    "The only person who can negotiate is [Top Rank Inc. CEO Bob] Arum. Certain members of Team Pacquiao are trying to go around Bob Arum and have reached out to our side. We will not engage in this and support it. From what we are concerned, Manny Pacquiao has a boss, and his name is Bob Arum," said Schaefer.




    Bob on Manny being in negotiations with Mayweather

    "Pacquiao's not necessarily wrong, but it's not right either," said Arum. "Things are happening, but so far, nothing solid."

    So basically backing up what Ariza was saying.

    Roach wants the fight, Pacquiao wants it. Floyd wants it, Ellerbe wants it. Basically the entire World wants this fight, except Bob Arum.

    It's an amazing place where a fighter can't even fight who he wants, the worlds wants, but one fat fuk doesn't want? Simply amazing.

    I wish Pacquiao would issue a statement saying "I don't work for Bob Arum. Bob Arum works for me." I really hate his old, corpse-looking self.

    Manny is a politician for **** sake, utilize the media if you want the fight. Arum's not peeping a word about Floyd's demands being unreasonable lately, he's just a shut in at this point. If Manny really wants the fight and his promoter is blocking him, then speak about it and Arum will have no other options or else to live out his existence in ridicule and shame.

    Like I said in the other thread - only one man's opinion really matters at the end of the day - not Roach, not Ariza, not Koncz, not Pac, - it is Arum.

    Arum wants the fight. Don't make that mistake. But it will be in his terms with his numbers. Money maker like Pac, PBF, SRL, Ali, ODLH are rare breeds. At the current rate of decline of boxing and at his age, Arum is not about to negotiate for pennies - or even millions. He wants tens of millions at the end of the day.

    This is no different from ODLH/GBP or PBF.

    The difference is Arum is the smartest and most powerful man in boxing. No exception.

    Man it would be so nice to have "certain Pacquiao nutt-hugging" Posters (and they know who they are) to chime-in and admit that Arum was ****ing this whole fight right in the ass from the beginning. But instead what they'll do in come in and make this whole thread about Mayweather saying stupid **** about vacations and testing. Arum lied over and over and never wanted it. Arum got exactly what he wanted...he made Pacquiao a star, He made a ton of Money, He got people believing that Pacquiao was better than Floyd....so stop bullshittin' and make the fight!
