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

[The Big Dunn]

I don't underestimate his power. I go by his ratio and %• I also have to go by his past opponents. Comparing them to manny and so on. Manny is by far on another level. As for Floyds pinching power. In no way is that a threat.

Not the only measure of punching power but I get your point.

Floyd wont one punch KO you, but the accurate punches hurt more than fans think. Watch how his opponents stop throwing certain shots once they;ve been countered a couple times.

Now add up all their PPV numbers.

Its not Manny's fault Floyd doesnt fight twice a year.

Manny has fought 15times in 7 years. Floyd has fought only 7times in 7 years.
I find it funny flood aren't smart enough to think this will be or can be a huge factor.

[SoulByThePound]

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 ****** fan base

translate your american ****** fan base statement

Is it really unfair to demand 50/50 on Pac's behalf?

Pac
- 50/50 split revenue

Floyd
- OST (accepted)
- Venue: MGM Grand (accepted)
- Date: May 5th, 2012 (accepted by pac)
- Defamation suit dropped (koncz confirmed during his visit to floyd's gym)

He's just an insecure Pinoy who lives vicariously through others. And in those comments he reveals his insecurity. He probably got beat up when he was seven. That was a year ago.

[flint]

this sorry ass trainer does'nt know what the hell he's talking about. arum had pacquiao to say the 50-50 **** so the fight would'nt get made. arum knew mayweather was'nt going to fall for that junk. arum does not want the fight. he wants manny to continue fighting guys that they"top rank" know he can beat.

The probnlem is Floyd likely wont accept anything lower than 60%. He dont just want more, he wants alot more.

Floyd also fights once a year if even. Its unfair, he becomes more of a commodity so when he does fight it draws more interest.

Nice post!

I disagree-Floyd has made it known he just won't take a 50/50-Floyd said "I deserve the bigger piece."..With that said, I believe Floyd would take a 51-49 split.

JUST AS PACQUIAO DESERVED A SLIGHTLY BIGGER PURSE VS HATTON (52-48 FOR PAC IN THE END)..Floyd deserves a slightly bigger split here-More like 51-49..

IMO, there is enough money on the table for a 50/50...but as it stands, Manny messed up n said he'd take less, n Floyd is the bigger PPV draw based on AVG numbers.

As far as the buys go and the amount of times they fight-I think the #'s would be the same no matter if it's 1 or 2 times...

Floyd fought JMM and Mosley within a 8 month period and Floyd's buys only went up...There was not very much to sell on the JMM-Mayweather fight too other than "he's back"

[thatman22]

Manny has fought 15times in 7 years. Floyd has fought only 7times in 7 years.

Explain "Pacquiao fan" (a Pac fan who watches the entire sport but prefers Pacquiao) and what seems like to me, to be a "*******" (a Pacquiao fan who only watches Pacquiao and what goes on around him in the sport)-

I really would like to hear you make an argument, that "because Pac fights more than Floyd, then he deserves this much more based on true and accurate sources."

I would also like to hear, in that same argument, that THE FACT that Floyd AVG more PPV buys since fighting Oscar (common factor, and turning point in both men's career's), means nothing (0) in negotiations....Please explain both? If you need the PPV #'s I have posted them many times.

Floyd avg. 1,405,000
Pac avg 1,135,000
MEN LIE, WOMEN LIE, NUMBERS DON'T LIE BUDDY.
Note-I am not arguing that they don't deserve 50/50 as I believe there is enough money on the table, for a 50/50. I'm arguing your stance, that you've posted in other posts, and seem to be referencing in this one, that Pac deserves a 60/40 split

I won't argue that. My only point was the difference in opponent. It seriously not me being a fan of pacquiao or hate of Floyd. This is a different animal for Floyd. Floyd's gonna have to fight it out. He had his way before style wise

Best ARM PUNCHER in history of Boxing,
especially when his Opponent (Ortiz), Cooperates!!!
