    Respectfully, the numbers tell a different story. Manny has yet to be paid what floyd has. Without manny, floyd fights martinez for likely $25 mil. Without floyd, manny fights marg or cotto for maybe $15-18 mil. Maybe the manny fight does 1 mil ( tough to assume 1.25 mil like manny cotto 1). Floyd martinez does 1 mil easy.

    Bottom line, like floyd or hate him more people pay more to see him fight than manny.
    Floyd only gets his garauntee if he fights someone that they can promote. Someone that the fans want to see. Nobody just pays to see floyd fight. Hell even he knows this but his groupies don't get it.

Mayweather still won't sign, now keep reading over the part where I state "Pac agrees to all of it", strictly hypothetical and Floyd says nah I don't feel like doing it, even if his demands were met...you support that?
      What makes you THINK if his demands are met, he won't sign? I mean, name ALL of the times that his demands WERE met and he walked and while you are at it, name his demands. But, I know what it its though. You would RATHER him not sign, just to dog him and call him a duck.

        So what. If you believe that or not. You probably thought that in March. Guess what. 1.4 MILLION PEOPLE DISAGREED WITH YOUR OPINION!!!!

              you don't think floyd vs the middleweight champ, who is coming off the best fight in the last 8 months, couldn't be marketed in a way floyd would make his guarantee?

                Don't waste your time man. No one, I mean no one, pays to see Floyd fight. They ONLY pay to see his opponent.

                    So, a BoxingScene.com writer is trying to apply pressure on Mayweather to agree to Arum's terms, with "Blame Mayweather" in the title. They didn't get at Pacquiao when he supposedly wasn't agreeing to a 50/50 deal with the drug testing now later than 2 weeks before the fight. They're still negotiating, we don't even know the details yet and we're supposed to blame Floyd just because this writer says so without making any points. This guy's trying to threaten Mayweather's legacy with media influence and saying he'll be regarded as a safety-first guy instead of a defensive genius, etc, etc. It's BS that Arum has this kind of influence, and that the media hates Mayweather so much they try and pull things like this. I don't see how it's justified. Everyone's supposed to be quiet until the deal is done or falls through. This article is shameful. At least right now, Mayweather's team is being quiet like they're supposed to be during the negotiations.

                    Because you don't matter and you don't need to know the details. I'm sorry but you're not as important as you think you are. They don't have to confirm with you before it happens. All of Floyds recent demand have been met. Arum and GBP's confirmed this. Both sides fool. But instead you have trust in the ****in Mayweather's ex crack dealing weezles. Oh I'm sure they are honest.

                      When did they confirm that all demands have been met?
