Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: Mayweather Has No Reason Not To Fight Me

[decipher]

A drug dealer never stole from me? Really? Did he pay taxes on that money he earned. That is stealing when I pay taxes for kids to go to school, to pay for police and firemen, etc. So, yes, he stole from me and every other working American. And being a coke dealer means he has destroyed peoples lives. ******** didn't destroy anyone's life. So, Manny may have gotten in bar fights when he was 16 or whatever, he was on the street when he was 12. Pretty good turnaround. Roger is beating women, Mayweather's bodyguard is on trial for shooting at someone who Floyd tussled with. Come on, Floyd is a grown man who pissed all his money away and his entire family has a history of violence and crime.

you sound like one of those ****** bitter old red necks or forgotten veterans..you are worried about the next man paying a few dollars in taxes rather than a corporation stealing billions..you are simple minded my friend..jim crow would have had a blast with you..btw drug dealers pay taxes with purchases and are actually a striving part of this economy and single handedly brought a state of florida from obscurity to a striving state in the 70s and 80s. you the type that if you lived in a ****** you would be looking out your window all day calling the cops on people...all im saying is that if your stuck and need help somewhere and pac and floyd was to cross your path we cant say who would and would not help you based on your logic.

I like your business venture analogy here. The wild card in these negoiations will be the power-brokers from HBO who will have the contractual rights to broadcast and replay this PPV mega-fight. If it all comes down to $$, then I believe that Mayweather will have to meet Pacquaio in the middle, provided that his 14-day concession is genuine. I beleive that 10 days out would be accceptable to the HBO excutives; it is a more restrictive deal than the former offer which was REJECTED by Team Pacquaio at the beginning of 2010.

Team Mayweather has to get this concession because no legal mind worth his salt would negotiate off of that 14-day window which was allowed to lapse or, given the express statements of Team Paqcuio outright rejected.

The deal will be a 50/50 split, clean and simple with a 10 day OST cut-off: per HBO wishes. 10 days is a duration of time which is commonly accepted in the field of law for its objective reasonableness. If Team Pacquiao can work with 14 days then it is reasonable for them to accept 10 days as well if that will seal the deal.

ask yourself this, what is pac bringing to the table? what more is he bringing than may? hes not.

floyd has the highest PPV # and gate. he generates the most interest.

so what is pac bringing to the table, his bs FOTD title? haha

floyd can rightfully make more demands than pac, get the lions gate share as well as demand RANDOM testing meaning no cut off dates. which he said was off the table

only thing pac can hope for is that floyd is fair. team pac ****ed up and they know they arent in any positions of power

[4Eyez226]

******, i swear. theres no original anything. the offer came off the table when he walked away from the fight. secondly, floyd stated it.

how can you agree to something that doesnt exist? *******ed

Ok seriously, I just want this fight to happen. So it really doesn't matter to me whats the cut-off date, etc. But theres a real question that I haven't seen anybody as yet.

Why is it that all the *****s here pretend as if Mayweather pushed a button, like a permanent button where he can't fix this whole situation. He just needs to say something along the lines of " I know I said forget the offer, but im not scared of pac I want to fight him so its back since he agrees to do it now."

He's not gonna get punished by god if he decideds to say **** it, I wanna fight him so lets do the 14 days. Its really ****** how all the *****s are really supporting this bs.

@HitKing... I didn't say either one was far and away better than the other. Even if Mayweather would have lost to Castillo in their first fight, he did win convincingly in his second fight, just like Manny aqainst Morales in their rematches. My point was all things being equal (quality of opposition, etc.), being 27-1-1 (I mistaken said 28-1 earlier) with 21 KOs looks much better and provides more exciting fights than 18-0, 8 KOs. I never said Mayweather ducked anyone and but both guys bypassed some guys however Mark Too Sharp Johnson was a Don King fighter who was mishandled and everyone knows, you fight a King fighter and you give up options so I don't hold that against him. Plus, he was pretty much over the hill because Rafael Marquez beat him pretty easily when they fought...

So, all I am saying is, they looked at the records, quality of opposition and I think the KO ratio is probably what pushed Manny over the edge. And for the record, Genaro Hernandez was finished (I had seen him fight live 3 times and he was nowhere near rthe same fighter after the war he had with Azumah Nelson) when Mayweather beat him and now that poor guy is fighting for his life....

You're doing the same thing to Mayweather what some Pacquaio haters have tried to do to some of his wins. No one was making excuses for de la Hoya prior to fighting Pac. But after Pac whips his ass, they're trying to sat de la Hoya was dehydrated. That's bull****. Everyone thought de la Hoya was gonna destroy Pac. Just because we don't get the result we thought doesn't mean its time to start making excuses. The fact is, heading into Mayweather-Mosley, most felt it was the either the #1 or #2 P4P fighter in the world fighting the #3 P4P fighter in the world. Everything that happen to Mosley in that fight I credit to Mayweather. Just like everything that happen to de la Hoya I credit Pac. Hell, people were saying Cotto was ruined from the plaster. But you don't seem to want to take any credit away from Pac's win. Why are you trying to take away from Money's?

if DLH wasnt dehydrated, then why did they have to try to rehydrate him through IV drip, why did they have to take him to the hospital after the fight b.c of DEHYDRATION.


go sit in a corner, dunce

@JayPro, somebody stated I didn't know boxing and that a drug dealer never stole from me. My response was to clarify a drug dealer has stolen from me. But you are right, we all on here trying to make my point. And the bottom line is, everyone loses if the fight don't get made. Mayweather lose's because he can't make $40 million fighting anyone else (which his debts are all paid from Mosley but he is still broke), Manny doesn't get $40 million either (but he doesn't need it) and we don't get to find out who the best fighter is (it can only be settled in the ring). Bottom line is Manny is putting himself out there stating a 50-50 purse with a 14-day cutoff drug testing date and the fight is on. Sounds fair when the world is divided 50-50 on who the better fighter is...

Look, I'm a fan of both fighters, but it's sad that with most people, if you like one you have to totally discredit the other. They are both great boxers and I just hope the fight gets made.

do you not understand, RANDOM testing?

random is random. having a cutoff date isnt random. use your brain

The problem now is that Mayweather and Pacquaio wouldn't be entering this business agreement as equal partners. Mayweather has gone out and established himself as a "bigger shareholder" so to speak.

33 years old and only 41 pro fights.

DAMN!! Floyd being a ***** again about drug testing so we gotta see another PAC vs NON-MAYWEATHER fight .. come on FLOYD.. PAC is showing more effort than you to make the mega fight happen for the fans.

@ Decipher, dude you are so off base I don't know where to start. All I can say is your speculation is downright ridiculous and for the record, I do live in a ****** and have never called the cops on anyone.
