    Arum has been negotiating with himself and the media. But when it comes time to put words to paper, **** changes.

    How do you really know all the bull**** you post?

    I'm lookin at Arum as if it's Arum incorporated. Now, I'm not claiming to be intelligent, but in America, a business is in place to earn a profit.

    I could be wrong...

    But I'm basing this around historical evidence, and cultural aspects regarding business.

    But you're right, ultimately I don't know, just like you don't know.

    So why don't we move on from the Pac fight and consider Mayweather vs Martinez.

    Honestly, that's a good fight and Mayweather has proven that he's head and shoulders over his opposition, so in my eyes, that's the only potentially competitive fight for him outside of Pac which probably won't happen.

    That's right, he's creating new obstacles all the time. Now it's supposedly Pac having a promoter, and his little joyboys are already defending him.

    The funny thing is GBP ALREADY has a piece of Pacman due to his signing 2 contracts.

    Arum wont deal with GBP or (especially) Haymon. He's openly stated he refuses to speak to Haymon.

    greenburg begs to disagree. so you actually believe in ellerbe more than greenburg? also do you actually deny that floyd took a vacation?

    Greenburg, the man who was just let go from HBO for letting PAc go to Showtime? The one that Arum has blasted in the media FOR YEARS because of his favortism to GBP?

    The same Greenburg who had an interest in trying to keep his job at that point? The same Greenburg who is NOT Floyd's manager or promoter?

    Keep in mind, Koncz already said they never agreed to testing beyond the 14 day cutoff, which was a demand Floyd said he WOULD NOT bend on.

    My question is this, if Floyd is repped by Haymon, Ellerbe, and GBP, why would you negotiate through someone else, who DOES not rep the fighter?

    Why would you say you are keeping discussions private, and then post a deadline for Floyd on your website??

    Arum is playing games, always does, always will. It's utterly ridiculous.

    That piece Golden Boy was taking, they aren't anymore. Pac's contract expired after 4 or so fights, so it's done.

    In any case, Arum worked with Golden Boy 3 times after that court order, maybe 4 times, I think Barrera was still with Golden Boy for the rematch.

    The issue that happened after came as a result of De La Hoya and Schaefer trying to taint Pacquiao as a drug cheat. They've since called a truce, and have already worked together this year.

    There should not be a problem, unless Floyd makes it a problem.

    if pac was a boss this is the path he would take. the reality of it is, is that he could demand MUCH more money if he took the free agent route.

    He could probably make the next promoter only take like 3-5% of the pie. Every promoter would be chomping at the bits to get this fight




    on top of it I wouldn't be shocked if tim bradley didn't even get the fight for real. arum is going to sign him and hold him hostage I bet. Arum doesn't work well with black fighters

    What is this?

    Hmmm lets see. Here's your question in Arum terms:

    Make money?
    Yes No

    Theres no way Arum is going to let the fight happen without his grubby hands in it. If it did happen this way, Pac better not try and come crawling back to him and expect Arum to go on an anti-fight propaganda spree.

    First of all, I don't know anything about Arum. I haven't said anything about Floyd personally, only his actions.

    And what are you gonna do about it?

    I mean, you dislike me, so do something about it.

    greenburg has no reason to lie compare to ellerbe. ellerbe of course would just cover floyd's vacationing ass to save him from not fighting pacquiao late last year.
