    Arum isn't shopping for bids. Stop lying to yourself.

    Did you read the entire sentence of what you stole from a wikipedia article or not? The President sponsored the fight to keep his head intact and his country from burning to the ground by protesters not too happy about the martial law. That's a pretty big and immediate profit incentive for him. He might not have gotten the money back, but not getting killed is pretty important to him as well.

    So what in the mind of these secret group of investors that nobody knows but Bob Arum is there reason for doing this? Are these the guys from Singapore again? Who don't have any names, like this current group and only talk to Bob Arum, because I guess GBP and Mayweather Promotions are unlisted numbers. So why would they do this? if they actually exist, and that is to make money.

    Okay, if the fight is guaranteed to make $150 Million dollars from your calculations.

    So as GBP/TR:
    Why, would I give a dime of it up to some third party for absolutely no help. I wouldn't trade a dollar for a penny, so why would I trade a any portion of my profits over to someone when I don't need them at all? All they are going to do is suck money out of it when its all said and done. All That I'm operating as is a glorified savings account then.

    Face it kid, nobody would offer that amount of money for any other reason to take a chunk out of the promotion on the back end, which by the way is already financed well enough that they don't need the new capital.

    Aside from the investors, something else isn't right. Does Arum expect the Mayweathers to negotiate this fight themselves? No Haymon, no GBP and no Ellerbe :bart. FOH with that Arum.

    Correct:deal

    This fight is a MEGA global affair & not just for small planet america, they'll be plenty of financial titans from the far east & middle east who'll haev an eye for this venture. Just go back to 1974 when Ali/Foreman had to go to ZAIRE as that was the only country that guaranteed the mega purses of the day as america could'nt afford that fight.

    You've got an Oil Arab whose just dumped in over one & a half BILLION $$$$$ in 2 years buying & funding his new soccer toy in Manchester City:yikes

    No way can the MGM or anyone stateside compete with the far east financial conglomorates:bart they own america for **** sake:lol:

    If Floyd wants a $50MILLION+PACS guarantee then this fight ai'nt taking place in Vegas:deal & floyd would even want a % of the PPv.

    No promotors or banks stateside are going to underwrite this event without $$$ secured asset guarantees & that ai'nt gonna happen as the promotors are then just the bit players. Who upfronts the $$$$ calls the shots on the when & where's of who gets what & when.

    No Homie IN America Thats Not How it Works!!!!! Let me Break it down again for you Maybe u can Understand!!!!

    A Sponsor Say "Corona" pay so their Ads Can Been Seen on Fight Night (More Buyers of their Product That will be there only Return for from the Fight) They dont get Paid from the Event

    Now An Investor Say" I'm a Party Promoter And I don't have enough Money to Rent out the Club to have the Party" the investor give me When I need to Throw the Party and they will get their Money back With Interest on it!!!!

    Get it Now?? Big F...ucking Difference!!!!!

    Anyone Who think that Vegas Will allow this Fight Now to Happen There is Out of Their Mind and Have No Knowledge Of Boxing!!!!!!

    Rite now everything for Boxing Happens in Vegas It use to be NYC at MSG...But its all bout MGM and Vegas
    This Fight wont Happen no where Else!!!!!

    If these Big Oil Mofo's had all this money to Throw at Arum We all know Arum is all about the Money He would have Manny Fighting in Those Countries already!!!!!!
    Stop taking Arum-a Known Liar Words and running with them!!!!!!
