Bob Arum
By Johnny Benz, Doghouse Boxing - Recently quoted by the Las Vegas Review Journal, Boxing promoter Bob Arum reaffirmed he wants a fight with his fighter Manny Pacquiao against Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr.  Arum also blasted Richard Schaefer (CEO of Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions) as a man who is deseprate because he has not stake in "Pacman" vs. "Money".

Regarding a fight with Pacquiao and "Money" Mayweather, quoted by the publication, Arum stated: "Why would I not want that fight to happen? Manny wants it. Boxing fans want it. The media wants it."

When discussing Schaefer, (Golden Boy has represented Mayweather in past fights), Arum told the Vegas based publications: "(Schaefer) is desperate because he has no stake whatsoever right now in a fight between Pacquiao and Mayweather." Arum went on to add: "Now if Floyd wants Schaefer and Golden Boy involved, that's up to Floyd. He's his own man."

Arum had more to say!

Arum was also quoted by another publication, USA Today. Arum stated: "I'll tell you the truth. My guy (Pacquiao) wants that fight. He really wants that fight. I want that fight. And I want it to happen next. I believe Floyd wants that fight to happen. Now how it happens, how we go about doing it, that's a little difficult. The difference in personalities between Manny and Floyd is just tremendous. Hopefully, we'll be able before the new year to bridge that gap and make that fight happen."

Can you imagine a deal between "Money" Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao being hammered out before the New Year? Yeah, neither can I.
