Pacquiao Camp: "We will demand $10 million for every pound above 147 lbs"

This is a direct result of Floyd's doing. PBF already thinks he's the greatest ever so he doesn't have to do things that other boxers routinely do, which is to make weight. OK, so he only did it once against JMM. But doing that lead to this demand. Normally, I'd say an athlete of Floyd's caliber wouldn't dare pull the same bitch move twice, but we all know the truth: Floyd DOES NOT CARE what the media or fans think. All Floyd cares about is WINNING AND MONEY. He will come up with whatever convoluted reason to justify his dishonorable actions to Brian Kenny. At first, I thought $10 million was too high. But I'm guessing Team Pacquiao started with this high number so there's room to negotiate to a number that's more reasonable that will still keep Mayweather honest. If the agreed sum is too low, Money will have the option of ignoring the agreed weight limit. (I'm assuming the fight would go on if he goes over because it's impossible Team Mayweather would agree to a fine and no fight. If Team Pac is demanding a fine and then no fight, I suppose it would be for Mayweather wasting their time and effort.) For those saying Pac is scared of Floyd coming in overweight, to me it's more about Floyd not having to worry about cutting weight. That's the real advantage.

if floyd won't go over 147 lbs, then what's the problem?

wtf is up with team pacman??this demand is dumb...if anyone weights over 147(which is the actual ww limit)there is no fukking fight....they must think this is a catchweight fight or something no smart guy. there can still be a fight, it just wont be for the title. why are PBF fans so scared? lol

Shouldnt be a problem unless Mayweather intends to come in overweight.

both fighters will make 147 with ease..this is only a hypothetical issue only to hype up the fight :D

This is why I love buildups to megafights.. all the petty stuff that comes out :popcorn:

pac team is very smart they know that floyd is a cheater in weight and could weight up to 165-170 lbs in fight night if they allow floyd to overweight during the weigh in.

and those saying mayweather has cheated before gtfo with that garbage and go watch some margarito fights. haha, how is that the same. Theyre charging for every pound over. Have you seen the JMM-floyd weigh in and know how much floyd paid? Theyre not charging $10 million for illegal wraps. I think Floyd would gladly pay that if he could.

and those saying mayweather has cheated before gtfo with that garbage and go watch some margarito fights.

this is no problem. 1 million from a 40million purse? get the **** out of here. Floyd cheated before, and he'd get again if he had the chance. Maywather camp wants blood days before the fight. That is a certified bitch move. That's not true.

Man, I can't find any problem with the $10M penalty per excess of 1lb above 147lbs. Floyd can always make it at 147lbs, if he wants to, so how can there be a penalty for him? UNLESS, he is planning to go over the weight limit, then he should be angry with that kind of demand in the contract. Pacquiao is willing to take an Olympic type of drug testing. It's only Roach who is crying about having to test within 6 weeks before the fight. But that's Roach, eventually he would give in to Pacquiao's decision.

Lol Either way pac is gettin Ko'd !!!!!! So it dont fu**in Matter

this is no problem. 1 million from a 40million purse? get the **** out of here. Floyd cheated before, and he'd get again if he had the chance. Maywather camp wants blood days before the fight. That is a certified bitch move.

Its the pac camp coming up with excuses already.

just like the penalties they wanted for the cotto fight, never mind the fact that they already made him put his 147 belt on the line at a 145 catchweight limit, but if he came in over, they wanted like $1 million for every pound over. Now it's $10 million for every pound over with Mayweather at 147. Nevermind the fact that floyd has never come in over the 147 limit. So again, what's the problem? Why these idiotic demands? (and to be fair, I think the olympic testing demands are stupid too) It's not idiotic, it makes perfect sense. If they went for just 1 million a pound, what's that from a 40 million dollar payday? This way it will cost him heavy, think about it, even if he goes over 2 lbs, that still leaves Mayweather with 20 mil, that's not bad, eh? They just want to make sure Mayweather doesn't cheat, AGAIN.

wtf is up with team pacman??this demand is dumb...if anyone weights over 147(which is the actual ww limit)there is no fukking fight....they must think this is a catchweight fight or something no dummy. floyd or pac can come in 20 lbs. over and this fight will still go on. there's about $80 mil. dollars reason for both sides. floyd would not pull out and neither would pac if the other guy comes over. that's why just have penalties for going over. $10 mil. is way too much. $1 mil. per lb. is acceptable.

Because Pacman will still fight and beat him. Pacman is just making sure Mayweather doesn't cheat with the contracted weight without paying heavily.

1Mill over 147 is good enough. They're trying to make Mayweather focus more on the weight then anything.

rofl, nobody's scared of shit, i love how the pac ******s keep this 'scared' shit going. scared is making your 147 champ opponent put his belt on the line at a 145 catchweight. that's scared.

just like the penalties they wanted for the cotto fight, never mind the fact that they already made him put his 147 belt on the line at a 145 catchweight limit, but if he came in over, they wanted like $1 million for every pound over. Now it's $10 million for every pound over with Mayweather at 147. Nevermind the fact that floyd has never come in over the 147 limit. So again, what's the problem? Why these idiotic demands? (and to be fair, I think the olympic testing demands are stupid too) which demands?
