Why doesn’t Mayweather get credit for calling Manny out on May 5th?

You dont believe thay. Why is it that its always an arum fighter that is always stopping a mega fight? You never see any other promoters fighter avoid a fight when they say they want one. Even the serg vs chavez fight, Arum kept Chavez protected even though he said he wasnt then admitted lying that he was. Some of you guys are just hilarious I wonder if you are that naive your real lives.

 

Because it was BS.

 

Pacquiao and Mayweather were happy to pretend like they wanted the fight but to make mega-millions fighting other opponents who were easier (or considered easier).

It was such an obvious PR game from both sides.

 

did bob arum make floyd retire back in 2008?
did bob arum make floyd fight JMM because he needed a "tune up" before pac in 2009?
did bob arum make floyd fight a 39 year old mosley in 2010?

did bob arum make floyd fight 6 times in 6 years?

give the arum **** a rest fanboy :|

 

this^^ :deal was obvious to me that toprank wanted no part in making the fight.. they could have called floyds bluff but didn't.

 

Floyd doesn't want the fight unless the reward is so ridiculously high that he wouldn't be able to justify to himself not taking the fight. Floyd is all about risk vs reward, so he offered Pacquiao an insulting offer of $40m, where he would have earned well over $120m. This was designed to be an insult - Floyd won't risk that 0, which he markets himself on, for anything less than a ludicrous figure and despite some say Floyd beats Pacquiao, there is no doubt that there is something about Pacquiao that Floyd sees as a threat, no question, he sees something others don't see or he would have taken the fight already.

Arum has his politics and will manoeuvre constantly until he gets a huge piece of the pie. He doen't want to share it with GBP.

The only one who I think really wants the fight at all costs is Pacquiao, and he is the most powerless to make it happen

 

what is insulting about 40 mil when pac had never came close to earning such money? By this logic pac was being insulted well before floyds offer and has continued to be insulted since. Only now, i bet he wishes he had accepted the 40 mil when he had the chance.

 

Floyd always tell the boxingworld what they want to hear , But never follow through .

Everyone knows this already . Thats why no one takes him seriously .

 

LISTEN ALL U NEED TO KNOW IS THAT U ARE 100% CORRECT.

NOW EXPECT YOUR THREAD TO BE FLOODED AND AMBUSHED WITH FLOYD HATERS
AND *******S THAT ARE LIVID LATELY SINCE HE GOT KNOCKED THE **** OUT.

BUT TRUE BOXING FANS LIKE U AND MYSELF KNOW MANNY DUCKED FLOYD OVER AND OVER
AND ON MAY 5TH WAS THE MOST BLATENT EVER AND PROOVED EVERYTHING.

EXPECT THE *******S AND FLOYD HATERS TO ATTACK...

BUT LIKE I SAID ,..ALL U NEED TO KNOW IS U ARE 100% RIGHT AND EXACT:good

 

No he doesn't, it wasn't 40m for Pac, it was for Top Rank's share. Pac would end up making barely more than for JMM or Bradley.

 

It's not like it was going to actually happen. No way are Mayweather and Arum going to actually work out a deal.

 

Froid always get credit for calling out people , that's all he gets ( just calling out people ).

 

Because that doesnt fit in with the ******* fantasy of him being scared of Pac.

 

Why don't they do this

Winner takes all the PPV money and sales revenue.

Who ever backs down is a puss*

 

Yep Arum part is all that need to be said. Lowballed and 40 mil dont fit well in a sentence.
