    Don King -

    "Floyd is definitely losing the PR battle. Bob Arum is so much smarter than these other guys who are involved. He's magnificent man.....these guys aren't smart enough to understand the brilliance of how Arum does business. He already got Margarito signed, sealed and delivered as Pac's next opponent. He's making more money for himself with less risk to his fighter....it's brilliant"


    Financially Arum has more interest in making Cotto or MArgo vs Pac. He get's some of both. He get's none of Floyd.


    King also mentions his lobster lunch meeting with Floyd. Floyd asked King "how he would make the fight." King told him ".....you want to get an education they can't give you at Harvard Business School, you got to pay tuition"
