    That hasn't been proving to be false yet so you need to come harder than that.

    There was no 14 day cut off offer. Bob Arum

    Dude I am just getting started. I am going to go all the way back to the late 70's early 80's on your ass with Arum lying. What else you got?

    Arum could've talked to someone from Singapore, but that doesn't mean that they talked to Floyd. Even if they did talk to Floyd...this doesn't mean that Floyd has to take the fight in Singapore. Floyd has just as many people doing the math on how much he can get fighting pac as arum. People don't understand that Floyd and arum had a terrible relationship. Why do you think dlh left, and why do you think that Floyd and arum have said that arum makes more than he should as Pacs promoter?

    Or was that a "joke" back in the day?

    And depending I guess on what we were bein' told, I think I would believe Mayweather first.

    Bandeedo where did you run off to. LMAO Here you go again.

    In one instance, on Top Rank checks, Mayan got over $200,000 for one fight, while the fighter Campas got $41,000. And then there was the $10,000 Top Rank took out of a Campas purse for a urine test!

    Arum charged Campas 10,000 dollars for a urine test when it didn't cost that much.

    He is a snake, that's like calling a spade a spade. However, one guy is consistently trying to make money even though his nickname ain't money. Go figure. I can say I have confidence in his consistency.

    Floyd talks some bull**** but Arum lies for a living.

    He's a snake oil salesman, it's all part of the promoting game to turn situations to your advantage. He'll have decades of experience spinning a line.

    I don't particularly trust any parties involved but I trust Bob the least.

    Prove that he didn't make 12 million.

    Arum was asked straight up, what drug terms Pacquiao had agreed to and he was unable to give an answer.

    We agreed to full testing.

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NKwuyCU6N8[/ame] We agreed, just not within 7 days. "Michael Koncz. :lol::hi:

    "im my own man" / "thats not up to me, thats up to my promoter"

    "i dont make the rules in boxing i just fight the guy THEY put in front of me" / "take the tests (not required by goxing rules)

    "arturo gatti is nothing but the truth" / "gatti is a c level fighter"

    these are lies lol. I think you Floyd and pac fans who are biased towards your fighters need to take a day off and let boxing fans debate boxing. Turn this **** down or off and take these weak arguments...ball them up and throw them in the garbage. I answered your post, but I'm not talking to just you. This back and forth trash you guys are talking towards the other guys favorite fighter never ends.

    How can you call him saying something about Gatti a lie and he doesn't make the rules in boxing. Thats true. He also has the right to ask for additional testing. Thats not lies dude. See Manny fought Cotto at a catchweight of 145 when the rules state that a welterweight bout is at 147. So Floyd doesn't make the rules and he has a right to ask for additional testing. So please try again dude. The bottom line is Arum has said "Yesterday I was lying, today I am telling the truth. Nuff said.

    Arum said that Chinese business men never paid 3 million to be part of the Barkley and Dewitt fight but was proven to be lying. :deal
