Comments Thread For: Mayweather Sr. Says Floyd's $100 Mill Demand Unrealistic

[chinoy]

yeah right...you are only level headed when it comes to Mayweather Jr.....who do you think you are fooling

I'm still level headed. I'm just not feeling the direction the sport is going in and like it or not. Bob Arum and Manny Pacquiao are the cause of it mostly. I'm a fan of the sport not just one person.

Floyd gets NO PROPS because he is not active. Manny gets NO PROPS because he is active but just not fighting the best. How obvious does it have to be to see that?

its funny how you spin it like floyd is not responsible for anything... and somehow he gets no props by default because he is inactive...

NO, floyd gets no props because he claimed he was ready to prove to the world and his fans that he is #1 by fighting pac (with tests) & fighting MARTINEZ... but instead, he went on vacation... he talked big, and he BAILED...

of course pac is getting criticized for fighting shane now (he deserves it).... but i promise you it will be more entertaining and will do good numbers... and that is ABSOLUTELY no indication that floyd is the SUPERIOR fighter.... simply put, manny will engage and open up to shane... floyd tried to engage, got tagged, then closed up and pot-shotted the rest of the fight.... the crowd was asleep by the end of it.... i still give floyd respect for nullifying shane, but after seeing mora do it also, it took the luster off of floyds work.... REAL TALK.

shane/margs was a treat to fans... we can only hope that pac/shane will do the same... hopefully it wont turn out to be like pac/margs...

Floyd tookthe fight to shane and he couldnt do nothing becuase Floyd was the Superior fighter. margarito only got knocked when he was suppose to kill shane. That's the only thing that made interesting. I think pacman/mosley will be interesting because it will.feature 2 fighters that are subpar in comparison to Floyd

How on Earth did this warrant 32 pages of discussion?

I feel you.
I'm also a fan of the sport and the sport seems to be pretty much the same.
People have been trying to make the most money for the easiest work for years. I agree with you, manny's last 2 opponents had a lot to be desired. A lot of people think that, even Pac fans.
But defending Floyd in any thread about the negotiations is a little too much, don't you think? How is this helping your love of the sport of boxing?

He has to justify why Floyds balls are lodged in his esophagus.

of course they are....

floyd deserves credit for schooling shane for sure. on paper, floyd fighting #1 WW was a big deal... but shane turned out to be a dud, he couldnt pull the trigger... naz was begging the guy to do something. plus shanes poor performance with mora.

same thing about pac/oscar... on paper, oscar was the favorite... if pac beat oscar, it was going to be huge... but oscar showed up drained and not himself... excuses started piling up...

hindsight is a b!tch... but sometimes it puts things in perspective.

Great post.

During the promotion of the recent Miguel Cotto-Ricardo Mayorga contest, it was easy to spot just how chummy former rival promoters Don King and Bob Arum where throughout the lead up to the fight. It had been five years since the duo had collaborated together in such a fashion, going back to the April 2006 Floyd Mayweather-Zab Judah bout, and Arum has left the door open for working with King in the future.

$100mil WTF? Crazy ****.

That is either a " ***-off " response, or was made tongue-in-cheek.

When did that happen? First time I ever heard of it?

[GRUSTLER]

I'm not even trying to debate people that can't keep an open mind. Fact of the matter is that Pac walked away from the fight so stop trying to justify a 2nd negotitation because there shouldn't have been a 2nd negotitation if Pac just accepted the deal in the first place, if he was going to do it later. Why did he need to think about? I been a fan of Sergio Martinez since his fight against Alex Bunema on HBO. Before that I didn't know who he was but when I saw him box I knew he was good. What's so wrong with being a fan of a good fighter? Since when is being a fan of different fighters a bad thing? I'm also a fan of Donaire as of recent because he is a good fighter as well. Does that make me a Donaire groupie as well? I think the fact that Pac fans are eating his crap up, makes them the biggest groupies because the sport of boxing is not. Manny was talking about giving blood makes him weak as stated after he lost to Morales but he also made other excuses like "I had the wrong gloves". Pac fans call other people names, disrespect and label them but don't even know what is going down in the sport of boxing. I can care less what Pac fans think because I know for sure what I post is on point and can be researched and found to be documented. Pac fans talk only about how great Manny is and nothing else. What a joke.
