Let's look at the timeline chronologically to hear what was said by both
First of all, there's never been any formal talks or "serious discussion" about this fight, per Lomachenko when he was asked in another interview later. Arum naturally wants to see them fight. Months back, Pac told Fight Hype that he could still make 135, which he also told them a year prior and was reminded of. This interview with Manny is what got the rather premature Pac-Loma talk started in the first place. So, Fight Hype reminded Manny what he had told them before and Pac confirmed that he could still make 135 when asked about fighting Lomachenko specifically at that weight. Pac said that when he eats regularly/normally (less rice) he's only about 140 to 141 pounds. Lomachenko is around 138 in shape and about 140 when he's not scheduled for a fight.
This is the initial video interview dated October 26th, 2016 that Pac gave to Fight Hype
Days later, Loma was asked about fighting Pac by Fight Hub TV. He was told by Fight Hub TV that Arum said Pac would come down to 135 for him and he raises his eyebrows, gladly surprised and intrigued. He answers in English and says that if it's at 135 then "it's good", he's in. When asked about if he could do it at 140, he said "140 is not my weight". He then gives a timetable of about 1 to 1½ years due to him having Walters as his next opponent at the time and still looking to title hunt at 130, looking to settle unfinished business with Salido, etc. But, most recently, he said in about 8 months to a year to fight Pac is doable in the video that I posted to respond to your claim. Loma said that fighting Mikey Garcia is more realistic in that vid I posted because he'd only have to move up one division and he's already planning to move up to 135 anyway.

Word got back to Roach through the media that Loma was interested in fighting Pac down the line at 135. Roach and Arum both agreed that Pac could make the weight but Roach didn't recommended it, wisely, and said Loma would only get the fight if it's at 140. Pac is the A-side and his team gets the final say. Nobody would want to see a drained 135 pound Pac fighting Lomachenko anyway. It's either at 140 or they don't fight at all.
Lomachenko never made any demands, he simply stated that he could meet Manny at 135 down the line after being told that Manny would come down to Lightweight just to fight him, per Arum. Bob either outright lied or he misunderstood what Manny said about being able to make 135 for them to conceivably meet. Loma is interested in fighting Pac, Pac is interested in fighting him. Arum's grand plan is for them to fight at the end of the year but it'll likely be early-to-mid 2018. His agenda isn't secret. He wants to see the torch passed to Lomachenko or Crawford, in that order.
