Comments Thread For: Roach: Mayweather Needs Pacquiao For PPV, Not Khan

Roach is so full of ****. Manny wins a fight he should have won and now his mouth keeps running and running. smh

Justifying the crazy money Mayweather is supposed to get is one thing, but don't get confused; he can fight anyone and sell PPVs. He could fight Leo Santa Cruz at 154 and sell 700k.

SMH......people will say Floyd is cherry picking when he fights Danny Garcia, even though it's basically the same thing as Floyd fighting Hatton or Pac fighting Bradley. Fighting the top 140 fighter in the world, who deserves to be Top 10 P4P.

He could fight George Zimmerman and probably hit like 800K, LOL

Pac made 18 mil this fight tax free. That's not counting PPV.

If you believe that then you believe anything.
There is a reason why Pac doesn't get those numbers GUARANTEED.
Thats because he ain't making that.

Floyds contract guarantees him those huge pay days he gets.
It's in the paper work filed with the commission.

Manny on the other hand got Bob telling the media that pac is guaranteed 25 million but files a contract with the commission saying 6 million.

The reason......because he can't really guarantee those huge purses.
Now if PPV sells are what Bob really says they are( which they are not) then yes manny may get the 18 million but.............

subtract 33 1/3% for Bob, 10% for Roach, Konz %, and manny is left with what?

Mayweather gets 100% of his money and only pays out flat fees to GB/AL/Trainer/Leonard

Garcia would be my second choice, after Pacquiao.

Having never fought at 147? Unranked at 147? I can think of 8 other boxers at 147 more deserving than Garcia..at least Guerrero had them two fights man. If Floyd didn't have any belts I wouldn't care, I just don't like dudes leap frogging everyone in the top ten who isn't the champ and getting a shot at it.

We're having this discussion because Pac beat a 2nd tier jr welterweight, who was unranked at 147, and had never fought at 147. I would think the undefeated, universally recognized 140 chmp is very deserving.

Amir is a huge PPV star, wtf is Roach talking about?

Garcia has had a few fights at welterweight actually.

I don't know about Khan/Mayweather PPV result.
but Khan/Mayweather will be comically entertaining.
Especially days leading to the fight. I'd really be
curious how Showtime/GBP would market this fight.
As for Canelo, fans were duped into thinking
Canelo would be THE ONE.

But for chinny Khan I don't know how they'll do it.
