The news came from horse's (promoter) mouth itself. Obviously, you're a scared *****. Why don't you guys wait for Floyd's response until the weekend if he's signing or not.
If Pacquiao vs Mayweather is worth $100million, Arum gets his cut from only Pacquiao. If Pacquiao vs Top Rank Fighter is worth $50million Arum gets his cut from both fighters and he i guarenteed to have the winner in another big PPV. If Floyd completley destroys Pacquiao (I AM NOT SAYING THIS WILL HAPPEN) which is possible, Pacquiao will not longer be a mega draw. Have you seen the proposal in Floyds hands, were you there when Arum faxed it to Goldenboy?
what am i scared about, am i fighting any of these dudes just from that response i order you atonce to leave the internet cafe that you spend your lunch money in you insulent child. now go home you *******:tired
It's not all about money. But on the other hand, you're practically admitting that Pac has the better drawing power in fighting boxers other than Floyd. If I were Pac, why should I fight non-lucrative fights when I can make more fighting Floyd. Remember, it's Pac who makes the final decision here not Arum. No, have you?
THIS :deal. Look what he has done with Margarito... If he rematches him against Cotto or puts him against Pac he still gets alot of money from a cheater who nobody is interested in fighting(other than other top rank fighters). This man is a business and marketing genius.
What I'm trying to figure out, why would Arum lie about something like this? If Pac didn't accept to everything and Floyd signs, then it would make Pac look bad...... use some sense Floydettes
BTW, Floyd has until Friday to accept Pac's proposal http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=239694
why...he could lie about the demands floyd made "floyd signed the contract after altering it requesting blah blah blah..." or the contract sent could be such crap he knows floyd wouldn't sign or they argue about venue last minute (arum DID just publicly trash the NSAC, so it wouldn't be surprising if he tries to send his mega-fights to dallas) or insert any numerous b/s things he could do
Pac accepting the 14 day window only months of letting it destroy the first negotiations leads me to believe he definately ducked mayweather the first time.
assuming that pac-may (50-50 split) makes 100M while pac vs any other top rank fighter(60-40 split) makes only 50M and arum gets 37% off pac's purse and let's say arum gets around 60% from the rest of the toprank fighters, i believe arum's payday as promoter would be way bigger if pac-may gets made. Do the math.. besides, arum's approaching 80. does he really need more of what he already have. come to think of it, he can't bring his wealth in the after-life. I think deep inside, arum wants this bigtime fight to happen and witness it first hand while he still hasn't expired yet.
Arum decides who Pacquiao fights. Not Pacquaio. Trust me on that. No I havent, which is why I havent started a post about Floyd having a contract. Arum is most likley talking ****.
