Arum says he’s still waiting for Mayweather or one of his representatives to contact him about a fight
January 10th, 2012
By Jason Kim: Bob Arum says he still hasn’t been personally contacted by either Floyd Mayweather Jr. or one of his management representatives about putting a fight together. Since he’s not hearing from any of them, he’s not buying that they’re really indeed interested in fighting.
Arum told abs-cbn news.com “Until Mayweather officially authorizes a representative to negotiate with Team Pacquiao, it’s all nonsense and innuendo.”
If Mayweather wants Golden Boy Promotions to negotiate for him with Top Rank, then he’s going to have to advise Arum that they have permission to do so before he starts the negotiation process.
Hopefully, Mayweather isn’t waiting for Arum to make the first move because it sounds as if Arum isn’t going to do that. Maybe he’s been burned too many times and is jaded from the experiences. In that case, Mayweather will have to make the call himself of have his personal adviser make the call. It’ll be sad if the fight doesn’t get made because no one is making the phone calls.

hey Phlomo Phaggit… uwanna get schooled again or u wanna bring up the race card?
lmao
Pacquiao already agreed to LESSER PURSE and EXTRA DRUG TESTING.
You mean to tell me Floyd can’t agree to fight at a date three weeks later? LOL
Floyd be a MAN not a MOUSE.
Ahaahahaha.
Filipinos looking so stupid for supporting this coward hypejob.
The American public just sh1tting all over this catchweight chump.
‘I can’t fight Floyd on May 5, one of the biggest days of the year for PPV boxing. I can’t fight Floyd at the MGM where I JUST fought JMM because it’s too small’
AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.
PACQUIAO is looking bad with his fans. He is losing so many of them. Before he said he wants to give the fans the fight they want to see between him and Mayweather. Now he’s saying he wants to wait until the end of May or June to fight because they want to wait for out door venue to be made. And Arum said he needs more time to promote this fight.
I have a question for Bob Arum. How much time do you need? This fight has been promoting itself for the last 2 yrs.
STOP WITH THE EXCUSES AND FIGHT BEFORE BOXING FANS SWITCH TO MMA WITH DANA WHITE.
@eman….hey dummy…. didnt bob arum say that manny pacquiao would decide who he would fight next? after every fight pacquiao says i fight who me promoter tells me to fight… now bob arum says hes letting manny decede who he wants to fight… they are both scared and lying!
@eman and Anonymous the (dumb one)….. like i said ,the little slave is running scared.where is he at? i thought he was going to demand to his master bob arum ,that he wanted the mayweather fight….hey master arum can me fight mr mayweather,arum says… pacquiao, shut your mouth boy,you do what i tell you to do. i bob arum own your azz boy,i tell you what say,i tell you how to dress,i tell when to cheat on your wife,i got more control of your life than you do!you get it boy!……me sorry master i be good little boy.
@WHITE RICE
DON’T BE CARRIED AWAY WITH YOUR EMOTION.
YOU HAVE TO RESPECT THE ARUM-PACMAN PARTNERSHIP OR PROMOTER-FIGHTER RELATIONSHIP. THEY HAVE THEIR OWN SYSTEM OR PROTOCOL. THEY HAVE THEIR OWN JOB DESCRIPTION AND I THINK IT’S EFFECTIVE BECAUSE THEY’RE NOT OVERLAPPING EACH OTHER.
THE PROBLEM IS LITTLE FLOYD HIMSELF. YOU HAVE TO TAKE FIFTEEN (15) ELEPHANTS TO PUSH HIM UP INSIDE THE RING AND TWENTY (20) SORCERER TO CONVINCE LITTLE FLOYD THAT PACMAN IS NOT THAT SCARY TO MAKE HIM AGREE TO FIGHT HIM.
@JEFF; Mayweather did send a representative,the former magistrate judge that worked on the first round of negotiations between the two fighters. Arum said ” I am not interested in making the fight. So Mayweather took to the airwaves to call Manny out that way. Why are Pacquiao fans the least informed?
Floyd is not interested in negotiating a fight. He just uses Manny’s name to fool his fans and make money. Or, he wouldn’t be calling out Manny on twitter and instead send a representative to make the fight. Such a loser. But ever worse are his blinded fans.
Tried to talk to him twice. First time he said would not talk till after marquez fight secound time said not interested in negotiating…. What’s the point anyway arum sais only will do on June 9th… Knowing floyd going to jail June 1st. Entire too rank camp is a joke and so I manny he needs to put his big boy pants on take that leash off and man up.
@johnny; why do you think I started to get frustrated with dude.The truth he denies,but the lies he believes.
@WayOfTheDragon out of all those quotes you just brought up from floyd he only actually said two of them. stop making stuff up to defend manny its pacthetic
Its on mayweather to make contact. Especially after calling pac out on twitter like a teenage girl. By now they can put the negotiations on ppv too.
@way; also(who)wants to have a big fight and than go to jail the next day?
@white rice
You’re and idiot! Have you seen your congressman lately?
@white; All it takes is for Manny to say ” make the fight Bob” and it’s a done deal. @war; I am not sure and that’s why I want Manny to take what’s a certainty (May 5th) and fight.
TO ALL PACQUIAO FANS!!!!!! HAS ANYONE SEEN PACQUIAO? HAS PACQUIAO EVEN GIVING A INTERVIEW? WHERE IS HE HIDING AT? I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO DEMAND THE MAY5TH FIGHT WITH PBF? BOB ARUM AMD MANNY PACQUIAO ARE PLAYING GAMES WITH HIS FANS,BECAUSE THEY KNOW PAC FANS ARE NOT TOO BRIGHT,AND ARE REALLY NEW TO BOXING.I THINK THIS GOES TO SHOW PACQUIAO FANS THAT BOB ARUM CONTROLS EVERY PART OF PACQUIAO LIFE! PACQUIAO CANT DO ANYTHING WITHOUT HIS MASTER.
@WayOfTheDragon…everyone can see that pacquiao doesnt want to fight mayweather. i feel sorry for pacquiao,a grown azz man who cant even speak up for himself. why hasnt pacquiao came out like they said he was going to do,and demand a fight on may 5th?manny said he had NO problems fighting on may 5th,the scratch,wasnt a problem,money wasnt a problem? hey pacquiao you are making yourself look bad…..look at ALL the excuse that bob arum has come up with? YOU PAC FANS CALL MAYWEATHER GREEDY,BUT ITS BOB ARUM THE ONE WHOS BEING GREEDY!
Sean…how do you know they won’t give a 9-day or two week extension if Floyd went up to the judge and asked for it?
How do you know Floyd’s lawyers and Floyd himself doesn’t have that much pull?
Did you know other celebrities have gotten additional extensions in the past in order to delay their jail time?
How do you know that Floyd FOR SURE won’t get an extension?
The FACT is this: Floyd already got a 6-month extension. Therefore logically speaking, the judge is more likely to grant an additional 9 days if Floyd’s lawyers can give just cause. And an additional millions of dollars to the Vegas economy provides just cause to grant a few more days.
Floyd: “Manny you’re next”
Floyd: “Oops I didn’t say that. Don’t put words in my mouth”
Floyd: “the “little fella” is next!”
Pacquiao: “I want to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. next”
Floyd: “Sorry fans, but I can’t tell you who the little fella is. Might be Pacquiao but it also might be Guerrero or Maidana”
Floyd: “Date is set. Cinco de Mayo. MGM Grand.”
Arum: “Didn’t you say you want to fight Pacquiao? Then how come you haven’t spoken to me and draw up a contract in a professional manner?”
Floyd: “Manny…step up P U N K”
Pacquiao: “I’ll take smaller purse. I’ll take any test. I’ll fight on June 9th. I’ll even do winner take all like I told Kimmel”
Floyd: “I’m fighting 135 lb Robert Guerrero. Y’all know who he is?”
Arum: “hey Floyd, if you want Pac’s head like you say, the date is June 9th, he’ll take any test you want, and even take less money. What do you say champ?”
Floyd: “I need another tune-up against a lefty.”
Arum: “I thought you’re your own boss?”
Manny: “Yeah, I thought you’re the big boss?”
