    Default What kind of negotiations exactly were these?

    Arum knows basically nothing on Floyd's side and never even talked to anyone from Golden or Al Hayman directly once... Apparently they went through Ross Greenburg, but this seemed like a really sketchy sequence of negotiations. He also won't disclose anything about what the contratual agreements were. At least we know that this fight can still be made, but that only exclusivity is officially over.

    Arum also made a good point about the fact that Floyd might want to wait for the fate of Roger before going forward with his career. But I am really choked .

    So basically Arum just said "I wont have contact with Mayweather whatsoever but ill put a clock on my website saying he has to make a fight with me till that time and the media will eat it up" and they did. What kinds of negotiations were they? None whatsoever.

    So I can put a clock on my myspace page daring Pacquiao to fight me and if he doesn't respond by midnight next week that makes him a coward and a ducker of me based on Arums logic and what he just did

    Yes basically Arum knows something still its disclosed to public. Well its every promoters dream to this fight, it could be the biggest draw money wise, could be fight of the decade or a first of first half of the century fight that's why he's pushing through. Everybody in boxing community, fans knows this and want this fight to make it happened.

    The problem is Floyd know this... he's not blind or deaf for sure and its been a hot topic for a couple months, it almost done deal before but sadly just collapse...he could walk away with easy money and win easily with Pacquiao. Man really i dunno what he's doin right now just for fans sake.

    Tell me, honestly. Would pacroid do a fight without freddie roach in his corner?

    Shall I certify you and idiot now or later?

    Floyd is the best because he doesn't cut corners. He only goes into the ring knowing he's done everything right. He want's no distractions. He ain't going to do anything until the uncle roger situation is sorted.

    Everyone is an idiot to you because they have a different opp ones that usually make sense......A fighter may not want to go into a fight without thier longtime trainer but if need be it must be......DEAL WITH IT THATS WHAT THE ELITE DOES....What if Freddie retired tommorow do you believe Manny would?............

    C'mon man you talk out of your ass once again

    Roach only trained Pacquiao for first two weeks when Roach was busy in pre Mayweather-De la Hoya fight. Roach almost didn't show up in the Pacquiao-Solis bout. But there was no such news, or even rumor that Pacquiao wouldn't go on without Roach in his corner. So to answer your question... IMHO... Yes, more likely Pac will fight without Roach. And you can get rid of your alt "milmascaras" now before both youse get banned.

    Actually it wasnt Arum who was doing the negotiations, it was the head of HBO Ross Greenburg who was the mediator, between Al Haymon for Mayweather and Arum for Pacquiao...both parties had agreed to 14 day drug testing and a 50/50 split, contract were made, Pacquiao signed his end of the paperwork and all that was left was Mayweathers signature for his side of the paperwork that he agreed upon...unfortunately Mayweather changed his mind. It wasnt about the drug testing or the purse split, Mayweather recently said at a charity event sposored by Alonzo Mourning that he didnt want to think of boxing this year and that retirement was on his mind again.
