Mayweather says lies are being told; denies negotiations are taking place

[Sin City]

LOL at the bold. Anyways, why would a fighter need to reach out directly with another fighter's camp when he has people to represent him to do that? Think a little bit, dude. It's not rocket science. Schaffer (again, who works in business with Mayweather during his fights) reached out to Arum through the mediator (a judge) and Arum said that he was not interested and that he was pursuing a fourth fight with Manny and Marquez. Then Arum had the nerve to say that he wasn't going to sit and talk with the people needed to make the fight. You do the math.

like I said.. you can believe fight hype all you want but they've been changing their story up all week. i'm not about to believe anything they have said. the other story sounds more likely. all the investors have came out and verified it. i highly doubt koncz would travel to vegas, into mayweather's gym for a photo op and that mayweather would simply allow himself to get used for this publicity stunt.

[deejd]

The point is this, hes being called a coward and all kinds of madness, hes been active but mostly with fighthype. We are boxing fans, the average joe doesnt know what a boxingscene or a fighthype is..... And this is where we congregate....

The point is that the media will have no choice but to push this fight if say MAYWEATHER came and stated "HEY LETS SIT DOWN. LETS GET THIS MEDIATOR IN HERE" So no one can lie and say negotiations are going on when they arent etc..... The fact is simply this, FIGHTHYPE isnt as popular as the means that ARUM AND CO SIMPLY USE..... Floyd right now has momentum on his side, people really understand that he will whoop pacs ass..... But hes too busy in strip clubs and making it rain. I am a huge Floyd fan, as a look at my post will state this, but when will Floyd simply start to dog arum old ass out???? When will he pose questions to the media like, 1.) why do we need outside investors??? When we negotiated prior there were no investors??? 2.) Why is arum telling me I cant use GBP??? 3.) How can he (ARUM) be mad at me for trying to give the fans a good show and pac a good whooping may 5th, but he created that phoney deadline clock a while back....

KEEP IN MIND IMDAZED, YOU LOVE BOXING, I LOVE BOXING..... THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE SURFING TV HEARS THAT FLOYD IS AFRAID.....A COWARD EVEN.....

WITH THAT BEING THE CASE, HOW MANY PEOPLE HEAR COWARD VERSUS ACTUALLY READING BEHIND THE LINES OF WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON??? 99% OF THE PEOPLE TODAY FEEL *********S ARE OUT TO GET THEM FOR ****S SAKE LMAO.... PEOPLE FOLLOW THE MEDIA, AND SIMPLE COMMON SENSE QUESTIONS FROM FLOYD CAN END ALL OF THAT..... NOT HOW HES THE GREATEST ETC, BUT SIMPLE QUESTIONS AS I POSED ABOVE...

I DAILY VISIT BOXINGSCENE AND FIGHTHYPE AND *************** LOOKING AT THE LATEST NEWS...... BUT LETS FACE IT MOST PEOPLE ARE LIKE SKIP BAYLESS.... THEY REALLY DONT KNOW **** ABOUT BOXING BUT SIMPLY PARROT WHAT THEY HEARD.... I HAD HOMEBOYS THAT LOVE BOXING AND THOUGHT FLOYD WAS SCARED, BUT WHEN I TURNED THEM ON TO BOXINGSCENE AND FIGHTHYPE. ALL OF THAT CHANGED....

THAT ONE EYED *** "TELEVISION" IS POWERFUL ON PERCEPTION..... PEOPLE KNOW THE TRUTH WHEN THEY HEAR IT...

JUST AS THESE *******S HAVE CALMED DOWN AS OF LATE LOL....

I understand where you're coming from and I thought the exact same way after Mayweather beat Mosley and arum/pac and co. were spewing out garbage all the way up to the Margs fight.

With that being said, in hindsight, I actually like how Mayweather has gone about giving exclusive interviews to one site [fighthype] because it shows us [those who love boxing enough to follow sites like bs/fighthype/*********/bt/etc.] that whatever quotes we get of Mayweather when he does happen to speak to the media, we're getting the truth from the source itself.

Skip Bayless would never talk to Mayweather the way he always does if Mayweather appeared on first take.... ever. Wilbon didn't dare call Mayweather a coward and say the things he says about him on PTI when Mayweather was there. "ESPN doesn't know s--- about boxing." [Roger voice]

Now that Mayweather has remained pretty low key over the past three years about this fight... ESPN along with numerous sites and other media outlets have to eat crow and really reassess their stance on this issue or like roaches in the light, disappear and get silent. They just jumped on boxing in 2008 with the gravy train that is.

