Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao, Mayweather No Longer Elite - It's a Money Grab

After the major letdown of their first fight, they'd be lucky to get 250K buys for the rematch. They may be able to get it from what's left of the Pacquiao fans, because they sure as hell ain't getting it from the Floyd fans.

Yeah yeah, I think Bob would be happily involved if he could. I know I would.

[Redd Foxx]

He could have though. When the announcement was made last month bob came out right away and said “I want nothing to do with the fight”

If bob wanted his piece he would have at least made an attempt

^Truth. Bob is pretty awful but I'll give him credit, the dude isn't being anything but truthful here. Those two are done at the top and this is simply a profitable fight because there's enough people who feel this fight matters enough to spend money on. It does nothing for the sport.

I think this draws two types of people;
-embittered Pac fans starving to see him get a win over May.
-casuals who know the names and think this is a good fight.

There'll of course be those who buy anything Mayweather sells (many of whom fall into the 2nd category) but I think the main interest can be defined by the two types above.

1. ARUM is full of shiiit!!! If he could make this fight he would.

2. This fight does 1.5 mil PPV respectfully even with FLOYD damn near 42.

3. FLOYD is an idiot for fighting again.

I hope this fight doesn't take place.

Yea, that was the first one I listed.

[Southpawology]

arum is bitter his cash cow of 10+ years left him

[KingTito]

He’s right, but he would definitely be a part of the fight if he could.

[Zodogg]

Who cares what BOB thinks he sounds like a scorned ex....oh he is....their ex-promoter the cross dresser will speak negative next

[IceTrayDaGang]

yeah because your biiatchazz was playing games when this fight actually matters.
