"May 5 is out for us, it can't happen, because we want to explore the idea of getting a [temporary] stadium/arena up on the streets of Las Vegas that can seat 40,000." - 01/06/12

"I don't know that he's on schedule to start sparring until the beginning of April." - 01/06/12

"[Mayweather] is apparently going to fight Robert Guerrero. Can you believe that. They won't do any business at all." - 01/07/12



hahahaha...man...i dont even know...thanks Barrera....that whole link is pure effing comedy....and the sad part of it is....its all actual quotes from arum...not made up stuff for the purpose of comedy....and its too funny

 

I can't wait to see what's his excuse when pressed about Thurman

 

This has to be one of the funniest posts I've read on ESB in a long time!

 

you people are so gullible i make spelling mistakes time to time its part of the whole game plan ever notice i never bother to correct it

 

Great strategy man. You're very cerebral with your posting tactics.

 

14."Schaefer sent me a new draft of the contract and he says to me that it has to be at the MGM Grand and nowhere else. Why?" - 12/10/09

58."The venue issue is about where it's most remunerate, and because of Manny's popularity with Asian gamblers, it would be at the MGM or Thomas & Mack." - 06/30/10

97."In order to maximize revenues from the fight, you have to have a stadium larger than the MGM Grand which holds 16,500." - 01/11/12


lmfao....unreal

 

40 mil offer was a flat fee.

let me tell you where the 40mil could come from. 4mil theater tickets in the philippines at 12bucks each is 48,000,000.

 

Mayweather ACCUSE Pacquiao being on PEDS.

 

Every time I see a thread like this it makes me wonder how long the kid has watch boxing or if he/she even watches boxing. There was, is, and will always be boxing after Floyd. He fights once a year. Did you miss that foty candidate last weekend?

 

If Pac wanted this fight to happen, it would have happened the 2X Floyd tried to make this fight. Instead we got excuses. Did Pac visit Floyd back in November? NO! Instead we got "I'll fight for free" BS to the public as usual, never any direct contact or real negotiation. Arum and Pac think they're still the top draw and WAITING for Floyd to come begging to them or phone.

 

If u insist...but I doubt it

 

At one when one excuse is being added to the other, I think we can call it by what it is: a duck!

 

boxing will be fine. plenty of good fighters. real fans will stick around.
and less PPV fights which is good for us.

 

I would love to see the US focus on Olympic boxing again. There has been a decent correlation between great olympians and at least a decent pro career.

 

:rofl Quite a few people on this forum who fit into that last part.
