Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather Driven Crazy When Pacquiao Fights

[LeadUppercut]

For those who have little math skills, Pac makes at least double what Mayweather makes in a year.

Dont be ridiculous. Pacquiao makes much less than Mayweather, and then he pays 27% to Arum and 5%? to GBP..... he is short millions.

Explain to me why Arum is talking about Mayweather when his #1 prize fighter is on ppv in less then a week?

You forgot one small thing! Add up their earning for the year. 1 fight compared to 3. Pac makes more each year.

[richardt]

READ THE WORD "YEAR". Pac makes more in a year than Mayweather. 1 fight to 3.

Pacquiao

9. I need a 17 day cutoff.

10. Let the Commission do their job

11. We don't trust USADA

12. 50/50 split won't get it done even though Mayweather consistently beats me in terms of generating revenue. Yes, Pacquiao recently said he wants more than 50/50.

13. Mayweather may not be available due to his cases.

14. Floyd Mayweather SR. said we couldn't train in the PI so that tells us they aren't serious.

15. As long as we have a pending case against Mayweather, we obviously aren't going to fight.

16. We hate Golden Boy so we won't negotiate with them.

17. Mayweather didn't answer my online clock that counted down to zero.

18. We're not going to wait on Mayweather. That's why we sign our next opponent 3 days after our last fight in order to shut out an opportunity or window to start earnest discussions with the Mayweather camp.

19. I dont need Mayweather to enhance my career.

20. Joshua Clottey fight days after Mayweather negotiations broke down. Arum ran so fast once blood testing was brought up...everything else was agreed to.

21. Manny might have some Congressman **** to do on May 5th.

22. Mayweather is fighting Morales. That's the "little fella" he's been talking about. Hope everyone believes that long enough for us to sign Bradley right after Nov 12 then blame the fake rumors for us not signing with Floyd and rushing to sign Bradley.


Am I missing any?

Utter bull****. Golden Boy WERE taking money from Pacquiao fights due to the contract dispute, but that came solely out of Top Rank's cut, Pacquiao gave them nothing himself. That contract in question ended last year, and if you'd noticed Pacquiao hasn't been listed as a GBP fighter for a while on their site. Stop the lies.

As for the % he pays Arum, that 27% came out of Floyd's mouth and we all know to take what he says with a grain of salt. Pac probably pays the rate most pay their promoters.

Yes, you missed the part where Arum and Pac agreed to ALL testing demands: WADA/USADA, and the cutoff point. Next.

It's easy to say they agree with the testing when they are coming up with BS excuses elsewhere. Don't believe for a second they want this fight.
