Bob Arum: "Marquez' demands ($5M) offended Pac, killed fight" - yet pays Mosley $7M+

Because JMM can't sell his own fight that is why.

I hate the Mosley vs Pac fight. That is no secret. I am hoping that it sells like sh!t. I hope Filipinos go to work the night of the fight.

BUT the reality is, JMM can't sell his own fight to his family members, let alone the general public. vs PBF, vs Kat, vs anybody he does poorly.
vs PBF it did pretty well but be honest here, that is because of PBF and they got a 24/7 HBO show. But ask GBP how that did to GBP bottom line. ****!! It paid PBF very well. It paid JMM very well. It did NOT pay GBP very well. They where barely above the black.


So yeah, that is why Mosley got the money and JMM did not.

 

the first time, they could not settle with the cut-off dates. the 2nd time, negotiation was going fine with arum, haymon and greenburg when all of a sudden, floyd took a vacation leaving his promoter GBP alone.

 

So i guess has nothing to do with Mosley looking completely shot?

 

Its funny, where are those people saying Pac never fights a black american...yet a lot of these people now wants him to fight a mexican or an argentinian.

 

OP, don't be giving Arum ideas!

The pay for PPV in advance and the opponent will be a surprise is very Arum-esque.

That too. But a shot Mosley would have put Katsidis in a coma and KO JMM inside 6.

I prefer Berto or Martinez but dont try make out JMM is a viable fight, until JMM beats a 140/147lber its garbage in my eyes. He got sent back down to LW and thinks he deserves a shot at the WW champ?

 

I don't wanna see this shite. Arum hopes the casual fan buys this shite. I am not excited for this at all. I admit I was a little excited for Margarito vs. Pac. I wanted to see Pac again. But, this shite has lost its luster. What a disapppointment. Arum sucks ass. LOL

 

Didn't know they used the word "shite" in the Dominican Republic.

 

When u use ESB as long as I have, u learn a lot of words. :good This place is educational as well.

 

Arum is a loser!
I still wouldnt want to marquez pacquiao 3, tbh i think pacman would embaress both mosley and marquez!
You need to have a full tank and more to even compete with pacquiao and its a shame because none of these 2 have any of that!
Its a shame that guys like arum is making fights like this happen, its a disgrace but nothing can really be done about it!

 

He does not care. He is just going to milk the Pac's name and Mosley's name as much as he can. He knows Pac has about 2-3 fights left. PBF may or may not be one of them. He ain't taking his chances waiting for him. He will find all the names he can and match them up in the process.

If they are Top Rank fighters, the better.

If it takes away from GBP bottom line, the better.

Money and vengeance.

 

Bob Arum is the biggest POS and snake in boxing.

 

its always been about a style, not a race.....and mosley isn't that style
