when has an irish fighter ever sold out MSG? never. john duddy vs yory boy campas did 3000. what
a success....

John Duddy did pretty well with Bonsante and almost sold out the Theater.

Six months later, on St. Patrick’s Day Eve 2007, John fought at The Theatre again; this time against Anthony Bonsante. NYSAC records show a total attendance of 4,955. Irish Ropes reported that 4,471 of that was “paid.” The “gross receipts of ticket sales” reported by Irish Ropes to the commission was $558,505.

I could see it happening if Sergio and Floyd both win. That would be a tough fight for Floyd but I'd like to see it. At least Sergio recognizes who the real test is and who the better fighter is. He knows all too well, like the rest of the world is learning, that Arum is full of **** and Pac would lose to any REAL elite fighters.

[WESS]

Ohh...excuse me! i thought it was "40 million for pac, and Floyd keeps all PPv's" "No 50-50"

I feel sad for you..Always l!cking Floyd's a$$.

Your post has nothing to do with what I posed. I assume you replied in error. You're welcome.

poor martinez...he's been chasing for a big money fight but nobody believes in him...

i just hope chicken floyd will give him a beating cuz no way he can beat pacquiao...

[QADASHBANYAH]

In short, what Sergio is saying is: I want to be like Pacquiao, because he follows Bob Arum's orders. Mayweather gives the orders, I will follow Mayweather's order. So, in short I just want to be like Pacquiao. I want Mayweather to order me. Because Mayweather is just like greedy old Bob, he like to suck all the Money, and give the other fighter only the scraps with NO PPV.

LMAO, MAN GO SIT IN A GODDAMN CORNER LOL....

HE MEANT WHAT HE STATED. IF YOU aint gonna be weight drained or handicapped in some way, PAC (UNDER ARUMS RULE) aint gonna fight you plain and simple. Tim is gonna whoop his ass, just watch and see.....

Pacquiao needs to retire with his lame 1 dimensional ass.....

you do know that floyd demanded 10 million to fight 140 pound cotto when he only received 10 million to fight hoya right?? bruseles was a bum. you have to have a story when you fight a bum. hbo went with the hey this guy sucks but he's from puerto rico so let's see how he does so we can hype a floyd/cotto fight. i think someone even said he was considered better than cotto even though he lost multiple times already against nobodies. do you believe that as well?

where was i? january was a slow month. sorry for not checking in with you. i did say the stadium was a ******ed idea. arum looked like he didn't want to make the fight but then he talked to manny and manny told him to make it but floyd ducked again.

nobody wanted pac to fight cotto again at 147, 150, or 154 because cotto is nearly finished and we already saw that fight. are you actually complaining that we aren't seeing a ****** fight? bradley-pac is a lot better and floyd-cotto is just too late to matter. it's like pac-mosley. no one should care. fight martinez at 154 or pac at 147 otherwise stay fake retired.

floyd didn't demand 10 million--he asked for it--to fight cotto and hatton----and what was wrong with that---arum had no intentions of putting cotto in there with floyd anyway, under any circumstances--he would have told you this-lol

brusselles was a tune up---cotto was his lead sparring partner for the bout---cotto never once asked to fight floyd after watching him fight bruselles and gatti---arum will tell you this also---up until 2007 when cotto gave interviews about fighting floyd at 147---and even then, he said it's no problem if they didn't fight--it was always up to bob---

regarding manny, bob did bs with the date--fisrt wanting may 5th, then not wanting it when floyd could fight on that day---floyd took the 50/50 deal off of the table before he fought shane--what is new about this---manny agreed to a lower %---what now? where were you then? floyd realzied doing busniess with arum wasn't healthy, so he left him--he was willing to throw margarito at floyd for 8 million when it was tata baldomir who had the name and the momentum and he was the undisputed champion--meanwhile, tony, who may have been cheating all of those years, was too busy picking on cintron and losing to williams---if manny makes arum pay him at least 10 million, then why wasn't okay for floyd to ask for it for 2 fights that would have been huge at the time---many people wanted to see him fight hatton--it could have happened in the uk also--huge huge fight--especially after gatti--eben though floyd's name wasn't as big as oscar's yet, seeing how he had this bad guy image--and of course he fought sharmba mitchell next, which didn't sell out, but in 2006, he did good numbers with judah, another bad guy in the sport, and this was judah coming off of a lost---the fight with cotto and hatton could have done big numbers, but arum didn't want to take the risk, just like he's doing with manny, which is why sergio is calling him a puppet--

of course the fighter has the final say, but then again, arum is a poerful man and manny seems like he's easily influenced into doing what bob suggests for him---bob arum is a liar---he has admitted this---

this fight fallout between manny and floyd has never been floyd's fault---floyd is a money hungry whore---even i know this-lol

but it was big of him to okay a 50/50 split in 2009 to fight manny--and early 2010 for that matter--manny didn't agree to the drug testing protocol, so he opted out of it--fishy and suspect to say the least to fight a jushua clottey instead--who just came off of a loss---

arum nor manny want to fight floyd and never wanted to fight floyd--diasgree all you want, the truth will come out soon enough and the media will have no choice but to show it to people like you---

i believe floyd will fight sergio and he will beat him soundly, but sergio needs to stay active and get his name up there more---
