"In an exclusive interview with FightSaga, former WBA Light Heavyweight Champion Eddie Mustafa Muhammad asserted his venture, Yamani Sports and Entertainment, is prepared to offer over $100 million USD for Mayweather vs Pacquiao to be held no later than November" http://www.fightsaga.com/news/item/1816-Group-Prepared-to-Offer-Over-$100-Million-USD-for-Pacquiao-vs-Mayweather looks like floyd found his guarantor. Unfortunately the fight would not take place on may 5.
Non-starter. 1. Top Rank and Golden Boy aren't about to let go of promotional control of such an event. 2. $100 million split equally means $50 million to each side. That's not going to all the boxer, he also have to give money to trainer, promoter, etc. So Pacquiao and Mayweather in such a proposal would be making somewhere between $40-45 million I assume. Probably too low for both sides.
This fight does not need investors. HBO GBP and Top Rank have more than enough Money to make this happen. Did DLH-PBF need outside investors??
Right..... some company we never heard of needs to be used to back the biggest fight ever when they havent been able to show they can handle a friday night fights level event. That is like hiring the contractor that put up a fence around your back yard to build a skyscraper. Floyd said some random muslim dude came knocking on his door saying he was in charge of the fight now. That was Arums remark about Floyd talking to 'investors' WTF And its more than a month old but I still cant get over the fact that they tried to bring Joe Jackson into it. I mean really, WTF. This is like a cheesy 80s movie.
