Is anyone else getting fed up with Pacquiao? (Also Arum!)

Hell yeah. I love how Juanma and Gamboa weren't allowed a mile of Caballero as "he wasn't a big name and couldn't sell" but Litzau now is being considered as an opponent for Juanma atsch.

The only problem though is that Top Rank are by miles the best promoter Stateside and Boxing needs the best Promoters it can get. If I had to pick Top Rank or Golden Boy I would pick Top Rank 100 times out 100. Golden Boy are exactly the same Top Rank but a far worse promoter and are full of ****, at least the Bobotran and the gang don't try and feed holier then thou bs like Golden Boy do.

I think the issue is that GBP are no longer getting preferential treatment from HBO.

A couple of years ago, they could put a fight between two half decent names and get it on PPV, and other promoters were losing their TV dates to accomodate them.

Now it's a level playing field, Arum is saying :finger to them. Usually I wouldn't mind, but he's going a step too far with all the in-house fights and Pacweight contests.

Well?

He's widely recognised as the best fighter in the world, but seemingly isn't willing to face the best fighters in and around his weight class..... at the weight class limit.

Instead, we've got a joke fight against Shane Mosley, who couldn't even beat Sergio Mora.... instead of the fight that most people seem to want against Marquez.

Even worse, it seems we've got a rematch between Cotto and Margarito, with the winner likely to get a rematch with Pacquiao..... even though both fights were high on the list of ''one-sided beatings'' of the past few years.

Apparently the Cotto vs Martinez 155lb fight is off because Cotto is refusing to do a % based deal and wants to pay Martinez a fee..... who is the draw here?

Surely HBO should pull Arum on some of this shite and demand Pacquiao vs a live, non-damaged opponent (for the first time since early 2008 :hey) and bin off Margarito - who is without a meaningful win in a similar period..... and level the playing field a little?

Rant Over!
