    If I were TC Id leave just like Oscar Floyd and Cotto did.
    hWhy should it be private.WHo are YOU that you should be the decider what Arum should say or not say... Stop digging yourself deeper into it, or you'll reach Australia and have to fly back home.. He's a very famous promoter, he is always cornered and asked 100 questions, and has no reason not to answer this one. He is very frustrated with Crawford, knwoing he's so good but such a hopeless crowd drawer.

    And as I've pointed out before, and as have others, he does not run Top Rank since 2004 . His step-son LeBoeuf is the boss. Arum has lived in Vegas for so many years, been a main centre of attention during all that time, so he loves the chit-chat that goes with it all. So he's asked questions, So he gives answers. What do you care what he says, it does you no damage. You are free to chose whether you believe him or not. But it's cowardly to degrade an old man behind his back the way you do. Me, I think it's great that so old a man is still so active and with all his very sharp marbles. Very many of the greatest fights in history have been organized by him. He was Ali's promoter from many years, and Hagler's only lifetime promoter, without even a contract -except a handshake. .

    That's all I'm saying on this. Talking to you is like talking to the wall. Believ what you want but don't bother me with it.

      So peace out brother I just reading where Leon Spinks died at 67, thats my territory Id rather enjoy being here than arguing, and besides where I sit now at 8pm its as hot as hades and I dont feel like arguing a difference of opinion . All good.
      That's a very nice, fine post and I totally agree. W eoriginally had some sharp words but got to know one another better and became peaceful. Now you just stopped the same thing happening all over. Thank you.

        As I said with Leon dying at 67 that reflection made me feel privileged to be here which took all the fight right out of me, we not always right and we easily find ourselves defending things way above there worth and high blood pressure is the only winner lol.

To the extent,that he appealed to former Judge Daniel Weinstein who tried to mediate. He wasted a lot of time over it.

          Another time, verything was agreed, and there ws a meeting at which everybody showed up but Mayweather. The mediator then was Russ Greenburg the HBO chief. He issued a statement after, saying thet the fault was entirely Mayweather's who didn't even turn up.

          So... PULLEAZZE.. stop taking about what you don't really have the facts on. I don't literally mean to stop talking, you're a free man, but to verify your facts before you deal with me. Otherwise I'll just correct you. Because I kNOW. else I wouldn't put it in writing.

          You should know too,because it was all published on BoxingScene, where I get most of my information. I just happen to have a very good memory. I've said this before.

          ****Incidentally Judge Weinstein was appealed to because it was he, who arbitrated the original mish-mash that Oscar tried to involve MannyP in, when he dragged him to a meal after his 16 hour flight,and badgered him for 2 1/2 hours to sign with Golden Balls. He kept pushing the paper and pen to the yawning MannyP, who just a often pushed it away, but finally, knowing it would not be valid, as he was signed with Top Rank, and wanting to get away from Oscar, to go to bed, he signed****.
          Why are you crying like a damn female?

          You posted all that garbage just to say nothing. Stfu please.

              I hope we get this fight and Spence Ugas, and the winners unify for all 4 belts. That would be sick. Boxing is in shambles right now. Fans are like junkies waiting for a fix.

              Ryan needs to fight Tank and leave Manny alone, Manny will end his career

                First it's "Crawford wants belts, that's why he won't fight Porter"

                But we're supposed to believe that he'll fight Manny who has no belt.

                Ok
                Porter was offered a fight.

                Spence and Ugas have the belts now and they supposed to be fighting each other.

                If Crawford fights Pac then he is facing somebody who is very relevant in the division as has just held a title unlike Porter and didn't even lose it in the ring.

                I think the WBA should give Pac his belt back if this fight is made.

                    crawford already priced himself out TWICE from a pac fight. will he make it a third? is arum willing to waste more money on crawford AGAIN???????????????

                    crawford is not profitable fighter. he needs to bring his ego and price down if he wants a shot at grandpa legend pac. FACT.

                      people and their deductive reasoning. their brains have turned to mush from floyd propaganda. hy are you acting like manny doenst want to fight crawford when he already offered crawford a career high payday and crawford turned it down so why is it so hard to believe manny would fight him? manny isnt a coward like floyd. that doesnt mean hes perfect but he actually tries to make fights, but the thing that you shold have learned by now is that it takes two to tango. i think crawford would win and i think manny knows he would be in for a tough fight but if the money is right then hey lets do it, unlike floyd who turns down career paydays to fight bums like sharmba to preserve his shiny little record for his sycophants. floyd is actually very smart when it comes to game theory. 7 million for marg or 3 for sharmba? well i have a 100 percent chance of winning against sharmba and maybe 65 against marg. ill take the sharmba fight and move on from there preserving my future earnings. if i lose to marg my ROI falls dramatically so i have to take the sure thing. cowardly of course but smart.