Floyd: “I only deal with these kinds of things on Twitter.”
Arum: “You p u n k a z z coward. Hey Manny, we’re moving forward with Marquez or Bradley. Who do you want?”
Manny: “Floyd”
LOL
Just so you don’t say I didn’t answer it again.
They gave him an extension already.
They gave him an extension already
Again for the umpteenth time! The consideration given to Mayweather was the 6 months extension on his surrender and courts don’t give you another extension because you are famous. The courts will not care about a fight in June because Mayweather said it will happen in May and than he’ll surrender in June.Can you understand what I wrote since it had been written like 5 times already?
Hey Sean, if the courts don’t give preferential treatment to athletes like you claim, then how come the federal judge granted Floyd a 6-month extension on his jail time?
Why you keep avoiding this question?
School is in session BIG TIME.
yes I asked you the Trinidad question a long time ago…Why don’t you scroll down and read CAREFULLY.
And PROVE TO ME you answered this one because you NEVER did:
If “The C.O.U.R.T.S. do not have an O.B.L.I.G.A.T.I.O.N. to an A.T.H.L.E.T.E. for any reason especially one with history and bad A.T.T.I.T.U.D.E.” like you say, then explain to me why a federal judge granted a six-month extension to Floyd’s jail time?
Trinidad and you never asked me this question.Also I have answered your questions repeatedly and I do not have the time to repeat myself.Everyone except you knows Arum doesn’t want to make the fight. Arum even said he has never wanted to make the fight. I have a link and I am done with you! You actually don’t read boxing news or check multiple boxing sites,you go to TR dot com and you repeat Arum word for word. Take care now and still misinformed.
More proof that Sean lacks depth in his arguments and lacks common sense.
He asks me “Why would Arum try to control a person that paid to break free of his control?”
lol DUHH….
Isn’t it well known that Arum is a greedy money hungry control freak?
Doesn’t Arum like to control Pacquiao’s career and the money that flows from it?
So hmm…why would Arum try to control Floyd Mayweather, the self proclaimed I’M MY OWN BOSS, and try to control the date and venue for the biggest fight of the century? The same Floyd Mayweather that flat out disrespected Arum during their much heated break-up years ago. Why would Arum do this??
Ah DUHHHHHHH!!
Here’s another debate question that I asked you a long time ago that you dodged:
Who’s the GREATER fighter and WHY? T i t o Trinidad or Shane Mosley?
Sean,, thanks for the compliments “little fella”.
We all know who schooled who. Once again, you failed to answer my question and dodged me faster than a mayweather.
If “The C.O.U.R.T.S. do not have an O.B.L.I.G.A.T.I.O.N. to an A.T.H.L.E.T.E. for any reason especially one with history and bad A.T.T.I.T.U.D.E.”, then explain to me why a federal judge granted a six-month extension to Floyd’s jail time?
You just got owned bruhtha.
Sean says “Arum is trying to gain control so he can wrestle the fight outta both of their hands so it can’t be made.What other purpose can it serve?”
Explain to me first why you think Arum doesn’t want to make the fight. What purpose does it serve if Arum never makes the fight?
Meanwhile, think about the fact that I told you Arum has a long standing animosity with Haymon and Floyd and the veteran promoter Arum wants to be the one in control of the date and venue because of the magnitude of putting this fight together. What purpose does this serve? It serves the purpose of showing FLoyd that Floyd doesn’t run the show. Now tell me why you think Arum doesn’t want to make the fight and for what purpose.
That will explain why she won’t do it again! GOTCHA! Seriously speaking you are one of the more inexperience Paq fans.PEACE
Have a good day I have enjoyed corresponding with you even though nothing came out of it.Trust me when people read this it will be clear I handled you with the ease Mayweather would handle Manny.
Sean says (confusingly) “The C.O.U.R.T.S. do not have an O.B.L.I.G.A.T.I.O.N. to an A.T.H.L.E.T.E. for any reason especially one with history and bad A.T.T.I.T.U.D.E.”
Then explain to me why a federal judge granted a six-month extension to Floyd’s jail time?
Gotcha (again).
@WAY; remember when I told you it would be counterproductive and it made very little sense to do? Why would Arum try to control a person that paid to break free of his control? This is why I don’t usually debate Paq fans on this site. It’s like you aren’t even reading.Arum is trying to gain control so he can wrestle the fight outta both of their hands so it can’t be made.What other purpose can it serve?
Hey Sean…
Manny made concessions by agreeing to SMALLER PURSE and UNLIMITED RANDOM TESTING, the two biggest known obstacles to the fight.
You mean to tell me Floyd can’t be a man about it and agree to June 9th? LOL
Floyd don’t want none.
And contrary to your opinion…Cinco de Mayo is NOT perfect for Pacquiao or Floyd. wanna know why? Because neither of them are Mexican!! lol
Floyd wants to fight the Mexican Guerrero. Because he’s not ready to get socked in the eye by a Filipino and Floyd needs the help of the Mexican people in order to generate PPV since most Americans won’t even watch him any more lol
It’s not up to Floyd to decide and he can’t do it because he has to turn himself in 8 days S.O.O.N.E.R. You don’t seem to get it. The C.O.U.R.T.S. do not have an O.B.L.I.G.A.T.I.O.N. to an A.T.H.L.E.T.E. for any reason especially one with history and bad A.T.T.I.T.U.D.E. You want Floyd to do all this,But I have yet to here you say Manny should just fight on the 5th.Why?
Sean…you are now beginning to show your true colors – that you’re a bonafide idiot.
What does Floyd’s previous brushes with the law have anything to do with the judge not granting a 9 or 14 day extension WHEN THE JUDGE JUST EXTENDED FLOYD FOR SIX MONTHS.
Logically speaking, since the judge extended Floyd, a repeat offender, for an additional 6 months, it can be logically inferred that the judge won’t have a problem extending Floyd another 10-14 days because of the economic boom resulting from a FLoyd-Pac fight.
Similarly, if the judge had NEVER extended Floyd to June 1st, then one can logically infer that the judge would in no way give Floyd any concessions to any date.
You’ll never get it son.
He doesn’t want to fight! May 5th would be the perfect day,because both fighters have a history of beating Mexican fighters and I know Mexicans would love to see either man lose.Why would Manny or Arum complicate the whole deal with a request for an extension from a judge that has already extended Mayweathers surrender date? Make it make sense aside from ” Arum’s connection’s”
Manny made concessions by agreeing to SMALLER PURSE and UNLIMITED RANDOM TESTING, the two biggest known obstacles to the fight.
You mean to tell me Floyd can’t be a man about it and agree to June 9th? LOL
Floyd don’t want none. End of story.
@way,you do realize Mayweather has been convicted before of something similar to this and for another charge? Way you aren’t schooling anyone you are actually coming off as confused and jovial about your own post,which usually contain very little logic and clear reasoning.So you are telling me this is Mayweather’s first brush with the law? I do not want to attend your school-if this is what will be taught. I have a better chance at a Special Education school than learning from your post here.
9 days or 14 days, it doesn’t matter. Now you’re nitpicking because you have nothing left to argue.
The judge can easily say June 10th or June 14th. Doesn’t make a difference if Floyd’s lawyers can show the judge that a Pac-Floyd fight would generate X amount of dollars to the city.
It’s Floyd if he wants it. Bob wants to control negotiations because of ego. Floyd wants to do the same. But if Floyd really really wants Pacquiao’s head, then all he needs to do is agree to June 9th. If he’s HIS OWN BOSS like he says. Bottom line.
But he’s gonna fight Guerrero lol
Tell me Sean…why will Manny turn down a Cinco de Mayo fight with Floyd?
Why dont you enlighten me since you act like you’re so sure Floyd wants Manny as bad as Manny wants him.
Also is Mayweather supposed to turn himself in on June10th? No,so that would mean Floyd would need more than a nine day extension.Arum is complicating something that is very simple to pull off.
Sean says “Mayweather is a repeat offender when it comes to this particular thing,so I doubt he’d be given even more considerations”
What an ignorant statement. You really wanna get schooled again don’t ya?
