Comments Thread For: Team Pacquiao: Floyd Mayweather Demands More Money

[Russian Crushin]

Money was going to be an issue, even before the Clottey fight.




Yeah Arum really is trying to make an effort since he's already throwing out Margarito's name in case Schaefer doesn't serve him the right drink during negotiations so they go on to 'Plan B' which is code for "was Plan A all along"



Then why did Manny "the people's champ, fights the best" Pacquiao chose to set aside Mosley who was ranked higher in the both P4P and WW lists and had just ANNIHILATED Margarito? Roach said because he wasn't a draw...WELL THEN WTF!!??? May-Mosley pulls in 1.5 more ppv's!!! Cotto practically sells out MSG, Mosley barely fills in floor seats at HDC.

DATED 2/14/2010, MAYWEATHER: "PACQUIAO CAN FORGET 50-50 IF OUR PPV WINS"

This ****s old news and Pacquiao failed in keeping up with PPV sales at "Jones Temple" and lets even compare the Cotto numbers, I already showed that Cotto was a draw and came in with 1.5 less than a man Roach didn't want Pac fighting.

I still dont get why people dont understand that Mosley was signed to fight Berto when Pac made the Clottey fight. A week later the earthquake hit and Berto had to cancel.....what was Pac suppose to do, leave the Clottey contract and go after Mosley? Dude GET REAL

gayweather will gonna demand pac to undergo dialysis in every round...and the usada will take 1 galon of blood as pac enters the ring

No more excuses, Floyd your starting to piss me off. Im not gonna take up for Floyd on this one, make the ****!ng fight happen Floyd!

iam glad to hear this from a mayweather fan..props to you for posting that..we only need the fight not the sharing of money!

[WESS]

while i think floyd would beat pac, i dont think he will have as easy a time as he had with mosely. i think pac will be much more competitive than shane or jmm. pac's more skilled than moes, faster and a southpaw.

I agree but we have seen what Mayweather could do to a bigger fighter. Older yes but Mosley IS and has been a SOLID WW. I wanted and still want to see Mayweather fight a BIG fighter.

Pac will not due. Pac does not have the size and MOST IMPORTANTLY the skill. He is light years behind in the mind game, and he would be no challenge when chess pieces come out. Pac will be defeated and I wouldn't be surprised if if was a KO/TKO due to his style of being off balance and his temptation of getting wild and retaliating..

Mayweather's great defensive, hit and not get his style would make Pac look ridiculous. But hey that's just me and I'm still for the fight. I'll be standing by for the excuses for Pac and how Mayweather has ducked Martinez and Pwill.....

They=Schaefer - stated 3 million, not Floyd or his team....

What is Schaefer to FLoyd? Hes almost like Arum to Pac,

[WESS]

Funny how everyone is talking **** about Mayweather when they haven't heard any word from his team lol, but this is all to common on this site, just like how Mayweather wouldnt fight Mosley but after the fight the SAME idiots still spoke out their asses lmao

Ouch, this my friend is truth and we all know the damn truth hurts.

[gwildcat77]

Floyd has a chance to be great with 50-50, but says no.

TOO MANY DEMANDS by this ******. Just get the FIGHT on already.. If FLOYD wants to go down in history as one of the best boxers of all time.. he NEEDS to take down PAC since PAC is one of the TOP DAWGS in his era.. and this opportunity IS THERE with 50-50?? what else can you ask for?

[FightTalent]

Before we point fingers, lets sit back and see where this goes - its all posturing which is common. I like the fact that Floyd's team is keeping the negotiations out of the media unlike Pac's side regardless of the demands on the table. Floyd's demand for more $ pending the ppv buys against Mosley is nothing new to Pac, his team or his fans, well some of his fans. Just as we all know Floyd will probably not get exactly what he wants on the testing issue. To say Floyd is ducking is ridiculous - this is BUSINESS.

[WESS]

big risk?? he was a 4 to 1 favorite to win. the poll on here had more 70% picking floyd to win. how is that a big risk?

So will we hear how Pac wasn't a big risk when its all done and said? I can easily see Mayweather being favored to beat (the same size as JMM) Pac.

[V.WEBB]

Team Mayweather issues a "no comment" regarding drug testing and sends a feeler looking for the lion's share of the purse. In turn, Team Pacquiao completely falls apart, openly negotiating the cut-off date against themselves and running to the media with the new demands. (****ing idiots, why? Not only does Mayweather not care about public opinion, but he's also built his entire persona around being "Money".)

Unbelievable. Is this really the same group that bullied Ricky Hatton at the bargaining table?

Good post. Yes, it is the same group.
