Has there ever been a boxer more diva-like about contracts than Floyd Mayweather Jr.?

[letsgobrady]

Not to start this never ending chicken or the egg argument again and again, but if all that's true and floyd wanted this fight so badly and more than any other fight, then why the crazy drug test demands? lol kinda kills the argument right there. He wanted the fight so badly and yet he wouldn't drop the one thing that would kill the fight. Makes no sense.

floyd said that everyone he fights as well as himself will have to take these test not only pacquiao,if pacquiao wants to fight floyd so bad why not take random drug test?

For anyone to suggest Mayweather didnt want the fight shows how limited their knowledge of boxing or they're a Pac fan. You dont say yes to a 10 million dollar penalty and you dont continue trying to negotiate while your opponent has lined up 2 or 3 fighter already if you dont want a fight.

There is something about Mayweather that makes intelligent poster write dumb sometimes.

TBH guys I don't think either guy wanted that fight. I was talking to Jrosales about this and we both agreed that March was too soon for these guys. I think they both want more time to prepare and promote. I'm confident this fight will get done later this year if they both win their next fights. I always blamed both guys for the fight not happening. I just think Pacquiao came out of it looking worse than Floyd.

No!!! its a crazy demand, But its the same demand that was accepted by Team Pacquiao and the same demand that Roach talked about before and how they would accept it.

But since Pacquiao refused it, Then its a crazy demand like boxing is the only sport that would ever do random testing, I done with trying to make people see sense and look straight.

Seriously dude.....i was actually going to write that word for word when i saw the title of the thread.....beat me to it.....


they are clearly both as bad as each other.............

not trying to be a ******* here, but he does have some excuses for it. he was the bigger international star for hatton and the p4p champ, but hatton did have a huge fan base, very tough negotiation. dont remember any problems with oscar. and with cotto there wasn't many problems except weight issue, manny was much bigger by that point. and can't him for the weight thing, 2 years ago people would have laughed if you said manny would be fighting cotto or even hatton for that matter. i am not all over manny's nuts here just taking his back on the issue, he fought in a lot of wars to get to that point in his career, he should be able to make the demand now. manny had to fight morales in their first fight with winnings.

oscar almost fought everyone where as bernard could of fought jones in a rematch but it didn't happen he could of fought calzaghe but it didn't happen and you now have more recently seen it happen when he tried to get a fight with adamek

Yeah, His name is Manny Pacquiao..

IN THE FIRST POST LMFAO!!!!

[gratz_the_king]

when you make 40 million in a fight..youd be diva like as well..

the other fighters sign contracts in a heartbeat cuz they are desperate for money..

floyd on the other hand can do what the **** he wants since theres so much money on the table

pac would do it, pavlik would do it, malignaggi would do it, mosley would do it, etc. etc. if they made that much money too...

money changes people, and if it doesnt change you it means youre not making enough

now leave floyd alone

[LilFloyd]

pac - clottey is signed while floyd still looking for a way out against mosley

that should tell you something

pacquiao had negotiation problems against hatton, cotto and floyd
floyd had negotiation problems with pacquiao