If Floyd were a repeat offender and if the courts were applying zero tolerance to Floyd, then how come they delayed his jail time SIX FRIGGIN MONTHS?! lol you’re argument is weaksauce.
The FACT that the judge allowed Floyd to delay his jail time GOES TO SHOW that the city of Las Vegas ain’t trippin as long as the city makes money. Floyd is a big time celebrity there who helps the city with charitable causes. The judge proved that they can show leniency to Floyd.
9 DAYS AIN’T SH1T.
Sean….just because the judge already gave Floyd a date doesn’t mean it’s set in stone.
How many times did Floyd delay his court proceedings to appear?
Why did the judge grant June 1 extension in the first place? because the judge knows a Floyd Mayweather fight would be a huge economic boost to Las Vegas.
So why would the judge grant a 9-day extension in order to accommodate a floyd fight on june 9th if floyd really wanted it? Because this is Manny Pacquiao we’re talking about here. The Michael Jordan of boxing.
You talked about common sense earlier yet you seem to lack it big time when it comes to the judge granting a 9 day extension.
Get it yet? LOL
Your reason isn’t suffice! Mayweather is a repeat offender when it comes to this particular thing,so I doubt he’d be given even more considerations. Like I said before ,I best it’s conjecture and wishful thinking. All Manny has to do is sign up for May 5th and the rest is history.Just remember I gave you a real reason why it’s likely she’ll turn down his request and you gave me the speak about Arum and his supposed connection or Vegas favoritism toward athletes that bring in money.
I already answered that question. Are you paying attention? Read a few posts below. I said this:
More schooling.
Why will the judge say yes to an extension?
Because the system in Las Vegas protects the interests of the gaming and casino sectors. And a Pac-Floyd fight has so much m a g n i t u d e and brings so much revenue to the city that the judge ain’t trippin’ over 9 days.
But I thought you already knew lol
Because she gave him one already with the objections of the prosecutor and can you demonstrate why she would?
“Use google to cheat” LOL To cheat on what?
“affairs of the heart” lol … so you still haven’t told me why and how you think the judge will not grant the extension.
You keep saying “the judge won’t do it, the judge won’t do it” yet you cannot say WHY SHE WON’T DO IT when she’s already granted a 6-month extension lol
WOW
Sean says “why was his fight in Vegas recorded as having the highest grossing live gate?”
Where’s your source?
Sean says “If ever you want to get a real debate going with real fans with actual knowledge of the sport”
As if having an account on Espn Insider makes you a “real fan with actual knowledge” of boxing lol
Debate Question: Who do you think is a greater fighter, Felix Trinidad or Shane Mosley, and why?
@way; this is Arums 7th excuse in less than 2 days and I am willing to bet anything there won’t be an extension and Arum will never let Manny near Floyd. The rest of what you wrote came from your heart and not your mind. I don’t deal with affairs of the heart with men and no we can’t debate because we are online you could use google to cheat.
I just thought about something;if Manny put 45,000 people in their seats in Dallas,why was his fight in Vegas recorded as having the highest grossing live gate? Do you mean to tell charging 16,000 people brought in more money than seating 45,000 people? Fuzzy math and I know who is the professor of it…Arum.
More schooling.
Why will the judge say yes to an extension?
Because the system in Las Vegas protects the interests of the gaming and casino sectors. And a Pac-Floyd fight has so much m a g n i t u d e and brings so much revenue to the city that the judge ain’t trippin’ over 9 days.
But I thought you already knew lol
And if the judge says no, then it’s up to Bob to agree to May 5th because Manny will be ready regardless.
But Bob would not put the offer out to pay for lawyer costs to have the date moved if he knew the judge would say no. Bob is an accomplished lawyer. He has pull in that town. I thought you already knew.
@Sean…the reason why you’ve been eaten alive here is because you failed to back up your so-called “i n d i s p u t a b l e truths and realities”
I asked you how is it an Arum lie that a fight of this m a g n i t u d e would need to accommodate more seats? You failed to answer it.
Let’s put it this way…the judge will grant a 9-day extension. Only if Floyd and his lawyers ask for it.
Why would FLoyd fight Guerrero on May 5 instead of pac on June 9?
Because Floyd wouldn’t want to dare risk putting an “L” on his record right before l o c k up time. Plus Floyd feels like he didn’t put enough work in against Ortiz so he’s ognna take another easy road to victory right before he concentrates on not dropping the soap lol
Speaking of boxing knowledge, we should do a challenge right now Sean. U game?
@way; seriously,what happens if the judge says no? Will Manny fight on May 5th or will Floyd lose out on a fight and payday?
@way; what happens if the judge says no?
@WAY it was nice debating with,I have come to the conclusion no matter how things play out you will place Arum and Manny in a good light,all the while neglecting the T.R.U.T.H. I didn’t expect to enlighten you mainly because it doesn’t work that way for certain people.But I at least hoped you would be open to i.n.d.i.s.p.u.t.a.b.l.e. truths and realities,but I guess I was wrong. If ever you want to get a real debate going with real fans with actual knowledge of the sport.Check E.S.P.N f.o.r.u.m,my username is mightyfist1.But you have to sharpen your s.w.o.r.d before entering or you’ll get eaten alive. PEACE
Sean…I saw it with my own two eyes…There were at least 40,000 people there and I’ve been to many NFL games so I certainly trust my judgment.
Sean…the only thing you’re smacking is yourself.
Why don’t we see first if Floyd accepts the June 9th date. If he does, we will then see if the federal judge will grant it. Then we will see who really got smacked.
So what if Bob hasn’t paid Floyd for other fights. That doesn’t matter in this discussion because like I said, this is about CONTROL IN NEGOTIATIONS. Bob has told Floyd he will pay lawyer costs to go to court and ask the judge for an extension because Pacquiao wants to make this fight happen.
Bob knows Pac wants it but keep in mind that Bob still has his beef with Floyd so Bob is making Floyd take the date (control factor).
Let’s see if Floyd takes the date. If he doesn’t, it means he doesn’t really want to fight Pacquiao right now. My money says he fights Guerrero. Easy money for Floyd easy money mayweather. Nothing new.
Arum the bain of boxing is ruining the best thing that could happen for the sport in years. A greedy bitter old man pooping the party of millions and insulting there intelligence in the process with his stupid mayweather dodging tactics. It is truly tragic.
Dallas stadium can seat that many,but that many tickets weren’t sold,unless you believe what Arum tells you without getting an official statement from Jones or SHOWTIME or HBO.
“I am meeting with my promoter, Bob Arum, on Tuesday and I will insist that the fight with Mayweather be given the preference,” said Pacquiao, who has won 15 fights in a row dating back to 2005.
Pacquiao’s statement at Mail Tribune January 11, 2012
Sean asks “Why build a stadium when you can live stream it,put it online and charge a fee,put it in move theaters,bars,put a projector or big screen in another arena and charge a fee to see it.What are you talking about?”
Because you can live steam it, put it online and charge a fee, put it in movie theaters, bars, put a projector or big screen in another arena and charge a fee to see it. AND seat a total of 50,000 in an arena on the strip so you can make EVEN MORE MONEY. That’s what I’m talkin’ about and that’s what Uncle Bob is talkin about.
Wake up and smell it Sean.
@way; the boxing world and Arum’s control of it doesn’t have an influence on a judge in a court of law. Arum hasn’t paid Mayweather for Gatti and Judah so what makes you think he’ll pay a lawyer to create a reason that’s convincing enough to make a judge allow a surrender date change,for the second time? You really believe Arum can walk on water and scale a building! You won’t admit it but I am easily smacking you around.
Sean says “The Klitschko’s are the only people able to fill up an arena with 45,000 people”
Earth to Sean. Earth to Sean. Wake up man. Manny’s fights in Texas both did over 40,000.
Manny and Floyd would do 50,000 EASILY.
Wake up. Wake up.
Sean asks “How is writing Arum would be able to pay off a boxing judge,the same as saying Bob won’t be able to pay off a judge in a criminal case?”
Here’s where I’m gonna make you realize it is you who is getting smacked around in this debate.
