They always will, they will say some **** about Floyd being the best (which will make me vomit) and say that Pacquiao is being greedy and dig up their old name for him "Pay Day" Pacquiao.
It's his way of playing hard to get and hyping this thing up. How did Leonard make Hagler-Leonard so big, even though both were past their best? By saying "I will never fight Hagler" for years.
I would not doubt it, Ivan Calderon actually called Floyd out on his always wanting to fight smaller people and said if Floyd wants to fight smaller people to fight him.
He doesn't want to fight Period. I know this is serious business, professional fighting and you risk your health for a good payday... But if you don't want to get a crack at the Glory of the moment, want to make it happen, what's the purpose anyways? He doesn't want to fight Cotto, he doesn't want to fight Shane, he doesn't want to fight for long, now he doesn't want to split a purse with Pacquiao and make it happen. I'm sorry, this is the same as Roy Jones and the rematch with Bernard, Roy didn't want for less than 60-40 and now Floyd doesn't want it. What else?
So much for Floyd's so-called "hitlist" He doesnt wanna fight Mosley. He doesnt wanna fight Cotto. He doesnt wanna go 50/50 with Pac. Who else is there? Does his hitlist consist of: Nonito Donaire Ivan Calderon Vic Darchinyan
I hope this fight does happen. It could be that Floyd is in fact setting up future negotiations, after all he did say he wouldn't fight Hatton and did. He did also bring in more cash in his fights with de la hoya/hatton than Pacquiao did, so maybe rejecting a 50/50 isn't that bad of an idea. As far as saying he is broke, there is no source for that information and i am pretty sure he will always be in the money.
Floyd himself said it. According to NY Newsday: Floyd Mayweather Jr said Top Rank's Bob Arum is greedy for even thinking about a 50/50 split.
The history says that during the Duran/Hagler fight, Dundee and Leonard were at ringside and Leonard turned to Dundee and said we can beat this guy. Get me a fight with him.
Can someone lease explain this to me.....ok he lost to the great morales(and then ko'd him twice) who has mayweather fought anywhere near the level of morales, let alone pacquiao??
my point above is okay, he has a loss to the great morales. Mayweather hasnt fought anyone on morales' level so how can he talk?
