Mayweather Jr: "Pacquiao Fight Won't Happen At 50-50"

[-MAKAVELLI-]

this fight aint happening...we'll get PBF-Hatton 2 at Wembley instead

[Addition]

No. Fck that, I want to see him lose, he has to lose to fall off that high horse he's riding on, flat on his face. and I don't see what's wrong with him fighting JMM. lol, he came out of retirement and he got a pack of lions looking at him like a gazelle. So being as it may **** looks crazy, and he has to defend himself with the ego. The ego is now interfering with him doing what he needs to do. What he has to do.

Manny aint the guy to do that unfortnately.

Damn these egotisical boxers. This is why UFC is becomeing bigger than Boxing.

Oh well, JMM-Pac 3(if it happened) would be much better anyways.

That doesn't = to being entitled to a large % of the purse....that fight WAS the biggest SELLING fight in history, but did the fight ITSELF deliver? As Whitney Houston so eloquintley put it..."HELL TO THA NAW".

Being a part of a "sale" and actually delivering the goods are two totally different things....50/50 is more than fair. Especially considering he just came out of retirement, and postponed the fight due to "injury".

I use to be one of Floyd's biggest fans, but then money and fame took over....

Everybody says they used to be a fan of his, I seriously doubt that, who are you a fan of then? I bet that fighter has negotiated the same way.

Thats the thing, Im not being a selfish fan, of course I want to see the fight, but look at it from Floyd's perspective, which nobody does, put yourself in his place, how would you feel if you sold the most ever and dont get bigger than 50/50.

Thats whats wrong with selfish fans, look, many talked about how they wished fighters fought like Gatti, he's dead now, and you would hardly know it really. There should be more talked about him, alot more, alot more, a heck of alot more, which is why I say fighters should fight for themselves and not fans, when youre gone they dont give you what you deserve, they are only living for the moment.

Good point

His view is different from ours

[Gutz]

is that you in your avy?

[WhoreUs]

splits and weights are becoming the downfall of boxing.

wrong.

splits and orgs are.



name one fight that doesn't get made solely because of the inability to agree on the weight.

i can't think of any.

Look man as a Floyd fan, Floyd did not sell the most ever by himself..... ODLH is the HIGHEST selling fighter ever.... It was a gimme that it would sell that much....

Am I saying that Floyd didnt play a part??? No, of course he did.....

But look, money is money and legacy is legacy.... Every kid that grows up wishes to be the greatest of all time, EVERY KID.....

Okay make you money, you deserve it... But dont go around, saying you want to be the best when you arent even making the attempt to do it....

If you are not fighting for legacy and only money, leave... Fans, and the court of public opinion dont want that.....

We have fighters like Paul that are willing to go up and down in the name of legacy.... Fighters like Pac, Cotto, and others that do it for greatness.... NOT FOR MONEY....

[WhoreUs]

Mayweather and Pac are idiots

Its a shame that arguably the two best fighters in the sport care so much about money

how does pac get equal blame?

floyd has his own fight.

he ain't available anyway.

if floyd didn't sign a fight before pac-hatton then maybe you could say that.

I hear you, but wasn't like they said take less, they offered Floyd a
50/50 split. Even though Floyd was the man 2 years ago, he still left
and Pac filled that void and made some exciting fights in Floyd's absence. floyd is still in his prime undefeated but Manny built up a good following
and name for himself so Floyd should take that into consideration.
He went away, Manny didn't, so Floyd has to make people remember
why he is the best and take that 50 and show the fans what it do.

50% of a Manny Pacquiao/Floyd Mayweather Jr fight + revenues is
still a lot of cash. That's like me and my boy get a job together and
he was getting promotions and favor in the boss's eyes and suddenly
he leaves for whatever reason and I stay and get up in the company.
Do you think it's OK for your boy to come back and be in the same
position he was in before he left, when I and or you was busting your
ass at the job? I would be like ***K this dude. I'm a big Floyd fan
but he should start to checking his ego at the door and just get in
the ring and prove why he was the P4P #1 before he left.