Please find a statement made by me wherein I said Bob would need to pay off a criminal judge. What is missing in your train of thought is that Bob won’t have to pay off a criminal judge because the judge won’t see a problem in extending a measly 9 days! All Bob has to do is pay FLoyd’s lawyers for handling the work (the court fees, the hours, etc).
Hence, the correlation is this:
If Bob can go as far as paying off boxing judges in order to fix fights, then it means he has “pull” right? It means he has the resources to “bend the system” so to speak right?
Therefore yes, if Bob has this type of influence in the city and in the sport, he’s certainly more than capable to either
a) find ways and use resources and connections to bend the rules
b) go as far as secretly paying off court officials since he has deep connections in the city.
Thank you for playing.
Why build a stadium when you can live stream it,put it online and charge a fee,put it in move theaters,bars,put a projector or big screen in another arena and charge a fee to see it.What are you talking about?
The Klitschko’s are the only people able to fill up an arena with 45,000 people. Combine Manny and Floyd’s last fights and it wouldn’t fill up an arena that seats 45,000.Stop believing everything Arum says.
All you claim Arum would be able to do to help Mayweather receive a extension is conjecture and at best wishful thinking.
Sean says “Bob knows Manny can’t beat Mayweather and that’s why we get a buch of lies from him day after day.”
How is the need to build a 45,000 seat arena in order to accommodate demand a lie? Doesn’t common sense say that a pac-Floyd fight needs to have enough seats for everybody?
How is making an additional $20-40 million more if the fight were held in a bigger venue a lie? Doesn’t common sense say that if you have more people watching live, there’d be more revenue?
Meanwhile, here’s an example of a blatant lie.
“Pacquiao you’re next!!” A few weeks later…
“Stop putting words in my mouth. I never said Pacquiao was next. It’s the media’s fault.” Lol
Floyd is HIS OWN BOSS. So where’s the contract?
@way; point out the correlation between being able to pay off a boxing judge compared to not being able to pay off a criminal judge.How is writing Arum would be able to pay off a boxing judge,the same as saying Bob won’t be able to pay off a judge in a criminal case? I think it’s time to call it quits in a minute.
And Sean…stop being in denial and being ignorant.
If Bob has been found fixing fights in the past, then trust me Bob the Harvard lawyer who is WELL CONNECTED IN THE CITY OF LAS VEGAS can easily find a way to get the date moved. And Floyd knows it because the number one interest of the system in Las Vegas is to protect the gaming and casino interests of the city. And making sure Floyd’s fights do not get in the way of jail time is something the court is more than willing to accommodate, as proven by recent developments.
GOTCHA. You’re getting owned man.
It’s FLoyd’s fault that this fight is not gonna happen and you know it
Big mouth Floyd is THE BOSS as he likes to proclaim. Well if he’s the boss, then how come he can’t put himself and Pac in the ring?
JUNE 9th. Floyd knows who to contact.
Sean…you’re starting to sound like a fool. “Smacking me around”? Hardly.
Here’s where I gotcha good. Read.
Sean says “Arum paid off the judges to make Manny the winner verses Marquez.”
HAHAHAHA…you are too funny.
Do you have concrete proof and convincing and i n d i s p u t a b l e evidence that Arum paid off the judges? Enough proof in that Marquez and Beristain themselves would probably submit this evidence to court in order to put Arum outta business for fixing fights?
I doubt you have what you’re looking for.
And if you believe Arum paid off the fight judges, then what makes you think he wouldn’t pay off lawyers and find a way thru his connections to convince the court to move the date?
You just contradicted yourself dude. First you say “You can’t pay the judges off”, then you turn around and say Arum paid off the judges in the Marquez fight. LOL
Gotcha
So are you blaming Bob, Manny, or Floyd for the fight not happening?
@way; you do realize I am smacking you around in this debate?
@way; how is saying Arum can’t pay off a judge in a court of law/the same thing as saying Bob can pay off a judge in a boxing match? Are kidding me? By the way you have been corresponding back and forth with me I would speculate you”d know the meaning of contradiction.
Manny is foolish enough to want to fight,but Arum hasn’t made it this far being blind to what’s in front of him.Bob knows Manny can’t beat Mayweather and that’s why we get a buch of lies from him day after day.
@way; Arum is trying to use reverse psychology for what reason? Wouldn’t it be counterproductive? Why are you acting like Manny issued the challenge instead of Mayweather?
What Arum is essentially attempting to do is ruin the chances of it happening. Can you explain how Arum moving off the original date of the potential fight to a time Mayweather will be in jail to mean,Bob is trying to make the fight or play with Floyd’s ego? My friend you are grabbing for straws in a thorn bush.
Sean…you contradicted yourself because you said Arum couldn’t pay off judges in court but said Arum paid off the fight judges.
This is getting nowhere because you actually believe the court will not change the date. I’m tellin you that the date can be extended for 9 days even thought Floyd originally told the judge May 5th. And Bob has offered to cover the lawyer costs to get the date moved. Will Floyd’s ego prevent him from doing it? I bet it does.
Floyd don’t want to fight Pacquiao as much as Pacquiao wants to fight Floyd. That’s a fact. And it’s proven by the fact Floyd is his OWN BOSS yet if you’re your own boss you should be able to get the fight signed, sealed, and delivered if you really wanted to whoop Pac’s p u n k azz. Period.
Hey Questionaire…Fool…
Sorry but you don’t get it. If you read my previous comments, I was talking about “CONTROL IN NEGOTIATIONS”.
Of course Manny can fight on May 5th. But this is Arum’s show. And Arum wants to send a message to Floyd.
Can Floyd numb down his ego and accept June 9th? After all, Floyd is talkin’ all that smack and says he would “whoop” Pacquiao’s “p u n k” azz right? It’s an easy fight for FLoyd right?
So let’s see if Floyd will step up like a MAN.
Get it yet? Bob is indirectly making Floyd look like the p u n k in front of the whole world. How? Because Pac has been outselling Floyd’s fights the last two times each fighter has fought.
Hmm….. lol
@way; remember my rules of engagement! I said Arum can’t pay the judges off in a court of law,so how did I contradict myself? Also Arum and his company have been found guilty in federal court for fixing fights in the past. So I wouldn’t doubt he’d do it again!
@way; Mayweather told the judge of a fight on an particular day and time.Why would she allow him to go back on a promise to the court as to why he can’t turn in on the original date? Come on…my friend use commonsense.
Sean says “Arum paid off the judges to make Manny the winner verses Marquez.”
HAHAHAHA…you are too funny.
Do you have concrete proof and convincing and i n d i s p u t a b l e evidence that Arum paid off the judges? Enough proof in that Marquez and Beristain themselves would probably submit this evidence to court in order to put Arum outta business for fixing fights?
I doubt you have what you’re looking for.
And if you believe Arum paid off the fight judges, then what makes you think he wouldn’t pay off lawyers and find a way thru his connections to convince the court to move the date?
You just contradicted yourself dude. First you say “You can’t pay the judges off”, then you turn around and say Arum paid off the judges in the Marquez fight. LOL
Gotcha
You don’t get it dude, all you have to do is make arum say yes to may 5. there is no problem with paquiao with that date, you should be called way of the fool. why should mayweather follow arum’s date he has jail to take care on june… fool…

Manny and Bob has set the date, June 9th.
Mayweather wants May 5th.
Bob said he would pay for the costs so FLoyd can get a 9-day extension.
All Floyd has to do is go to court and ask the judge for a 9-day extension. Not that hard, especially with the quality of lawyers that Floyd has. Hmm…
But what will Floyd do? My money says he fights Guerrero cuz he’s not ready for Pacquiao.
Even Roger said after the Ortiz fight that Floyd’s next fight WAS NOT gonna be against Pacquiao (look it up people).
Floyd, God’s gift to boxing, needs another tune-up. Meanwhile, Pac is ready to rumble. Any time, Any day.
That’s why Nike is paying Pacquiao $75 million to wear their sh1t.
@Way; I don’t know where you live,but the United States of America doesn’t work that way especially for a person like Mayweather.
Haven’t you had enough of Arm’s feeding you a daily diet of lies?
@way; you can’t pay the judges off! I know Arum is use to doing that,but I doubt he can do it in a court of law. I have never heard of a person being able to pay just to have their surrender date switched.Where in the world are you getting this stuff?
