Wait a sec.. what about Rigondeaux? These two party's could not do Floyd/Manny FFS!

It's down right confusing, I swan, you don't know what to believe these days.
Everyone is learning, it's much easier to buy Arum off than to deal with him, and it would clarify Arum's attitude toward his fighters, if he takes the deal.
Arum could hang out a shingle, "Fighters for Rent", if he takes the deal.

Donaire vs Mares should be a good fight. Plus could be a stepping stone for future TP vs GBP fights.

Schaefer is developing a pathological hatred of Arum. This is a my dick's bigger than yours offer to Arum, it values the fight at far more than its probable commercial value. Maybe Arum now offers more and the fighters end up getting the benefit of feuding promoters trying to show they're the top dog. It's going to be interesting to see Arum's reply.

If the offer is real, why did Schaefer put in the media? Makes it less likely to actually happen. Although in my opinion it is unlikely, if he is really offering $3 million for the fight, and Bob can't match it, he should let Donaire fight Mares under a Golden Boy banner.
