Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: Manny Pacquiao vs. Kell Brook is Possible

[Heavyfist]

Pac is not facing Brook, anyone who thinks so is a fool.

It'll be an in house TR fighter, obviously.

Unless, theres a rematch. Theres more money in the rematch, still, than in any other fight, by a huge margin.

Not for Arum there isn't. Pacquiao won't be even getting 25% of the split and the fight won't break 2 mil.

you are 100% right

those deals arum offers are pathetic, only a desperate **** wud sign them

They are meant to be the worst deals in boxing. TR fighters are by far the most likely to be unhappy and have a beef with Arum. He's well known to rip off vulnerable fighters.

I mean, look at how many freaking star boxers sue Arum! Always contract disputes. All the time, its insane. Oscar, Haymon, and the other dawgs don't have that problem.

I think it would break 2 million. I think it would get like 2.5. And 25% of that along with a chance to redeem yourself is a more desirable thing to Many than any other fight.

I think that's still probably way more money for Manny than any other fight out there.

Arum does what's best for Arum. In-house fights make Arum the most money because he takes a share of the entire pot not just a share of 25% of the pot, he also has the winner on his books. Pacquiao is going to get fed to Crawford after fighting a couple of weaker opposition. That will help Crawford become a name and make Arum more money in the long run.

Well put....and to be honest from a business standpoint I dont blame him. Why would I make your fighter a star when I can make mine a star? There's nothing wrong with that thinking at this point of Pacquiao's career because EVERY TOP FIGHTER AT 140-147 bout to be after Pacquiao like

[sicko]

Has Bob even mentioned a rematch with Mayweather, sounds to me like he is ready to move on

Haven't heard Roach or Arum say "We Want A Rematch!"

Pacquiao could try and put his foot down and demand the fights he wants, but we all know he hasn't got that in him.

Brook will stop Pac.

Massive welterweight, thudding jab, very good power....yeah, I've got Kell.

They'll most likely make Brook come down like they did with Cotto.

Khans gonna be on suicide watch after hearing this

The winner of last weekend's eliminator is who gets to face Khan.
