    How in the world are Pac lovers still defending Manny, Arum, and the entire Pac Team??? Yes, Bradley is a good fight, his best opponent since Marquez in 08' or Morales in 05'. But, Floyd comes out and says they have a venue on hold (Schaefer confirmed this) and they intend to make a fight with Pacquiao......All Arum says is "Floyd is making a sick joke, trying to steal Pac's spotlight right now", "We can't wait for Floyd, Bradley could be next", even though EVERYONE with their head on straight knew that Bradley has been lined up for months already. Same s**t happened with Margarito, Mosley, and Marquez.

    Margarito said he talked to Arum in February 2010 and that he was promised a fight with Pac for November 2010, when they were supposedly "waiting for Floyd". Mosley said he agreed to the Pac fight in way back in October 2010, before Pac even fought Margarito. Marquez said he agreed to a Pac fight back in April 2011, before the Mosley fight. We even had a Top Rank associate come out when they signed Bradley and said that he was next for Pacquiao. It's unreal that people still think Mayweather is holding up the fight.

    The only time they had negotiations, Floyd signed to fight and Manny didn't. Floyd says he's coming back on May 5, 2012 (confirmed by Golden Boy) and that he wants Pacquiao. But, it seems like the Pac team os content with the whole "Mayweather is afraid" thing, instead of actually trying to make a fight. They've fooled the public for so long,w hy try and stop now??? If Marquez were to beat Pacquiao, which ain't going to happen, I guarantee Arum would make the fight with Floyd.

    It's one of two things.....either Pac truly doesn't want the random testing without a cutoff, or he's getting terrible advice from Arum....I say it's the Arum one.

    Arum says there are no issues with testing, yet Ariza and Koncz say there are. Floyd says he wants the Pac fight next May, Arum says it's all bulls**t. If Pac has really agreed to the testing protocol, make the fight Bob.





    Don't be surprise when Pacquiao fight Bradley next year.

    They really want this fight though dont they :lol:

    If team pac doesnt grow a set of balls and start telling Arum to make this fight, and start putting more pressure for this fight to get made, theres no way I can continue to support team pac.

    Floyd wants the fight-WHEN HE COMES OUT AND SPEAKS, IT JUST SHOWS HOW MUCH MANNY REALLY DOESN'T WANT IT...

    THEY KNOW PAC WILL HAVE TROUBLE WITH FLOYDS ARM REACH AND MUCH BETTER FOOTWORK THUS THEY DONT WANNA PUT HIM IN THEIR TO GET THE LOSS..

    WHATS WORSE IS HOW STUPID THEY'LL LOOK WHEN FLOYD BEATS HIM EASY.

    That's the whole point of this thread. We all know that Arum has planned Manny's last three fights months ahead of time before. Margarito even confirmed that Arum promised him the Manny fight months before Manny even fought Clottey.

    No wonder he's not pleased with Floyd's announcement. It's not hard to read between the lines, Arum has done this for Manny's past three fights and this time he's only upset because Floyd has beaten him at his own tactic.

    Bob Arum has never wanted this fight...Floyd is calling his boy out and all he can do is make it about himself and his respect...Floyd wants to fight on May 5th what up Bob? You want it or not...if they don't take the May 5th date then I never want to see the fight because what's been so obvious from the jump will be even more clear...Bob Arum is a greedy pig who doesn't want his cash cow to get his ass whooped and it speaks vloumes on Manny's "accomplishments and awards" history will say when the opportunity presented itself on even ground Floyd was ready and willing and Manny wasn't willing to face the best of this era. They won't mean **** especially if Floyd goes on to beat Khan and Martinez.

    Bob Arum is pure scum. It absolutely stuns me how some people claim Mayweather is the stumbling block, it's clearly the wrinkly old promoter

    We ain't waiting!

    but Bob Mayweather already got the date and place set, and you said you agreed to all the stipulations...

    We ain't waiting, Tim Bradley is currently on Speed Dial at number 2 Mayweather isn't in my address book. That time is crucial.
