduled a meeting for three days later. At that meeting, Arum said Ellerbe's face still was swollen “like a balloon.”Comment

Business is business - especially in Boxing.
Floyd had the last laugh on Arum and played him at his own game.
But...
Floyd has a huge grudge, Arum bruised his delicate ego and now Floyd uses Arum as an excuse for not signing a fight with Pacquaio.
It is just Floyd be a diva and a ducker.Comment