There's really no need for Mayweather to go to the media as much his counterpart does. Less talk, more action. Stop saying you agree to testing and starting moving the pen on the contract. If the media doesn't comprehend that, that's their problem... if you know boxing, then shoulder roll the media.

But the investment group says they are (but of course Arum told them to lie):

Rucker said the face to face meeting of Agent Koncz and Mayweather "broke the ice."

According to Rucker, one condition of making the big fight would be for Pacquiao to drop his defamation lawsuit against Mayweather. Rucker said that was discussed.

"Floyd was very friendly to Koncz, he showed him some Southern hospitality in that meeting. They spoke while Floyd was wearing his trunks and gloves but he was extremely friendly to Koncz and a guy named Cesar, a Filipino guy who came to the gym with Koncz.

Clearly a bold-faced lie, they never discussed anything... it was just a photo op to fool the public. Stop lying Arum... I mean Rucker.

"I've got a call in to Al Haymon now and I am waiting to hear back from him," Rucker told me in a telephone interview. "We're ready with money for both fighters. We're giving money to Floyd first and then to Manny.

More lies



Everyone knows in order to make a deal with Floyd, first you have to contact Ben Thompson over at floydhype. Nobody called Haymon because Al doesn't have a phone, this is scientific fact. And more b.s. stories about money and trying to pay Floyd. Stop lying imaginary person!

Talking is not negotiating, negotiations involve the people that you know negotiate for you~ it is the same bullshit either they are serious or not, if they are serious they need to sit down and work it out with Floyd's people which hasn't happened in two years~

Believe whatever you want to believe not my problem if you are a sucker or not~, they would all have to sit down and work it out Arum was the one that said Ellerbe and Haymon need not be involved~ but in any sit-down those two are the key figures on Floyd's side

If you have real credibility you can get in touch with Haymon especially a concert promoter because~ you do know where Haymon made his bread first the MUSIC INDUSTRY, so if these dudes are for real Haymon would know first hand and he would still do his own due diligence.

Plus you see Haymon's right hand man at tons of fight that dude or his sons who also work for Haymon are not hard to find, just because Haymon doesn't talk publicly about business doesn't mean he is a hard man to find if you want to really talk business~

at these grown men.

Now "breaking the ice" = negotiations are taking place...........at a boxing gym.

I quit, I give up. There is just no use anymore.

[ThePrince]

wow slow down deluded guy.... lol You're all over the place...

Don't act surprised, EVERYONE knew if the fight is going to happen, the lawsuit would be dropped... You silly silly silly silly goose you.... At least show you have some business sense..

Bob will drop the lawsuit if he is seriously working with the investors who require the irrelevant lawsuit to be dropped. If Bob doesn't, we all know why.

What? The only reason Bob would drop the lawsuit would be if Floyd signs a contract saying he would be legally bound to fight Manny if that were to happen. If Pac were to drop the lawsuit with an empty promise from Floyd that he'd jump in the ring after he did, then Floyd would say 'thanks bai' and be out on another vacation or take on the Mexican he has been planning on all along on cinco de mayo.

It would be absolutely ******ed for them to drop the lawsuit based on empty words from Floyd. If Floyd signs legal documents that say he will fight on condition that the case is dropped, then obviously that would be a go. Arum says this is doable, Rucker says both sides have discussed this condition and they are waiting on Haymon to get back to them so they can throw money at Floyd.

Floyd says no negotiations happened and he's not going to talk to anyone until the case is dropped.

Go figure.

[WESS]

No they don't you clown. Obviously that's a request coming from Floyd's camp from the negotiations they've had, Rucker said it was discussed in the meeting at Floyd's gym. But oops, negotiations never happened (god damn, is it 2010 again... damn deloreans). So you think the investment group gives a **** about Floyd's trials? Obviously the only reason it would be dropped would be in exchange for Floyd signing on the dotted line to fight.

But now Floyd is reverting to that 'it never happened' line from last year. Another vacation and 'if you the best, drop the lawsuit' t-shirts and we'll be doing this again late next year, hoping the fight happens in 2013

Once again, calm down deluded one...

Let's assume there are negotiations going on... Bob demanded that it be done without the media involved... Or are we just going to say that is a lie so it makes Floyd look bad because he is saying nothing is taking place to..... get this..... the media?

You silly silly silly silly goose you. At the end of the day, the lawsuit will be dropped if Bob REALLY wants the fight. Don't act like you didn't know that. lol

Apparently negotiations to make the biggest fight in history take place in a boxing gym. A freaking boxing gym.

Yeah, you should probably do that. You can start stitching up those 'if you the best, drop the lawsuit' t-shirts for Floyd. There's gonna be a big market for them come next vacation.
