    Of all Ppl Bob Arum!!:nono

    We all know there relationship & to me Arum knew exactly what he was doin by publicly puttin a timeline out there knowing Mayweather would just laugh to himself and not budge!! Let alone he puts it out there when he knows Mayweather is in the middle of things!! It's pure BS & a part of his grand ole scheme to start early promo's for Pac's next fight just encase it aint Mayweather, but playing nice guy publicly so Mayweather doesn't tell him to go **** himself!!

    The Press conference tells it all, he had no direct contact w/anyone from Mayweathers camp & even moreso... he said that it was a contract that he and Pac agreed on, nothing about a contract that all agreed on! Key words... 'I laid out the terms that would be acceptable to "Our Side"

    It's TR Bull****!!! That's my take!!!

    I don't understand this either. Why would Mayweather rush to meet Arum's deadline? Arum is terrible. He always robbed loyal fans of their money.

    Arum tried to corner Floyd and it didn't work. Lets hope we get the fight despite the drama.

    Yep. Floyd is under no impetus to bend to Arum's "deadline". That's a joke.

    People forget Arum is a lawyer, i am a lawyer myself, i can tell you this, the man has learned the art of manipulation. I am so glad Floyd beat him in his own game. I mean we all know why Arum did that, he lies most of the the time if not all.

    You guys missed this whole thing. Arum was daring Floyd to take the fight NOW!! The fight everyone wants to see NOW!!. The fight that would put boxing back in the spotlight once again. After thsi last year or so, arent you just to a point that lets do this NOW!! And if this fight is to be made this november FLOYD has to agree NOW!!

    Who the fck really cares about this fight in 2013???? Because from Nov to May things can change, PAc may retire or get killed, same with Floyd.. So fck this contract BS. Fight NOW!! ESB and all boxing fans wants this NOW. I dont want this sometime next year, Are you guys kidding me?

    Arum is actually brilliant. I will make the most money as possible yet at the same time, I want to give the people and boxing what they want NOW!! which is possibly the biggest fight in PPV history ever!

    This kind of fight cant wait! Are you guys ******ed? Can you imagine thsi fight 2 years from now? Pac is all battle worn and shot, Floyds too slow and have lost his speed. This fight has to be now and thats what Arum wants.

    I never really thought Pac would play in to Floyd's accusations of PED abuse, but he still conceeded to more stringent drug testing.

    exactly, pac probably will beat margo or cotto but he's going to take a beating.

    i think for floyd, the longer this drag on, the more better for him. he may be slower with age but he will be the fresher of the two.

    they should fight now, so there be no excuses on who is the best.

    No chimba, Arum isn't brilliant & no it wasn't a dare! Arum tried to pull Floyds card & put him on the spot publicly & with the media thinking Floyd would budge & it didn't work! Only thing he got out of this was the opportunity to have a press conference & to announce future opponent for Pac & make statments that said Pac won't be fighting any live wires like Bradley or Williams followed by those BS excuses & reasons! They key words in Arums statements were

    LOL Floyd tried the same **** with the drug testing. Where were you then?

    Its crazy how these double standards work. As long as it favours Floyd, its OK.

    The only way Pac beats Tony if it's at 142 or some **** like that.

    You can't beat Margarito without an inside game.

    Pac can't fight on the inside worth a ****.

    Cotto and Pacman have the same huge flaw:

    They are both WIDE-OPEN down the middle and can't see uppercuts for ****.:deal:deal:deal

    Don't drink the Pacman cool-aid..

    If you think Clottey had his head flying back....Margarito will have him looking like a Pez dispenser:yep

    Clottey lost every ****ing round.

    Margarito would do good to survive the distance.