Freddie Roach also said Manny would need a tune up fight before facing Mayweather.Do you want to see the link? Roach said it right after Arum paid off the judges to make Manny the winner verses Marquez.
@Sean…I ask you again…
please tell me why you doubt the courts will extend the date only 10 more days?
If they extended it six months, why wouldn’t they extend it 9 more days?
Please enlighten me.
How is asking for a 9-day extension an “obstacle” as you call it? Floyd has top lawyers. Bob will cover the costs. It’s not that hard to do. lol

First Arum says the C.U.T. needs more time to heal and Manny can’t S.P.A.R. until April F.O.O.L.S.day.Mind you the doctor is dating his S.T.E.P.D.A.U.G.H.T.E.R. and the doctor hasn’t seen the C.U.T. since it was S.T.I.T.C.H.E.D.
Now Arum expects the J.U.D.G.E. to grant Mayweather another extension to make the F.I.G.H.T. on the 9th.
B.O.B.wants (a) a.r.c.h..i.t.e.c.t. from the L.A.R.R.Y. H.O.L.M.E.S. vs GE.R.R.Y. C.O.O.N.E.Y. E.R.A. to build a temporary A.R.E.N.A. in a couple of months.
Do not believe the H.Y.P.E.!The F.I.G.H.T.S. not happening and I don’t know how anyone can still put this on Mayweather.
@Sean…please tell me why you doubt the courts will extend the date only 10 more days?
If they extended it six months, why wouldn’t they extend it 9 more days?
Please enlighten me.
@way; the courts are not boxing officials and I doubt they’ll extended his date.This is another way to avoid making the fight,Mayweather should move on and so should Manny. Arum needs to retire!
Unlimited Olympic Style Random Testing.
A larger share of the purse.
Fight to be held in Las Vegas, where Floyd can use his precious magic hand potion X y l o c a i n e.
Name announced last.
Ring entrance last.
All you can eat sushi.
What more does this guy want? lol
If Floyd doesn’t accept June 9th…it PROVES ONCE AND FOR ALL he’s scared to risk losing his zero against a real champion. Straight up.
Bob and Pac, IN THE LAST TWO DAYS, have now made their intentions known.
Pac said he wants FLoyd next. Bob said June 9th and he’ll pay for court costs to get the date changed.
So FLoyd, whatchu gon’ do?
June 9th is less than a 10 day extension needed. No problem. The court should have zero problem granting this extension considering the impact of a Pac-Floyd fight on the vegas economy.
If Floyd really wants to fight Pacquiao, he should have no problem with June 9th.
It’s on FLoyd to make the move. But he’s already set on Guerrero lol
@way; you do realize Mayweather has beaten every southpaw he’s faced and southpaws have landed the least amount of blows.I don’t think Mayweather needs more time for Manny.The time is now! Mayweather says he wants to fight and now Paq has agreed with Arum that(the)bout should take place on the 9th of June.In other words when Mayweather is in jail.
So what does that tell you? This is all current news,as of 30 minutes ago. Arum isn’t going to let this fight happen!
@way; Mayweather decided to fight the lineal king instead of Margarito,is something wrong with that? Do you agree with Manny not fighting the lineal king at 135,just to face a tomato can?
Cotto didn’t want to fight after sitting ringside and witnessing the utter destruction of Gatti.
Williams couldn’t get a fight with Cotto,so what makes you think he deserved to face Mayweather,especially when Floyd was breaking records at the time?
Why didn’t Manny face Too sharp Johnson or Guzman or Valero or the other Marquez brother? How about the whole 140? Manny has done his fair share of avoidance.
@Sean…Yes, Floyd doesn’t want none. Like I said, he’s the BIG BOSS but he won’t contact Arum and provide a written contract along with Haymon.
And you make no sense. Just because Roach admits that Floyd’s style is the toughest for Pacquiao doesn’t mean Pacquiao is scared especially when Pacquiao HIMSELF HAS CALLED OUT FLOYD BY SAYING HE WANTS FLOYD NEXT. lol
Meanwhile, Mr. “I’m my own boss” has no contract to provide.
And you ask why Floyd would fight Guerrero?
I’ll tell you why. Because Guerrero is a SOUTHPAW. And Floyd needs his spark plugs changed before fighting Manny
Floyd can earn a ton of respect if he chooses Canelo Alvarez for May 5th.
But sadly enough he ain’t gonna fight him.
Floyd says he’s the best. Floyd says nobody can touch him. Floyd says he’s the money maker supreme. Floyd says he’s a machine. Floyd says 42 have tried 42 have failed.
Then how come Floyd won’t fight Pacquiao, Cotto, Martinez, or Alvarez – the four most lucrative fights for Floyd that can pose the greatest challenges? Why won’t Floyd fight them?
Same reason why Floyd didn’t fight Cotto, Williams, Margarito, Mosley, and Cintron in 2007-2008.
WEAKSAUCE.
call him Floyd “Easy Money” Mayweather.
@way; are you clairvoyant? How do you know what’s on Mayweather’s mind or the inner workings of his brain? Why on earth would Mayweather fight Guerrero? First it was Calderon,then it was Morales, then it was Maidana,then it was Canelo and now it’s Guerrero.Guess who started every one of those rumors? BOB ARUM
If I am not mistaking Freddie Roach is in a LA times article dated Jan 9th stating ” Mayweather is the most difficult fight for Manny and we have trouble with his style of fight” and it’s Floyd that doesn’t want none?
@way; I am AA so I can tell you the sentiments about Floyd in the US. Most think he’s a bigmouth outside the ring,but inside the ring/he’s the truth.Floyd continuously out sells Manny and I agree Paq fights more often.
When has mayweather struggled to sell PPV’s
Even if Arum told the magistrate judge that he wasn’t interested, then how come Koncz was seen at Floyd’s gym to discuss some things?
Plus not even Floyd KNEW 100% he’d be able to fight on May 5th because he was originally supposed to start serving on Jan. 6th. But in case he could get a delay, he already had Guerrero lined up just like he had Ortiz lined up.
Remember months before the Ortiz fight was announced, there was a rumor that Ortiz all of sudden became an option for Floyd because Floyd attended the Ortiz-Berto fight only for the rumor to be denied by Floyd.
Then around October-November, a rumor began to swirl that Guerrero all of a sudden was an option for FLoyd only to be shot down. Lo and behold, the judge grants Floyd a delay and Team Floyd is ready to make an announcement this week on his next opponent. And no word of Floyd contacting Team Pacquaio PERSONALLY.
Floyd don’t want none right now. That’s why he needs another tune-up against SOUTHPAW Guerrero.
@wayofthedragon
who told you?
you’re granpa?
oh common
Sean…please stop making me laugh. I’m not trying to “overexaggerate” and speak in hyperbole here.
The fact still remains: Pac will do WELL OVER A MILLION PPV NO MATTER WHO HE FIGHTS BECAUSE PEOPLE LOVE TO WATCH ACTION.
Meanwhile, Floyd will struggle to come close to a million PPV against Guerrero because nobody knows Guerrero and Floyd has lost a lot of appeal among boxing fans in America.
Right now, as it stands, Pac is the PPV king of boxing the last two years, not FLoyd.
And if yoy don’t wanna pay to watch Pac, that’s totally fine and dandy. Pacquiao fights will still sell over a million.
Did you know that Pacquiao is about to break Mike Tyson’s record for MOST PPV FIGHTS OVER A MILLION?
Floyd is not in that discussion because Floyd doesn’t like to fight.
Pac is the real people’s champ.
Floyd is in it for the money. Pac is in it for the glory – like a real fighting champ.
Here’s one for “magnificence”:
Pac is the real life ROCKY BALBOA and Floyd is the big talkin’ Clubber Lang.
@way; how can Mayweather send Arum anything(if)Bob told the magistrate judge ” he’s not interested in making the fight? I would think it’s up to TR after that to reach out to Floyd. Maywqeather was forced to use the same media outlets Arum used to portray him badly to put Manny under pressure to fight.That happen because Arum stated ” I have never been keen on making the fight and it’s not an option now”
I am not paying for Mayweather vs Guerrero! Just like I haven’t paid for Manny’s last 4 bouts.I didn’t find them interesting,just like I don’t find Guerrero vs Mayweather interesting.
