Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: My Son Wants Me To Fight Mayweather, Retire

[BuckToothed]

Mayweather turned down $50m guarantee, on 55/45 deal for the winner.

Mayweather wins he walks away with around $90m.

Floyd said no.

It amazes me that Floyd's nuthuggers are overlooking the fact that Floyd turned down a much better deal than what he offered to Pacquiao.

- $50m+PPV% (55/45) > $40m flat-fee
- $200m projected revenue

I want these mathematicians to disprove that expression...

LMAO, coming on here calling people brainless, when you don't know a damn thing about how the business side works....first MP Promotions doesn't do **** for Manny in the sense what MoneyMay Promotions does. Manny does not invest his own cash into the fight....that job is Bob Arum's, which is why he gets 27.5% of Mannys cut and instead of giving Manny a percentage of PPV sales, he just gives Manny a fight guarantee....this is what we call raping Manny, but u'r heads so far up his ass, how would we expect you to see it. Here maybe an exampe will help you...the Mosley fight:

These are the official purses as per the Nevada bout agreements, It does not include sponsor money or other common forms of revenue paid through other streams. Pacquiao's official purse on the Nevada contract is six million, Top Rank has guaranteed Manny twenty million, because of PPV.

Now if Bob gave Manny a actual percentage of the total rvenue from the fight, Manny would be making Floyd like money....like he did with Ortiz...40 million...yes $40 mil.....and if you want to know why, here learn something, it may help you from making an ass of yourself in the future

To all of my fans," Pacquiao announced, "Mayweather just needs to agree to and accept a 50-percent split, and if he does then the fight will go through. He's the one who needs to agree.

[B]"He's the one who has to say yes. The reason is because he talks to a lot of people. He has a lot of representatives. If he takes the fight, he can make $50-$60 million. That's how much he can make."(Sorry Manny but you have no right to this money, its partnerships Floyd has developed long before you)

"I don't have problems getting a guarantee because I have a promoter who will give me my guaranteed purse. If he gets a guarantee, then we are going to share the revenue on a 50-50 basis."

Uhh Floyd was guaranteed $25 million vs Ortiz, Manny wtf are you talking about....are u mad, because Bob Arum is screwing you blind, by low balling your ass with 6 to 7.5 mil fight purse guarantees then just telling you, that you will get $20 mil due to PPV sales....while Floyd is getting 20 to 25 mil dollar guar. fight purses and then racking in another 15-25 mil from the backend.

Maybe you and the rest of the *******s can rehire the company Bob and Kontz convinced Manny to get rid of, since Manny obviously doesn't know where a ton of cash went or is going too

You have no clue. A guarantee is a guarantee. This would include PPV. If PPV ****** you still get your guarantee, who ever guaranteed it gives it to you. If PPV does very well you could very well make more than your guarantee. It's simple stuff.

Pac i like your fights, but top bs-ing everyone please. Arum runs the show and you think what he says is the truth. its a shame you' not independent enough to pull a Cotto or you would be fighting on May 5... you're adviser works for Arum nuff said dude...

[TOBYLEE1]

I guess when someone throws you 560k plus the few millions after the fight, most people would probably still fight.

Does that make it right to not make the contracted weight? Would the result be considered legit? Mayweather fans like to boast how he schooled Marquez, but look at the difference in the shape of the Marquez against Mayweather and the Marquez against Pacquiao. One got fat trying to make weight and the other one was ripped working with that peds guy.

Doesnt make it right but he did accept. IMO Marquez still gave a good account of himself in that fight in an losing effort. His stock didnt go down and he continue to try to win in the fight.

Two counterpunchers in a fight never makes it an action pack event.

[lacson]

So if Mayweather would have said yes to 50/50 then the fight would have happened on May 5th ? Go ahead and say yes so i can expose you they don't want to fight Mayweather period i can pull the article up.

Mayweatherr will make more than 45- 50 million fighting Cotto, and he made 40 mill vs ortiz so he is only suppose to get 5 mil more for the richest fight in boxing history when he makes close to that anyway but the other guy has never made anything close to that now who fault is that it's not Mayweather's fault that Pac is a dumb a** and cant speak up for himself like a man when Arum is around. He can threaten his body guards but acts like a dumb bi*** around an 80 yr old man that he knows is ripping him off Manny fire vision quest even though you hired them because you know im stealing million from you Pacquiao answers yes master continue to take whatever you want.

What kind of bs are you talking about? What does that have to do with Mayweather ducking? Just because he wants to be a greedy little pig, and his fans agree he should be a little greedy pig. Pacquiao should just agree to let him be a little greedy pig?

[GRUSTLER]

Get your facts straight. It was 10 million a pound. The guy came in like 4 pounds over the limit against Marquez, that's to make sure he pays for it if he tried that trick again. Not the flimsy 100 thousand or whatever it was they made Marquez take to continue with the fight.

Grab a brain so you can see past your gushy gullibility for Mayweather. You should be asking him what is it he's so afraid of. The biggest pay day for Mayweather and he's throwing wrenches into the negotiations. I laugh at you fools.

Yeah but Floyd agreed to the 10MIL per penalty and Pac didn't agree to the tests. Obviously Mayweather wasn't afraid of not making the limit. Roach just figured Floyd would not be able to make 147 because of Marquez but he was wrong like when he thought Marquez was done because of the Floyd fight at 144. Can't you guys see that Team Pac are a bunch of frauds? Floyd is an arrogant b!tch ass too on a personal level but to totally dismiss Pac's short comings and holding him in this light as being a saint is for sure being bias. Look how he tried to do Cotto.

If Mayweather agreed to 10 million a pound, I can guarantee you he wasn't afraid of not making weight. If he had any inkling that he would have a hard time making weight, he would have negotiated that down. Or most likely there was never any intention on his part to make that fight. I'm sure he had a list of excuses already lined up to pull out of his hat.

And he's still pulling those excuses out.

[Sugar Q]

Even the biggest Pac nuthuggin sites will admit that Manny is getting screwed BIG TIME by Arum and doesn't even take home 7.5 million per fight and that is a fact so he's in no position to negotiate with Floyd who'll probably make 60-70 million for fighting Cotto. It is an absolute insult for Manny to make any purse suggestion. Now he's under pressure because his son's little friends are calling his dad a coward for not fighting Floyd. Manny has 2 excuses he's using:

1-He's all of a sudden a devout catholic
2-The ridiculous 50/50 split. (Didn't Mr.Religion just say he'll take less)

Don't be foolish *******s, Manny is not in the same league Floyd is in when it comes to their business. Floyd is his own man while Manny is being pimped like a **** hooker.

[LADIV]

pac says that mayweather offered him 40 million and that it was like trying to take advantage of him...what do you think arum is doing to you, you dumb mother f#$@%r
