Arum says Pacquiao-Mayweather rematch talks ‘all BS’

What Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather Jr. rematch?

Top Rank CEO Bob Arum said reported talks regarding a potential sequel of the May 2 megafight are all bull.

Arum, talking to Yahoo! Sports Kevin Iole, responded to an AFP report where Pacquiao supposedly said that his team is negotiating for a rematch.

“I will fight anybody, anywhere. I’m probably going to fight before the election,” Pacquiao was quoted as saying.

“I have no idea what he’s talking about,” Arum told Iole. “He said it, not me. But I have had no talks with anyone about that. None. Zero. Not one.”

Arum added Mayweather’s retirement after the Andre Berto fight would prevent the rematch and that a fight in Dubai is something Money would never approve of.

“Mayweather is retired and I take him at his word. But second, you know there is no way that Mayweather is ever going to fight in the Gulf, even if he did decide to fight again, so it’s all bullsh*t.”
