    Apparently Bob Arum is already thinking about making this match in the summer and is considering the Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford NJ. He is really going to milk all his fighters for every penny and keep things in house from the looks of it. This means we won't see a Pac/PBF match until later in the year if at all.

    arum is going to do everything he can to get the most out of his ageing stable, and that means double dipping with them all

    **** Arum. Now he is just trying to milk his fighters the most he can and keep all the money in the Top Rank house.

    This just maybe to take Mayweather's option on waiting for Pac rather than fighting Mosley.

    Why the **** wouldn't he look at Texas again as it makes more sense due to Pac already headlining there now (with Margarito on undercard) and Margarito's fan base being based down that way?

    Seems stupid to me doing it on the East Coast??

    It's the end of the road for Arum so he's getting all of was worth now. He's not thinking about the future, he doesn't have much of a future.

    If Arum is serious then Margarito better think about fighting a Judah, Collazo or Quintana instead of Carson Jones for his next fight. Arum has just about used up Cotto and I think Margarito is next.

    He also mentioned that New York & New Jersey has a huge Filipino population. I personally think the fight is better served in Nevada or California with Margo's big mexican fanbase.

    I like this fight. What's not to like? If your looking for all the spectacle in a fight, this is it.

    obviously, this fight is easier to make and Arum does not have to go through Floyd's bull**** and spare us fans of unnecessary charade.

    Arum, please make this fight happen!

    Arum must feel he can bank more off margarito than he can off pacquiao. There is absolutely no way pacquiao wins that fight
