      Arum said he's gonna have to fight him eventually. The longer he delays the better Crawford gets and the older Pac gets.

        Was that the day Arum was telling the truth or the alternating non-truth day though?

          I mean, who else is he gonna fight? He's down to Ricky Burns or Jeff Horn He's gotta fight him because we know Arum ain't putting Pac in there with a PBC fighter

They think going thru the media to spread their propaganda is still the way to go. It's a different time now. They can't adjust.
            Good Point! Somebody need to remind Arum of that lol

            I think he LIED to Pacquiao Team to get him to take the Jeff Horn fight which Arum been talking about more than Crawford vs Pacquiao after coming back from the Parker vs Ruiz fight!

              If it's in his contract why would he accept less? Arum seems to realize Pacquiao can't cash his guarantee though, so is giving him sht fighters so Pacquiao takes the cut.

                My philosophy is the most unwanted thing that is really unlikely to happen is far more likely than the most wanted thing that is really unlikely. I don't know what I'm saying. I'm going to sleep. You probably just gave me nightmares.

                  Pay the man his damn $20 mill.. Manny is past his prime, he has no obligation to take on a young prime slick mofo like Bud Crawford. no matter what happens in that fight, Manny's legacy is sealed. that's a risk he'll be taking strictly for the fans because he's already in the HOF. he deserves the money he's asking for. .

                  it's kinda like Floyd taking on Lara at 154.. a stylistic nightmare. little reward, high risk. Floyd's fans would also say he has nothing left to prove, and I agree.

                  Bud's style would give Manny big problems.
