Mayweather leaving Arum had to happen.

It's been coming for the past two years.

It all came to a head with the Gatti fight...Mayweather was bailing out then...why do you think that the now shows @ the pressers were happening.

Arum was forking over the cash for Floyd's legal problems.

Arum paid him out & he took the fight & everyone got rich.

If people didn't see this coming...then you just have to recognize that boxing's full of snakes just sliding by each other waiting to see who get's bitten first.

You can recognize the facts...Floyd was meeting with Oscar back at the pressers for Oscar vs Mayorga & swapping words with Hopkins, Mosley, & Oscar.

Remember back...Mayorga slung words at everyone @ the presser but Mayweather. I know you peeps read that...anyways...it wouldn't surprise me if Floyd signed with Hopkins & Oscar...or if he just opened up with his own gig co-promoting the fight...Floyd's looking waaaaaaaaaaay down the road.

The problem now is this...if he's truly cut loose from Arum...Margarito will now most likely NOT happen.

Why would Bob Arum risk any of his few remaining earners (Margarito / Cotto) to a loss at the hands of two (Floyd / Oscar) of his biggest earners?
