Comments Thread For: Mayweather Explains Why 'He Can't' Give Pacquiao 50-50

[The Big Dunn]

All of what JR said was total arrogant BULL****

My question that has never been answered about JR is :

WHO has he fought in the past 8 years especially in the Welter Weight division that gives him the clout and authority to say such things ?

The answer is NOBODY !!!!!!!

Just because he is undefeated ??? Chavez Jr has a better RECORD !!!!!!

IF he had fought the elite WW fighters back in 2007 and 8 he may not be undefeated today.

HE has refused to fight and gone on a fake retirement.

Sure he is smart, LOL , he knows the "ONLY" reason some watch him is to see him get KO'd,,LOL

Where he has many in his pocket is that he ducks and goes on retirement and comes back after the elites have beat each other to death and declares to his followers,,,,I'M BACK and the KING !!!!!!!!

I NOW GET ALL THE MONEY !!!!!!!!

ITs insufferable arrogance

Shane, ODH, Cotto, Kosta and Manny all had a chance to fight floyd when they were prime and all refused for whatever reasons. Yet its floyd fault, even though floyd was not a big draw at the time.

SO its floyd's fault when he's the moneymaker and his fault when he isn't.If you say so.

What this basically sounds like is they way Oscar used to handle money vs his opponents. Thats the biggest reason why we never got De La Hoya vs Trinidad 2, it was the money. Floyd is doing what Oscar did in their "World Awaits" to Manny. I get that some people are just saying Manny just take it and how some people are saying that's not a fair shake.
I wish I do one big fight and take care of my financial needs.

This is a good thing.. Now at least it is revealed who the true culprit of this fight not happening is. Not too many people are going to side with Floyd on this. You got to be a true ***** to defend floyd and by the looks of this thread it is nice to know that not all *****s are dumb enough to come in here and defend this, only less than a handful. I ain't paying for another mayweather fight ever unless it is against the man he fears.

FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR IS A COWARD! It's that simple...

Pacquiao has bend to every Mayweather previous demands...
But his new demand is impossible to meet!

Highest Paid Athlete from FORBES:

In 2011: Pacquiao is No. 25..... Mayweather out from Top 50.
In 2010: Pacquiao is No. 24..... Mayweather out as he didn't have a fight.

If Mayweather can provide evidence that he generate more profit (live gates & PPV) than Pacquiao in the last 3 years... then he has a claim!

OSCAR DE LA HOYA HIGHEST GUARANTEE WAS $33M...

Is Mayweather going to get a Guarantee of $50M by fighting opponent not Named Manny Pacquiao???? Certainly NOT... Not even $40M


Floyd, please do us a favor! Just go away!

I AM CALLING TO ALL THE BOXING FANS... PLEASE BOYCOTT MAYWEATHER FIGHT AGAINST COTTO & HIS FUTURE FIGHTS UNTIL HE FACES PACQUIAO!!!
This guy has no gratitude... He wouldn't be were he is at right now if not for the boxing fans!

Fair and objective reasons.

[D4thincarnation]

but I come first...self preservation

In Floyd's own words.

He fear the beating he will take should he fight Pacquiao.

As long as Pacquiao is fighting Floyd will always come up with an excuse not to make the fight happen.

No matter what Pacquiao has done to try and make the fight, no matter what he could have done, Floyd will always try and wriggle out of the fight.

This will be Floyd's legacy in boxing, the guy who did everything possible to duck Pacquiao and stopped the biggest fight on this era.

[switchsouthpaw]

Lolol@ "I can't afford to give up that split"....dear god man. :/

[Pinoy4ever]

So asking for a OST test for both fighters and being greedy is ducking, but refusing to take the test and being greedy is wanting the fight?

[QADASHBANYAH]

Goddamn he is an idiot. He doesn't want it any more than Pac.

Have you lost your mind? Here it is your deal is structured where you make literally millions because you keep payperview monies, and keep in mind all of this is a testament to Floyd. He is a PROMOTER/FIGHTER.

I have been screaming and explaining this shat all week. I have broken this down so many times, yet I dont even know Floyd, but I know business. I have my own business as well, and the shat yall talking about simply makes no sense. PACQUIAO HASNT EVEN AVERAGED 20 MILLION PER FIGHT IN HIS LAST 4 FIGHTS, AND HERE IT IS DOUBLED FOR HIM. If he wants to retire, **** him let him retire plain and simple. A man with retirement on his mind aint ready for the performance of his lifetime anyway.... \People getting ready to retire aint focused... and yall think hes gonna last with Floyd anyway???? lmao!!! Look how even Roach keeps harping about pacquiao lacking that desire and hunger.

He (FLOYD) puts his own cash upfront to secure this shat. So this is what he makes. To put into perspective say you guys are at work and your boss comes and states, he needs to hire someone else to fulfill a huge quota. You say okay no problem... He then proceeds to inform you that you make x amount of dollars.... He then tells you that he is gonna cut your pay in half (50/50) for say a month to pay for this guy. But afterwards your pay will resume to where it was.

YOU GUYS KNOW GODDAMN WELL YOU WOULD BE HOLLERING AND SCREAMING UNETHICAL ETC. YOU WOULD BE DIALING HR SO GODDAMN FAST WITH FOAM DRIPPING FROM YOUR MOUTHS!!!!

The fans want Floyd to fight for them.. Floyd says fine.

The fans want to tell Floyd that we know you are use to making this, but for the sake of boxing short change yourself millions of dollars to give to another fighter so you can prove you are the best even though the odds are in FLOYDS FAVOR STYLISTICALLY, AND FLOYD IS UNDEFEATED..

THAT SIMPLY DOESNT MAKE BUSINESS SENSE AT ALL.

Would you hypothetically speaking have put the work in to be a lawyer and you make 100 dollars an hour. Would you be willing to have your pay cut in half because me (the owner of the law firm) wants another lawyer on staff, but I dont wanna ensure hes getting paid from my pockets. so I just cut your pay for a little while to pay him. Any real lawyer worth his salt would be like thats bulls@t and ready to sue.

YALL KILL THAT ****... MOST OF YALL DONT EVEN BUY THE GODDAMN FIGHTS YALL STREAM EM, SO YALL WANT FLOYD TO TAKE X2 HITS.

1.) FIGHT FOR LESS MONEY EVEN THOUGH HE INVESTS MONEY.. (Only a debt ridden thieving orc would do/request such a thing always looking for a handout/freebie, goddamn 99%ers)

2.) You guys THEN STREAM HIS SHAT. If you like the boxing match/card buy the fight. you dont agree with the matchup dont buy it, but dont criticize a fighter for not fighting in a fight you wanna see only to stream the sh@t.
