arum & roach have been doing this for pacquiao's past 3-4 fights.... this is joke I just don't want everyone to get caught up in arum "claiming" he 'tried' to reach out to floyd which is clearly some bull****... if you were arum what would you rather do? put pacquiao in the ring with floyd in what is probably a 50-50 fight or put pacquiao in the ring with shane in what is probably a 80-20 fight
Arum doesn't want Pac in the ring with Mayweather unless it's Pac's last fight or he has some sort of cut on future Mayweather fights. He has a promotion option on Mosley if he wins the Pac fight
well the problem with your theory is that floyd can come out anytime and say that he wants pacquiao. and if arum still proceeded with pac-mosley then we can all say that he doesn't really want pac fighting floyd. until then, floyd is nowhere to be found and still missing his urge.
It's not, that's the funny thing. Arum is fantastic at spinning; look at the Pac-Margo fight for Christ's sake. Mayweather started to promote the Pac fight for 3/13 and then Pacquiao pulled out at the last minute after deciding that he didn't want the drug testing that he had previously agreed to. From there, Arum went in full spin mode and has spent the last year trying to ruin Floyd's rep. Arum does not want his baby who he has spent years building up losing to his arch-nemesis. Arum is more than happy to make Clottey, Margo and Shane over the Mayweather fight. How anyone can even refute this is mind boggling. :verysad
arum, haymon and greenburg was almost done with the terms but floyd suddenly took a vacation. even when arum then was trying to replace floyd with margo, pac didn't signed up immeadiately since he is waiting for floyd if he still wants the fight. floyd can still say that he wants to fight pacquiao now and expose arum. but where is he?
I am also glad that people are seeing what type of devil Bob arum is! Bob arum is the type of dude that makes cnn rick sanchez look like a prophet. I seriously hope that Golden boy promtions takes over a decent chunk of boxing.
What happened on 3/13 puga? All you guys have to hang your hat on is Mayweather's "vacation" while trying to deflect the fact that Manny is carefully cherrypicking opponents more than Mayweather would ever dream of. Mayweather fights guys who deserve big fights based on great recent performances in the ring. There was a good thread yesterday clearly showing this. Pac's wizard of oz curtain is finally being pulled back and I don't know what took so long.
first negotiations, they simply could not agree with the cutoff dates. arum moved-on and kept the 3/13 fight date. 2nd negotiations, you have to agree that it was almost a done deal when floyd lose interest and even ellerbe and schaeffer were trying to cover on floyd by saying there were no negotiations. floyd choosing jmm at welterweight is the biggest cherry-pick i could think of and not even pac picking mosley would rival that.
Im with you:good. End of the day *******s can talk but if their man had taken the drug tests the fight would have happened. Pacquiao has NEVER agreed to full random testing so Floyd hasnt ducked ****. And iv NEVER EVER hear Pacquiao come out and say...I WANT MAYWEATHER NEXT
truth is... nobody on ESB really knows what the f**ks goin on! :deal 2 things are certain though... floyd is staying silent because he has bigger problems outside of boxing right now. anyone who disputes this or says its because hes scared can f**k right off!!! pacquiao meanwhile is fighting fighters who looked god awful in their last fight (cotto, margarito, clottey, mosley)!!! ...lets just see what happens with Floyds lawsuit first then we can get back to the whole *******s vs *****s debate!!! :deal
No matter what these *****S say, bottom line, their boy put up roadblocks that he's never put up before based on what some crackhead said. Their boy went on a rant and from his VERY OWN MOUTH stated that he DOESNT HAVE THE URGE. Pac fighting Mosley isn't exactly what us fans want but NO WAY does it change the fact that PBF ducked the midget. It's amusing how these *****S are trying to spin this **** around.
