阿鲁姆告诉马尼拉公报,他的公司也参加了帕奎奥 - 马特西冠军争夺战。帕奎奥的MP推广将主办这场比赛,而阿鲁姆的顶级推广和德拉霍亚的金童推广将提供技术协助。现在,所有的一切都要依靠马来西亚的金融家来提供物流服务。
阿鲁姆说;“我认为曼尼仍然被认为是世界上最优秀的战士之一,但是你知道,当一个战士变老的时候,年轻的战士就会出现并取代他们的位置。如果他赢了,他告诉我,他想要和许多人认为是世界上最优秀的战士的洛马琴科战斗”。
在4月18日和稍后在吉隆坡和其他马来西亚之旅的启动新闻发布会上,阿鲁姆将向马尼拉派出顶级推广的首席运营官布拉德.雅各布代表他。
“I think Manny is considered one of the best fighters in the world. But you know, as a fighter gets older, the younger fighters come up and they take their place. So Manny is still one of the bestfighters in the world. And if he wins, he told me he wants to fight (Vasyl) Lomachenko who many people say is the best fighter in the world.”
Arum still believes that Pacquiao’s stamina could still match with that of Matthysse. But warns that age could be a disadvantage. “Athletics in any sports is a cruel business because when you get older, you don’t get better.”
Arum told the Manila Bulletin that his company is also on board on the Pacquiao-Matthysse title fight. Pacquiao’s MP Promotions will spearhead the match while Arum's Top Rank and De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions will provide the the technical assistance. Everything now depends on the Malaysian financiers of the event to deliver the logistics.
“Over on this side of the ocean, everything is on board,” said Arum. “I really hope this fight happens.”
Arum will send Brad Jacobs, Top Rank’s chief operating officer, to Manila to represent him during the kickoff press conference on April 18 and later in Kuala Lumpur and other Malaysian tour. |
