Comments Thread For: Arum: We're Not Welcome, No Pacquiao Grand Arrival

[The Big Dunn]

Yeah. The question was something about asking how training went. Bob said "fuck." and interrupted. Said they were going to have to reschedule. He wants only the major news reporters.

Bob don't wanna talk about the cramps or the cream. LOL!!!

Dan said in an ESPN a blog post he was unhappy that the 1st question came from the guy at The examiner or examiner.com and not a major media outlet. why?, dan had no idea.

Dan said its being rescheduled for a few major media outlets.

Wow that dude is petty as hell

"We don't need a show for his arrival and we can do without all the hoopla," Arum said. "We'll keep it calm for Manny. We'll get a big room downstairs at Mandalay Bay, and Manny will talk to the press there in an orderly way and in a comfortable environment. I think that's a lot better for Manny and, frankly, it's better for the press. Why does he need a grand arrival when he's not even staying at that place?"

Floyd constantly trying to make himself look better. Can't be done.

Manny tends to get flustered when you ask him certain questions, especially regarding why the fight didn't happen.

I understand both camps position.

Strongly disagree! ... Anyone can change for the better.

That's almost like stating that the multitude of dedicated trolls on BS, are destined to be trolls no matter what.

-When Marley, who used to work for Don King as a publicist, was identified as the first person with a question by the moderator, Arum lost it.

-***8220;It was all f----- up," Arum told The News. ***8220;First of all, I told them I didn***8217;t want a conference call and they said, ***8216;No, we***8217;ll just have the ***8216;A***8217; journalists on the call.***8217; And there were so many people that (Ed) Keenan, who was supposed to monitor this didn***8217;t get through and the first call is from (expletive) Mike Marley. So I mean, I told them I didn***8217;t want the bloggers on.***8221;

-***8220;First of all the conference calls are ******,***8221; he said. ***8220;What they should do is get a group of five or six writers and talk to Manny. Manny is no good on these calls. Once I heard that the first caller was Mike Marley I knew that they were screwed up. And that***8217;s nothing against Marley but who the (expletive) is the ***8216;Examiner?***8217; Or whatever he said.***8221;
