*******s leading up to the fight were upset with the offer saying that Mayweather lowballed him and the fact Manny is getting (according to Bob Arum) $30 Million for this fight proves it. Manny just lost at least $10 Million if not much more because Marquez 4 could have happened regardless if Manny got dominated or stopped by Mayweather. Bob Arum literally goofed like he did with Lopez-Gamboa.
I respectfully disagree. Mayweather is a goddamn business genius. He now sits alone at the top-- people will still pay to see Pac-Mayweather and the negotiating ball is entirely in his court. He has a Marquez rematch on the cards, Canelo, Bradley-- thats 4 focking mega-scale PPVs to choose from. He perfected the role of the villain through a cautious defensive style, which equals longetivity, which equals higher total career earnings, all without being attached to a shady promoter.
they've both lost the biggest payday they could ever have had. lets hope now pac's been beaten, this sorry and pathetic state of affairs between the two of them (as well as bob arum), can be put to bed. the fight was never gonna happen from day one, can you imagine ali and frazier acting like this? great fighters, fight other great fighters, leonard-hearns, leonard-hagler, pryor-arguello etc, manny and floyd, for whatever reason, did'nt.
