Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Pacquiao Can Forget 50-50 if Our PPV Wins

[incredible]

As expected, Floyd Mayweather Jr. has gone on the record and told Manny Pacquiao that he can forget a 50-50 deal if the fight with Shane Mosley does better on pay-per-view than Manny's fight with Joshua Clottey. Pacquiao defends his WBO welterweight title against Clottey on March 13. Mayweather faces WBA champion Mosley on May 1. If Mayweather's pay-per-view has better buyrate numbers than Pacquiao's fight with Clottey, Mayweather will demand a bigger slice of the cake when, and if, the two boxers ever try to negotiate a fight again.

This fight ant happening. Floyd implying this, is basically saying, I want no part of Pacquiao. If these are his terms an he's serious...forget it...this fight will be a fantasy fight for the ages; that never happen. Which he has knack for stacking the deck against fighters, and I do not see Pacquiao agreeing to these terms. No ***ing way! I can see he is trying his best though to goat Pacquiao in every interview he has; by mentioning Pacquiao's name, but try as he will an try as he might, his games will not work. Pacquiao told him no once already...expect a hell no the next time around....if he comes knocking at the door with these joke of a terms.

i guess he beat some top guy's at 147 huh did he beat a top 5 or even 7 guy lol come on get face first hatton other here you tryin to put this guy as a good opponent is just funny the man is and was hype (and so is khan)

Yea, this is POINTLESS talking with you.

Luis Collazo was the WBA CHAMP when Hatton beat him.

I'm done...scram.

[Sugar Q]

Get your facts dude. You cannot compare Floyd's resume to Pac. What does he got? Cherry picked opponents from lower divisions?

Sure I can let's see:
Pacroid
Marquez controversial win
David Diaz stopped by Kendall Holt
Oscar loss to Floyd, depleted making weight
Hatton KO'd by Floyd
Cotto coming off wars with Judah,Mosley then KO'd by Cheato then another near loss to Clottey
Clottey a proven ball dropper

Floyd
Oscar for title at 154 no catch-wt (biggest PPV in boxing history)
Hatton unbeaten
Marquez chasing Pacroid get's shut down
Mosley coming off Cheato crushing

[V.WEBB]

actually you fail, he didnt fight twice at welterweight after collazo.

I DON'T fail.

I was saying that he fought TWO MORE TIMES AFTER FIGHTING LUIS AT 147.

I know what I'm talking about.

Trust me.

Tbh I was surprised Pac got 50-50 the first time around.

I agree with you there man.

Floyd- Oscar: highest PPV numbers Oscar ever got
Floyd-Ricky: highest PPV numbers Ricky ever got
Floyd-Juan Manuel: highest PPV numbers Juan Manuel ever got.

All these opponents faced Manny too, yet those fights did less PPV numbers. In all fairness 60-40 in favor of Floyd is fair.

I'm NOT justifying that he is a welterweight.

What I AM doing is dispelling the notion that the weight was a problem for him when he fought Floyd.

They WANTED to fight Floyd at 147.



Plus, Hatton has a history of ballooning up weight in between fights.

So logic says, that it would be easier for Hatton to make 147 than 140.

Besides, Floyd was the champ in the division, so Hatton HAD to move up to fight him. The same way when Hatton was the champ at 140 and Pac HAD to move up to fight him. The same way when Oscar was the champ at 154 and Floyd HAD to move up to fight him. The same way when Ruiz was the champ at heavyweight, Roy HAD to move up to fight him. It happens in the sport. I just get upset when you guys are not consistent and don't look at the facts.

logic would say it would be easier for hatton to make 147, but that doesnt make it his best fighting weight. hatton was a light welterweight for a reason. he would weigh in at 140 and then come in on fight night at 150 -155. that was hattons main advantage. he would weigh more on fight night. but when he weighs inn at 147, his opponents come in heavier on fight night. look at the collazo fight, hatton was much smaller. mayweather had a 6 inch reach advantage over hatton.

hatton was also the champ in his division when he fought mayweather. so it could have taken place at 140. but mayweather knew that would be losing an advantage.

I know what I'm talking about.

Trust me.

In other words i need mosley to make me get the edge on the bargaining table for next time.Its not abt "me,myself and i" bringing ppv's alone anymore.



Cant get anymore obvious

Man, you don't get what I'm saying.

Hatton fought TWO more times after he BEAT LUIS AT 147 FOR THE WBA TITLE.

THEN he went back to 140 to fight Urango and Castillo.

He stopped Castillo with a body shot, then called out Floyd.

Do you get me now?

I was saying that he fought two more times AFTER he beat Luis at 147 and BEFORE he fought Floyd at 147.

We clear, sorry for the confusion.
