Roach: "Floyd Needs Pacquiao, We Don't Need Him"

[fabzmm]

correction it was 10 million for baldy

hmm..I always been telling floyd haters it was 8 million and the lineal ww championship. Link for 10 million?

Roach has said since Hatton that Mayweather, Cotto, and Mosely were the options. Pac hasn't ducked anyone. He'll fight two of the three before retirement.

then why didn't manny fight shane? he had the oppertunity and shane was willing to give pacquiao everything he wanted from the weight to the bigger purse yet they chose not to fight shane, manny will never fight shane mosley lets be serious

I'M SO GLAD I DECIDED TO CHECK THE SITE TODAY LMAO and the bull **** begins i need for the official #'s to come out so we can see what the deal is. I knew the fight would do 700000+ but if it did a million+ some pac fans are gonna be real mad you see the hatin already with just rumored numbers. aaaaaahhhhh i love it. And Roach has gotten a little too mouthy lately but i like it somewhat even though most of what he said is obvious bull ****. I mean i thought it was reasonable( but wrong IMO) to say manny deserved 1/2 but to say floyd's crazy to think he's getting equal is just hilarious. Floyd is the biggest star in boxing and is undefeated virtuoso fighter which makes him the bigger draw let alone if you compare #'s there's not even a comparison.

if the fight were to happen it should be atleast 60/40 in favor of pacman. mayweather can not sell tickets everyone knows that. if you not pac could fight mosley and make twice as much then if mayweather was to fight mosley.

you are seriously ******ed, in their fights with oscar,ricky and marquez floyd sold more than manny did against all 3

Shane and Floyd will bust that ass on manny though

[djjuan]

Roach should stick to training...

Peoples Freddie Roach is the trainer not the promoter of Pacmans fight..
Why is he talking about money percentages...

After he looses to Cotto, I want to see what PacMan is going to
want for his next fight...

Cotto will bring PacMan fever back to reality...

Cotto vs Margarito in 2010...

If Manny Pacquiao beats Miguel Cotto on November 14, the stage will be set for what may be the toughest fight negotiations in the current era of the sport. Both Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao believe they deserve the much bigger piece of the money. Neither guy is willing to budge from their position and neither guy wants to do an 50-50 even split. [details]

WRONG, Freddie.
Floyd showed he is the bigger draw and an elite fighter.
They should fight each other, simple as that.

WRONG, Freddie.

by beating up on a Super Feather Weight. hahahahahahahaha.
He just showed he was the bigger *******! I would have said Man but a real man wouldnt have pulled that sorry ****.
There is plenty other big WW's for him to fight. or he can go back to WWE . simple as that!

It is fun reading, but I think Roach is making it difficult for Arum and company to negotiate if Manny gets past Cotto. Roach is way involved in the business side which it looks like Manny likes his input there also.
