    OK with it?

    Pac moving down to 140

    Bradley trying to fight the winner of Cotto vs Alvarez at 154

    All because Arum has ran out of marketable in house fights at 147.

    So we're supposed to believe that the Golden Boy vs Top Rank war is over because they put in house fights together on the same card?


    We're also supposed to believe Pac and Arum want Floyd, but have plans to fight at lower division?

    "Since we can't get Floyd we will take Algeri" is also exceptable wtf!


    Boy I can't wait for Pac and Floyd to retire because they are the catalyst for all this nonsense. The promise of a fighter having the options to fight these two is why the best aren't fighting the best.

    **** Floyd and Manny, and let boxing start a new era

    By the way K2 Promotions is the future of boxing. They're marketing GGG the right way and introducing him to new fans without the politics.

    I have a problem with all of the promoters, but K2 is the one I can't say anything negative about so far. TR's opponent selection for Pac sucks right now (Rios, Algieri). Golden Boy not giving fighters like Thurman their limelight, TMT (Floyd-specifically) not opening himself to TR (and vice versa). Al Haymon paying people off. They're all getting annoying and ruining boxing for me as a fan. I wish boxing didn't have so many hands in the cookie jar, just ruled by one commission.

    Then why has Arum been popping off about potentially fighting Danny Garcia (also with Al Haymon)?

    Dude stfu about Pac, you stay on his nuts. And yes, I do blame Pacquiao too. He's a grown ****ing man and a big name in the sport, he can do his own thing if he wanted to. He doesn't need Arum and he can actually dictate TO Arum because Arum needs Pac, not the other way around. Pacquiao can reject opponents. Everyone said TR and GBP were patching things up, well we're still waiting. Pacquiao vs any GBP opponent will be stalled or not happen. They're going to have issues with Cotto vs Canelo too, just watch.

    There isn't, Bradley and Marquez are top P4P and the only available opponents for Pac, of course he'll fight them. If they were Golden Boy, he wouldn't have fought them. You are one of the worst to argue with, every time I say something to you, you take it in another direction.

    No, it's not. Bradley and Marquez have *never* been the best fighter @ 147.

    NEVER...

    I have got to the point where I don't care what kind of machinations these promoters go through. If they put on a good fight, I will pay for it. If not, f**k em.

    Bradley is 2-2 at 147, Marquez and Provo are not even full fledged welters. Matter of fact, Marquez, Provo, and Bradley have only fought at 147 against each other. Marquez fought Alvarado at 144 (weighed in like 142, both of them). So it's hard to call Bradley one of the best welters when his only 2 welterweight wins are against JR welters.
