It was a factual post, the Ghost is far more dangerous a fight than Alexander, it's a good matchup, Floyd wont take that fight.

guerrero must be thinking, "i'm on par or better than bradley".

Exactly - Mayweather arguing over $1.5m when he's going to get over $30m. Guerrero has earned his shot at WW, ...sometimes you're not paying for the fanbase only, you're also paying for the quality of opponent as people want to see a contest. Guerrero is worth that considering his performance against Berto and the fact he is the WBC mandatory challenger. Anyone who defends Floyd again is an idiot!

Floyd can't make money without an opponent in front of him so he needs to pay up. No one wants to watch Mayweather at MGM shadow boxing - actually I correct myself. If Floyd stated his shadow was a great fighter and it will be a great show his fans would still buy it on PPV, the idiots!

You can see exactly why the Pacquiao fight was never made - people still under the illusion of blaming Pacquiao are in dreamland - even Arum wasn't the biggest obstacle, it's Mayweather's greed and inflated opinion of himself

Looks like 92% to 8% purse split.

floyd is just thinking where else is guerrerro going to make 2.5mm?

because he certainly is not going to make 4mm fighting anyone else.

also, if he loses, there goes the 2.5 mm. berto knows something about that and so does canelo(why hes demanding a fight with floyd before fighting trout or any other ranked jmw).

floyds a damn good businessman, something some of you guys will never be. him making 30 mm has absolutely nothing to do with him leaving an additional 1.5mm on the table. and since floyd loves to gamble, who says he doesnt have a couple grand with one of his buddies on how low he can get rg to go? as a fellow gambler, let me tell you that this is a distinct possiblity.

and if you dont like who he fights, dont pay for his ppv.

im not happy with floyd/guerrero but robert is a ranked ww and a interim belt holder so there is nothing you can do.

Sounds about right especially if Ghost is making 3x his previous high.

RG better take that 2.5 mill

but rg won't make 2.5 mill right now unless he's fighting floyd and he won't get paid 4 mill fiighting anybody else.

yep. next thing you know devon alexander will be asking for 5 mill

The Ghost is the most viable opponent for Floyd on Cinco De Mayo for these reasons:
-FLoyd gets mandatory taken care of

-Much better PPV because everyone wants to witness an upset

-Mexican fans will buy any ppv with mexican fighters

- A bigger overall payday than Devonca ever bring on Cinco De Mayo.

People on here have already addressed the two biggest questions Guerrero is facing when negotiating a fight with Mayweather, is it about the money or the opportunity. Do you pit more stock in the opportunity to hand Mayweather his first loss, and accept the 2.5, or do you risk losing the opportunity by sticking to your demand or counter offer of 4 mil? If I'm Guerrero I take the 2.5 and the opportunity.....but I'm not.

[Bulletproof]

Rob is gonna regret not taking the 2.5!! Didn't Winky turn down 7 mil or something like that for a re-match with Taylor? These clowns need to take the money when they can get it!!!!!!!
