Comments Thread For: Mayweather Talks: Not Interested in Pacquiao Right Now

[Spacey1991]

Nah I was completely wrong to say that, I said it forgetting what had happened and came across as a twat saying it to be honest... hitting women is a ****ing pathetic thing to do, he deserved whatever **** comes to him... the downside is that if he does time there is a more chance of it never happening. Maybe she will just take him for a few million, who knows.

What I basically mean is that we all might suffer from Rogers scummy actions.

[Shabba Rank$]

I don't hope that. I hope he does a few years for beating up on that poor girl.

Floyd can get another pad man anywhere.

Yes Floyd can get another Pad man anywhere.

But he can't get another guy named Roger Mayweather to be in his corner (if he goes to jail).

lol don't worry, i know you're one of the few unbiased floyd/manny fans around

but yeah, he should pay the price somehow. if it doesn't affect the fight, then awesome

i may do some strangling too if this **** doesn't get signed soon

Anyone who says Floyd is scared of Manny is a ****in idiot! He's a professional fighter, that's his job. He's just not taking the fight now cuz if he does that would put his 2010 earnings at over 80 mil when its all said and done, and he knows the IRS would then **** him with no lube! Just relax, its gonna go down next May, write it down.

In like the 1951-63 the tax rate for a person making $400,000+ was 91%

Todays tax rate is 35% for anything over $373,650.

So it doesnt matter if how much FLoyd makes, whether it is 65 mil or 100mil, the tax rate will still be 35%

So your 80 mil number is completely worthless

@Big Smoke, and we all know there is no way Floyd Jr. will fight with Sr. in his corner. Floyd Jr. has spent his whole career trying to separate himself from his father and knows his father would try to steal the spotlight from Floyd Jr. if he wins with him in his corner..

[Vader21]

I truly feel sorry for Mayweather fans. After all the noise they like to talk it looks like their boy let them down and they now they scrambling for excuses.

[SluggerFan]

@Vader, the bottom line, it sucks for all of us!!!

[Spacey1991]

so boxing fans should excuse him for him not wanting to exceed 80million? ha has exceeded that figure before, so why not now?

simply ******ed

Not in one year, what they mean is if he exceeds that much in one year he will get taxed even more than usual... but if he waits until 2011 he can keep more to himself and to be honest I wouldn't put it past him, the guy does fight for money and I wouldn't be suprised... its just ten times easier to say that your on vacation.

I am not saying that is what has happened, I am saying its something to take into consideration... like the thing with Roger, he might just need to see how things pan out and saying hes on vacation at the moment might be the easiest way to say things.

This is a might, I am not saying it is or isn't... its just another thought other than people calling him a scared coward cause to be honest I don't think these guys fear each other.

[patpatpts]

he fight pac in 2011 because he don't want to pay all that tax **** in 2010

[Frighteous]

He's waiting for Pac to plateau.

Juice or no juice, when a man plateaus unless he's doing everything 100% healthy(this means nobody, except maybe 3 or 4 active fighters that include mayweather, hopkins and bradley and possibly dzinziruk), he will have a 2 year falloff period after the plateau. This only occurs in world level sports that require lots of anaerobic activity like boxing. He's waiting for him to show a sign of weakness and then expect Mayweather to come back in full force, similar to Leonard with Hagler.
