Comments Thread For: Arum on Mayweather-Pacquiao Meeting, Says Deal Looms

[Cinci Champ]

This guy right here is more a fan of Bob Arum than any fighter out there.

You havent found one thing Bobs been caught lying about??? You have no clue who the guy is then..FBI raid, bribing the IBF and convicted, fixed mosley/dela hoya, visionquest. Also has a history of short-changing his very own fighters and has been sued by multiple fighters for such.

Thats the guy you support.

ya i honestly dont get it either whether its al haymon , bob arum, any of these promoters i dont care how much u hate a fighter the fact u guys stick up for these pieces of crap over fighters is repulsive they are all lying scum arum through out his career has shown to be a smarter don king. Why people root and defend this guy just because they like manny is beyond me

Fck mike old ass bring in bruce.....iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit's tiiiiiiiiiiiime!! Blood thirsty fans with yrs of pent up frustration explodes into a roar at a fevered pitch!

Bruce is generic as he11 (btw the UFC needs a better ring announcer)

[handwraps]

Why not? It'll bring more drama. We have two great fighters inside the ring fighting, and we have Jim and Paulina arguing. They might steal the show if their arguments turn to pushing and shoving.

That actually would be something to watch lol. If their both there. One without the other would not work.

No one else should announce it. Michael Buffer and his signature, LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLLLEEEE.

Oh he11 yeah, any other ring announcer is 2nd rate...the crowd gets so pumped when they hear that signature.

As the fight gets closer Manny P fans become more terrified. This will be so entertaining!!

[Phenom]

Lol what happened to we are still waiting for him to sign the contract I swear if the media called Arum on his BS (Manny is scared of needles, need a bigger venue , need 6 months to build a new stadium for the fight) the fight would have been made years ago

A smarter don king. Yep. Im on same page, man and the way i see it is if they were really fans of Pac, then why defend Arum? The crook holds him back. Outside of Floyd theres so much options for Pac in terms of opponents, i was truly disappointed when Pac resigned. Promotrrs is general make it difficult to make a good match, the one in particular..Bob f.uckin Arum...and now the networks? How difficult is it gonna be to make klitschko/wilder now?

That wasn't a gutsy move, he did that to make everyone think he was gutsy. Manny had agreed to the terms almost a month ago and the public pressure in mayweather has been tremendous, and he was desperately trying to figure out a way to fight cotto. When he realized nobody was going to let him off the hook he pulled that stunt last night to make it look like he's the one who pushed the deal through lol meanwhile he was the only hold up for the last month as arum and pacquiao have constantly been telling the media with no reply whatsoever from mayweather.

Dude, stop. I'm a fan of PAC since he's ESPN debut, I still defend him when someone makes an overboard ret ard comments against him. But what he did was really gutsy, he could have said "**** no! Why would I go there and talk to him? I'm my own boss, he comes to me" but he didn't. Plus he went to Manny's suite to discuss what need to be iron out. I do believe now that Arum was feeding Manny lies knowing Manny's loyalty for him and how easily Manny to be manipulated because of his natural kind hearted persona. So give the man his credit.

Pac by 12 rd Marathon!

"Floyd will school Pac" ofcourse Floyd is superior in every aspect but power.. but that's all Pac needed in his favor. Morales, Barrera, Marquez, Mosley, Cotto, ODL were all supposed to be better overall boxer.. but once they felt Pac's sting, all that went to waste and they were all beaten by a one-dimentional midget.. Pac by 12 rd Marathon!
