The general consensus on why Pacquiao was robbed

[Wolfie*]

First of all, they are many reasons why Pacquiao could have been robbed in Australia but there is one that makes the most sense. First of all we can all agree that Pacquiao is way past his prime at this point. Me personally, I wish he just retires and stop fighting all together.

The main reason why he was robbed was because of Bob Arum. The reason why was because Manny Pacquiao's people were making it very difficult to make a Terrance Crawford/Pacquiao fight because his people knew that fight would be extremely difficult for Manny at this point. They would rather get fights they knew they would win and collect a check. Now at this point Bob has no incentive to let this go on at this point and from a business stand point why would he?

We all know that Bob is searching for his next PPV star to milk and Terrance Crawford is his main candidate but we all know you need the right platform and that would have been a Manny Pacquiao PPV to launch Crawford into stardom. Since the fight looked like it wasn't going to get made, how can Bob milk this another way?

How about robbing Pacquiao vs joe shmoe and let Terrance Crawford fight him? Bob recently stated his interested in a fight between horn and crawford so this make sense. Do you believe as well this was the main reason why Pacquiao was robbed that night?

That's actually realistic.


And Hectari cursed Manny for real this time

[Floyd is TBE]

He wasn't robbed

Don't be exposing The Bobfather like that!

Where's the proof of this??? Bob never screwed anyone over, ever.

[Larry the boss]

Manny made it clear he was leaving after the Horn fight, so Arum puts in a rematch clause and makes sure he loses. That way in order to get a rematch Manny would have to sign another contract with Arum.

He wasn't robbed

Agreed. I thought Horn won that fight.

Bob's just doing what a promoter is supposed to do. Milk the cow for as long as the milk's good, then once you get near the end of the road you sacrifice him to the young up and comers. Manny had a great run, and The Bobfather helped him by giving him easy match-ups during his peak. Now he's close to getting out the game so he's getting him to lose to his young guns, by hook or by crook. Yeah it's shady but Pac's run at the top was shady too, and promoters have been doing this for decades. Once your big names get old, use their names to build up new names. Just like Pacquiao's name was built by him beating De La Hoya, Mosley etc.

Funny how people are just seeing this now. I've been exposing The Bobfather and his shady ways since 2010. This man is a crook of the highest order...

[Sp0rty Cr@ig]

I don't get how Pacquiao keeps getting robbed against fighters with no fanbase? Isnt it supposed to be the other way around?? no name gets robbed against the superstar fan favorite. Lol

[DeadLikeMe]

How the **** does a superstar get robbed against nobodies like the post above mentions? Beating Pacquiao is a career killer for most because your social media will just become bitter Pacfans threatening to **** and murder your children.

Pac's going to win the rematch alot more convincingly. Horn is going to feel the whole wrath of past time BEAST!
