ESPN: 50-50 Mayweather-Pacquiao

so how's that working out for you brah?

 

so you're saying that when Arum went and negotiated with Floyd, he was able to get him to come down from his demand of more money :shock:

why didn't he try that this time?

 

It all seemed so easy back then, look how much time has passed and still no fight.

 

arum and pac didn't know it yet but haymon told george peterson who told malinowski on

who is Scoop Malinowski and why the hell should I ever trust a report from a guy named Scoop?

 

it's not scoop that said it, it's george peterson.

 

yea George Peterson told Scoop who reported it to a website that looks built on editorial reporting. Still. Why should I take his word anymore than I take Michael Marley's?

 

it's been 2 years and george could at anytime disavowed that interview or those quotes but hasn't done so which make it more believable than not.

 

He may not even know that interview exists. The internet is a big place. He's too busy training Paul Williams the exact same way no matter what. Something as damning as this usually gets out and people have to answer questions about it but the ONLY time I have heard about an interview this old is a year after it occurred.

 

***** keeps movin the ***** ass goalposts.

Void don't wanna fight. It's done. It's been done for the last 4 years.

 

Scoop is the Biggest PBF hater on the planet . . . do a google search and see all the **** he talks about PBF. The guy just makes **** up and half the time you see the other Haters on here quoting him.

in 09 both sides agreed, PBF even agreed to the extra stipulation ($10 million/pound over) but pac's side walked away when they realized what OSDT really meant.

it is interesting that they stadium was talked about even back then . . . economically it still does not make sense. Even the stadium in dallas was a flop because PBF got a larger gate in MGM in the same year.

yes, 50-50 was agreed to back then just before Arum shut everything down PBF said it was a one time offer and negotiations would have to start again.

Arum never wanted the fight back then and still does not want it now

Didn't Arum make 1001 excuses why OSDT could not happen? Now it okay now! If it is okay now why not back then? you tards use that arguement with the 50-50 . . . and I gave you an answer. Now answer mine

 

I think Pac wants the fight but Arum does not want it to happen. If Arum wanted to make the fight happen he would have answered PBF call-outs publicly by simply saying; "lets get it on!" If he would have said that and then PBF I want more money you guys might have a case. But what did Bob do? first he said Pacs cut would not heal in time, then when he thought PBF was going to jail he was trying to make a fight with JMM on the same date and same venue. Then PBF gets a delay to his sentence and now May 5 and the MGM is not good enough because of manny's cut again and then he wants to build this crappy stadium. Not to mention that Arum refused to take the call from GBP about the fight. Then he claims he needs PBF to call, so PBF calls manny direct and they talk on their own. PBF makes an offer and Manny turns it down, so pbf has to find another option for may 5th because his licensing hearing is coming up so he goes to plan B, Cotto.

So tell be exactly what did Bob Arum do to try and make this happen?

What did Floyd do to try and get the fight?

He called him out publicly, by name before the JMM fight. Nothing from Pacs side

Pac-JMM fight, PBF continues to talk about fighting Manny starts to get GBP to call Bob about the fight. . . still nothing from Pacs side.

PBF books the MGM (the best Venue for boxing in the World) on May 5th (the biggest PVV date on the calender) to fight the little guy. GBP is still calling to make the fight, Bob still not answering the phone. Pac's side . . . bob starts spreading rumours that the little guys is Morales and then Guerrero.

PBF starts tweeting and calling out on Facebook . . . bob still does not answer phone, goes to see pac about seeing 4 fighters, none of them is PBF. Asked why he has not been answering the phone claims that he didnt know what GBP wanted and if PBF wanted the fight he could call direct.

PBF was already in secret nego's Pac's adviser Koncz, and finally calls manny direct.

so tell me once again what did arum do to make the fight happen?

Manny cannot fight with the OK from Bob so Bob has to be in the mix at some point in time. Arum was talking about JMM4 right after JMM3, once he saw the numbers coming in.

 

at the end of the day, who made the PEDs accusations and who changed the 50/50 agreement before and is now pricing himself out of a fight?
