    I dont really recall saying that, but I do recall saying that He fought nobodies after his lost to Margo. I think that I statement was that he ran and hide in Europe after his lost to Margo.

    I love how people think promoters are thief's.They rob the poor fighter. Floyd never pulled a decent crowd till he fought Oscar.Arum propped up floyd fight for years because he is boring and could not draw breath .His attendances were abysmal. Don't worry about all the loans the fighter get when a promoter takes so money back he is robbing the fighter.LOL LOL

    Despite the weight difference, I still don't know how Marquez wasn't deemed a threat to Floyd. The man basically beat Pac twice arguably, and was Pac's toughest fight to date. Yet Pac's supposed to be a huge threat to Floyd, plus that was floyd's shake the rust off fight. I don't get it.

    Of course Arum is smart, but he is also old, stubborn, overly emotional, carries grudges that affect his business sense, and at 78 years old has an "I don't give a fukk" attitude that is detrimental to the fight being made.

    This is the same guy who had to have his step-son step in for him multiple times during this whole negotiations because he admitted he is too emotional to actually negotiate like an adult.

    Also, don't fool yourself for a second. If Arum sat down with Pacquiao and really wanted to make this fight, I'm pretty sure he could convince him to take the blood tests, or at least reach a compromise. Instead, he is just feeding Pacquiao's anger and encouraging the whole lawsuit fiasco.

    Arum is a greedy *******, he WANTS the fight to happen even though he doesnt like Floyd. But he had already predicted the future a few months back when he told everyone Mayweather would use outrageous bull**** demands to duck this fight. I guess he figured that since GBP would represent Mayweather then Floyd would actually man up and fight having to resort to his usual ***** bull****. Now we see that he was right the whole time. Im just shocked that GBP would actually go through the motions knowing(and they did know) that Floyd wasnt really ever going to fight. I still cross my fingers that the fight can be made.

    yep bob said months ago that he predicted floyd would pull some ***** move to get out of the fight and he was right.

    we all knew it too, there's noway floyd ever wanted to fight pac.
