C'mon. You know deep down Floyd would rather not fight Pacquiao.

    The only fight he was contracted for was ODLH at 147! What the hell! You just glossed right over Margarito derailing his career and not rematching. Classic!

    Don't give me that "in house" crap when he did everything in his power to fight Pac before. If the terms were so onerous not to fight, why agree now?

    No. Arum is more of a snake than most.

    Right... Pac is a fraud man. Sorry.

    Except sign the contract that was offered to him???


    He's a ****ing coward. A cherry picking, 0 protecting coward.

    If he was doing everything in his power he would have said "**** 24 days, I don't need drug tests to whip your punk ass, you're easier to beat than marquez"

    He thinks he is selling his 0 to arum and pac... he's a ****ing COWARD.

    A money grubbing weasel who thinks if he loses a fight he has no more marketing campaign.

    He's a sad excuse for a prize fighter.

    No he offered him a DUAL contract to fight Margarito AND Cotto, but stipulated that he would get LESS to fight Cotto. How does that work? You fight the "money" guy for less? WTF?

    I guess that is Arum math. Only Arum and people like Luke understand it.

    :lol: How can you sign the contract when you are contracted to fight?

    Just be a hater. Doesn't change the fact that Arum ran Cotto into the mud. You still don't seem to understand the true depth of that man's evil.

    No. He just wants a fair fight. Funny how Pac won't deliver it and get this money. Losing his "0" would be epic and the rematch would be "epicer" and the trilogy to settle it all would be the "epiceresterer" than any fight EVER.

    You just can't see the forest for the trees.

    here is the boxing world I live in....

    2 really good fighters are in the same weight class, I want to spend my money to watch them fight.

    here is the boxing world you live in....

    Purse splits are more important to me than match ups... I am fine not seeing a fight if fighter a feels like he isn't getting the better deal. I would rather not even see him fight than only make 70 million dollars in a fight I actually like.

    The problem is that if he had you as his manager he would have fought for a total of less than 16 million. The way he did it he fought more meaningful fights and more than quadrupaled that.

    How much reality must smack you in the face before you say, "Damn. I don't know what the hell I am talking about. :think"

    You're selling boxing down the river to WWE territory.... Floyd is the equivalent of a guy like hulk hogan who refuses to put over other wrestlers so he can monopolize the top spot and get the biggest paydays.

    Even though he is not delivering on exciting fights and he is only successful when his challenge is credible.

    Floyd wants boxing to be a staged WWE extravaganza where he is the mythical super hero and everyone else is just under the glass ceiling he created.

    Boxing is not WWE. It's on the fighters to back up their claims and establish their value.

    No. The world I live in is driven by market forces. Offer someone a BS deal and don't expect it to get the product.

    I want to see that fraud destroyed so bad I can taste it. Problem is that I know that the Arum propaganda and media manipulation machine is far to complicated to let that gravy train stop. I also know that you guys are far to ignorant to see it for what it is.

    So will you PLEASE come out and pan this Margarito BS? Margarito ain't at WW and he got KTFO by Mosley! And you think Mayweather is a joke? :rofl

    Floyd is so good at manipulating stupid people into thinking he is god, that he has a GROWN MAN on the internet defending his claim that he should be making 80 million dollars to fight someone instead of 70.

    A grown ****ing man acquiescing to a whiny coward who acts like a 13 year old.

    You're disgraceful. Why do you even watch boxing?

    I don't think he gives a **** who he fights to be honest. Alot of people think that these fighters think like normal people do. They don't! You do not get to the top of any sport without confidence, I mean 100% confidence in your game....especially not guys like Floyd and Manny, who are Mega Stars and all time great fighters.

    Whether Floyd can, can't, will eat leather in the process, or anything else does not matter....because in his head, I'm pretty damn sure that he plays the fight out with him dominating Pacman.

    Ever wonder why elite fighters, athletes, give so many wierd excuses? Sometimes it may be just to save face, but the majority it is them ACTUALLY and HONESTLY trying to justify their bad performance in their own heads......because they are so confident. I'll tell you what, when you see an "elite" or "top" fighter lose a fight, and not say he would win the rematch.....it's time to start questioning that guys place in the sport anymore. :deal

    So, NO I don't admit that "I know" deep down Floyd would rather not fight Pacquaio. I DO think he would rather not deal with Arum though :deal

    Luke you are really losing it. Is your blood sugar low?

    How in the hell can you say that when Arum is now setting up Pac to fight a recently KTFO fighter who can't even get a license in the States due to being caught cheating. :patsch:lol:

    Sweet Lord have mercy! :yep
