    same reason it's been 5 years since Floyd fought someone outside Golden Boy. Promoters like control

    No just for this fight, and if he win's for a 4th fight..

    Independent like Mosely.... Jmm had lawyers fine comb the contract...

    no. he actually signed for a fight with pacquiao and joining Top Rank is not needed for this. he made sure of this when he reviewed the contract along with his lawyers so that arum has no hidden option on him after the pacquiao fight. but he has an option to rematch pacquiao for $10M if he beats pacquiao or i think it has a rematch clause. i would try to look for that article...

    as for TR putting jmm on their site, they have done the same for mosley but that doesn't mean that they are actually TR fighters. they are more free-Agents than anything else.

    *late reply

    well firstly nobody mentioned floyd but you

    but in which case, he doesnt fight for golden boy specifically... he has his own company



    but it seems like this jew bob arum is really taking advantage of these poor guys... its disgusting

    GBP cannot match TR offer.

    of course they are


    but its logical that gbp doesnt make off floyd what arum is making off pacman and jmm



    either like jet said gbp cant match the offer or it was no top rank no fight

    yes, just like what cotto did, mosley did and what bradley needs to do.

    off topic question.

    I saw a pic of JMM in Manila and he was with Beltran.

    Why does it seem like Beltran only work with TR/Arum??

    idk... the way its looking... it was most likely "sign with top rank for peanuts and get your chance at redemption or no fight at all"

    FAILURE

    Marquez is guaranteed 5 million plus a share of the PPV sales

    he got "peanuts" fighting Floyd

    well, since floyd hes had some good wins... diaz, katsidis, and lets not forget his spectacular 1st round ko loool


    dont you guys think 5 million is peanuts to fight the pacman when youve earned the right to much more after 60 tough fights?



    and also, all these figures in boxing that people throw around about '5 million, 100 million' are the ones we all talk about... but realistically we all dont know whats really stated on the contracts

    yeah just like mosley was, but its basically him doing this to fight pac, after that he wont stick around with tr I think.
    Allthough I wouldnt mind it because then we can get rios vs marquez.
