2443805, Arum's been a disgrace yet again. Manny's legacy takes a huge hit
Posted by Vex_id, Sun May-10-15 03:50 PM
For Arum to go out there right after the fight and try to make his
manufactured case about Manny's elbow was absurd, and there was
real tension between Roach and Arum in that presser, as Roach refused
to co-sign what Arum was saying on the specifics of the injury. There's
no doubt that Pac got injured at some point, but there's a real doubt as
to how it happened and how long he sustained through the injury in camp.

Manny also failed to show the requisite respect to the clear winner of the fight.
Floyd showed nothing but respect for Manny afterwards and would have
absolutely granted a rematch - but Pac's refusal to be gracious in defeat
may have cost him a shot at the rematch, and I don't blame Floyd for not
wanting to do business w/ Arum's manipulative team.
