Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather-Pacquiao Miami Meeting Helped A lot

Its that simple huh? Why the men and women who do this for a living cant get figured out as quick as you did is beyond me. Why arent you making the big bucks working for these people?

I cant quite figure if you're being serious or not?.. ha ha.. I'll just take it as a compliment..

we are all falling for all of their BS from both sides. The negotiations started arums side said ok to all terms, started the PR war with the duck crap to pressure Mayweather. Someone else in forum posted that theres no way Mayweather is going to let the story be that he relented under pressure and agreed to fight. So of course, he asks for a few minor details to be changed and then bam the fight can happen. But in SWAG style, he doesnt just send espinoza to go hammer out the issues, he makes a very public display to get up in Manny's face to tell him to cut that duck **** out and tell him to make those minor changes. I believe this fight happens after they write that 1000 page contract. While i do think a Superbowl announcement would be entertaining, one tweet and the whole world will know about this fight in 5minutes.

You solving it and Floyd agreeing to it are two different things, as you know...

Floyd: "No Lampley and No 24/7 d'ohhhhhhhhh"

It's no 24/7 or all access you guys are sad that you keep leaving that out networks was fighting over that floyd said scrap both of them and the lampley thing is a speculation that fat Dan came up with that's why you haven't had anyone else report on it

I don't know how many times I've said this, but I'm convinced this fight gets announced during the Super Bowl. The best promotion ever. In my house alone, I'll have 50-70 people (hopefully a little less) over for my Superbowl Party and those who don't really watch football, will be at my house when they announce the fight and will be ready to come back to my house for "Fight Night". If they are not planning the Super Bowl to make the announcement, then someone should get fired because figured for the past couple months that nobody is scared to fight anyone. A fight like this needs to be announced during something big so everyone is talking about it. Not to take away from the other event, but to add to it. I don't even remember Floyd ever announcing his fights as early as people was wanting him to. He's just not going to announce his fights 6 months ahead of time. Like Khan said, Floyd likes to announce his opponent a couple months before the fight and while Floyd is in shape and ready to go, his opponent is just starting to get in shape.

I've been advocating for months that its been Manny's fault for not taking control of his career like Cotto and Mayweather. Even went as far as calling Arum his boss.

But I have to say Pac got on the phone called Arum, gave the order and here we go lol ok pac.

If Manny didn't like Arum he wouldn't re-sign with him.
