Forget what you may have heard about Floyd Mayweather and a $65 million offer from Singapore, or Manny Pacquiao and a $65 million offer from Mexico. Sources have informed FightHype.com that on Friday of last week, Top Rank Promotions received a Letter of Intent from an interested party in the United States with an offer of $75 million available to both sides. On top of that, both fighters have been guaranteed $25 million the minute they sign the contract. "We have a $25 million cashier's check ready for them as soon as they sign the contract. We're going to give each fighter $25 million in advance just to sign," stated one source, who contacted FightHype.com over the weekend with the news.

I find the amounts totally obscene tbh. They dont deserve that kind of money..noone does.
I was just about to post this. I personally find this amount of money for one fight an obscene amount. $75million for a 48minute fight and say 2 months training is disgusting and this money could be used for better uses. I mean it's great that these billionaires are interested in putting up fights, but this amount of money is ridiculous!
Though I can't blame Manny or Floyd or anyone for that matter taking this kind of money, you'd be stupid not to!
$75 million for a fight that is going to be completely 1-sided (whoever wins) and even has a possibility of being boring (whoever wins)
Wow... an 0 is not worth $75 mil... Period
word...who's putting up the money...Google?

If this dosent make the Pac vs May fight I dont know what will.
Too bad it's not for a Pac -Mayweather fight though. They want him to fight Alvarez in Alvarez's hometown....Arum will turn it down..."Alvarez is too big"- Bob Arum
An African American owned Fight Hype and Ben Thompson a Mayweather cvck gobbler, yeah this story is legit! The "only" media outlet to cover FMJ.
However, news about Pacquiao getting ridiculous amount of offers are covered and reported from different media outlets, not legit!
P.S.
How do you bring a flomo into starvation?
Hide their cheque from welfare inside their work shoes!
:lol1::lol1:
anyone who believes floyd is in hiding and 'vacationing' because of ost is an idiot, plain and simple. Sh*t was never an issue in the past for him but now he believes in it so whole heartedly that he's willing to pass up $65 mil... After he was supposedly ready to accept $25 mil with a 14 day cut off? C'mon son :lol1:
even in a recent interview floyd sr said all it would take to make the fight was manny accepting testing (last fall he claimed the ONLY reason it didn't happen was taxes), then when he was informed pacquiao is on film and print several times that he agreed to everything with no cut offs... He said floyd shouldn't fight him because he must be on something undetectable.
The entire mayweather clan is shook of manny, sr is the only one keeping it real. This fantasy fight's death was sealed the night of the cotto fight.
:lol1:
This dude above is something else.
you're not supposed to understand me, i'm mysterious like the wind :cool2:
also, arum was vindicated when he said a group from south africa conducted negotiations for the fight that the public didn't know about and said group offered 50 mil per fighter. Michael lodge and zindzi mandela were the spearheads of the group and the story was true.
Arum didn't name anyone specifically with the singapore deal, but he did mention it was a group that handles business for the casinos there if i'm not mistaken. So it wouldn't be hard to investigate the claim plus it would be a ridiculous thing to lie about considering how easy it would be to verify.
This on the other hand, is just another ben thopson 'source' fabrication. You'll nnotice that this is the only place where you'll find this story. Like i said before, why would people with 150 mil laying around to throw away on boxiing ring up some random dude to tell him about their business dealings and no one else? Use your head.
And the winky wright thread was just me doing my best flomo impression.
Oooooooooooooh now I know who he is talking about. It's all clear now. He was right about it being legitimate people. It was a group......that handles business for the casinos, yeah, you know group is he talking about?.
Yeah, well, I don't believe Arum or BT...But I see you are a full fledged believer of Bob Arum and his underground legitimate Singapore casino people. You either very gullible, or just a desperate fan of a boxer. I personally think you are a mix of the 2.

That has never stopped Mr yesterday I was lying, but today I'm telling truth before.
And, I'm glad it was just as impression. Because, in reality if anybody avoided someone in that deal. It was Winky who avoided Floyd. Just like Winky turned down a Taylor rematch, a Margarito fight and Oscar De la Hoya. Who the hell turns down Oscar? F'ing Winky Wright that's who smh.
So you turn around and believe Arum, about people from Singapore, offering Floyd $65mill to fight Pacquiao, and Floyd turned it down.
When just a day ago, you posted a link to "Mayweather ducking Winky" and you acknowledged in that same thread that "Bob Arum changed his stance last minute".
I really don't understand you.

Next, we will hear Bob Arum say "legitimate Aliens from Mars" offered Floyd 85 million Martian dollars.
Pac fans will believe this and go crazy.
Then BT says a reliable source from planet Neptune has offered Pacquiao $95Million Neptunian Dollars.
Pac fans wil scream BS.
I hope you aren't trying to bait me into a ridiculous flomo/pactard trap.
Regardless, I rather believe the top brass of a major promotional company than an article with no source being reported on only 1 website.
That's saying a lot seeing as Arum's a bytch ass liar, but occasionally says nuggets of truth.
In other words you believe "people from Singapore" did offer Floyd $65Mill?
how many times does ben thompson have to make up stories with unnamed sources before people catch on? This is the same guy whose 'source' told him that pac-floyd was signed, sealed, delievered and was on the verge of being announced. He has a bunch of other articles over there that were clearly made up b.s. This one can be added to the list.
He's just a floyd apologist who fabricates articles to try to make him look better, probably brewed this up after seeing his boy take a beating on msg boards like this one for turning down actual offers.
Someone should contact him and get a copy of those offer sheets from the unnamed sources and unknown money men. Like anyone with 150 mil to throw away would call ben thompson about it :lol1:

I hope you said the same with the "legitimate people from Singapore".
