Yes Manny should've taken the flat fee of 40millio and 0% of the PPV money :usa2:
"He can have the belt doe"
Seriously though bro, lets say Manny said **** it and took that 40 mil..no PPV. He would at least be 40 mill less in the hole. No?
40 Mil sounds real good right now.
Honestly, trying to turn 40 into 100mil was flat out greedy. Especially coming from poverty. It was a gamble he lost and he is paying for it. There's really no other way to look at it.
And I can understand the Pac fanbase being so salty too.. having to beg the same guy you sued for a defamation is a ****ty deal no matter how you slice it. Mayweather is the quickest way out of the hole, no doubt. I would be upset too. But if Manny didnt squander his money he wouldnt be in this situation having to beg his worst enemy for a fight. Thats just the way I see it.
dude floyd wanted no cutoffs from the jump=fact...the mediator who was brought in came up with 14 days..floyd agreed...manny walked away=fact...soon after that floyd said the 14 days were off of the table=fact..so manny uses vada who has been around 2 years..wow..he used it finally after 4 years..floyd been doing random testing for 5 years now and now he is the one scared of drug testing???lol you guys are funny
Game, set, match, point
You know whats funny?
Roach's quote after Manny got laid out.
"We should've asked for testing"
But when Floyd asked for testing, he was apparently asking for the moon.
And years later we still dont know why Manny is scared of blood tests.
Drawing blood makes him weak remember? Since Pacquiao is smaller than Floyd, drawing blood would give Floyd the advantage going into the fight. Those were Pacquiao's exact words.
They picked the only testing agency that had experience with that type of testing.Also the most reputable company stateside. The original 14 day cut off was more than reasonable and Im sure Manny in hindsight would probably admit that.

Oh really? is that what you think? So Floyd makes a demand...(after accusing the man) and hes supposed to listen to him? That was all huh?
Dont mention the lab whom was doing the testing? Who was picking that? Or the time frames....who was dictating that? The counter offer was in no way that insane from Pacs side. 10 day apart in nego...And even taking the test right after the fight. How can you go wrong with that?
But you say..."That is all". LMFAO.....Floydidiots.
I havent seen any other fighter be scared of blood tests.
Probably because they were clean.

im lost..so floyd calls him and tries to fight him...yet he is scared???? ya'll are desperate hereIt's simple really. The telephone offer of a flat 40million dollars to Pacquiao was just Mayweather talking BS. He had no intention of giving Pacquiao 40million bucks or 40 bucks or 40cents. Where was the legal contract to go with Mayweather's generous offer? How was it supposed to work? Mayweather just wires Pacquiao $40 million dollars and Pacquiao keeps it all? He doesn't have to pay taxes on it or give Arum his legal share? If Pacquiao had said OK Floyd I'll fight you just send me that 40million bucks not a damn thing would have come of it. Floyd is a proven liar and would be under no legal obligation to keep his word to Pacquiao over the phone. In the history of boxing has any major fight ever been settled by the two boxers in a quick phone call? Hell no. If Floyd's 40million dollar offer was for real he would have sent the offer in the form of a legal contract to be approved by all parties involved on both sides. So please don't say Floyd's BS phone call to Pacquiao was proof Mayweather wanted to fight Pacquiao. He just wanted to make it look like he wanted to fight Pacquiao. He does not want the fight and it will never happen.
Walking away from ridiculous demands! Demands only a fuking brain dead moron would agree too.
The original demand was for a blood test. That was all.
Then manny looked like crap against Marquez in their third fight so his stock naturally dropped. That's when floyd offered him the flatfee.
Let's not forget even with bob involved manny wouldn't have earned over 40 million for a floyd fight. rob arum would keep the cash for himself.
manny never makes that kind of money and floyd was going to be the promoter. he definitely deserved the larger slice of the pie.
It does not matter what Pacquiao does. Floyd will never fight him. He seems obsessed with trashing Pacquiao and insulting Pacquiao sometimes three or four times in the same day. He trashes him through the media, on twitter and through his favorite kiss ass yes man Ben whats his name. He was thrilled than Pacquiao was KOed by Marquez and thrilled that Pacquiao is having tax problems. The hate he has for Pacquiao is almost unbelievable. The so called 40 million dollar phone call offer to fight was as phony as a three dollar bill. He hates Pacquiao ten times more than he hates Arum. The last thing in the world Mayweather is ever going to do is fight Manny and put even one dollar in Manny's pocket.
He made $41.5 million guaranteed and gut a cut of PPV money.
Manny isn't leaving Arum and yet people like you will continue to put all the blame on Mayweather.
So how much of a cut did he receive from the PPV? I'm sure Canelo Licas and Danny got a nice cut or no?
Mannys contract once against expires in 2015. I read his lawyer is advising Manny to leave Arum for at least one fight. Time will tell.
That's why Manny said to Floyd let's fight in 2015.
Where has this been posted? I remember reading he made 35 million.
Mannys contract is up in 2015. He will be wise to find a new promotor. I hope he does to with GBP.

What exacly are billypinos ? :ANYWORD:
I think he's poking fun at the accent some Phillipinos have. My friends parents have an accent like that and they are straight up Phillipino
Pacquiao's signed with TR for all this year.
That's why Manny said to Floyd let's fight in 2015.
Quit writing in big blocks. Mayweather made well over $50 million for the Canelo fight and could have been as high as $90 million.

Arum owns Manny. He will never leave TR. Arum will most likely make Manny sign an extension before his contract ends or he will starve him out. You make him sign or he can't fight. And Manny can't afford to not fight. It's a skandalous yet brilliant plan by Arum. It's happened to other fighters in the past.
