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

[pac2]

The fight didn't happen because of Arum i can pull up where they said even if he did accept 50/50 they still weren't going to fight May 5th so what was the point they weren't gonna fight May 5th regardless they don't want it. I can pull that up as well. Then they went on about some stadium being built anybody heard about that lately yeah me neither.

Mayweather offered Pacquiao 40 million the most he's made by far Pac is a 7-10 million dollar fighter Mayweather wants Arum out of the Picture Mayweather made 40 mill with ortiz he's maid that type of money before usually 30-40 million a fight .

Now you have to deal with Arum and his cheating ways lets say they offered Mayweather 50 million with ppv after taxes for the richest fight in boxing history he might walk away with 45-50 million after taxes dealing with Arum with is a lot of money but without Arum

Without Arum if the fight grosses 300 million and he gives Pac 40 million the most he's ever made After taxes Mayweather can walk away with about 140 million. Mayweather is gonna make more than Pac either way you look at it cause if it's with Arum Arum get's his 27% then konz, roach, ariza, etc

Mayweather doesn't have Arum taking any of his money but all of that doesn't matter because Arum said he wasn't gonna fight May 5th if Mayweather accepted 50/50 and he has to get a stadium built so the math of who will make what doesn't even matter.

Come on Pacquiao you only make $7.5m a fight, Mayweather gives you $40m and you say you want 50-50 are you crazy?

These journalists should ask this guy real probing questions. Ask Pacquiao why he thinks he deserves 50-50 when he never makes as much as Mayweather?

Mayweather gives nobady anything. Mayweather is "giving" Pacquiao $40 mill the same way that a fox gives a chicken freedom by opening the chicken-coop door. The fact that he counter offered with $50 mill and 55-45 to winner and loser should show you that he expects to make much more, and not only that. You don't seem to criticize Mayweather turning down MannyP's $50 mill and 55-45% offer.......I wonder why not???/??? It was a super offer. His biggest potential grab ever.

YOU GUYS ALL SEEM TO HAVE FORGOTTEN that last year Keith Kizer, the NSAC Head, said thathe laid the balme for the fight not happening "fully across the shoulders of Floyd Mayweather Jnior"....his very words. And he knows.

You guys have such short memories....when its' convenient.

So you're basically saying Mayweather is a greedy little pig. And that Pacquiao should just go along with it. And I suppose you're still wondering why the fight isn't happening.

Go grab a brain before you post another one.

[TOBYLEE1]

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.

Marquez was paid $560,000 and accepted to fight

[AFighter4U]

run for governor where ??? You are talking about a guy that couldn't win for congress in his home town of general santos,had to go to another province where there was no legitimate candidate to run against him thats how he got into congress,try reading sometime...

No legitimate candidate?!?!

I suggest you read a little more before commenting on something you obviously know little about. Manny ran against the chiongbians, a political dynasty of the area who ruled the province for decades.

[TOBYLEE1]

It looks like the fight is only happening if Pac breaks away from Arum.

Not only negotiations will be better but Pac will make the most money he has ever done and not having pay Arum all his fees

[al-Xander]

If Pac retires after Bradley, Floyd will be doomed to a life of ridicule.

Frankly, there's no more left for Pac to prove. Most of his opponents nowadays just fight to survive. They're happy just being able to survive the distance. I saw Margs heaving a sigh of relief and signing the cross when the fight was over. Clottey didn't fight. Mosley wanted to stop the fight. Marquez was fighting backwards as if he was the champ and defending his belt. He completely forgot he's the challenger. Of course, Pac was forced to do something to entertain the crowd, which was a disadvantaged position to be at. Even then he managed to win a razor thin victory.

[Calabis]

Pathetic brainless twit.

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

[lacson]

Marquez was paid $560,000 and accepted to fight

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.

[pac2]

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.
