Why do some people worry about what opponent makes pac and arum more money or who is the biggest draw when its clear that Pac and Arum can swim in 10 pools filled with Benjamins? What happened to boxing fans wanting to spend their hard earned money on competitive matchups? :think
It always surprises me of the impact of prefight hype and a few episodes of 24/7. :-(i just cant understand how the sold Pac Margo as a PPV:huh I must say that Bobby Arum is a fantastic promotor:rasta
Because it matters to me how much my man-crush makes. It gives me pleasure knowing my man-crush is making millions of dollars, wiping his ass with $100 bills, having orgies with beautiful women, while I drive a Pinto and can only afford Carlos Rossi wine and cheap Banquet TV dinners. I know Floyd/Manny deeply cares about my predicament, so it is best I live vicariously through him and cheer when he makes millions.
It's not the people who are worried about it...it's Arum and Pac. Pac has had many wars in the past, he has built a legacy with them. At this point of his career I say he can worry about money first. Especially when the only guy that can really enhance his legacy is ducking him. And the other guy is just too big for him...you know what I mean?
This. emmanuel is worried about how much cash the fight will bring in. emmanuel is the one who can make or not make a fight. Only stupid people think prizefighters don't do it for checks. Even someone like Oscar, who fought "everyone", was in it for a return.
Arum over Don King any day. Arum spends his time on promotion and marketing while some of the others spend there time entertaining judges with decisions that rob everybody.
Lets be real people......Pacquiao vs Margarito was a legitamate matchup. A smaller more skilled fighter vs a crude much bigger one....... With the exception of Mosley, Margarito gave every welter he ever faced a fcompetive fight. The fact that Margarito outweighed Pacquiao by 17 lbs made the fight legitamate for me.
trying to justify they're favorite fighters every move and the people surrounding them, i think aside from the radicals, you will find fans that are somewhat pissed at the thought that these radicals defend their favoarites as if they are getting a part of the pot.:hey
