Comments Thread For: Koncz: Mayweather Not Serious, Trying To Get Attention

[Everywhere]

I guarantee that within 24 hours the pacaholics will just go back to spamming about Floyd is scared of Manny and act like none of this ever happened.

I think we've speculated enough about the whole thing really. for myself, i just want to see the fight go down. I want to see who the best pound for pound fighter in the world is period. May 5th sounds good to me. if you pay any attention to the sport that's when the biggest fights in the sport go down. MGM is the place it should be, its the mecca like it or not. I don't see the problem with it, or with Mayweather's team saying so. I think all this talk about mind games and such played by Mayweather's camp is silly.
Do you people really think that a person of Pacquiao's makeup would be affected by this statement. Seriously ask yourself this question: Why would a man that has rose from third world obscurity to become a global icon as one of the best professional prize fighters' ever along with becoming a political representative of his people give a damn about what Leonard Ellerbe had to say? Do you really think he's shook? The man is the best in the world at punching people in the face for a living! It's Bob Arum folks.

If it is true that Mayweather said this, so what! This whole thing about negotiating where the event should be is a load of ****. They have supposedly been "negotiating" for going on 3 years! I think they have somewhat of a clue of what venues are willing to offer. Especially Bob Arum. The man has been a promoter longer than half of us have been alive.
I think he has a relative clue. Vegas makes a killing on this weekend.The event is astronomical in terms of the revenue that will be brought in. Vegas will not let it go anywhere else, nor should they. The only thing that should stop it from happening is Pacquiao either losing to Marquez or taking serious punishment during the course of the fight . Konz is a nonentity. Its a great date and venue for the fight . If it doesn't happen at this point, then when? Again if doesn't go down this time, you can thank Bob Arum.

A 70-30 split is what ODH offered floyd. Its not as off as you think. But money isn't the reason. Bob said its manny's right hand.

let me get this right:

you expect pac to accept a 70/30 split? [not in his favor]

[Fetta]

Arum already beginning to complain about the site and that this is no way to negoatiate a fight. So placing a website with a countdown is the way to do it Bob. Saying cowboy stadium has 30 mil on table for fight. So if so much money is there in Texas then why you having Pac fight in Vegas? Vegas is the boxing capitol of the world...done. Bob wont allow this fight to happen. Hes not done milking Manny yet and Bradley is next. But Pac fans will say its FLoyd not wanting this fight.

And school Pac in the process , Floyd has no legs thats what you said how can can he run , he has stood and forced back both Mosley and Ortiz , you have no credibility kid your like Arum **** scared to see Pac fight Floyd , you just flip flop from post to post .

FLOYD HAS CALLED HIM OUT , PAC HAS NEVER CALLED FLOYD OUT , well come on ******* ******* get on you mans case to take Floyd up on it .

Stop with this non-sense. They have both talked about fighting each other. They have both effectively "called" each other out. Neither fighter is afraid of the other. Neither promoter is afraid of a loss. Both camps legitimately believe that their guy is going to win. The only reason that this fight has not happened is because both fighters have huge ego's, and refuse to have anything dictated to them. Once that gets set aside; the fight will happen. To think differently is simply d!(kriding fanboy-ism.

pacman did an interview yesterday on jim rome. rome asked him why the fight wont take place was it due to testing and manny said no, testing is all agreed upon and that

FLOYD REFUSED 100 MILLION DOLLARS and keeps asking for more and more


this kids, is called pricing yourself out so you dont have to fight....

who in gods name refuses 100 million dollars?

Yeah right, like Manny saying that he won't fight for a 50/50 split. That, my friend, is pricing yourself out. Especially when it concerns the #1 PPV prize fighter.

This is getting ridiculous. This fight's not going to happen.

Show me Pac calling Floyd out , not answering a question would you like the fight and then say we dont need Floyd , actually calling him out ?

[project xxx1]

**** Koncz

that is all

[jrosales13]

Yes. I think even though ODH was the favorite Bob knew he could negotiate certain clauses to maximise manny's chances. He also knew with freddy he could pinpoint ODH's weaknesses.

I was surprised by how thouroughly manny dominated ODH.

LOL like?

Roach knew ODH wouldn't be able to pull the trigger in that fight, why wouldn't Arum?

Roach didn't know anything...He believed which is different. You can't know something until is done.

Both Arum and Roach understood that they had nothing to lose going into the fight but everything to win. But, they made it cuz' they knew? No.

If pac lost, he was suppose to lose. People would have shitted on Oscar for even picking on a blown up SFW. If Pac won then we got what we got now. So they had everything to win but nothing to lose. That's what they knew.