Cotto is finished and was never much of a fighter in the first place. He has won only 1 championship from the champ,everything else was vacant,
Peterson vs Paq= unattractive
Paq vs Bradley= hideous and would be painful to watch a human billy goat get beaten and eaten alive.
Stop trying to add magnificence to everything dude!
Sean…I have not missed the videos. Yes of course, Floyd has called out Manny many times whether it be on video, in print, or on UStream.
The fact still remains:
Floyd is his own boss and being that you are your own boss, Floyd still hasn’t made a real serious attempt in contacting Bob to make the fight in a professional matter. This is FACT.
Actions speak louder than words and although Bob as of late hasn’t been too keen in making the fight in spite of Manny’s wishes, the same can be said of Big Boss Floyd, who has no contract to provide Top Rank.
And if you expect manny to go on facebook and issue a similar toned “call-out” statement to Floyd, keep wishing. It ain’t gonna happen. Pac is cut from a different cloth and all he needs to say is “I want Floyd next” and it’s up to his promoter and the other promoter to make it happen. This one is on Bob and Floyd, not Manny.
And Manny is thinking…”If Bob and FLoyd can create a contract, then wait til I get in the ring. I’ll let my fists do the talking then.”
@way; can you please stop with ” my black friends” stuff? It doesn’t sound convincing.
Floyd vs Robert Guerrero. Cinco de Mayo. It will barely do a million, if that. More like 850,000. Nobody wants to see someone who’s about to go to jail fight a no-name 135 pounder who got pounded by Salido lol.
Pac vs Bradley. Two aggressive punchers. One’s a legend the other’s an undefeated champion. 1.3 million PPV guaranteed simply because of the intrigue.
Pac vs Cotto. Cotto, a champion, has proven he is far from done. In fact, he’s been reborn. Would be a tough fight for Pacquiao and bob would promote the heck out of this one. 1.25 million PPV minimum.
Pac vs Marquez IV. We all know people would still watch this fight just to see what happens. Another 1.3-1.4 million PPV guaranteed.
Pac vs Peterson. The least attractive of the choices but perhaps the most interesting matchup. Pac’s name alone would carry this bout to 1 million PPV.
Since Floyd loves to claim he’s God’s gift to boxing, then the ONLY 3 options for him should be Pacquiao, Martinez, or Alvarez or maybe even Cotto.
But he won’t fight any of these cuz he’s scared to get socked in the eye.
@way; that is incorrect! Mayweather has been saying Manny’s name and calling him out on video since the Ortiz fight.Try looking at sites that aren’t leaning toward Manny and you’ll find videos and articles of what I am talking about.
I will get you started and please don’t dismiss it because it’s on a site you dislike. I am simply providing video as proof Mayweather has said Manny’s name and has never been vague about who he wants to fight.
/pages/content11275.html it’s the top link
@way; I agree,there is nothing wrong with Manny asking for 10 million if Floyd comes in over.Just stop acting outraged like Manny would be justified because(he)is guilty of the same offense.
The fact neither fighter has tested positive is even more reason not to object to it from the start.
True enough,here lately Manny has released the statements you attribute to him.The only problem is 2 minutes later Arum disputes or refutes those statements.So who should we believe?
If FLoyd is serious about offer to Pacquiao then how come Floyd has not sent over a contract for Top Rank to review?
Isn’t Floyd his “own boss”??
A “request being sent to open negotiations” doesn’t mean much especially because Bob and Floyd are not talking. That’s my point. Bob and FLoyd are the two “big bosses” in this whole promotional aspect of making the fight. It’s UP TO FLOYD to get a hold of Bob since Pacquiao has already agreed to everything and then some.
Pac has specifically said “I want to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr next.” Meanwhile, the best Floyd can do is say he’s fighting a “little fella” next. The only other time he said he’d fight Pacquiao, he denied saying Pac you’re next a few weeks later.
As far as I’m concerned, it’s on Floyd to make it happen since he claims he’s THE BOSS. Pac has done his part.
Floyd man up cuz all my black friends are saying you’re scared to get socked in the eye lol
@SEAN
GOING PUBLIC FIRST IS NOT A WISE MOVE OF A SERIOUS FIGHTER.
THEY SHOULD NEGOTIATE FIRST BEFORE GOING PUBLIC AND IT’S A SIGN OF DISRESPECT TO CONCERNED PEOPLE.
LITTLE FLOYD, YOU SHOULD CALL BOB ARUM FIRST IF YOU ARE NOT AFRAID OF THE PACMAN.
…..Or does Pacquiao look like someone keen to make it happen?
Does Arum look like someone keen to make the fight?
Bob Arum IS NOT RETURNING THE CALLS, the sooner this old man dies the better
Let us just have this fight. All arguments are meaningless, we want the fight.
We can go on and on for hours and you will never see my point, which is moot.
The fact of the matter is this:
Pac has agreed to ALL tests.
Pac has agreed to lesser purse.
Pac has agreed to fight in Las Vegas.
Pac is trying to convince his promoter to make the fight with Floyd.
And where is FLoyd? Tweeting LOL
That’s a serious indicator of child’s play.
How is it wrong for Pac to ask for a weight penalty just because Pac has missed a weight in the past? Tell me, how is that wrong?
But how is it correct for Floyd to ask for extra testing when Pac has never failed a test and floyd had never failed one either?
@way; the question makes no sense1 Manny doesn’t have a leg to stand on when it comes to asking for 10 million over Mayweather missing a catch weight and that’s because Manny has missed a catch weigh too.So that request is shutdown!
Floyd is breaking any rules by asking for extra testing.Where did you get that from? Do you need a video of Kizer speaking on the testing issue between Manny and Floyd?
IF LITTLE FLOYD IS SERIOUS AND IS NOT AFRAID TO FACE THE PACMAN, SHOULD CALL BOB ARUM. LITTLW FLOYD AND HIS CAMP KNOWS THE SYSTEM OF ARUM – PACMAN PARTNERSHIP. LITTLE FLOYD SHOULD NOT MAKE HIS CALL ON THE TWEET AND MEDIA.
I THINK CALLING THE PACMAN VIA THE MEDIA IS NOT A WISE MOVE FOR LITTLE FLOYD, IT’S LIKE SINK AND SWIM, TOUCH AND GO, HIDE AND SEEK, NOW YOU SEE ME, NOW YOU DON’T MOVE.
IT’S A MOVE LIKE CALLING BY SHOUTING IN THE SHORE OF PACIFIC OCEAN TO ATLANTIC OCEAN. IT’S A CALL FROM SOMEONE WHO IS HIDING HIS TRUE FEELINGS, IN DEFENSIVE MODE.
CALL BOB ARUM, IT’S THE SYSTEM OF TWO WISE AND NORMAL PARTNERSHIP WE SHOULD RESPECT.
@Sean…no offer was ever made. stop it. If an offer had been made that was agreed to, then a contract would’ve been drawn up for both parties to sign.
Besides, Mayweather is his “OWN BOSS”. How come he did not create a contract when Koncz went to his gym or any time after that? How come Team Mayweather won’t even discuss with Arum the prospects of a bigger venue?
That’s because Floyd already chose Guerrero back in October.
@Sean…
precisely. It’s up to the fighters to decide. And when Floyd decided that he would take the rule book in his own hands by blatantly and disrespecting Pacquiao, manny saw that as dishonorable and gave him the middle finger.
Now back to the original argument. Which is a more JUSTIFIED demand based on logic, fact, and reality? The weight penalty or extra testing?
@eman; I offer to start negotiations was sent by the same magistrate judge that mediated their first rounds of discussion and Arum replied via email” he wasn’t interested in making the fight. So Floyd has taken to the airwaves to call Manny out in public.What more can you ask him to do?
Floyd is his OWN BOSS.
Yet Floyd has NOT YET DRAWN UP A CONTRACT and faxed it over to Team Pacquiao.
