Comments Thread For: Roach: Floyd Mayweather is Scared, No November Fight

[hitking]

You would think Team Pacquaio would be smart enough to realize that the majority of the world is no longer buying the Mayweather is scared of Pac nonsense. But as long as you have legions of ******s willing to believe and scream it from the high mountains, why not run with it.

Pac has fought more fights, so in total yes he has sold more fights, partly becausr he eoulf only fight on pinoy power until he became a star, Floyd has been on HBO almost his entire career and on PPV undercards. But when you figure in thier last 5 fights. Floyd has generated 6.69 ppv buys to Pacs 5.84. But Manny opened his big mouth about taking a lesser cut. This is a business, neither fighter is scared, only Arum is scared

Don't get me wrong, FLOYD SELLS too. Since Oscar mind you. Was Oscar in the last five? Because that ppv was huge for floyd.

However 50/50 is fair in my eyes.

If floyd really wants to fight on may 5th for the extended break from jail, I think 50/50 is a fair deal.

I agree manny and floyd are boxers who know they are fearless once in the ring, but boxing politics suck.

Team Floyd and Team Manny are once again acting like Queens and making Excuses on who is to Blame for all the Delaying. We all know that Floyd is a great Fighter however Mayweathers Demands always seem to be the issue on why the fight cannot Happen .Mayweather needs to realize that Manny will also make Floyd the Most Money he has ever made and will need to Compromise his Demands to reach an agreement. But on the Flip Side, no pun intended, Manny is becoming an egomanic and has bought into His own hype, moreso than his Fans. Manny is Crazy enough to Think he Might be President and sadly the People of the Phillipines may be Crazy enough to Elect Him. If PacMan Really wants to Beat Floyd he will have to quit his Political Dreams and go back to Boxing, because his Political Career will only go as Far as his Boxing Accomplishments. Beating Mayweather will get the Presidency, Not Fighting Mayweather will keep him in Office till he retires from Boxing. At This Point Both Manny and Floyd should just pull a Klitchsko and say they will never fight eachother and get it over with. Besides im getting Hand Cramps from the Two Years of posting of the Subject.

See that's the whole problem here. It's all about Floyd and his demands. The word compromize doesn't exist in his life.

could you imagine if Ali did not challenge himself and fight frazier,

foreman, norton, patterson and liston among other fantastic fights?

people need to look at floyd at how not only has he suffered to be the best

for himself but look at all he could have given us fans as far as great fights..

floyd is pricing himself out, plain and simple...this isnt zab judah, its PAC,

pac is a huge money maker of consistent ppv's. he has a world fan base, not

an american ghetto fan base

Pac struggled with bums lately, while Floyd put his life on the line against live opponents and dominated...Pac deserves less...Floyd is undefeated, yet he been taking risk...he deserves more souly based on that...55-45

With the recent ruse done by floyd, yes it bolstered more floyd is scared facing his idol and getting beat.

Floyd has no confidence in himself even if almost everyone thinks he can beat Pac but what can we do, even floyd doubts it despite all what he says.

boxings most over-rated trainer is not even making sense...sacred& afraid!...more like finally realizes how Pac will exposed & the serious beating he will take...hope NBC keeps him off their next boxing program...the main event was a sleeper & between Roach & Flores, I turned it off after the 6th...

You cant think like a fight fan. You have to think about the business end. You have to show a little empathy and try and put yourself in their shoes. Arum, Shafer, Floyd, and Haymon have made a lot of money by sticking to their guns and playing hardball.

If I was Floyd id be thinking this guys making 6 to 7 mil per fight an im making 40 to 50 mil. What makes him entitled to 50/50 when hes never made anything close to that. So what you do is you offer him 30 mil and hope that hes gratefull enough to take it. Its not 50/50 but its still more than he can get fighting anybody else out there. Hate Floyd or love him you gotta admit its a brilliant strategy.

What is this, Moronville?

All these Mayflower supporters!? You boys want to know who's the coward?
Take a look at their fighting styles: Pacquoai comes right at ya; Mayweather
runs for 11.5 rounds. Gimme a break. Mayweather knows that Pac wil come and come and come; and if he catches him with a shot...well, Pac will just
eat him up. Mayflower's nightmare, and there's noway on god's green earth
that he wants to face that!

When will you lot realise this fight is never happening?
