    I mean all the money these 2 people/companies have and they need to act like Arum murdered a Mayweather relative or something. Floyd still brings it up, said he ordered the fight even though he usually never gives Top Rank any money.I mean this is sad behavior for a 40 year old. So Arum couldn't promote you like you wanted it but you still did it yourself and made more mony than ever! So get over it man.Wtf you going to do hold a grudge forever?:verysad You both work out of the same city. These silly fueds are counterproductive. Some of your best prime days were with Top Rank. Now when Arum dies you just gonna shun Todd Deubuff also? From what I heard Floyd and Todd always got along. He was the guy meeting with Floyd and Al to make the Pac fight. They didn't even have to talk to Bob Arum. I have a feeling when the old man dies you will start seeing Top Rank/TMT Co Promoted fights. Its good business to work with as many promoters you can. Choosing favorites and locking others out is BS.

    Well it depends if LeBron James...

    JK :lol::D:lol:

    I don't know. If I was Floyd, I'd be reluctant to since Arum actually still owes him money and they have a huge history of feud with one another.

    How much does he owe him? From what I heard it was $2-3 million for the Gatti and Judah fights. You know how much Floyd made from the Judah fight up to his final against Berto? It makes $2 million seem like a spit in the bucket! Get over it Floyd!:good

    It's one thing to part ways and hold a little animosity .....but for someone like floyd he takes thing personally...especially since that's where he got started

    Like I showed ya in that post a few days ago....bob said nice things about floyd ....even said he agreed to fight margarito ......then when floyd decided to work with Oscars company bob did a 180 and started calling him a ducker and all that garbage

    Nobody really knows if Arum still owes Floyd money. I would think that this money would have been discussed and taken care of at the time Floyd left Top Rank and starting fight Golden Boy fighters with Haymon as a manager. Doesn't make sense that Arum owes him money. Floyd is a known liar. He's very vindictive.

    And Oscar did the same when Floyd beat all his top guys and finally got his promoters license and did May vs Pac and May vs Berto under Mayweather Promotions. Oscar trashed Floyd everywhere, even wrote an article in Playboy Magazine full of insults. :patschThe man was very bitter that his company had nothing to do with Mayweather vs Pacquiao.

    Arum's also a known liar which makes it impossible to know what really went on between them.

    I will say that Arum bad mouthed Mayweather for years and in his situation I wouldn't talk to him either.

    I'm not saying that Arum is telling the truth and Floyd is a liar. I'm saying its possible either way. Both TMT and Top Rank will be around for a long time. Both Las Vegas based companies. I just see it as counterproductive and its hurting boxing because were not getting some fights because of this divide. If Floyd wants to hold a grudge against the old man that's fine, fock him. But when he is dead I cant see why Floyd cant work with the obvious heir to Top Rank Mr. Todd Debeuff. ( possibly wrong spelling)

    I think whatever Top Rank owed Floyd was given to him eventually. If its true and this money is owed I'm sure a few letters from your lawyer and the money would of been given back. But if the money was paid or if Floyd refused the money just so he could stick to them later. If this is true then Floyd is being a little ***.
