    FM: I'm trying to tell you. He needs to take a good look at what's going on. People don't have money right now man. I don't give a damn how many of those big bodyguards he keep around him. All of these dudes have guns now and one thing about it, if they shoot one of them bodyguards, the only way they gonna shoot the other ones is in the back because they'll be running. They not gonna turn to see if he's hit or not. They not going to wait and see the next shot. They not even trying to hear the next shot. They are getting the hell out of there and fast.

    Floyd is still pissed that Hatton made more money than him when they fought

    That is way too much money. I also think Oscar would have had a better chance at beating him the 2nd time around.

    Hatton made about 40 million when he fought Floyd and ODLH made 43 million in "the world awaits"

    Floyd didn't make near those amounts...

    $50 million is the price tag that Floyd came up with for the first (recorded) loss of his career.

    Hatton didn't even come close to 40 million. Hatton's base was $6 million for that fight, and he ended up getting a percentage of the PPV. Mayweather made more money than Hatton in that fight.

    In the Oscar vs Floyd Match, after the PPV & Gate, Oscar made about $58 Million, and Floyd actually brought in around $35 million. Floyd should have been very happy to get that, as it was more than triple anything else that he has ever made, and Oscar is by far the one putting the asses in the seats. For Floyd to think that he should make more than Oscar in the rematch is just absurd. Oscar can make crazy money fighting anyone that he wants to. Let alone, the fact that Oscar put on that great promotion, the 24/7 show, ect... Floyd should be calling and thanking Oscar every day.

    Just like when Winky Wright calls Oscar out for over a year... Oscar calls his bluff and offers Winky the biggest payday of his career.... and Winky turned it down. Yet... people still pretended like Oscar was ducking Winky.

    Fear had nothing to do with it.

    Like Bernard (with Calzaghe in 2002), Floyd is skipping the fight due to GREED.
