Is Floyd deserving enough to demand $100m to fight Manny

[physiker]

Yes, that was several years back before the economy tanked. Lewis should have took the offer..

Thanks.

Well I think here Calz summarized it, that when you have plenty of $, you shouldn't keep fighting only for more money if you feel like it's time to quit, and you've accomplished all you wanted to, and are secure in many ways.

It's what the fighter wants, even if millions of fans would like to see him continue. Gotta be his decision alone.

Ali kept fighting for money, fans, and whatever other reasons. Very sad result. Can happen from just one punch too, a la Watson vs Eubank. If you got plenty and a great legacy, why risk it?

Lets just say the testing is no longer a issue, and what Arum has been saying is true....in that Floyd has demanded $100m, guaranteed, to fight Manny.
Is he deserving enough to demand that?

Mayweather isn't demanding 100 million for the fight... Koncz made that claim.

Koncz also stated that Pacquiao never agreed to random testing... you believe that, right?

Sense the hypothetical tone of my post please.....

Ig he gives me $100,000 I will definitely agree for him to be paid that kind of $$

Both Pac and Mayweather don't deserve that much money.

NO ONE IN BOXING DESERVES THAT MUCH FOR A FIGHT, UNLESS THE FIGHT SELLS GROSSES 200 MILLION+.

But Pacquiao fans will say that Manny deserves it, even though hes only been a draw for 3-4 years, and Mayweather has been for a long time.

Mayweather has not been a draw for a long time.

If anything, Manny was headlining PPVs before Floyd.

WHAT?? OMG I cant believe what I just heard. There should be no question as to if Floyd is a draw or not, regardless of why people tune in "some say to see him lose" they STILL tune in.

Compare any Floyd fight to the same person Pac fought, and Floyd sometimes leads 700,000+, you want the chart?

Are you ******, slow or just dumb?

I didn't say Mayweather is not a draw. What I said was, in plain english,

Mayweather has not been a draw for a long time.

Mayweather has not been a draw for along time and thats a fact. Oscar De La Hoya has been a draw for long time. Floyd has been a draw for just a few years.

Depends how much the fight grosses.

The reason Floyd likes lady gaga so much is because in 1996 she surgically had her wiener removed and donated it to Floyd to cover up his vagina.
