Bob Arum: "Mayweather Jr. WON'T Get More Than Pacqiuao"

With all the corruption in boxing that would make things worse.

 

atsch

 

it better do more than 400,000. both floyd and jmm have doubled their exposure sinse pac jmm II and neither one has suffered a setback. if it doesnt sell then the public just doesnt care for these 2 guys.

 

Arum is very bad for the sport! He should retire!

 

I never once said that Floyd should get more. Im saying that if one fighter does get more it shouldnt be Pac, which is what they are asking for...There is no difference in Floyd asking for more and Pac asking for more, that is something that you pac fans are saying.

IF you just look at what is being said from Pac's team you will see that this isnt a fight that they REALLY want to make. Im not going to re-type all the stuff its been done many times. What I dont get is how you cats can say that Floyd is pricing himself out of a fight for 50/50 when that isnt even what Pac's people are saying or wanting. So all this talk of him not wanting 50/50 is bull**** when niether does Pac...

I have said all along that this fight isnt going to happen...Pac may want the fight, but I doubt it..But we know for sure that Roach dont and Arum dont.

 

Arum has really been annoying lately, Roach should pimp slap his ass.

 

Yet another excuse.....Floyd hasnt fought in two years its the reason that Pac fans say he isnt P4P anymore and the reason that he should get the short end of the money in a fight with Pac, but it made him more popular????

Once again the thought process is unreal on this site:huh

 

Bob Arum knows his **** :thumbsup

 

Yep numbers definitely dont lie. If we're simply gonna use that as pure basis for argument then **** this...im done trying to insert logic here. Joe Calzaghe>>>>SRR, numbers dont lie :rofl Thats you Floyd fans favourite words now, "numbers dont lie". Floyd demands 95-5% split, Floyd is the draw, numbers dont lie.

This fight is as 50/50 as it will ever be.

 

you dont think that if Pac fought JMM now after his Hatton/DLH exposure with 24/7 to boot for the lead up it would do more than 425k?

BTW, Do you honestly think that Floyd before he fought Hatton/DLH was as big a draw as he is now??? If he was, Floyd-Gatti wouldn't have draw 325k....

 

not to mention JMM is coming off the two biggest wins of his career. (or two of the three biggest wins depending on how high you rate the MAB win)

 

I don't think Pac should give Mayweather more than 40%. **** who's the bigger draw. Pac is the bigger legend and the better fighter and the king of boxing. So Floyd can talk big game and he brings alot of cash to the table, but Pac doesn't need Floyd. Pac's legacy will still be greater than Mayweather's even if they don't fight. Mayweather can fight Pac or he can go and try to beat all the Mosleys, Cottos, and PW's of this world something that I don't think he's too keen on doing since even at 40% he would be making more $$ against Pac in what is an easier style matchup vs a smaller guy.

On the other hand Pac can go fight the Mosley's and Cotto's of this world and what does he lose? not much even if he gets KTFO everyone will know he was a warrior who stepped up to bigger challenges than anyone since Holyfield and went out on his shield.

 

Yes this is all Floyd's fault:roll:. Nevermind the fact that Arum is saying ANYONE who fights Pac can only get 35% TOPS. Arum isnt even starting off reasonable, what the **** is 35%? AT LEAST start at 40% if you are serious. How is Floyd pircing himself out? You say Floyd is pricing himself out for asking for 60/40 but Arum is doing the right thing by offering 5% less than that.:-(
