    Hmm. Interesting. I always thought 'parki' was just a short term for Pakistani.

    I had no idea it was on the same spectrum as the N word.

    Dumb move by Arum. Surely it would make more sense to give the next big star in your stable a high profile fight so that he can cross over into the mainstream.

    Not Saying he's Racist, but Bob Arum HASN'T Seemed Terribly Interested in Actually MARKETING a Black Fighter for Quite Some Time Now...

    Arum's "Promoting" of Floyd Mayweather Bordered on NEGLIGENCE, as Evidenced by the Level of Acclaim Floyd Garnered, Sans Arum...Arum's NEVER Went Out of his Way to Get Guillermo Rigondeaux a MEANINGFUL Fight Either, Choosing Instead to BURY his Ass on Spanish Speaking or Asian Speaking Undercards...

    It's Doubtful Arum Gives a Fuck about Terrance Crawford's Career, to the Degree he SHOULD...

    The thing is, Bradley is a risk for Pacquiao today.

    No guarantee Manny wins that now.

    I think Berto is a Haymon fighter.

    But this is disappointing nevertheless. I should have known it wouldn't be Crawford. But I'd have even settled for Pacquiao-Matthyssee because both are coming off losses and it would be a fight of the year candidate based on the ACTION alone.

    I'd rather Bradley have fought Cotto or someone else.

    Lose-lose fight for Pacquiao.

    Yeah, AND???:scratcher:...

    Bradley LACKS the POWER, TALENT, SKILLSET and Captivating PERSONALITY to Have Ever Been Legitimately "Marketable"...

    The fact that Arum said that Bradley is "more marketable" than Crawford tells us how much he values TC.

    I think it is precisely because Arum has high hopes for Crawford that he did not make the Pacquiao fight. If he thinks for one second Pacquaio could win, why would he make the fight? He is probably going to build Crawford up on HBO with low risk fights.

    I doubt TC will become a mainstream name unless he beats a star opponent.

    who said he will not beat a main stream star? i am not saying categorically that tr would keep him out of such challenges. i am just saying they may be skipping pacquiao for now because they do not like his chances to win that one.
