Karceno: Alright, so what about this Tim Bradley issue, they are saying that you guys were using Bradley's name to attach it to Mayweather's but I never heard you say that?

Arum: "We are trying to make another Tim Bradley fight. We never discussed with anybody about Tim Bradley trying to fight with Mayweather...Never!"

Karceno: I don't know where they got that.

Arum: "He's making that s*** up because he's having problems with Guerrero. You tell Guerrero, I'm not discussing a fight for Tim Bradley to fight Mayweather, it's all a smokescreen."

Karceno: Glad you cleared that up, beause I know I have never heard about it before from you.

Arum "No, We have never talked about, and no one has even spoke to us about it. The only thing we have spoke about was a March 16th return."

Karceno: That's right and if you guys went public and said Bradley is returning on March 16th, how could he possibly fight on May 4th?

Arum: "They put it on us!, What they want to do is bluff Guerrero!

Karceno: So that's what the real issue is.

Arum: "Yeah they want bluff Guerrero saying 'Hey Bradley is going to fight Mayweather, so you better sign for short money' ...Guerrero is the only guy out there for Mayweather to fight."

Karceno: yep and he doesn't want to take the short money.

Arum: "No and I don't blame him...Well I'm over here in China , you know we just signed Zou Shiming two time Olympic gold medal winner."

karceno: Yeah I've heard 

Arum: "We are headed to Macau on April the 6th"

Karceno: Yeah that's huge because he is like Yao Ming over there.

Arum: "Yeah he and Yao Ming are like icons here in China, and remember they are more wealthy people here in china than the United States and remember that they are 1.4 billion of Chinese people so there is a big big market."

Karceno: Definitely, just look at what the NBA did with that market for Jeremy Lin, now he is even a big star over here.

Arum: "Well the NBA is covered tremendously over here.

Karceno: You think they would come out and support Zou, they are going to be all over it.

Arum: " We had a press conference the other day in Beijing, and we had over 100 media outlets.It was unbelievable 25 television cameras. It was just incredible."

Karceno: Well I know you are going to do great with his career, look at what you guys did with Manny's career.

Arum: "Yeah, and the day after the SuperBowl he will be arriving in Las Vegas, that's where he will do his training."
