He does not need 50 at all for nothing,even if he was trying to make it in rap he wouldnt run to 50 cent cause 50 cent cant sell his own damn cd's
    50 wasn't trying to sign May. He was trying to get him to become his business partner. Haymon is to Floyd as Arum is to Manny. Same thing... Floyd just promotes himself as his own boss when clearly he takes orders from someone else.

      Old news.

      Everyone already knew Mayweather Promotions doesn't exist and the reason why Mosely said he was "pimping Floyd out" in reference to him always working with Golden Boy.

          Yes Fiddy can be a snake, but at least he's on the ball with Business.

          Floyd starts Mayweather promotions, has a website, co-promotes a show or two.. and that's it. Dude is 30 something now and needs to be business minded.

          The whole snake thing aside, I do respect Fiddy as a businessman... I mean look at him.

            Haymon is not floyds promoter he is his manager,Arum is cheating Manny and Manny even brought people in to look over Rums books and Arum made them leave and those said people ended up suing Manny...so no it is not the same at all.Arum pays Manny...Floyd pays Haymon

                Technically both fighters have a set percentage that that go to both Haymon and Arum. Doesnt matter who's paying who. At the end of the day its money that you have to kick up.

                  It's not hard to imagine. Floyd will never be a promoter without Haymon and GBP when he retires. Al Haymon and GBP, otoh, will have no use for him.

                  50 cent was actually offering an alternative. Floyd just ignored it.

                  We will all see these soon.

                    Floyd should watch this 30 for 30 documentary. It's GREAT.

                      "He just made a decision that doesn't involve logic. On the business side of things, I'm obviously more involved. When he was incarcerated for those 60 days, you saw how things went with the acquisitions of fighters I made. There was a different energy on the business and boxing side of things. Mayweather Promotions doesn't even really exist. Who is even there?
                      Floyd has a system: fight. Get the money. Spend the money. Fight. Get the money. Spend the money. I wanted to develop a company where he could stay in the game after [retirement]. Now, he's right back into a very vulnerable state. What kind of businessmen do you usually get with most fighters?"
                      Damn the truth keeps coming. Floyd is a walking time bomb. At the rate Floyd is spending he will go broke by 2014. His back against the wall, he can't run and be scared anymore. Faced with financial restraints he will risks his precious '0'and that's when he will have to push a fight with Pacquiao. The thing is Pac will retire at the end of 2013..
