    Sean Gibbons, President of MP Promotions (Pac) responds to Arum about Crawford fight




    So, there it is.

    Let's stop buying into the nonsense from Arum, BoMac and Crawford that a Manny fight was "close". It wasn't and isn't.

    So, we're right back to square one. And Arum is actually looking at 140 guys coming up.

    So let's get Virgil Ortiz in there, he's not PBC. You can make that fight.

    Arum is telling the story, where do you think TC and Bomac get their information from, Bob did the same thing to Manny , he had no idea Floyd was pushing for the fight because Arum told him different, now he telling TC the same stories.

    Go to PBC Bud and you will get the big name guys, Arum will only keep you as a mushroom, in the dark and fed BS.

        when did floyd push for the fight? he changed his own demands over and over. thats called caught bluffing. its the drug testing! no wait its the money! pac you only get a flat fee of 40 million oh im pushing so hard! remember it was showtime who pushed flod into the fight because his ppvs were losing so much money. crawford already turned down pac and a fair purse so whats left for arum to do? gotta just move on to other fights.

          Where do you want to start, agreeing to ALL Mannys terms .

          How about the personal phone call offering Manny more cash than he has ever earned to be in his back with in 24hrs just sign the contract.

          Or finally approaching Manny in person to actually make the fight, it was here that Manny became aware of how much Floyd was doing over the years to make the fight, he said he was not aware of what went on other than from Arum had told him.

          Arum has been telling his fighters BS for years and years, they all leave him because they wise up to his BS.

              Yes. Immediately after Arum and Crawford said that negotiations were close.

                  As B-Side? Yes.

                  And by the way, that's exactly what Manny did in late 2014. AFTER he'd been knocked out and lost leverage.

                  Which is why B-Sides should not try to play chicken with A-Sides.

                    you are funny mate. your so called A-side timed pac by 5 yrs late.. waiting game? so where did floyd got his confidence? after the marquez fight... clown.

                    i don't see how pacman lost leverage when all of the top WW is calling him out even in the lower weights.

                    EDIT: May wanted all the advantages possible. it's like calling a sword fight but bringing up a gun.. so coward.
