Arum Tries To Negotiate For Pacquiao-Mayweather 2 Match
Pacquiao-Mayweather 2 – Top Rank Promotions CEO Bob Arum recently revealed that he tried to reach out for both retirees, Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. for a rematch between the two boxing icons.
In a report by Philstar, Arum admitted that he had talks with Mayweather’s camp adviser Al Haymon about a rematch between the two boxing icons this 2016. According to the interview, they were hoping to have the same financial success when the two superstars clashed last May 2015.
But, Mayweather’s adviser Al Haymon told Arum that the latter was happy with his retirement and currently has no intention to get back in the ring this year.
After the said “richest boxing match” ever, both the fighters fought once more. Mayweather fought Andre Berto last September 2015 while Pacquiao had the third and final match against Timothy Bradley last April 2015.
Manny Pacquiao, after his last fight said that he will be focusing on his political career, as well as give more time for his family.
But, the talks about Pacquiao’s comeback just became louder these past days as Bob Arum the now Senator Manny Pacquiao will be leaving from the Philippine Senate to prepare for his comeback.
This was then denied by Manny Pacquiao saying that he will prioritize his service to his countrymen and if he will be fighting again, he said that he will do it with conflicting his legislative duties.
He posted a statement on his Facebook account just recently denying the statements done by Arum earlier.

I will bet for Manny Pacquiao against Floyd Mayweather my whole monthly pension for the proposed 2nd fight before the end of 2016 provided that the following conditions must be religiously followed : >>1. LEGAL WELTERWEIGHT LIMIT MUST BE OBSERVED.>>2. USE THE SMALLER RING .>> 3. BOTH PHYSICAL EXAM RESULT MUST BE ANNOUNCED BEFORE THE FIGHT .>> 4. FIGHT WILL BE HELD IN PHILIPPINES ,. EITHER MANILA OR DAVAO . >>5. REF. MUST BE A FILIPINO . >> 6. AS THE CHOICE . >> 7. MOMMY DIONESIA WILL SIT AT THE RINGSIDE THRU THE WHOLE FIGHT . >> As usual all other guidelines in the Official International Boxing Rules & Regulations will prevail . If Manny was not hurt during the first fight in Las Vegas this will not happen . ( I don’t think so if this gonna be a title fight or it might be only 10 rds., maybe ) no probs as long as Manny will win this time ), he , he , !
good luck !
