There ya go. Took all of 45 seconds to find on Google. Apparently Pacquiao didn't need a warning at all, because he hired VisionQwest after suspecting that Arum was robbing him.

the title says it was pac who thinks he's being robbed. not Floyd warning him about it but let me read it all

VISIONQWEST REVEALS PACQUIAO BELIEVED ARUM WAS HIDING MONEY, FINANCIAL RECORDS IN DISARRAY AND KONCZ WORKING FOR TOP RANK

reading the whole article.....done

i think you need a lot more than 45 seconds to prove your point.

none in the article says Floyd warned Pac about arum

reading the whole article.....

Not once did I say Mayweather warned Pacquiao of anything. I said "Mayweather points out that Pacquiao has been getting robbed..."

Even in my second comment I noted that Pacquiao became su****ious himself. You're trying to argue something with me that I never even said :/

Reading the whole comment(s)...

calm down

I asked when was this for years exactly

and was the statement really in a form of a warning?

then you provided a link that does not answer my question.

provide me a link where Floyd was actually warning Pac about arum

"Mayweather points out that Pacquiao has been getting robbed for years..." means that Mayweather points out that Manny has been getting robbed for a period of several years, not that he's been saying for years that Manny has been getting robbed. Instead of reading the article, and using common sense to deduce what I meant, you tried to go into a semantics battle about absolutely nothing.

I never said that Mayweather warned Pacquiao of anything, and I never said that Mayweather has been saying for years that Pacquiao has been getting robbed by Arum. As such, I'm not providing proof of anything, except what my original comment stated. Mayweather pointed out that Pacquiao had been getting robbed for years, and apparently Manny shared the same sentiment.

The short version of this is Ariza is extremely worried that Manny Pacquiao isn't too greedy enough like floyd or other superstar out there who's too worried about their value. This man is getting his fucckking 20m minimum every fight and he himself stated again and again that he started from a humble beginning at the bottom of the dammnn earth as being a homeless guy who struggled throughout his life before he found boxing.

Is he being shortchanged by Arum probably yeah, I think deep inside he knows that too, but i think the way manny pacquiao thinks is that, Arum has brought him up this far and he's getting enough millions in his pockets (remember the dollar exchange in his country is way bigger so a 10 million is probably 4 or 5x the actual worth over there.)

You see guys, not everyone is supposed to be as greedy as fucckk, some are just willing to take the short end of the stick, as long as they believed they are getting enough for their share it's enough for them. Also, pacquiao probably considers what Arum has done for his career throughout the years, for him that thing is a very big deal, it's a form of currency for him, that sense of gratitude.

Koncz is that you???

I believe Ariza in this case because...Floyd knows how to count, and prides himself on his ability to count. Floyd would be very aware of what pac took in, if for no other reason, initially, to make sure he was getting the lion's share.

Floyd also knows about crooked bob and its really no secret that Arum is a piece of garbage that is taking pac to the cleaners, as has been his MO for years. Many Black posters have stated that when discussing Don king, Arum seems to get a pass and in this case? they might have a point.

Read between the lines. Arum has something over Pacman. It could be a misplaced sense of loyalty, who knows? But the tax scandal? the other happenings with Arum? the reason Floyd left Arum? Arum is crooked as crooked can be.

Yes Ariza is a **** stirrer, but that does not mean that there is not real **** to be stirred and this sounds real to me.

sorry my bad. i mixed you up with someone else's post about warning Pac

apologies

Arum has dirt on Manny. It's simply quiet extortion. Everyone knew Manny was juicing. Notice how that story about the financial agencies looking into discrepancies involving Manny's finances just...went away? It was more clear to me when Manny allowed his Top Rank contract to expire in 09 and Floyd said in the press loudly that the fight could be made if Manny didn't resign his Top Rank deal. The fact that Manny let it expire, MEANT that Manny was considering leaving Top Rank. Then ARUM flew to Manila, and two days later, Manny resigned with Top Rank....now you tell me what happened.

Smart move by Floyd

Floyd letting Pac know he still can continue to get paid and make a lot more money with him than with Arum. Arum hates that Al Haymon is paying fighters what they are worth.

[Fetta]

I have pretty much felt this way for years too. Ever since the visionquest fiasco but Pac is a "mongo" type guy. Not very smart and way to trusting.

but oh well. He deserves the money for being the person that brought it in but he wont get it.
