Roach Wants Pacquiao vs Mayweather-Marquez Winner

[gopi11]

I just wish that Roach didnt feel the need to issue a fuggin press release everytime he has a thought. Funny, I thought Pac had a promoter and a manager that made the opponent decisions.........lol

BREAKING NEWS!!! ROACH TAKES A DUMP!!!
(remember where you heard it first!)

Terry, since you're in the boxing business, you should know that Pacman's promoter, Bob Arum consults with Freddie first, before deciding who should he bless to fight Pacman. It's well documented, on print and in videos. And Freddie Roach is the most sought after person in the boxing business (this is no pun to you or any other boxing personalities), aside from the boxers themselves. Boxing scribes are usually seen lining up at the Wild Card gym trying to get an interview with Freddie. Roach doesn't need to call press conferences, the press conferences comes to him...

Dont rule it out completely. History says alot crazier **** has happened in the past. Just check out the negotiations for the Leonard/Hagler fight.

Let's just say, Al Haymon's sleight of hand worked wonders against Bob Arum in the negotiating table and Bob agreed to a 55/45 split in favor of Floyd, are you saying Pacquiao, who always have the last say about anything, will also agree to take 45% against Floyd? Because the guy I quoted said the split should be 55/45 in favor of Floyd and you said not to rule it out completely...

IAN HES IN SERIOUS TROUBLE!!!



lol

It's still painful watching that. No wonder Hatton can't watch it!!

I pray the moneypot split doesn't spoil Floyd v Pac. We'll all be heartbroken if so

No....i quoted your statement saying Floyd aint getting half the loot in a million years. Maybe not.....but I wouldnt rule out a 50/50 split completely at this point. Since crazier **** has happened when it comes to fight negotiations.

Who knows?? Maybe Pacquiao would take 45 or maybe even 40% for some extra stipulations like a smaller ring so floyd cant run...and have floyd wear cleto reyes gloves or something. I would if i were Pacquiao and that were offered to me.

Floyd-Oscar-2.5 Mill
Manny-Oscar-1.5 Mill
Floyd-Hatton-915 (2.4 if you add British numbers)
Manny-Hatton-825k(1.9 if you add British numbers)

I GURANTEE Floyd comes to the table with those stats. Don't be suprised if it ends up 55-45.

This is obviously the last fight Manny needs in his career. Be it Marquez or Floyd, it will decide who is the greatest fighter of this era. Also bring in the most loot for Manny and he can complete his legacy. Floyd being former P4P #1, or Marquez who has been his greatest challenger ever. To finally put the naysayers away by beating Marquez soundly, or wiping out Floyd, his legacy will be cemented in stone. Then Pacquiao should retire in peace.

I seriously doubt the man retires if he loses against either guy. It just will not sit well with him to go out a loser.

I don't see Floyd fighting Pac for anything less then a 50/50 split, no less a 65/35 split in Pacs favor.

Floyd-Oscar-2.5 Mill (robust economy)

Manny-Oscar-1.5 Mill (everybody's in the dumps)

Floyd-Hatton-915, 2.4 if you add British numbers (the hype of 2 unbeaten boxers fighting each other, and the economy is doing well)

Manny-Hatton-825k(1.9 if you add British numbers) (The PPV buys are not done yet, and the economy, or do I need to say it again?)

I GURANTEE Floyd comes to the table with those stats. Don't be suprised if it ends up 55-45.

Fixed it for you buddy, it's now well detailed...

This kinda **** pisses me off. When all of this talk is going on why don't they let the fighters make a deal to say that the winner takes 60% of the purse. They'll definitely both agree. Problem solved..
