    In the first place why is Arum concerned about this? If Pac picks fighter A, who cares if it tanks? It would be Pac's fault, not Arum.Why can't Arum, just for once, let the guy pick who he wants to fight for his retirement fight without any consideration to all this PPV nonsense?
    Well, if it tanks Bob eats the money. So he should have SOME say. But even though it's probably the easiest fight of the possibilities for Manny, I'd love for the fight to happen.

      This is what we've been saying for years! Everyone blamed Floyd, but it took Floyd having a meeting with Pac and Kountz for the fought to be made! This has been Pac down fall! He lets daddy Bob run him! You can't tell me that Pac vs Broner won't sell! It would probably sell more than Pac vs Crawford as much as I want to see that fight! Boys hate on Al but Bob is killing boxing and has been for years

Anybody that disagrees is just lying to yourself. Khan may have the UK but broner brings the haters and the more haters the more revenue. If broner was a tr fighter this fight would be made.
        How many fans attended Broner's last fight? How many attended Broner's fights against Malignaggi and Maidana? I am just curious to see how many haters Broner can attract and how much revenue he generates.

          Bro he fought Algeri amber Bradley! Neither has a bigger name than Broner! It's all excuses. It's probably the easiest fought too!!!

            More than Bradley and Algeri can bring to the table! I guarantee you that! The only other fighter who might be able to bring more is Khan and that's a harder fight that he might not win. Broner would be low risk high reward!!!

                I think Bradley is actually a bigger name than Broner at this point. The only downer is we've seen Bradley-Pac twice and there really is no need to see it again.

                I think it's going to take a little while for this to play out.

                  And how many were going nuts when maidana whooped broners ass. With people feeling Pac would beat the brakes off ab this fight would draw a large audience just to see Pac ko ab. For the record I don't think Pac could ko broner but as many people that seem to take personal pleasure in maidana beating ab they would jump at the chance to see what they think is a sure thing of it happening again

                      I think the end game for Bob is to have his new young fighter Crawford beat Pac and then begin to build Crawford's name off of that win. If Pac vs Crawford happens best believe I'll be rooting for Pac to beat the brakes off of him and then retire leaving TR without a superstar (Nothing personal towards Crawford).
                      I have no problem with Crawford, but Arum picks Bradley with 100% certainty. Arum is notorious for making useless rematches. I hate rematches. Had Alvarado drew with or beat Rios in their trilogy, Arum would have made a 4th rematch. Took him a year to give up a 5th rematch between Pac and Marquez... Arum would have made Rios vs Pac 2 had Rios beat Bradley... and so on...
