    I think you're getting it mixed up there, Arum is the one who's making the decisions, Pac is the one saying he doesn't care.

    there was once a slick thai fighter who was a lineal champ and great counter puncher.

    He was schooling the 1 armed left bandit teen pac until pac turned the tide into the second half

    and chased him with no respect and shoot him with a straight left on the throat. he

    crawled on the floor and got KTFO. youtube him. his name is sasakul.

    He may not be mayweather, but counterpunchers and runners are over rated once

    they feel the power they cover themselves like a *** (ala corley, ortiz and judah on

    floyd) or hug like a child ( ala floyd on mosley )

    there is a reason why floyd is asking all this OST bullshyt on pac and did not ask his

    40 previous opponents. he fears pac. just like his dad. "son, don't fight that guy, I am

    scared for your health "


    :yep:yep

    pacquiao has been training since 2009 in the philippines for the first half of his training camp. it is due to some tax issues. what are you talking about?

    Though if Floyd starts coming out with something as ludicrous as "Pac can't train in the Philippines" I'll take back everything I said about Arum

    Its easy for them to put the full blame on the opposite side, I think its best for us fans to keep a clear head and review situation as objective as possible, which is, I have to admit very difficult to do.
    That list of opponents bradley,jones,rios Arum at this point is lining them up as future opponents.
    If everything goes how it should there doesnt have to be a problem when pac and floyd fight in may.
    The problem is Pac is being controlled by Arum and to many people speak on his behalf causing a lot of confusion.
    I dont think manny fears Floyd and I have seen him say that testing isnt an issue anymore, if thats true he has no reason to not fight floyd if he beats marquez.
    On the other hand floyd is his own man but he is contradicting himself often and seems more occupied with hating on manny to prove he doesnt deserve to be on the same stage as him and therefore doesnt have to fight him.
    I dont know why he is so hesitant on making the fight, I just hope that after November 12 he is available and willing to negotiate and make the fight happen.
    I think its already a few years to late and its damage control from this point, but since they are both still winning the demand for the fight is still there.

    Arum is just pissed that Mayweather left him and has gone on to be so much more successful without him.

    Well, by 2012 it'll hit 2 years so yeah it enters the category of "few" but I agree its starting to become more damage control than anything, not that Floyd nor Arum care much about that

    Roach has openly stated he does NOT like going to the Phillipines to train Pac because of all the distractions. He has stated this on video and in print, it is a known fact.

    Im not saying Pac should always train in America, but for a fight of this magnitude, and the amount of concentration it deserves, would it not serve Pac (and satisfy his trainer) to train at the Wild card the whole time?

    In any event, Arum will never make this fight. He just wants to use Pac and defame Floyd for leaving him and becoming successful.

    now you want to make pac's itinerary for him? seriously, you're seeing one side and one side alone. where and how long pac trains is his own. you are actually claiming to know what would best suit for pac as to the location.

    i agree arum is a shitbag and should not be trusted

    :deal

    Either that or have it as Pac's last fight of the contract, as more of a use em n boot em. But more likely the former

    Pacquiao should be able to train wherever he wants. If Mayweather is serious about the testing, and Pacquiao is serious about taking the test, then they should be able to work it out. Mayweather has not demanded that Pacquiao do all of his training in America. But if did demand that, he would be in the wrong.

    People will believe anything, lying lawyer sack of ****. Arum is milking Manny and keeping all the money in house. They probably will never fight, I'd rather see Khan or Martinez v. Mayweather.

    Arum says they agreed to full testing during the first negotiations...you're saying you believe that? I mean are you being serious, or just trolling, because surely you see the man is full of ****...
