Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao: Mayweather Doesn't Want The Fight, I Want It

^reported for spamming

Pacquiao backed out of the May 5 superfight regardless, so this thread is irrelevant. It seems as though he took a shot at Mayweather on his twitter page (even if Ariza typed it for him) so hopefully they can continue going back and forth until they finally man up and one of them calls out for another date, and hopefully this time no one backs out like the first time someone called out a date for the fight to actually happen.

“Contrary to Floyd Mayweather’s comments, Manny never ducked this fight, and I’ve been working on this fight for a substantial amount of time directly with Floyd,” Koncz told ******.

Floyd Mayweather confirmed that he offered Manny Pacquiao $40 million to fight him, saying that it will be the most money the Filipino boxer will ever make in his career.

“We’re talking about a $10-million fighter that I tried to give $40-million to,” Mayweather said of Pacquiao.

But Koncz also refuted this, saying that “Manny is substantially more than a $10-million fighter, and records will prove that.”

Koncz also clarified in a Boxing Scene interview that Team Pacquiao would have been willing to fight on May 5 – Mayweather’s contracted fight date – if all other terms were agreed upon. Pacquiao had already agreed to Mayweather’s previous demands regarding blood and urine testing.

“We were okay with the blood testing every day, except on the day of the fight,” Koncz said

Now go away ***** ALT!

Everybody knows Kentucky Duckweather priced himself OUT!

Naah pac's offer was fair their both equals in PPV and star quality more so Pac for his global presence and prestige.

He even is ranked higher for top athletes of america. Pac is ranked 28 while Floyd is 48 and that is only in Usa Globally he is the most searched boxer on the net. Hasd more accolades etc etc..

50/50 is the fair shake. I call as I see it. Floyd is the greedy one. Pac just wants a fair shake. Just call it as I see it..

The newest one was 45/45 ppv the winner get 10% more and still Floyd didn't accept it. Come on man are you blind.. Who fears who here, its clear as day..

Floyd accepting a cheaper pay day just shows he would rather fight cotto than have a possibility of losing to pac. He doesn't care if he gets less pay day as long as pac is away.. Clear as day.. Don't be blinded by hate. It;s called fairness..

Pac is a big star. He even has more endorsement in the states. 50/50 is a fair shake bro. Reality bites. Floyd is over pricing himself to get of the fight of the century.

actually it's manny that is overpricing himself......we're talking about a 7 or 8 million dollar fighter here......he overpriced himself in the jmm negos and he is trying to do the same here.

he tried to weight drain cotto like he does every other fighter he fights. floyd outsells him in most of their common opponents and fights the better version as well with the exception of marquez. floyd also dominated jmm while poochiao got his ass whipped. coming off a bad fight like that, you are in no position to make any demands to a fighter like floyd.

first off, with regards to the money, how come no one complained when mayweather fought de la hoya? mayweather made 25 mil while de la hoya made 58 mil...and mayweather was the one that won the fight. floyd didnt say **** about that even tho oscar more than doubled his money. he paid his dues and now he wants to be paid. if u wanna take a shot at the king then this is what it costs.

next, for you guys that have comprehension problems, i'm pretty sure the offer that floyd made was 40 mil guaranteed. he never mentioned anything about the back end because the negotiations never went that far and he said as much in an interview. he never offered 40 mil flat, manny probably interpreted it as 40 mil flat because either 1) floyd didnt mention the back end yet so he assumed floyd just meant 40 flat, or 2) english is not his native language so he didnt understand what floyd was saying. also note that it was michael koncz who made a counteroffer which goes to show that manny doesnt know how to negotiate. he has guys that do that for him which is fine but it caused a problem in this situation because he tried to negotiate directly but he didnt know how. if he had floyd on the phone, why would he hang up and get koncz to call back with the counteroffer? it's cuz he doesnt know how to negotiate which is why floyd is richer than him.

another thing, where were you guys criticizing manny for ducking the drug testing before? they went to arbitration and even tho it wasn't ruled in floyd's favour he agreed while manny refused. i have no problem with him refusing it initially but if u agree to go to arbitration then u have to accept the outcome. furthermore, floyd asks that for all his fights so dont say he brought it up to dodge manny. lots of other fighters do as well. case in point maidana asked alexander for it. it only seems like a huge deal cuz manny refused for no good reason. everyone else is like "ok done" cuz its a legit drug test, only manny refused it.

it's easy to say all this stuff after both of you guys signed on to fight and can no longer set a date. why didnt manny say any of this before he signed on to fight bradley? it's easy to talk **** after u realize everything is locked in. it's like the hockey player that waits till the guy's in the penalty box before he goes over and talks smack cuz he knows the other guy cant do anything about it.


for the record, i blame all of this on arum, but manny should not say these things after everything is set in stone. if he really had a problem with it, then say it before, not after. cuz now it looks like he's just mad at floyd for taking his fight with cotto resulting in manny getting less money from his next fight.


also for the guys that say floyd ducks everyone, he's fighting cotto at cotto's weight. arum clearly blocked the fight for 5 years and the proof is in the pudding. as soon as cotto's top rank contract expired, him and floyd reached an agreement to fight within a week - literally. cotto tried to fight with manny, manny said "we'll fight only if u're severely weight drained" (whether it's manny's own request or his handlers are requesting it i dont know), cotto said no and him and floyd got a fight together within a week. bob arum is the problem and i strongly believe that if manny left top rank, his fight with mayweather would be made rather quickly. he would also get a lot more money per fight since top rank wouldnt be taking their cut anymore.

Its called "negotiating". You just dont throw out a date, pick the venue, demand extra testing, dictate what your opponent can make, then accuse him of ducking when he dont bend over for you!

you do when they said they were looking for a may fight then decline when they're given one by claiming he has a cut that will take 5 months to heal. then all of a sudden its ok again but may 5th can't happen because they need to build a stadium [cuz they can't find one in the USA]. but wait, in the first or second round of negotiations manny's camp said the MGM would be fine lol. generally speaking if the person giving you an explanation as to why he can or cant do something doesnt believe it, you shouldn't either.

it doesnt matter if it's top rank making the excuses or not. they're supposed to be working FOR him as he is paying them to represent him. in the end, manny is responsible for his own image. if his promoter is saying things (i.e. the cut) that isnt true, it is manny's responsibility to correct it or clear it up. if he doesnt then it's his own fault that the negotiations failed because it's his own camp putting out false info that he could have easily corrected so dont blame anyone else for it.

and honestly, with all those ****** lies i just outlined above, how you guys can take anything that comes out of his camp seriously is beyond me. if floyd says something he's ducking but if manny's camp says something it's the bible. and if a week later they say something that completely contradicts it, the new info becomes fact.

ridiculous.

Manny needs to know his place at the negotiating table.

It's just that if it's a threat Floyd will go to ducksville

Try pondering on this

Pac is the most searched boxer in the net (globally)

Pac is the fighter of the decade

PAc is the p4p

PAc is ranked 28 in the top athletes of 2012 in the usa while floyd only ranked 48 lol

7 division champ

4 linear champ

more fights under his belt

PAc has more endorsement in the usa than Floyd. Including Nike brands and commercials, HP etc etc..

Telling me that 50/50 ain't fair when pac is even bigger than Floyd in the USA more so than in the world and you still think Floyd should get more than 50/50?

What about 55/45 winner take thew bigger pot still no good for you. HAve no confidence with your boy?

Bro 50/50 is a fair shake. That's all their is to it. If you don't get it just wipe Floyd's divk out of your mouth kiss azz hehe!
