      Every single setback was due to one party asking for ridiculous demands....

      There is absolutely no way Bob is at fault for this...

      Someone said "if it weren't for Arum this fight would've been made 4 years ago"

      Truth is if it weren't for one party coming up with all the roadblocks, this fight would've been a trilogy on HBO by now....

      Only 40 mil
      Stringent requests that at the time were unheard of
      Promoter problems
      His last fights only made xxx,xxx
      He has xxx problems

      I mean come on, I'm all for the fight happening and all the excuses as to why it hadn't happen should be put to rest but it's clear as to who's fault it was..

          Manny does whatever Arum tells him to do. If in 2010 Arum would have told Manny to man up and take the blood tests, we would have had a fight back then.

          But it seems like he wasnt inclined to do so. He didnt want it bad enough.
          Yeah you got it right, for a fight to be made one has to want it bad enough while the other has to demand everything bad enough. Had Pac not bend over backwards for all of Floyd's demands, would you think we will have this fight?

          Now that it has been proven that it was only Pac who wants this fight bad enough while the other was forced and push back to the wall to want it.

                  40 years of bringing boxing to the masses. Arum is the hero we don't deserve.

                  Thank you God Arum!!
