Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather Afraid, Looking For a Scapegoat

[Reloaded]

If Floyd doesnt sign and fights someone else, I think all the members on here should make our own statement and pledge not to buy that fight. Its a small act i know, but this site has a lot of fans on it and if we can all make sure Floyd doesnt get a cent off us then i think thats a positive thing. Ill Start a thread that can serve as a petition for it if it happens.

Easy choice for me as i have 0 interest in any floyd fight that doesnt involve manny.

Because what this man appears to be doing is basically killing the sport slowly with his own greed. He wants people to fork out for mismatches when the defining super fight of our generation is right in front of him. Its fcking disgraceful and i defended Floyd a lot over the years, he's making me feel like a fool right now.

I would like to see what it is he is not signing , this a case of B side saying we agreed , what exactly did they agree to Floyds terms or their terms , I know whats being said but there is no proof and no body is backing Arum up saying they agreed to everything , not even Moonves is saying it .

Floyd never wanted to fight Pac. Thats why he tried to fight Cotto behind the scenes.

Oscar who doesn't have a dog in that fight said it weeks ago on twitter

And here is Jim Lampley after the Rios Alvarado fight saying its gonna be Cotto



So if Floyd really wanted to fight Pac, why did he negotiate to fight Cotto weeks if not months ago? Simple, he doesn't

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

So to say he doesn't want it is unfathomable.

It's time to cash out. 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.

I'll make it clear for all you guys.

Who walks away from a million dollars?

Now..

Who walks away to a 150 million plus dollars?

No one does unless you are scared for dear life..

Now who is ducking? The guy who thinks health is more important than money.

Come on man. It's pretty ****** to blame arum at this point. He gains absolutely nothing for holding up the fight.

Sigh, a known fact most orthodox fighters hate fighting Southpaws, Apollo Creed was advised not to fight Rocky. However Floyd fought Guerrero, Judah and Corley if I recall correctly.

Soooooo... yesterday Arum says everyone even Espinoza has done there best to make the fight and its only Mayweather that's stopping the fight, then today in response to Arums comments, Espinoza says Arum is lying and the fight is still being negotiated by all parties and there is no contract. Arums response to Espinoza's comments is Mayweather doesn't wanna fight lefties and his team is looking for a scapegoat. But yesterday Espinoza was one of the good guys according to Arum. Double talk usually means lie, lie, lie.

It's particularly funny that Arum is the only one saying all terms where agreed too, but every other party involved has confirmed the fight is still being negotiated. I also find it funny that there was a supposed gag order, and while the fight is being negotiated Arum is in the media bashing Mayweather and effectively breaking the requested gag order that Arum himself said was in place. The similarity to 2009 -2010 negotiations is glaring. Same process negotiations reached a very sensitive point and Arum went on a media rampage bashing Mayweather.

Click the link this covers all negotiations truthfully.

My opinion, Arum is at it again.
