Comments Thread For: Arum: We're Very Open To Mayweather-Pacquiao in '14

[Sugar Adam Ali]

huge difference may has no knockout power... it would have to go all 12 rounds

No *****, the fight itself will be different because its heavys and these guys are welters,,,

I was just talking about the circumstances of the fight, and not how the fight would play out,

the circumstances will be the same, older guys but one still at the top level, and the other is basically just a name,,

And if jmm knocked manny out cold,, i have no doubt that floyd could do the same if he could land a solid hard shot on pac's chin,, Unlikely but it could happen,, floyd has laser like accuracy and hits slightly harder than a juiced jmm

You are wrong and you are right, he's actually earned $34 million bucks for fighting a guy who doesn't really sell ppv's.

which fight was this?

Marquez was juiced?

Ah, looks like Arum is ready to punch Pacquiaos ticket and cash him in. No surprise if the fight gets made and made easily.

which fight was this?

Marquez 4. he earned $28 the fight before that and he earned $26 for Bradley

[turnedup]

That Forbes piece was nothing but an opinion piece lol

and at 50/50 that was in 2009. the 40 million dollar offer didn't come until 2012 when Pac's stock dropped considerably.

Withh eachother the PPV would probably be lucky to get 2.7 million buys.

Between Asia, Europe and U.S. this does close to if not 3 million, yes it was an opinion piece but every financial analyst is giving you an opinion piece..If anything I think the fight not happening in 2009 makes it even bigger now because of all the people who have since picked a side who weren't into boxing before. Dude my wife hates boxing and was in tears over what happened to Mago recently but you bet your life she'll be the one ordering this showdown. That alone itself indicative of how much this fight has seeped into people's conscious all the build up I think makes the numbers even greater than initially thought.

Uhh because he wants the fight and thats what the offer was.

You already showed what kind of fan you are calling $40 mil "chump change" for a fighter who never earned that much and is fighting for $18 mil plus ppv that is expected to make him $10 mil less than that.

When your parents offer you $25 allowance do you turn to them and say "no, thats chump change" and then take the trash out for $20?

You are wrong and you are right, he's actually earned $34 million bucks for fighting a guy who doesn't really sell ppv's.

Huh? when did manny earn $34 mil?

mayweather cant knock out nobody without sucker punching,doubt hes even in the pocket wit pac to even come close,he would definately be on his bike imo....lol

Marquez was juiced?

he didnt test positive, but it doesnt take a rocket scientist to look at his bulked up frame and and new found power

barry bonds, mark mcguire, lance armstrong, roger clemens sammy sosa, gamboa, they never tested positive, but are all known steriod cheats,,

Testing is a joke,, the cheaters always a step ahead

JMM was clearly juiced for manny 4,,, and im a huge jmm fan, but even i can see the obvious

I'm going to disagree. you won't find a bigger boxing fan than myself but I'd be streaming the fight. they don't deserve my money, not after the BS they pulled.

The fight was at its biggest after the cotto bout but since then since Pac has lost no one really wants it.
