Mayweather wants it and Pacquiao wants it.

But greedy, selfish old Bob Arum is the one who's preventing it. He wants a big slice of the pie for himself as always.

Arum is getting very old, why doesn't he realize he can't take his money with him to Hell when he goes there?

:lol:

Floyd Mayweather is a coward.

Fights not happening because of testing.
Manny agrees to testing.

Fights not happening because i'm not getting the lion share.
Manny agrees to smaller split.

Fights not happening because I don't like his promoter.

He's straight up shit-scared of Manny Pacquiao. I guess it figures, he barely scrapped by Maidana and ran for 12 rounds against the ginger teenager. Exactly why Floyd would lose if the fight ever came off: he already lost in his own mind.

Not really fussed either if it happens to be honest. It is dragged on so long I really can't be bothered to say much about it. Plus there are tons of other fights I would like to see happen. Okay they might not get the level of exposure as any potential match up. But the sport does not hang on one mega fight happening.

Mauweather is taking the wrong approach again. He should be fighting Pacquiao in spite of Arum. Instead he sounds like a big baby.

Yeah, I am going to fight a guy and make his promoter MILLIONS out of spite, even if Floyd wins Arum gets a W too.

I blame Bob. If you look at Bob's resume in his later years its littered with guys making their biggest purses without him or "his ex boxers" doing better away from him than with him however you wanna look at it. Oscar. Floyd. Miguel. Soon Julio Jr. Manny would've got his biggest purse sans Bob if he ever had left. There is definitely a trend here & it has nothing to do with Floyd or Manny. Bob doesn't wanna pay a mfer who's getting hit in the head what their worth. Thats why Mikey & Julio Jr are on the Andre Ward schedule lately. Bob is a cancer on boxings ass.

Surely there is part of Mayweather that says "screw it, I wan't to prove a point". There are a lot of people who believe Pac Man can take Mayweather. Money is missing Pacquiao from his CV, this fight will further seal his status as one of the greatest of all time if he could pick up the win.

The guy has enough money already, just get the fight on and stop looking for excuses.

Arum does not promote Mayweather. Who the hell cares about Arum. So what if Arum makes millions. Mayweather is the chump here if the fight does not happen.

dumbass logic. If Pacquiao is happy to be promoted by Arum at the rates he charges then that's to do with Pacquiao, and guess what Pacquiao wants to fight.

So what exactly is it to Floyd? Arum is just the best excuse, cause it's a hurdle that won't move (unlike testing and % split). If Arum released Pacquiao, Floyd would find another reason.


What people don't realise is that before Pacquiao moved up in weight Floyd was his biggest fan. He knew he was watching greatness, and he wants none of it. Pacquiao would smash his slow old ass up. Give him a Maidana trilogy or some shit then hopefully he retires and we never need to hear from him again.

Yea like 8 guys think Manny wins. Even mfers who'll boldly say Floyd is scared of Manny, say well I favor Floyd as hilarious as that sounds.

A Manny W on Floyd's resume's does lil at this point. Bob f#cked over this fight happening in 2009-10 & thats when this fight mattered. Now whoever wins the other guy is just gonna be considered past his best days for anyone looking at the reality objectivity. For the Floyd haters a Floyd win will just garner Manny was past his prime remarks or a Floyd loss will just make Floyd's entire career a fraud despite all the name cats, many the same guys Manny beat afterwards & got praised for.

Then why call him out in the first place.


"Yeah I want the fight to happen. Arum and Pacquiao running from me. We will make it happen"

Arum and Pacquiao agree to fight

"We can't fight with Arum"


Why say anything?

What is that to Floyd? Why should Floyd care about what Manny is being paid? What does Andre Ward have to do with what Bob Arum does? Arum isn't Ward's promoter.

Like Alex said to Bob. Show the signed contract with the so-called agreed to terms. I guarantee there isn't one, but no one is gonna say sh!t cuz then you won't be doing any TR pressers or TR fighter interviews.

I understand the Floyd hate for cats on forums like this though. He's a black guy who's rich, acts rich & says disrespectful sh!t & gives no f#cks what boxing fans think. Thats not a guy many are gonna side with. They are much more likely to side with the old greedy white guy who's f#cked over more fighters than anyone besides Don King & has as many name guys sitting on the sidelines as a Kim Kardashian gangbang.

You don't seem to understand how splits work. If fighter b gets a higher percentage that would mean fighter a gets a lower percentage or less money. Floyd is the A side. Floyd gets paid more whoever they fight now. Floyd is the guy people are gonna be paying to see get beat. Few care if Manny wins, they care if Floyd loses. People would be coming to this fight for Floyd not Manny.

I was making a joke about Mikey & Julio Jr fighting as often as Andre Ward.
