Answer the previous question. Why would you reference Floyd about the hypocrisy from Pac fans about making business moves and it not being about the fall out of Pac/PBF not getting made and try to blame us at being obsessive about it? And I already gave you an example of Floyd's poor business choice. Floyd's business move is $40million or nothing. And in case you still dont know which is the wiser choice Ill give you a hint...it isnt nothing.
patsch You can try to play "coy", but it won't work with me. If you don't like my post too bad. You blame me for bringing Floyd Mayweather Jr. into the debate, but your title says it all "Re: Pac PFP #1 but might be #1 Cherrypicker too!". There's only one person that's been associated as the #1 Cherrypicker and that's Floyd. And Pacquiao is still far away from exceeding him... a long way off. From your point of view he's reached that threshold and you'd be wrong. Just in case you didn't know. :hi:
50% of 2 million PPVs is very close to 70% of 1.4 million PPVs just because you assume floyd can't make any other fight doesn't make it true if you argue the business angle with pac...then do the same for floyd...floyd has not had a problem selling fights...and has shown that over and over again...in business terms, a 50/50 fight with pac, ot a 70/30 fight with someone else...well floyd makes the same $, and doesn't need to deal with pac/arum's b/s
Already answered in a previous post, am I moving too fast for you? Sad fact is, I could have used any other fighter as a reference and you'd still be blaming Floyd for Pac cherrypicking Mosley...........................It's what you do!:deal
please please explain why floyd vs. jmm has anything to do with pac vs. jmm....please, im dieing to hear this
I know why PACFANS don't want a PART 3. MAYWEATHER did not struggle one bit, and put on a clinic. Yeah Marquez moved up but Mayweather did not impose his Weight in Marquez... IF PAC FACES Marquez at 144... and struggles one bit, because you know styles MAKES fights...145 JMM vs 148 PAC..... *****S are gonna POUNCE on *******S and just laugh..and say if he stuggles with JMM i wonder what will happen with a younger and faster more defensive version OF JMM. We all have to remember PAC has not faced a counter puncher like JMM since JMM... So IF pac STUGGLES one bit, which he will MAYWEATHER fans are gonna humiliate PACfaNS and its not what they want. SEE IF THEY GO THE MOSELy ROUTE>>. BIG Chance PAC puts on a clinic and PACFANS want to see "WE BEAT MOSEly BETTER THEN MAYWEATHER DID, WE WILL OWN MAYWEATHER" lol
You're math is very subjective and only has merit if Floyd is fighting more than once a year which he isnt. The Pacquiao fight makes the most money more than any other fighter for Floyd. To fight another opponent for less money shows that he fears the risk against the fighter that makes the most money for him. Now you are complaining that Pac should take a fight that makes him less $$$ than the next most profitable fight available to him which is Mosley. Pac's business move is fighting the guy that makes the most money. Floyd's business move risk/reward ratio. These are 2 different business approaches to the sport of boxing from the 2 superstars. It isnt comparable one bit.
If Pac ends up choosing Mosley, BOTH Pac and Floyd are off my P4P list. No joke. Floyd is too inactive to consider him relevant in a ranking system. And Pac is choosing money over legacy. There is no merit in making millions of dollars. It's what you do inside the ring that counts. His last good fight was against Cotto who was a top P4P fighter back then. Now what has Pac done for us lately? That's the question. I don't expect the LA Lakers to call themselves the greatest team if, say, they beat an 8th seed team. Same rule applies to boxers. Fighters like Martinez, Froch, Marquez, Bradley, Alexander, Khan, Maidana, Pascal, etc. deserve more recognition because they actually care about the spirit of true competition and keep challenging themselves in order to give the fans great fights. What's happening between two of the most popular fighters in Boxing right now is just downright pathetic to say the least. It's not even arguable.
No you didn't, you just accused me of bringing it up and after I exposed you of the one bringing it up in the first place you tip-toed around the subject for 3 pages. could of should of but didnt it is what it is You referenced Floyd first and are accusing us about being obsessive about it.
so this guys don't care about money and fight whoever was best in front of them? every fighter fights for money first and legacy will come later since those big money fights are the biggest stars who happened to be the best, not all the time, but most of the time. why is martinez after pac and cotto if he wants a real challenge, is it for the money?
the math is not subjective at all...and has no bearing on how many times floyd fights...this is about one fight pac/floyd 50/50 of 2 million (and i am not sure if pac/floyd would do 2 million) is almost identical to 70% of 1.4 million (which floyd did just do with mosley)...so how is that less $? floyd has been averaging more $ per fight than pac, basically every fight...yet you claim pac is chasing $ and floyd is facing safe fights that pay ok floyd was too scared to fight mosley, yet takes the fight and doubles the pac/clottey fight (talk about risk-reward....clottey?) and what happened to the criticism that floyd was only fighting for $ while pac was a warrior, fighting for legacy? did that vanish? is he just an ATM now?
