    1) Resign with Arum

    2) Go with Oscar

    3) Perhaps Goosen or other promoter

    4) Go on his own

    5) Retire

    6) other

    Well?

    resign with Arum , he made him the 2 biggest earner in the sport.

    I have no doubt that is what he will do.

    Arum is great at making stars but I think he is holding him back at this point like he did with both Oscar and Floyd . . . his best move is to make a move. I think he should go his own direction and start developing talent in the Philippines.

    Pac has no idea how to promote.

    And bear in mind that Oscar took a big risk- and basically hired a guy just like arum to run his company and Floyd is a golden boy fighter no matter what he tells you.

    Arum has had the top stars on his schedule for over 40 years.

    You know why ?

    Because it works and hes a shrewd business man and lawyer. He knows what hes doing.

    Thats why Oscar and Floyd worked with him for so many years.

    Stay with Arum. Forget about Floyd's demands, the fight isn't going to happen anyway. Besides at this point in his career he's a loss away from gatekeeper status

    Bob is great at making stars but oscar and Floyd left because he could not advance their careers any farther. Oscar had no idea how to rum a company but he surrounded himself by people who did. I think if manny went on his own he could boxing in the Far East to a whole new level.

    Sorry but anyone who says he should stay with Arum is a frickin' idiot.

    At first I thought he should go it on his own and be a free agent, but Manny is as dumb as a box of rocks when it comes to the business side of boxing. Who's he gonna rely on? Koncz? The same guy who is partially responsible for Manny being in debt with the IRS? No thanks.

    Best to jump ship to Golden Boy. They've got a deep stable of fighters he hasn't fought. That will help drum up some interest and get his big money-making ways back on track. And with Arum out of the picture the chances of a matchup with Floyd raises greatly.

    Unfortunately for Pac his career has been tainted when he walked away from the fight in 09 on the advise of Arum. Arum's stable is very limited right now and the only "big" fight they can talk about now is Mikey . . . which is a joke.
