Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: There is One Guy To Blame - Floyd Mayweather!

[Spoon23]

Arum knows Pac is about to be expired in 2 fights. Pac is an old fighter as Floyd is. It his time to cash out.

It's time. He knows if Pac wins this can be a trilogy. More money for everyone. In hundreds of millions.

So the angle he doesn't want is bs. He has gone through different channels including top dog CBS moonves to make this happen.

This is all on Floyd.

[DeadScared]

you are correct Arum, there are only one man to blame and that one man wouldn't be Mayweather. That one man is in fact you arshole!!!

We all know Pacquiao personally wants the fight and has publicly called out Mayweather many times to the point that he said; "Maybe he's scared to lose.". And why do you think would Arum sabotage this single biggest Boxing payday ever for everybody involved?

Well, simple reason tells me it's Mayweather who doesn't want this biggest payday ever because yeah, "Maybe he's scared to lose.".

so sick of this circus. to call it a joke wouldnt even describe it.

First, I blame both camps. I think this fight would have happened in March 2010 if not for the 'I'm afraid of needles' stuff........I don't have a rooting interest. I'd probably end up rooting against Mayweather, just like I always rooted against Michael Jordan, Joe Montana, Tiger Woods, Leonard.......the proverbial favorites while knowing I was likely to be disappointed and knowing that rooting against them was not how I would bet were money involved.....

But of all the fans in the world, Pacquiao fans really make it hard to root for the guy......and I reallly like him. Too bad.

As for now and the post I made on the previous page that five or so have jumped on???

Can ANYONE that said I was wrong about what's really happening.....

Please explain this?

Showtime exec: Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao contracts not crafted yet

http://www.latimes.com/sports/sportsnow/la-sp-sn-mayweather-pacquiao-boxing-showtime-arum-20150124-story.html

As I said, HBO and SHO have not finished with the details, nobody has signed anything, including Pacquiao.............

There are details still being worked out. Until you hear differently from HBO or SHO, you don't know much.........or you believe one of the two biggest con artists in modern boxing history in Arum......King being the other.......

WAKE UP.......DO SOME RESEARCH.........PLEASE!!

BTW.......I said if Pac loses, he will move forward doing roughly 300K buys. I would like to see actual number showing the Algieri fight did 400K.......if it did, those are inflated numbers. And China TV doesn't mean much for this fight but probably got Manny 40 instead of 35%........who cares..........Arum is trying to shut this fight down before anyone knows the real story and the reason for the real hold up..........read the article.........then tell me how it's 'all on Floyd'......he's agreed to as much as Manny has. The terms between fighters.........but now it's on the networks. So why open your mouth knowing that unless to sabotage those very same negotiations??

He is an old senile bribing POS........but this is obvious to all but the blindest of sheep........

I agree on the beyond the circus..........but I read the sig line and who is the absolute idiotic clown that said this garbage:

I needed a laugh.........Povetkin flooring Frazier and Peter beating him toe-to-toe?? Really??

Who is this clown and what is his problem with Frazier?? Only two guys beat him.......and to do it REQUIRED they had insane ability or insane power.......neither Peter or Povetkin posess either.........and speaking of 'chinny'......LMAO!!!

Ah........needed the laugh for today...........what an absoulte moron......let me guess........a 'KLIT' defender......

You wrote to much garbage.

I'll keep it simple for you, that a 3rd grader can get.

No one walks away from a 150million fight.. I fighter will embrace that coz that's what prize fighting is all about. For fame money and glory.

But..if..

The fighter is concerned of health and considers health is more important than money and is scared for dear life..

Then he won't take the fight.

Only fear will prevent you from taking that 150million bucks. Fear my friend. Fear can make you do crazy things like walk away from 150million fight.. FEAR.

[mrjax]

So people are telling me that Bob Arum is blocking a fight where he's going to make alot of money for doing less then half the work (since Mayweather promotions is the majority) he normally does setting up a boxing match? how the **** does that make any sense

There is still money to be made with the talk track of, "TBE is scared of my fighter". If Pac loses to Mayweather, suddenly the cash cow that is Manny will stop producing milk for Arum. Every fight Manny has, they trot out Mayweathers name, this is well established.

Let me understand, so the first time Manny was scared so much of needles, he walked away but with Floyd, it's because he's scared? And Manny muct have been through some amazing therapy to reverse that aversion to testing so that he could make roughly 100 mil........

Since you're apparently not fond of reading, just at least try to read the article.........a little balance and truth can help.....unless you just don't want to know what the real hold-up is........and you are convinced regardless:

[Scipio2009]

Arum talks about some of the actual terms that he agreed to here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KP73mqS1vhg

Floyd is unable to say anything because head of Showtime and HBO know the truth and will call out Floyd if he lies and expose him.

lol

sat through that whole friggin' video and the closest that he came to mentioning a single term was talking about emails, which he never discloses.

try again.

Here's an article that suggests a few reasons to be skeptical of Arum's motives and why NO ONE should believe with absolute certainty that he is telling the truth now.
