Comments Thread For: Bob Arum Squashes Pacquiao vs. Broner Possibility

[PrBoxing88]

this old bastard should die already, he always blocking the good fights just because he wants more money in his packet, **** ARUM.

[Ray*]

Its too convenient to blame Haymon, for the record...fk Haymon, but lets not ignore how Bob has operated for yrs. We all knew dang well its gonna be Bradley so pac can "get his belt bk"..Mayweathers belt actually

i don't even consider this exposing arum.....anyone with a brain knows this is what happened.

Of course but this idiots all want to blame Haymon for whatever reason, How would anyone claim a Bradley fight would make more financial sense than a Broner fight? Well Arum can...claim that and get away with it.

Just by reading these posts, you can tell that Haymon has the game on smash! No one wants to see Manny fight any of the TR choices more than they want to see Manny fight the Haymon fighters! This is why I hope the PBC becomes a success! Arum and King have to go! Their time has come and gone! Arum has made Manny a lot of money, however he has been a PR nightmare: "needles," "cuts," "stadiums," "contracts," and now this! **** Bob Arum!

Not true. Fans would love to see Pacman vs Crawford. He's a undefeated in his prime top 10 pfp fighter in the world. That is a better fight then broner who has lost twice badly once this year alone. The problem is Manny doesn't want to fight a young lion like Crawford he would rather a easier fight with broner who is tailor made for him because he doesn't punch and is flat footed. The only fight fans don't want to see pacman vs Bradley 3. Not because broner is a bigger draw then either guy because he clearly ain't more a draw then Bradley and it's debateble that he is a bigger draw then crawford who has sold out his home town multiple times and draws double the TV ratings then broner did his last fight on showtime where he couldn't even sell out in his hometown.

People just don't want to see Bradley fight a 3rd time. But Crawford is a fight everyone would like to see except Manny and his team. And the khan fight sells more then Crawford and broner and that's a fight according to khan can be made without haymon. Why is Manny team more interested in Broner then Crawford or khan? Because broner is by far the easiest fight of the 3.

And look at the haymon fighters and the bums he has them fighting on PBC is that really better? I don't think so. Thurman fighting Collazo and Danny fighting Paulie and now washed up Guerrero when those 2 should of fought each other last year.

... Anybody would like to see Pacman vs Crawford... and Pacman vs Broner as well...

Haymon won't put his top in house fighters in the ring and Arum accused of throwing pacman to the Lions by cornering him in to fight crawford. I would take Manny vs crawford hell even vs Bradley again over Thurman vs Collazo BS we get from Haymon. The only beef people have is we already seen Bradley twice no need for a 3rd but he's no bum he's a top 10 p4p and far better opponent then the haymon guys are facing from 140 to 147. If you judged it in a bubble based on what both guys have done lately Bradley is far more deserving of a Manny fight then broner who lost just 6 months ago. He lost to all the good fighters he faced at 140 plus. Bradley has beaten EVERYONE he has ever faced but Manny.

Of course everyone knows he is signed with Haymon but so is khan. Who they were negotiating with without haymon, khans camp confirmed this. My point is they reached out to Broner not haymon for a reason and were likely seeing if Broner would go renagade and negotiate and make a fight without haymon like khan was willing to do. Manny manager confirmed they called Broner and said they were upset he made it public. Likely because they didn't want arum to know but also probably didn't want haymon to know.

I think you are going to far with the bold. They could've simply reached out to see if Broner was interested and gauge his level of interest before contacting Haymon. It is well known that managers, trainers and promoters turn down fights without ever talking to the fighter. Also there is no way legally possible that Broner could go so called renegade.

That's right Bobby, tell the public why Terrence Crawford is such a PPV draw. This guy is such a bad lying POS. Best draw of these "big three" is easily Khan, so by those metrics alone there should be nothing to talk about. Now the REAL big fights out there for Pacquiao are Canelo, Garcia, Brook, Thurman... Those fights would get Pacman something to fight for. Beating Bradley or Crawford would do WHAT for Pacquiao? I could see it now, Pacquiao taking big breaks in camp because he is fighting Bradley or Crawford.. He needs to be sharp and motivated... Crawford and Bradley won't do that for him.

You must not have read my post (or the other posts). What I said was based on the posts on this thread. Most of them say they would rather see Broner than Crawford or Bradley. I know you hate Haymon and the PBC, but how did you feel about Pacquiao vs. Algieri? Why did Bradley side-step Ali for Rios? Why did Pacquiao fight Rios instead of Alvarado, when Alvarado had beaten Rios? Most of these posts hate Arum because they know HE was the block for many fights NOT happening! ARUM SUCKS which is why Oscar, Floyd, Cotto, Rigo, Gamboa, Mikey Garcia, and Chavez Jr. all have/had beef with him! I am rooting for PBC to succeed because I want fights on other networks besides HBO and Showtime. I would think ALL boxing fans would want that too! Garcia vs. Guererro, and Thurman vs. Porter, is a good start for 2016!

If you notice, you've never read something saying "Haymon Squashes Pacquiao vs. Broner," or "Haymon Squashes Pacquiao vs. Khan." You don't see **** like this:

September 16, 2015:

Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum says unbeaten former champion Danny Garcia (31-0, 18KOs) is not an option for Manny Pacquiao's comeback fight in early 2016.

Pacquiao's trainer Freddie Roach is very much in favor of his fighter taking on Garcia and calls it a "very easy" fight for the Filipino star. Roach has Garcia at the top his hit list. Arum has other plans for his fighter.

“No, not Danny Garcia,” Arum told the Philippine Star.
