Latest on Caballero/Lopez.

You never know im not saying arum is not lying, because a lot of things happen in these situations. But you also have to understand promoters are just like a marketing individual. You could also say maybe Cab's promoter really doesn't want his fighter after all in the ring with Lopez at this moment. Why not built a name for his guy and market him as being the 'most fear" in his division but also in boxing to the unkown public. By simply saying Arum is a liar and Lopez is afraid. Maybe hes using Lopez to market his guy since Lopez is becoming rapidly popular and becoming an attraction. It's all maybe's unlike you I wont say who is lying, just simply maybe's.

 

Lopez - Luevano is a done deal for some time.

 

If Cab's promoter really wants to market his guy, then ACTUALLY FIGHTINGING JuanMa would be the best way to do it. Cab is 33, he doesn't have a whole lot of time left. There is absoltely no reason why he wouldn't want to put his guy in there with JuanMa, especially considering how Lopez looked in that fight. You know what you're trying to claim makes no sense, and you know what I'm saying makes all the sense in the world.

 

How long has it been a done deal?

 

How about if Team Caballero will offer JuanMa, 160k to fight him in Panama?? Do you think JuanMa will accept this kind of offer??
.

 

As I said before, you only choose what you want to hear. You opinion has no greater value than mines or vice versa. Your making sense because you want to convince yourself. Have you made points, everyone does, it still doesn't say you are 100 % correct and still doesn't prove anything on who's lying in this situtation. It's all what you believe. You are bilnd, you attack Lopez for not taking his fight against Carabello, who has a promoter that deals with that. But then you are blind and simply forget of what Mayweather is doing to Mosley and try turn things around in his situation even when he is own boss.

 

This makes perfect sense, the only question I have (because I don't really read every boxing news site) is if the quotes made by Caballero's promoter were made after he would've already heard of the offer Arum claims to have made.

 

Of course not, but I think it's obvious that this is a slightly different situation since it is Caballero the one who's chasing Juanma. Arum has a lot more match making power than Caballero's promoter and Juanma doesn't really need to fight Caballero because Arum already has big plans for him to put him head to head with Gamboa. Caballero doesn't have that, his best shot is to beat Juanma and kind of take his place in the future big money fights in the 126 division.

 

he made 175k for the molitor fight

 

Stop with the red herrings. We're talking about Lopez here. Continuing to bring up Mayweather is not going to help your cause. Mayweather never promised to fight Mosley, Mayweather is not lying about offering him a fight, and the guy that most people want Mayweather to fight is Pac. Back to Lopez. I am not blind. I'm assessing the whole situation which is why I am almost 100% sure that Arum is lying. If you weren't biased and blind, you would agree with me.

 

Do you have the link for it?

 

Early september at least. Lopez cant do 122 no more, he was scheduled to fight one last 'easy' fight at super bantam and move up so caballero was already out of the picture. Mtagwa was definitely not easy but from now on Lopez is featherweight.

 

$150k is a farce.

Thats like what.. 90-10 split?

Lopez team don't want none of Caballero.

hopefully you understand spanish, here he clearly mentions and talks about his potential fight with Caballero. A little translation he even makes a reference to fans like you. I "would like" to fight Caballero, we need to make this fight. Is not going to help me "economically", but these types of fights are just simply needed because the fans become impatient and ignorant this refers to you and dont really know the boxing business. But I def. want this fight to happen because hes been talking and has offended me and my people. I really dont need him, he just envys me and wants to be me. But this fight has to happen so I could just shut him up. I told my boss and my promoter to make this fight, its in Arums hands and his promoter. They also want me against Gamboa, but things have to fall in place, both of us need to fight more, to build up our names and make it into a bigger better event. The January date is simply a date by Arum, but anything could happend around that time. The only thing I know for sure is when I fight, Gamboa will be fighting on the same days.

So how could you not admire a young guy like him, simply doesnt need the fight, but wants to give the fans what they want. It simply relies on the promoters not him. Now get me a video where he guarantees Carabello a match. He wants to, but its not in his hands. My feeling is this fight could happend, but not in January, a slight chance in February, but most likely maybe in the summer for PR festival in NYC.

 

A lot of people are definitely being too hard on Juanma, but this was to be expected, I don't think it should affect ground minded boxing fans. :good
