I don't think Arum is 100% to blame here, even as much as I hate that sob. Loma could get the fight with Garcia if he really wanted it. Loma knows that beating a 37 yr old Beltran, who has 7 losses for a belt will be much easier than a prime Garcia freshly off a big win at 135. Better to take on Mikey next year after he gets beat up at welterweight, and has to cut back down and is damaged goods. (I think Mikey will give a better account of himself than most think vs Spence)
Arum and Pacquiao played the game, each saying it was up to the other who they want fight next when it was convenient. Promoters work for the boxers, not the other way around. Some are just better at convincing them who to fight, and have ways to prevent the ones they don't want.
