New Stuff From Bob Arum Regarding Mayweather v Pacquaio

Honestly, I think if Mayweather stays the course and increases the pressure, he'll make Arum crack.

:think

 

This is when the *******sa spin from lets build a stadium to why not late May? Thing is they will not make sense cause if its why not late man then it should also be why not May5th.

 

I need to save this so I can quote it when I see it pop up.

 

But...but..Arum didn't throw a press conference! :rofl

 

Sarcasm. Yesterday twitter was a brutal source for anything and now it's legitimate because its somewhat favorable towards Pacquiao. Typical stuff we deal with here from a certain fan base.

 

floyd mentioned may 5, arum/pac countered with june 9.

floyds turn to make a counter and maybe they can agree to a compromise.

 

Oh no pbfred, you've got it wrong! I'm a floyd fan and know he wants the fight. Pac wants the fight but should do more to get it. Arum is ducking like a *****. You can check my post history mate! Floyd calling out manny on twitter was a great thing to do as it caught the worlds attention within minutes! Dan was on ESPN talking about it within an hour. I'm in the UK and article on skysports(Main sports provider) and its in all the main domestic newspapers. Floyd wants Manny May 5th, Team Pacquiao are stalling. :deal

 

There is no reason they shouldn't fight on May 5th. Cut is ok. Stadium doesn't have to be done. Fight should happen May 5th.

 

Yea man, Floyd's recent twitter moves appear to be working. Hope he keeps his foot on the gas.

 

You know how silly this sounds, right?

Floyd didn't "mention" May 5th. He booked the MGM, one of the best boxing arenas there is, on a date that is typically one of the bigger earners of the year.

Arum "countered" with a date that would have seen Floyd in Jail for 9 days already.

A couple of things:

1. The late May date that has been referenced so many times as of late (forget the June date, that's just ridiculous) was so that they had enough time to erect a bigger, temporary stadium.

2. Pac himself has said that his cut is fine, so the late May date had nothing to do with his cut needing extra time to heel.

3. Arum is now saying that MGM is fine (and the temporary stadium is not necessary).

1 + 2 + 3 = Late may is no longer needed, and May 5 should be fine.

 

Can't be broken down any better.
