    Arum said that Mayweather demanded $10 million even before he and the Singaporeans could discuss a possible Pacquiao fight.

    “This guy (Mayweather Jr.) is totally out of his mind,” Arum said.

    Arum said that the Singapore group flew to Los Angeles to negotiate. The Top Rank promoter added the group told him “they never experienced such craziness in their lives.”

    Pacquiao’s adviser Michael Koncz confirmed the meeting, saying: “Mayweather wanted the $10 million up front before he would even talk to them.”

    “There are no excuses this time, nobody to blame,” said Koncz. “He just doesn’t want to fight Manny. Where are you going to get $65 million? Even after tax and everything it would come down to $30 or 40 million and that’s a lot of money.”


    Seriously... WTF! "Give me 10 mil first or no negotiation.

    Right now, we have the words of Arum and Koncz confirming the report and no denials from the Mayweather party. Given Floyd's behaviour pattern, this story may have some truth.

    feel how you want....makes no difference to me.....

    i for one do not believe everrything to come out this guys mouth...

    Its funny how some group in Singapore can contact Floyd to try and make a fight if this is true....but good ol Bobby can't......but he is quick to speak about what somebody else is trying to do to make a fight supposedly.

    You see how quick Bobby is to say in public how they "tried" to make a fight? Well that shows you how much he really wants it because he talked about making a fight with JMM wayyyyyy before the Mosley fight was done and then signed the fight soon as the Mosley fight was done. Not ONCE did he say anything about trying to get a fight with Floyd.

    Now he opens his mouth after JMM/Pac is a go only to say "some group from Singa fukkin pore" made an offer to Floyd....not Arum....but Singafukkinpore......you guys kidding me?

    Ontop of this....who are these people? What have they done? Do you guys just accept random deals from random people because the money looks good?
