The Martinez/ Cotto winner has to be in Floyd's sights :-\

Pac-Bradley winner has to tell Arum to step aside :mad:
Cause Floyd was gonna work with him if Pac took the 40 mil, he was gonna work with him if Pac took the test. Its just another in a long list of excuses that everyone involved has made time and time again.Quote:

It's possible that in trying to negotiate that fight that Floyd was reminded of how much he hates Arum because of his dirty thieving manipulative ways and then decided that he would never do business with him again...Quote:

I think Floyd was willing to work with Arum but Arum jerked him around with the "fear of needles" - no drug testing and the 50/50 split purse and the we're building a stadium for the fight bullshit and Floyd decided that he's had enough and has walked away from Arum forever. Floyd certainly doesn't need Arum to be the highest paid athlete on the planet. Why would he help give him any money?!

I guess what I'm trying to say is, if Arum disappeared off the face of the earth tomorrow I don't think we would be any closer to this fight.
If Arum disappeared off the face of the earth tomorrow and Manny agreed to the testing and took $40 million then I think the fight would take place in September. Thats assuming he beats Bradley... If he loses to Bradley then he's only making $12 million. HAHAHA...Quote:

I don't think he's getting 40 right now. 40 was before Juan face planted him. If he'll take 12 he'll get it done with or without ArumQuote:

Floyd is fighting his last few fights in the comfort zone of welterweight. He does not care about legacy and competitiveness. Joe Calzaghe fought 2 undefeated young fighters and 2 legends at their weight. That is how you go out in style. Floyd should fight a light middle and face Lara.
Floyd is a waste of time, talent and space.
