Pacquiao-Mayweather: Roach Says “50-50 Will Get it Done”

[big_james10]

Somebody on an earlier post made mention of the FACT that when Jr fought DLH the economy was ok, same with Jr vs Hatton, but when Pacmang fought those guys and especially Cotto the economy is terrible yet while both Pac vs Cotto and Jr. vs JMM were held close to the same time , PAC WON OUT !!!!!!!!

So if you are going by numbers you have to be fair with the economy and the times or are you one of those like many here are that they would take like Jack Dempseys fights and compare purses with someone's today to get an advantage, LOL shorly not, that was an extreme example.

The best assessment is to compare the last two fights. Pac vs Cotto their buys vs Jr vs JMM and their buys.

WE HAVE A WINNER FOLKS, PACMANG !!!!!!!!!

Pacmang should get the biggest part of the prize, I hope he settles at least for 50 50 to get the fight so we can see Roger the QUITTER Mayweather take a dump in his pants when he see's how wrong he has been about Pacmang cause Jr, won't come out for the 11th round sitting on his stool with his head hangin down. It will bring back memorys of when ROGER QUIT ON his stool. I did tell yall bout that shorly I did ???? LOL

LISTEN: ATTENTION :::

Pac's been gametested in grueling fights , proven himself.

May Jr. Has NOT been gametested but Pacamang will test that ass and I say based on his actions , mindset , his mouth, the only place he is lacking is in his HEART ! He's got all the skills, I DON"T THINK HE HAS THE BALLS TO BACK IT UP !!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to find out !!

I relish this fight, gonna be gooooooooooooooood !!!!

The economy was fine when Pac fought Marquez, but there were only 450,000 buys. You can't compare Floyd/Marquez with Pac/Cotto because Cotto was a star and a PPV draw himself. If Pac was a big as you think, the fight would have drawn the 1.6 million that Arum and Roach expected.

Mr Roach, is this at 147, the WW limit????

50/50 with a bonus sounds good. As long as its at 147 it will be made VERY easy. Both want to fight.

and of course Mayweather wants this fight. He ALWAYS wants to fight the smaller guys right???????????????

50/50 with a bonus @ 147, the fight gets made. None of this catchweight BULL ****. Both guys need to MAN UP right! This is for the WW belt. Man the **** up..... and fight at 147.

When Roach talks like this, you know hes got something good waiting for PBF, but only if he took the bait.

Roach sounds very confident. I think Floyd is in trouble here. If boxing is a science, Freddie Roach carries a doctorate.

Pacquiao fans are clearly upset at these #'s, these PPV returns without a doubt puts Floyd in the drivers seat. I learned back in 2001 that you never bet against Mayweather. It's ironic and funny, they said Mayweather-Marquez wouldn't sell and it shattered expectations, they said Pac-Cotto would break records and it came in significantly lower than predicted. What it all means is that any popular fighter vs Mayweather is a finacially more rewarding, Floyd, like it or not, is the draw.

Have you heard "Never bet agaisnt Pac"? That's been the buzz dude. How much have you lost so far betting against Pacman?

[mathed]

50/50 is a no brainer move by both parties (Pac should get slightly more in my opinion) but I still feel that having this said by Roach, Floyd will still wnt 60% just so the fight does not happen. I said it before and Arum said it yesterday, Floyd's record means more to him than anything, it defines and sustains his persona. If he loses the 0, he is just another guy who lost a fight. I also have my own beliefs why he does not want to lose stemming back to his turbulent childhood and what the undefeated record really means to him......it means more than money.

OWNED

Green K

142 LBS will be a good weight for the Pac/May fight. both giving up something. lol

[versatech]

Bottomline PAC/Cotto sold more than PBF/Marquez.Who cares if it didn't 1.6m buys,this is not history lesson the most recent is the better guage.
As Roach said he thinks PAC deserves more, but 50/50 is the only way to get the fight done.So no more excuses! If PBF don't accept he's ducking PAC plain and simple.

[misterced]

roach ok trainer but i agree on 50 50 but roger mayweather is a better but listen to this trainers dont win fights fighters do i think pac is fighting his last fight and looking for the most money posible i saw flaws in manny in that fight with cotto if cotto had a right hand he would have knocked manny out please freddie roach stop with this 145 **** 147 is the weight class so fight at 147 pac proably walk around between 150 145

what we ight though

[versatech]

Roach's idea of additional purse for the winner is the icing on the cake. if PBF is so confident he can win hell get the bigger share so no mre excuses !
