Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao-Matthysse Can Happen Later, But Not in April

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

According to Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum, he's open to the idea of staging a fight between Manny Pacquiao and Argentinean puncher Lucas Matthysse - but not in coming future. Last month, Matthysse secured an eight round TKO of Tewa Kiram at The Forum in Los Angeles. With that victory, he captured the 'regular' version of the WBA welterweight title.

This old punk motherfuccer!
How does he know Matthysse isn't ready to go in April or May if he's never contacted Golden Boy promotions about matching Pacquiao against Matthysse..
He should just say he wants to keep all the fights on the ppv in-house since its obvious that's what he's doing

Ol Bob is really ticking my last complete nerves!

No Lomachenko vs Linares

No Pacquiao vs Matthysse

No Wilder vs Parker

No Beterbiev vs anyone solid

Someone needs to spike Bob's tapioca pudding before Top Ranks annual bingo nite "fundraiser"

Too many excuses and the media isn't getting in on his @ss about it!

Didnt Matthysse get a cut in the last fight? I remember also Golden Boy saying that him being ready for a fight like that in mid-April would be very tough.

GB said they would not stand in the way of pac vs lucas. lucas is ready to go, pac is ready to go. the problem is old bob wants to do in house fights only if he can help it. I don't think bob will ever put pac in the ring with a killer like lucas. he is just name dropping as usual. same old tired act from bob.

Nahh
Bob like to name drop good fighters and then at the last minute switch them with his guys... Just like he did with Linares/Beltron.

I'm a Pacman fan but he should have the balls and say no to this LEECH! Arum is saving his ass for Crawford after Horn. I hope he beats Crawford but wishful thinking...

PPV is going to bomb.

Sigh same old ****. Bob looking to keep the same old wack in house fights going. No surprise here
