    He should just cancel, he's either going to cherry pick Guerrero or Alexander.

    Didn't he say it takes 6 months to promote a PPV?

      I have a feeling Floyd isn't getting his way with the Guerrero negotiations and also doesn't want to have to commit to a Canelo fight, so is stalling in the hope of bluffing others to conform to his way.

      It's just a guess though. I hope Guerrero gets his 4m if that's the real hold up and I hope Canelo is on the card with a Floyd fight in September if he beats trout....I just don't hold up much hope

        The May card is all set:


        Floyd vs Guerrero...Guerrero gets a carerr high payday of 3-3.2 mil.

        Canelo vs Trout ...A Canelo win gets him Floyd in September in what will be a bigger fight than Floyd v Manny...A Trout win makes him a superstar with wins over Canelo and Cotto.It also makes him attractive to Floyd as he has no KO power.

        Look for light-hitting Mickey Bay to get some airtime too vs a tomato can.

            The Ghost is a MAJOR doosh, and Jerk! This guy was so rude to Berto after the fight, always uses cancer to win points! Lies about his titles, and claimed he would fight Floyd for free! Now you talking abut 4 mil, I DONT wont him to get that kind of money, I hope he gets dirt, since he claimed he would fight for dirt! And Ortiz is bigger name than Robert, and he got 2.5 I believe! So how the heck does Ghost get 4 mil, is astonishing! He should get 1 mil at the most!

              Because Floyd's hype is all but gone now. That's why he is pulling this stunt to garner attention. The guy really wants to retire now without facing any of the younger, tougher fighters because protecting the 0 is what's most important.

              Floyd might eek out a win over Guerrero but after that, he knows he gets KO'd against Alvarez....same duck and jive move tactics he used when the Pacquiao talks were going on.

                I have that same feeling, I think he in a spot he never been in before, Guerrero is not laying over taking whatever they offering and he has no where else to really go.

                  Floyd "Money" Mayweather doesn't sell without a Hispanic on May 4th, both Floyd and the Ghost know this. Whether he comes away with 30 million or 28 million none of that is possible without the right opponent.

                    Floyd dont NEED a mexican! He fought Shane on May 1st! He just needs an opponent that the public will accept! And btw, none of this has anything to do with my comment! My comment is about Robert being greedy, undeserving jerk, doosh, and claiming he would fight for dirt, but asking for twice as much as Ortiz was paid, when no one knows who the Ghost is!
