    Oscar and Shaeffer should stand up then and express their desire to make floyd vs. Pac or Cotto. At least try. Arum knows they won't. Arum knows floyd is a coward in the face of danger.

    So you really think Mayweather is afraid of Pac-man and Cotto. Thats a joke, these are boxing world champions not pre-teens in a school yard. The promoters have to make the fight, not the fighters. Arum got the power to do as he pleases, make the fight regardless of a 50/50 split or black ball Mayweather...which he is doing.

    Floyd is simply afraid of losing his 0...I'm sure he fears no man in the ring but in reality how can there be so many top level fighters in the welter division, where he's been since 06, that Floyd has had nothing to do with.

    I agree with you its up to Floyd....its also up to the Promoters.......before he retired the welterweight division was transitioning and as he retired there were alot of big fights and Cotto became a top contender, Mosley resurrected his career as a top 3 guy and Margarito got finally got a big fight with Cotto, Also Clottey and Berto rose up the ranks. The time is now but Arum is a huge block in the road.

    The only reason for him to want Pac to face JMM instead of Mosley or PBF would be because Pac could demand an 80/20 split like PBF did with JMM and that might be more money that way than a 50/50 with mosley or floyd.


    Cotto fighting in new york makes sense for the puerto ricans. There is no reason PBF couldnt fight in new york.

    However Arum does hate PBF for leaving so I wouldnt be surprised if he tried to make it hard for PBF to get either fight.


    PBF should just fight Mosley. My understanding is the Berto fight aint signed yet..... just ****ing make PBF-Mosley it will be easy for it to happen with PBF free and Mosley under GBP.

    I agree with this. Because PBF is so damn good and I want to see him fight the other top fighters in the division. I hate everybody having to hammer him all the time for avoiding top fighters, but he does.

    Really guys, Arum is no different from King. He just has the better stable right now and he has hate for PBF for leaving his stable.

    until floyd actually gets in there with Cott, Pac, Mosley, WIlliams, he is showing fear, self doubt, reluctance.

    bullies usually fall apart when they fail to intimidate. you have to admit, floyd basically fell apart when Margarito confronted him :0

    Arum disdains floyd for sure, but not hate. the disdain is for the cowardly way bully floyd ducks and dodges and handpicks his way away from danger. Floyd is really a bully.

    who likes a bully?

    No way ! Mayweather just needs to stop ****ing around and give the fans what they want him to do : FIGHT A GUY HIS SIZE THAT'S ON TOP OF HIS DIVISION !!!

    Please see the following thread where votes made it clear that Mayweather doesn't need to deal with Arum to make a great fight :

    If Manny beats Cotto. Why wouldn't he fight Floyd, or why wouldn't he push to fight Floyd? If Manny wants to fight on, why wouldn't he want a $30 million payday rather then a $10-$20 million payday against JMM?

    Because Roach, Arum and Manny all saw the same exact thing. Floyd was bigger, faster, smarter, and better in EVERY category then JMM, and the margin isn't even close. Everything JMM did that troubled Manny, Floyd is gonna do 2-fold.

    If Manny fights Floyd, he gets dismantled. They are gonna do everything possible to avoid that fight.
