    I also dont care how much they make and just want to see the fight.

    Im saying stop taking Manny seriously when he says he only fights to give the fans what they want, and doesnt care about how much money he makes.

    We both know he cares. We both know this challenge is media lip service. We both know a man whose assets are seized by the government he works for is NOT in a position to donate all his earnings anyway. Lets stop with this playing both sides.

    Still the most hes ever made, still hasnt close to that. could use that 40 mil now.

    heres the thing. Mayweather actually shut his damn mouth in his pride for 50-50 which nobody thought he would ever do just to make the Pacquiao fight, all he wanted was random drug test. Pac turned it down.

    Most of the time if you turn down a smoking deal u wont get the same offer twice! Thats anything in life. Turn down a smoking deal on car and try to come back a year and a half later and get the same deal, LOST YOUR DAMN MIND!

    So 40 mil was the next offer he turned that down also.

    what should he get now. 30 mil??

    The offer was an insult no matter how you slice it ..Floyd knew he wasn't going take that deal ,and to be honest could you blame him he is the 2nd biggest PPV draw in boxing !

    The drug testing went back and forth then Manny agrees now what he has to leave his promoter ? Where was that concern when Floyd agreed to the 50-50 split and the random testing ? The nonsense has got to stop Floyd makes the most money with this fight ,2nd to the rematch with Oscar had he accepted it ..All this bs has to end and the fight needs to be made !

    Floyd dint know Pac would say no. Just like people said that somehow Mayweather knew Manny would say no to drugtesting and thats how he got off the fight! Gimme a break.

    here's the thing about Arum. do u think he really wants to make the fight?? Everybody trys to blame Floyd but what have u ever seen that makes u think Arum wanted to make the fight? How about right after the Rios fight arum said manny is back on April 12th. so how did mayweather duck him?? How come Arum didnt say "April 12th is a date if we cant the Mayweather fight done" NOPE Arum is snake.

    Fight needs to be made but wont happen with Arum

    Floyd doesn't need a PAC fight, I mean PAC showed he was a lesser man than Marquez on many occasions in the ring, what hope does he have against Floyd.

    It's a joke to think that Floyd who is currently the 147 and 154 champion needs manny PAC who doesn't even have a WBo belt to bring to the table.

    Floyd is fighting young champions who gave titles, when was the last time PAC took another champions title? Cotto?

    Floyd has over 15 title defenses throughout his five weight class journey second only to sweet peas 18!

    PAC has a total of 5 title defenses for all eight weight classes! PAC never dominated any division! The guy is media created the real ATGs have dominated at least one weight class manny was never skilled enough to do that.

    Floyd has four fights left which means four more title defenses surpassing sweet peas 18 so haters hate Its going to be an awesome ride

    Mayweather doesn't fight for boxing fans. He fights for $$$ simple as that. Seriously we're not going to see the mega fight between Mayweather vs. Pacquiao happen. All I can say is Thanks, PACMAN for at least trying to make the bout happen on even bases. Not like Money May who tried to make the fight happen, but on his terms. Manny Pacquiao the greatest fighter of this generation.

    :lol:hahahah floyd will keep ducking

    The only way he can avoid facing me in the ring is to retire from boxing." -

    but floyd can not retire this time he is locked in on a contract with showtime

    i feel sorry for his kids they gonna get bullied saying their daddy is a coward maybe then he might change his mind

    See, you're not getting it... Floyd says only Ellerbe and Haymon negotiate. He has said that many times... so Floyds phonecall, by his own definition was not a valid offer.
    If Pac called Floyd and said he would take 20 30 or 40 mil and "we'll settle the other stuff later" Floyd would say "talk to Al and Leonard".

    IT WASNT A LEGIT OFFER OR NEGOTIATION.

    idiot, thats because youre dumb as ****.

    fight is projected to get into the 3kk+ ppv buys.

    at 85 a pop, 100 for hd, thats easilly ~250kk-300kk for the ppv alone.

    floyd gets half of that ~125-150kk (-40kk offer to pac), he gets in the 100kk +/- net excluding other sources of revenue.

    pac meanwhile has to contend with tax and arum's cut, so in effect a net somewhere in ~20kk range which is not far from what he is getting already.


    about the drug testing ****. this is old as **** and being regurgurated over and over again.

    pac did not refuse osdt. THEY COULDN'\T AGREE ON THE BLOODTEST CUTOFF, presumably with pac's reservation on blood getting drawn close to a fight bec of his experience int he morales fight.. urine test was agreed til the day of. now pac has overcame his weird experience with blood stuff.

    drug testing issue is closed, done and over with now.

    floyd, recent interview in africa, "they didnt see eye to eye in the terms". if you can not deduce he was referring to the blood test/drug testing issue, then, maybe, yeah, youre really dumb./

    arum, just like any other promoter, wants money.

    give him enough and he will capitulate.

    look at dela hoya. he sold out canelo(helping convincing canelo to get drained). but in exchange they got 2-3 ppv scheds for canelo, on top of canelo's usual share on the pppv buys./

    arum has already given up the venue (the stadium is nothing but his way of not ceding the venue, which obviously he has given up in the long run), he is not going to get duped into letting pac accept fix amount.
