Freddie Roach: "We Wanna Fight Mayweather At 147 For The Title" [Short Version]

Looks like the 60/40 negotiations begin..

roach says they want 60-40 of course, but the way to get the fight done is 50-50. Yeah 60/40 will be the entry point in the negotiations but Roach knows it'll probably end up being 50/50.

You have to realize that Roach never feared Floyd's size anyways so there was never going to be a catchweight. Roach even said this before the Cotto fight when he was choosing between Shane & Cotto. He said he would ask them to come way down because there super big strong guys but he wouldnt really care to make Floyd come down because he doesnt think Floyd is a super big strong guy. Its the same thing Hatton's team and JMM team said. None of these people look at Floyd like they do the other WW's so thats why they move up That's interesting to note. What other option does he have?He knows Floyd wont take that rubbish of catchweights.He's also talking about a 50-50 situation which means he knows he cant get anymore.Anyone who knows negotiations knows you start with the highest bid possible.So team pacquiao knows they are getting the smaller percentage here,they will end up on a 60-40 @ the best and they are prepared for that.When they finally sign their 60-40 they will claim they don't fight for money but they are doing it for boxing fans. That may very well be true. The only other option is fighting the winner of Mosley-Berto. That`s cause Floyd had bigger money options.Margarito was a nobody.Pac on the other hand a chance to fight Mosley but chose a past his prime Cotto. That's interesting to note.

Floyd's turn. He's been called out like 3 times. Still no reply from his camp? Floyd is whimpering under the bed they don't know how to get him out thus they don't know what to reply. He's actually sucking his thumb now in fetal position as elle's dick is nowhere to be seen.

The fight is gonna look like this http://www.gifbin.com/bin/1232227501_m_6676.gif

Hahaha...towards the end of that audio. 50/50, 147...what more can be done...make the fight Floyd. Roach is very confident. He also said that Floyd had slowed a bit and Castillo gave him trouble back when Floyd was in his prime. Roach doesn't give certain things, like a healthy weight, without taking more (like pay and weight loss) if he doesn't think he/Pac stands a solid shot at winning against what is there. yeah, Roach sounds confident. this is why floyd, i fear, will chicken out again :(

Ladies and Gentlemen, Floyd Mayweather Jr. has just retired again. lmao...........:fing02::dance::dance::dance:

Roach did say at one point that Mayweather would be an easy fight but the Pacquiao entourage fell a little silent after the Mayweather vs Marquez fight. I think they needed to see how well Pacquiao performed against Cotto before deciding on how/if to approach Mayweather. Shit, everybody feel silent when everyone found out FLOYD CAN'T EVEN KO A BLOATED FEATHERWEIGHT DESPITE HIM CHEATING ON THE WEIGHT. That's the plain simple truth.

This is a very clear indication that the fight would happen... But I doubt... I think Floyd id thinking of reason right now to avoid Pac... purse is the main factor..

You have to realize that Roach never feared Floyd's size anyways so there was never going to be a catchweight. Roach even said this before the Cotto fight when he was choosing between Shane & Cotto. He said he would ask them to come way down because there super big strong guys but he wouldnt really care to make Floyd come down because he doesnt think Floyd is a super big strong guy. Its the same thing Hatton's team and JMM team said. None of these people look at Floyd like they do the other WW's so thats why they move up Roach did say at one point that Mayweather would be an easy fight but the Pacquiao entourage fell a little silent after the Mayweather vs Marquez fight.

there's still the money to discuss, what with Floyd saying Pac doesn't deserve half of it. And Floyd would weigh anywhere in the 160-220 lb range come fight time anyway, Pac's done lol
