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

[Horus]

it has only been 14 days/ 2 weeks everybody calm down... LOL
the fight is not until May 1.

Let the Lawyers do their job.

pacquiao had negotiation problems against hatton, cotto and floyd
floyd had negotiation problems with pacquiao
so who's the bigger diva?

Pacquiao ACTUALLY SIGNED the deal with hatton and Cotto. Floyd jr. caused the negotiations to fall out when he INSISTED on the blood tests when random urine tests were more than sufficient.

All he had to do was to NOT insist on a blood test which NEVER CAUGHT ANYONE ANYWAY and that is a fact.

Plus, he walked away from the Dela Hoya rematch even after all the details were already ironed out. Then this embarrassing snafu with Mosley. If none of you floyd diehard fans can see this pattern, then its your choice to ignore reality.

LOL. The lawyers ALREADY DID THEIR JOB. The only thing remaining IS A SINGLE EFFING SIGNATURE BY FLOYD.

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

What people call being a diva is what businessmen call knowing your worth. These people shed blood sweat and tears to get where they are and naturally, they should fight for all that they are worth both inside and outside of the ring. What puzzles me with Floyd's actions now is that there is NOTHING HE HAS TO HAGGLE OR ARGUE ABOUT.

Both parties are in full agreement of all the pertinent details and the only thing remaining is his signature and nothing else.

All he needs to do is take ten seconds (or more, depending how fast he signs his signature) and the deal is done! Yet until now, we have NOTHING.

Obivousy you never had to sign any type of contracts in your life, because if you did you would understand that once you agree to the terms of the contract, then the lawyers check out the legality of the contract and tie up any loopholes and clean up any wet spots their may be in the contract.
It is called making sure everybody honors the contract legally without finding a loophole to jump out of.

Say Mayweather vs. Mosely does 1.5 million buys.
and Say Mayweather agree to give Mosley additional 500k for every number over 1.2 million homes. Now let's say in the contract it writes that Mosley is entitled to 500k in addition to bonuses for every number over 1.2 million homes.

That right there would be a loophole for Mosley/Goldenboy to claim more money than Mayweather agreed too.

This is why it is up to the Lawyers too look for and find loopholes in the contract so this type of situation does not happen.

this **** usually takes up to 2 weeks to be thoroughly done so calm down and LET THE LAWYERS DO THEIR JOBS.

"I confirmed with Leonard that there are no issues," Burstein said.

"He still hasn't signed. I am so frustrated," Schaefer said. "I wanted both guys to go down to the Super Bowl in Miami to do some promotional stuff. I don't know what Floyd is waiting for. I have no clue. I have a signed contract from Shane on my desk. I have nothing from Floyd."


Yes, yes. It does take time for these matters to finish, but in this case, all the papers are done already. All the pertinent points are ironed out. All that is left is for him to sign the dotted line.

ALL THEY NEED NOW IS HIS SIGNATURE.

Do you get it?

Do you read anything I just wrote to you...???

"All of the deal points have been agreed to,"

Leonard Ellerbe said. "We still have to put pen to paper, but everything is agreed to. It's with the lawyers."
