    not necessarily. its a win win for Arum if Bradley wins convincingly, he may have a new star on his hands, while Manny will wind down his career fighting Marquez

    So what the **** is the point of fixing a fight if he has no intention of making the Mayweather one as msot people on here allege. i dont think Pac-JMM 3 was fixed, i think the judge picked has a history of being unfavorable to non-aggressive style fighting (Glen Trowbridge)

    This is nothing but a stupid money making fight, with no sense to it. If manny and floyd dont fight he should just retire, Unless pacroids fights berto or sergio martinez, which is unlikely

    Is this all you can do? Act like a message board drama queen? First you hate Rios because of his promoter, say he's over hyped because he has fans, and now he's exposed because he lost. You're a ****in pathetic excuse for a boxing fan. Which I guess you really aren't. You're nothing but a mayweather fanatic. :-(

    You admit you're a ****in ****** of a poster? Nothing but a butt licking Floyd fanatic? The epitome of the ignorant fanboy? Well, the answer to BOTH our questions is yes. Let me guess, you expected me to come sayin Rios won right? Because Arum is his promoter? That's how Arum obsessed you are. Man the **** up...

    So if Rios lost to Abril, then my statement about him being overrated would indeed prove to be correct, right?

    Or because he is a Top Rank fighter, with a "fan friendly" style, he is allowed to have excuses?

    :patsch Holy ****, is this really how you think? He's overrated because he LOST? Really? that's how you see this sport? You're ****in pathetic drama queen. I'm glad you posted that though. Maybe others will see how ****in stupid and shortsighted you are.

    I may be on the minority here, but look at this:

    - Pac just expressed his desire to retire. Bradley is probably his last fight. He repeats the same thing whenever he is interviewed here on local shows (Phils).
    - Bradley is an up and coming star. Beating Pac convincingly would add a huge amount of stardom under his belt.

    That being said, if you were Arum, why the hell would you pay the judges to make Pac win?
    Why not PAY THE JUDGES TO MAKE SURE TIMMY WINS and effortlessly create your new cash cow?
    Furthermore, Pac has never been a star due to his record. A lost to Bradley won't turn people off from watching his "all out war" style.
    I was already an avid fan of the sport when he lost to Morales and his fan base didn't even flinch about the loss.

    I just don't see an advantage to making Pac win on a financial standpoint here.

    As long as May/Pac is plausible we won't see them losing decision.
    Should be clear by now.
