I'm not one to defend Arum on anything...
but if you're a promoter and you are trying to build a guy as a credible young fighter in the division, it probably doesn't hurt to throw his name around as much as possible just to get it familiar with people in the media. I doubt he has any real intention of having him fight Manny anytime soon. Just plugging and name dropping some of his fighters at welter is all I see in this.
