    Uh Oh, Big News!!!!!!!

    My good friend Bob Arum must have been reading these forums today and read what I wrote. Heres the link if you want to see what I wrote: http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/sh...63#post1639263

    I made a thread talking about how Arum is full of crap and is dumb for not changing the date on the Pac-EM fight. I said that it was obvious that Floyd wont fight in early October for a couple of reasons, and if Arum really wanted the fight the he shouldve either moved the lesser fight of Pac-EM or offer Floyd a fight in December. He has always said that if he gave Floyd a fight in November then it wont be for 8mil because its too close to the Pac PPV date and wont make as much money.

    Now Arum has came strong. ON BT right now he says that he will give Floyd 8mil to fight Margaito on Nov. 4

    Im the biggest fan of all but I ripped him for fighting Bruselses but I wasnt too hard on him because he did try hard to get a Hatton or Cotto fight. Now its happening again. I will back Floyd to the end but if Mosley doesnt want the fight and he turns down this 8 mil then I will lose alot of respect for him.

    Arum has backed him into a corner in a very good move. I have always said that Floyd will end up taking this fight. I dont mind him turning it down for Mosley but anyone else is unacceptable. Spinks is ok but no one wants to see that fight right now and he wouldnt make anything for Baldy. He has to fight Margarito now. That crap he said about Margaito not having a big name doesnt hold water when the money is guaranteed. It only holds money if he can get a big name like Mosley in the ring but it definatly doesnt hold water if he fights Baldy or someone.

    He would be ****** to fight Spinks. I still say that Spinks is a far more dangerous fight for Floyd then Margarito. Floyd has to take this big pay day and silence all the critics/haters

      I dont like the way Floyd is going at Shane either. Obviously fighters do that all the time but he sounds like he's desperate. Like Shane is saying No, and Floyd is getting upset and cant take it. Why would he be desperate when he has this other big fight? He better take that ****ing money or Ill kill him

        Man, I've agreed with you on everything since this situation arose, and the trend continues. Right on point as always, DLT.

          that was a huge turn of events, now mayweather has to respond without any excuses (if in fact they were excuses). It as to be either antonio or shane, anyone else is unaccepable.

          i think that floyd will end up fighting margarito and shane doesnt sem to want to fight him, at least not yet. so if this fight doesn't get made then i will truly be skeptical of mayweather being confident he can beat margarito.

          Can't wait.

            bull **** I don't care who you mayweather spinks bull ****en ****. spinks may be a pure boxer but he does not have the speed of floyd nor punch selection nor movment nore power or skill or endurance or championship experiance. Marg vs floyd natural size and power better work rate, a family to fight for, not as unskilled as we might think, will impose his size on floyd. However I canot pick a winner. Mayweather will brutaly own spinks like he did mitchel. You will see mayweathers most brutal performance agienst spinks because he will never stop punching he will get in the best shape of his life and not loose a round to spinks. Marg on the other hand poses more challanges. Floyd canot ko marg but he can spinks with not to much troble. I will appen in the 7th rounf when spinks blows his load up his own ass.

              Mayweather will not fight spinks, spinks is nothing he will fight marg or mosley. He will fight mosley this year there will be a lot of pressure on mosley. BOTH FIGHTER CAN BEAT MAYWEATHER. BUT MAYWEATHER CAN BEAT THEM TO. Sinks does not have a chance not one chance agienst marg mosley ot floyd.

                Good, I hope the number 1 p4p fighter in this sport makes the right choice and fights either Margarito or Mosley, either fight is going to net him some great money. Arum has folded in Floyds favor which is what he should have been doing in the first place. I want Floyd to put Margarito back where he belongs, in obscurity.

                  Smart move by Arum.
                  However, I dont think Floyd will take the bait just yet.
                  I think he wants to see how the Mosley situation plays out as well as Gatti vs Baldomir this weekend.

                    really the ball is in moseleys court right now.

                    and he is gonna **** floyd mayweather into fighting antonio margarito, no doubt about it. look at it like this, moseley knows that the mayweather fight is still there is he leaves mayweather to fight margarito. if mayweather beats margarito he will obviously then want moseley and will be taking it personally. and moseley probably stands to make more money fighting floyd after he has beaten margarito than he does if he were to fight him now.