Maybe Oscar is Floyd’s real boss. lol
Floyd stop the talking, stop your weakazz twitter trash talk and prove to your country that you can take a punch from a real champion.
@way; again stay on topic! I wrote ” both coming in over” was the same thing. I was not referring to testing…
Floyd nor I need proof about Manny being clean or not.Mayweather asked for extra testing,NSAC head honcho said it’s up to the fighters to decide,just like ring size etc. So what’s the problem? Do you need links to anything I am writing?
If Floyd ends up fighting Guerrero, he will lose a lot of respect among boxing insiders, current and ex boxers, the media, and other blacks who say he’s making brothers look bad.
Floyd d u c k e d Cotto ONCE AGAIN!!! Wow.
BOB ARUM IS SO TIRED IN DEALING WITH MAYWEATHER CAMP TO INITIATE THE PACMAN-LITTLE FLOYD FIGHT. IF MAYWEATHER CAMP IS SO SERIOUS ABOUT MAKING THE FIGHT POSSIBLE, THEY SHOULD MAKE A CALL AND TALK DIRECTLY TO BOB ARUM.
BOB ARUM IS A BUSINESSMAN AND IT IS A WASTE OF TIME TO DEAL WITH
THE KIND OF PEOPLE LIKE THE MAYWEATHERS. FOR BOB ARUM, TIME IS MONEY SO HE CONSIDERS OTHER BRAVE AND ABLE BOXERS TO MAKE IT INSIDE THE RING WITH THE PACMAN THAN TO NEGOTIATE AGAIN WITH LITTLE FLOYD PEOPLE.
Sean..
No..it’s not the same thing as asking for extra testing.
Like I said, prove to me that LOGICALLY SPEAKING, it is justified for Floyd to ask for extra testing when Manny has NEVER been caught cheating.
If you can’t prove this, then it’s not the same as asking for extra testing. Because even though Manny doesn’t have to agree to it, it doesn’t change the fact that Floyd demanded something in which he was not in the right grounds to demand.
@Sean
Yes but that’s today. Anything can happen tomorrow. Right now Bob and Pacquiao are still discussing options.
The most recent update is that Pacquiao has told Arum he wants to fight Mayweather on May 26th.
However, despite Floyd calling out Paquiao he still hasn’t contacted Arum and created a contract.
I thought Floyd is his “own boss”?! LOL
If Floyd is serious about this fight, it’s his job as his “own boss” to devise a contract with Al Haymon and make contact with Arum. But Floyd already chose Guerrero.
Too bad. Floyd fooled his fans again.
floyd camp wants arum to negotiate the fight on twiter
@way; rules of engagement
1.Stay on topic…
2.stick to a simple line of logic and reason..
3.do not try to switch topic’s or put words in my mouth!
Now,Manny missed a catch weight of 111 correct? Floyd missed a catch weight of 144 correct? Both were penalized or fined correct? Same thing1 As to asking for extra testing,Manny doesn’t have to get tested and Floyd doesn’t have to fight him.
@way; you are using selective memory! Didn’t Arum say in interview after interview as recently as today ” he’s not making the Mayweather fight ” until November,which means never? Keep up with current event’s! It’s even on sites like phil boxing and examiner. Manny might want to fight,but Bobs no fool!
Sean…you miss the point.
Has Manny ever failed a drug test?
So what gives Floyd the right to demand Olympic Style Testing?
Has Floyd ever missed weight?
So logically speaking, is Manny out of grounds to demand a weight penalty?
Please tell me you’re more intelligent than Phlomo Phaggins
hahaha floyd wasn’t MAN ENOUGH to face the consequences and go to jail so he had to ask the judge for a delay so he can fight the pencil bodied Guerrero.
lol
Floyd knows what all the inmates in jail hate the most – a woman beater.
@way: did Floyd come in over the division max or did he miss a catch weight like Manny? Did Manny pay a penalty like Mayweather? Same thing buddy!
Go ahead and disappear and take a break Phaggins.
Look at yourself in the mirror and you will see a r a c i s t fool who just got schooled and everyone here will read it while you’re away. lol
Like I said, a defeated clown will resort to the race card when cornered like a mouse.
LMFAO
Hungry.
Gonna take a break.
Feel like having some SUSHI.
Bwahahahahahaha.
‘Floyd can ask for anything he wants’
LMAO.
“I will take smaller purse than Floyd”
No response from Team Coward.
“I’ve already agreed to all his tests”
Still no response from Team Coward.
“I’m ready to fight you May 26th on the Las Vegas Strip in front of 50,000 live fans.”
Response from Team Coward: “We have chosen Robert Guerrero.”
LOL
Floyd has to fight a harmless Mexican because Floyd knows the only way he can make money is to fight on a Mexican holiday. LOL
Floyd depends on Mexicans to make money. LMFAO.
Meanwhile, a poll on the internet showed that Pacquiao is more popular in American than the American Floyd.
Gotcha.
What’s that I hear about VisionQwest?
LMAO.
“Gotcha.”
I think that’s what the Japs said when they were raping all those Filipino women.
Or was it the Filipino men?
LMAO.
I’m out!! Catch you idiotas in the morning.
It wont be long til Phlomo Phaggins changes his screen name after I continue to school this r a c i s t clown.
And oh btw…Pacquiao already agreed to any test any time. Thought you knew but since you’re a fool, you like to engage in selective memory.
Gotcha.
@tarugo you still Makapili because you said you like to spend your money there. Now your actually saying you prefer American Items rather then Filipino ones ? no doubt Makapili Hudas.
LMAO.
“Floyd can ask for anything he wants”
Just not drug testing.
LOL.
@Sean…
Floyd can ask for anything he wants. If he wants to impose a weight penalty, so be it.
Point is…Manny will make weight. And Floyd doesn’t care if he does or doesn’t make weight because money aint sh1t to him.
@wayofthedragon: Manny came in over a catch weight of 111 in his fight with Torrencamp,does that mean Mayweather should ask for the same amount?
@big nose d real mongrel: I don’t live in USA, I live in the philippines. I only go there to spend my money to help you financially bec. the chinese owns you now. you are fully indebted to the chinese. they own almost 90% of your gov’t bonds. you know what I saying? idiot mongrel.
LMAO They are everywhere you go, like a plague.
It’s funny how some people bring up the race card when defeated.
In the school of psychology 101, this is called defense mechanism due to insecurity/inferiority complex.
‘Oh it happened 10 years ago, it doesn’t count anymore’
‘Be Filipino, say I won”
LMAO.
Yup. Asian n1gger.
Floyd invests millions in a venture with a casino t y c o o n.
Few months later, casino mogul is arrested for corruption and bribery and Floyd loses millions of dollars as a result of investment gone bad.
What a fool. Didn’t his momma teach him that you are who you hang around with?!
LMAO
No wonder the REAL Asians call Filipinos the Asian n1gger.
LMAO.
@Way Of The Gago
Morales,Cotto,Margarito,De-La Fishnets were all weight drain and beaten up before they fought pacquiao.Oh yeah and Marquez was even over-weight against pacquiao for more than 10lbs pounds.
Hey Phlomo Phaggins…are you talking about what happened at weigh ins from over 10 years ago? LOL
And Pacquiao paid whatever fines were incurred.
Point is…Floyd tried to create his own rules and demands even when Pac had NEVER failed a drug test. And Pac had EVERY RIGHT to demand a weight penalty on Floyd because Floyd had gone overweight before.
You still don’t get it do you. What a phaggin idiot.
HP?
Pac endorses HP Touchpad.
One month later, HP discontinues Touchpad due to poor sales.
HP CEO fired.
LMAO.
@tarugo your Makapili Hudas .Hoy Pinoy Gago, You betrayed your country when you decided to leave your country and live in the US. so take out your American flag. Hoy loko loko ka!
Rules?
Torrecampo?
Singsurat?
Who came in overweight?
AHahahahah
@ big nose d real mongrel: mongrel na baliw pa.
@Big Nose…
NO wonder tarugo is calling you an idiot. lol
You’ve been returned to sender.
Floyd had Canelo and Morales in his undercard and Pacquiao still outdrew him in PPV by a reported 350,000.
