This kind of behavior is one of the main reasons why Mr. Mayweather decided to move on with his own career and become vastly successful and make hundreds of millions of dollars on his own," Ellerbe said, alluding to Mayweather leaving Top Rank in 2006 to become his own promoter. "Bob wants to be the focal point of everything and create controversy that doesn't exist." friggin bob.....cant stand to have al and company callin the shots...cant stand they made it this far without him
yeah, blame Bob all you want but look at what's happening. Less than 2 weeks left and media is calling this a fiasco, independent of Bob. Biggest fight in history and tickets not yet available for sale... It's a nightmare if you are someone planning on going. Bob has 50 years of experience and is clever about these things. Whenever he sees that Ellerbe and MGM are trying to shut him out of anything (as the latest draft contract apparently does), he will take it to media to put pressure on them. in the end, all Ellerbe had to do is work things out way earlier with MGM, make tickets for sale way earlier and allow Bob to have a say. Trying to shut him out and delaying ticket sale until last second deserves all the criticism out there, and more.
hey dummy...floyds side and the mgm are calling the shots and running the show here... ole bob went off on the mgm not too long ago calling them names because they had posters up of floyds fight against maidana and he was whining and crying .......the mgm could care less about arum....arum signed an agreement and now he doesnt like how its going so he wants to cry.....the fight will go on and the arena will be full ....unless of course bob tries to back out.....bob need not worry abuot how the mgm and al are handling their business
again, Ellerbe could've avoided this easily but he didn't. Don't listen to me, go listen to the multitude of media people calling this a nightmare and unprecedented. Of course, you will fine any way to defend Ellerbe...
Are you stuck on stupid or something? THE REASON THERE ARE NO TICKETS IS BECAUSE BOB ARUM DID NOT SIGN THE MGM CONTRACT YOU MORON. Do you even read the articles or just look for the comments that fit your narrow minded idiotic view? Oh wait, nevermind. I'm responding to Typhoon. You ARE stuck on stupid.....
