Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Shocker: I'll Take Less Money Than Mayweather

[Cassius Liston]

ugh.. no. I don't hate anyone. hate is a strong word and I don't have the time of day to have such bitter feelings invested in another man I don't know.

Pac's last PPV's have made the same, if not more than Floyd's if I'm not mistaken and he's become a household name. You see him on Jimmy Kimmel before every fight.. you see him in Nike commercials and cell phone commercials.

To deny Manny's stardom and popularity is ******.. if he wasn't a name Nike wouldn't of signed him and Champs as well as other sneaker stores wouldn't be selling his shit.

indeed but to be such a superstar he cannot have this fight lingering over his career or him and Floyd will never be great ,do you think Ali would be such an iconic star if he didn't want to fight George Foreman because he was scared to take a needle but Foreman demanded it...

No because we all know Ali would do anything to be the Greatest and he would take the test and anything else because he believes in himself

You people have missed the small print. Top Rank and Pacquaio are only willing to negotiate on these specific terms if Al Haymon and Golden Boy are excluded from the mega fight. Comprende? So they're making it seem as if they want the fight when in fact they don't. I can see Mayweather leaving Golden Boy out. BUT Al Haymon, no way jose. That just shows right there that Pac are literally once again pulling wool over the eyes of those foolish enough to believe, and there are plenty who are falling for the bait.

Come on floyd u got all u want, the test and more money, don't let the *****s down.

Is this another way of Pac telling all his ******* fans that he is the "oh so humble" fighter? Because that's totally relevant in the sport of boxing right? Looking to the ref to stop the fight (because you couldn't KO margarito yourself) "SO HUMBLE SUCH A NICE BOXER!!!"

the fight wont happen, floyd has other tricks on his sleeve.

You're right its just bait and bull... since when has Pac said anything but "I have to talk to my promoter" I doubt he came up with this bait... its just another hype job to have a different fight and stop boxing fans from going on strike so to say because lots of fans have mentioned not watching or at least paying for their fights until they fight each other

w


where are those PPV numbers from the Mosley and Marquez fight, bruh?

and my question is, why is their always a long delay in top rank releasing the ppv numbers for its fights? im still waiting for the pac v mosley numbers.

Is this a joke - these r the types of things great fighters should say - he dont care wat it takes - He wants the fight.

Wow - some people can criticiz someone ovr anything

Seriously, and also to call a professional fighter a coward, especially one who ****s dudes up most of the time when he fights. Some people are just big Time HATERS

This is a "sensational" article that means nothing. Is Manny saying what's his fans want to hear?? Are we expected to believe that Arum will accept anything less that half?? Since day #1 they've tried to put all the blame on Floyd for this fight not getting done. TWO YEARS AGO they were supposedly close to a deal but they (conveniently??) backed out when Floyd insisted that BOTH submit to OST. Now, we've heard plenty of Arum's lies, half truths... on how Manny had agreed to Floyd's demands but without there being an a ounce of truth to his allegations. But Arum is Arum, one of the greatest promoters ever, no doubt. He's doing his job, and part which is to continually PROTECT and POLISH Manny's image the best he can, the SAME way he did it for Floyd and Oscar. Are the REALLY trying to get this fight done. Are they presently doing any SERIOUS negotiating?? hmmmm... I have my doubts.

wow, hope this makes the fight a lil easier to be made with this news.