Floyd has a chance to fight Martinez, Pacquiao, Cotto OR Canelo and he won’t fight any of them.
Meanwhile…Pac’s last several PPV’s have all been over a million. Nike is his. So are HP and Hennessy.
Pac is the Michael Jordan of boxing. Floyd is Dennis Rodman. lol
big nose d real mongrel : ikaw mongrel na baliw. mongrel.
@tarugo Tanga Bobo Tarantado!
@ big nose d real mongrel; same as my post to bobo to you mongrel.
@Way of the Tanga
S-T-FUP!! Pacquiao is even afraid to even mention the name Mayweather in public.
Floyd denied it because Pacquiao didn’t call him out on HBO after his bout against Marquez. when being ask by Kellerman.
this bobo really hates filipinos bec. he lost in one of pacs fight and has to pay it. he paid it with his ma ma, who was taken in by 20 filipinos. does your ma ma still hurts up to now. dog. LOL
@tarugo English please. I’m not a pinoy.hahaha! your a real Makapili!
“Floyd will have a 10 million pound for pound penalty because he proved it in his fight with Marquez that he can’t follow rules”
“Floyd WILL NOT dictate testing because I never proved I failed a drug test”
See the difference Phaggit? I bet you don’t.
Tell me when you need a rope.
Big Nose…
You are way off dude. Floyd denied saying “Pacquiao was next”. LOL
Meanwhile, Pac has been saying he wanted to fight Mayweather for the last year even while Floyd was semi-retired.

@big nose d real: O nakita mo rin yun hinahanap mo sa youtube, kumag. ikaw mongrel. idiot mama + idiot papa = big nose d real mongrel.
I only been in this site two minutes and I can already tell Phlomo Phaggins is the type of clown who comes back with nonsense insults and talks about people’s mothers every time he’s made to look like a fool.
Tell me Phaggin…why is it that the best Floyd can do is call Pacquiao a “p u n k”?
You know why. Jealousy and Envy, root of all evil.
‘OST? No problem!!!’
‘I want 50/50 split!
‘Yes? Then I want 8oz gloves!’
‘Yes?? Really?? Then I want $10 MILLION PER POUND PENALTY!!!!!’ EVEN THOUGH I CAME IN OVERWEIGHT TWICE MYSELF!!!
‘YES??? NO FIGHT! NO Fight!! How dare you suggest OST??? I SUE YOU!!! FIght you in court!!!
@Way Of The Tanga
Nope your wrong. Mayweather said before facing Ortiz I want Pacquiao next in May5. Then after he saw pacquiao didn’t called him out after his bout with Marquez. Then he decided to take Guerrero for a 2nd option. since Manny didn’t look forward for a Mayweather bout.
From the Japs in WW2, to the ragheads in Iraq, to Floyd Mayweather in the US….
Filipinos sure know how to take a d1ck in the as.s.
=)
“Pac is on Ped’s”
“I want olympic testing although I never done this my entire career”
“No I want 21-day cut off”
“Wait, I mean I want 14-day cut off”
“Make that a 7-day cutoff”
“No. This is what I want. Testing on Pac 24-7 up to the day of the fight.”
“I want $100 million”
“Pac has to train wherever I want him to train”
“Pac you’re next!”
“Oops I didn’t say that”
ROFLMAO!!!!
Oh sure, just like Spadafora was going to be Floyd’s opponent.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.
Uh oh, I think I made the little Pinoy boy go hang himself.
Oh dear, what will his mommy think when she walks in on her little Bobolito hanging from the rafters? Will the sight of his little blue size 4 nikes dangling in mid-air cause her to cry out in grief? Will they cook the family dog as a sacrifice for little Bobolito’s poor soul?
@Big Nose
wake up. Guerrero is the ONLY option. The agreement was made a long time ago when Guerrero first announced that he was a candidate to fight Floyd.
Haymon called Guerrero months ago. That’s why Haymon and Ellerbe kept sayin the “little fella” was next. They couldn’t even STRAIGHT UP SAY PACQUIAO like real men.
Meanwhile, Pacquiao just said ONCE AGAIN this week that he wants, and I quote, “Floyd Mayweather Jr.”
We all know who the man is and who the mouse is…it’s the one who has never met the president.
Gotcha Pachater.
‘I’m scared of needles’
‘I need cutoffs’
‘I need catchweights’
‘USADA is bad’
‘I need to know when the testers are coming’
‘My cut needs 6 months to heal’
‘The MGM is too small’
LMAO.
‘Be FilIpino, say I won”
LMAO.
Is someone crying Phlomo Phaggins?
Are you still crying because you thought Marquez won when IN FACT Pac is 2-0-1 against the chicano?
Looks like it’s not a Pinoy who’s crying tonite.
Gotcha Phaggit.
@Way Of The Tanga
You should know Guerrero is the 2nd option. Because main option is too busy dodging him(pacquiao).
“Pac you’re NEXT”
“Oh no, I didn’t say that. Stop putting words in my mouth!!”
“Pac…step up you P U N K!”
“Oops it wasn’t me. My twitter got h a c k e d!!”
Oh stop it Floyd. You’re almost as c h i l d i s h as my four-year old goddaughter.
lmao at including Guerrero. Ahahahahah.
Floyd fighting Shane when Mosley was P4P#3 and the consensus #1 welter? What did Pac do? “No catchweight, no fight”
“Pac in beast mode, gonna leave no doubt, expect a 1st round KO” = ‘He, ugh, lost his, ugh, focus” after 38yo lightweight JMM schools him for 12 rounds. LMAO.
Poor little Pinoy boy. Cry some more little Pinoy boy.
@tarugo thank you Tarantado!
Hey Flomo Phaggins…
At least Marquez had fought at WW before.
At least Marquez has world c l a s s experience.
What does Guerrero have to bring to the table? LOL
Let’s see if you know you’re boxing. But I can tell you don’t. You’re one of those Phaggin type clowns.
Let’s take a look at Floyd’s last four opponents shall we?
Guerrero – 135 lb champ forced to move up two weight divisions to fight Floyd. Never before has Guerrero fought north of 140.
Ortiz – Overachiever who never before had a high caliber fight.
Mosley – Old man took Floyd to the brink of being humiliated on live TV.
Marquez – Never before fought at 147.
And to top it off, all of Floyd’s opponents are GOLDEN BOY FIGHTERS lol
Get off Pac’s nutz flomos.
@big nose d real: its in youtube. go look for it, its there you i d i o t!
lol u mean like how PacNOBALLS took on 135 pound Marquez? And got schooled like the overrated hypejob that he is?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAH.
‘Oh no the foot stopper!!’
LMAO.
lmao at floyd.
dude just making filipinos the laughingstocks of the world, over and over.
little limp d1ck boys just getting CLOWNED.
Bottom Line: There are NO MORE EXCUSES.
If Floyd doesn’t agree it proves he never wanted to fight Manny all along. To him, $50 million is not enough to risk losing his perfect record.
What’s 3 weeks of waiting? There have been times in the past that Floyd himself got injured and had to delay a fight.
What’s wrong with making $20 million more? Are you that greedy and evil Floyd that you won’t do it just so you’re opponent won’t make more cash? You probably are like that Mr. Mayweather.
Manny has put the ball in Floyd’s court once and for all. Will Floyd be A MAN OR A MOUSE?
It’s obvious Manny wants to win more than his counterpart.
Floyd don’t want none.
Floyd would rather fight 135 lb Guerrero LOL than take on a real champion
@Pac you
You got it the other way around . You need to convince your idol pacquita .He’s fans(Pacnutz) can’t fight for him(pacquita).LMAO!
@Way Of The Dragon
Oh please stop it. Bet your that idiot tagalog who claimed that Bruce Lee was Filipino. hahahahaha! Mas gago ka!
@JesusJones

@FOR REAL
you’re not a real you’re also a fake!!!!!

Oooh it was just a bluff from coward Floyd Jr.But Pacman already said that…ok let’s get it done on May.Don’t blame yourself coward Floyd Jr, you have no choice but to fight Pacman,ok? Just accept it and endure as hard as you can all the power puches from Pacman,ok? But please don’t cry.Bwahahahahaha!
