    "It doesn't have to be about the millions. What I was getting up front, no fighter has ever got in the history of boxing. What I could have got up front with this fight could have been 100 million dollars total. But guess what, I'd rather do business and stick with the people who were there for me in my rough times like Al Haymon."
    It's nonsense and Mayweather knows it. What I don't doubt is that Don King promised 100 million to him. However, it likely came with 10 or 20 miserable stipulations that would have been completely unrealistic. I don't doubt he was offered the money, however to anyone with decent sense it would have been clear that they were bound to get fleeced. Mayweather realized this yet still turned around and told folks about it so he could act like he's worth more than 100 million. King tried to play Mayweather but PBF wasn't having it.

      they play hard against them.

      i don't think they respect the nuggets.



      orlando is what scares me. howard is a beast and the magic shoot 3's like crazy. defending the 3 is one of the laker's big weaknesses.
      LOL. The thing about Howard inside that is scary is that when he attacks the rim it seems so effortless. Even in the dunk contest I don't want to give high scores because he looks like he is not even trying even though he does some of the most impressive stuff. I think the Lake show beats Orlando though. Howard will have a good series cause Gasol isn't tough enough to defend him imo. But they would lose in 6 I think. The cavs Lakers is fun to watch and I wouldnt make a prediction on that one.
