Comments Thread For: SHO's Espinoza: Arum 'Not Truthful' on Mayweather Talks

[Flash13]

I just gave you a reason to blame Arum. With links. Blame Floyd at all costs continues. Nothing will change your mind. Even the truth obviously. Carry on.

What reason? I'm lost, you aren't making sense anymore. This happens when you're out of ammo. I guess our conversation is over.

It was over when you glossed over realizing Arum's been bad mouthing Floyd for a while. Means nothing to you, right? What do you think of this Espinoza interview? Lies, right? You can say it, go ahead. I know it's not part of Blame Floyd at all costs:

I tend to believe that floyd is working to make this fight.. If he didn't want the fight, he would be bashing manny, and talking up khan, cotto, etc.. Floyd being quite is a good sign.

Let the super bowl pass, and have a slow news cycle in sports and they will announce the fight..

dont count on it. this ship has sunk and its time for people to move on.

All of you sorrounded to Mayweather don't want Mayweather to fight Pacquiao.
and Mayweather is right he is the boss and all of you are only workers to Mayweather promotion. BOB ARUM IS REALLY RIGHT. because all of you have plenty of alibis not to fight Manny Pacquiao. THE REALITY IS MAYWEATHER IS SCARED TO PACQUIAO he is ducking of how many years. maybe he prepare to fight Pacquiao on 2030.

Well, I never said Floyd bad mouthing Arum through Ariza was a reason for Arum to cancel the fight, so naturally i do not think the opposite. THE PROBLEM i had with Ariza's message; one that floyd backed up, was that he said Arum is the reason this fight isn't happening. Then gave 0 examples on why. Pretty much giving the worst excuse in history not to make a fight. When in boxing history has a fighter not taken a fight because of the other fighters promoter? ITS ABSURD!! just mindblowing...

edit: Let me just add a fight that would gross him a 120 mill

If he were an international presence like Ali, he should have fought Pacquiao in Macau, China or Dubai or Morocco for $120M TAX FREE. Instead, since he gets home sick and he's illiterate, Floyd would rather stay at home where he owns the MGM Brass, the judges, the referees, the Nevada Boxing Commission and give back 40% in taxes.. Give back $48M!!! Brilliant. Go fight Cotto for $30M minus 40% in taxes, and net $28M.. Floyd is as dumb as he looks in those Redd Foxx sunglasses.

.... Mayweather is an American citizen, who would still have to pay taxes on his earnings when he came home, even is the fight was in Antarctica. Kind of why the Filipino taxing authorities are hounding Pacquiao for nearly $80m, plus what ever tax liabilities will come up from the two Macau fights (counting the federal rate, the VAT, and other local taxes, he's supposedly on the hook for 25%-30% of whatever purse/endorsements he got in taxes).

In Vegas, since there's no state income tax, Floyd only has to worry about the US federal income tax, which is about 35% of what he made; if he's hired a good accountant who can properly structure his finances for him, that number could get as low as 20% of his take (based on all of the tax offsets, some of which include a deduction of state sales taxes paid, deductions for property, and the countless deductions for allowed business expenses).

If you had any knowledge, you would've checked the facts before spewing nonsense.
