    Recently Richard Schaefer of GBP reached out to Al Haymon to put together a fight between Floyd Mayweather & Shane Mosley. Schaefer offered 8 million dollars, but Mayweather responded with a counter offer of 20 million dollars. Bob Arum said that as long as Floyd is making outrageous offers there will never be a fight between Floyd & Pacquiao.

    "Look, Golden boy went to Mayweather about fighting Shane Mosley and he wanted 20 million guaranteed, He is so ******** way out of line that it is rediculous. Nobody and no fight, against manny or any one else out there is going to get him a 20 million dollar guarante. Could he work hard an earn 20 million if a fight wiht manny did well, yeah, that is possible but nobody is going ot give mayweather that kind of money to fight pacquiao, Mosley or jesus christ. So is it possible that Mayweather will come back, I say yes but his expectations are just to unreasonable"

    Thoughts?

    I dont blame him for asking that much but it's also an excuse of pricing himself out :good

    FORMER pound-for-pound champion Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s demand for a guaranteed prize is too much, even for a fight against superstar Manny Pacquiao, currently the world pound-for-pound king. Top Rank boss Bob Arum on Wednesday said a Mayweather comeback is possible, but the American demanded $20 million for a fight with Golden Boy Promotions fighter Shane Mosley.
    Those figures baffled Arum.
    “Look, Golden Boy went to Mayweather about fighting Shane Mosley and he wanted a $20-million guarantee,” said Arum.
    “He is so bleeping way out of line that it is ridiculous. Nobody and no fight, against Manny or anyone else, is going to get him $20-million guarantee,” he added.
    “Could he work hard and earn $20 million if a fight with Manny did well, yeah, that is possible. But nobody is going to give Mayweather [the chance] to fight Pacquiao, Mosley or Jesus Christ,” Arum said.
    “So is it possible that Mayweather will come back? I say yes, but his expectations and aspirations are just too unreasonable.”

    If he can get it then more power to him. Many people want to see him fight Pac or Shane so its possible someone smokes enough crack and agrees to it.

    If Hatton beats Pac this fight makes no sense.

    Why are you guys surprised or complaining? Back in the day, SSM said he wanted a guaranteed 10 mil to fight PBF.
