Comments Thread For: Photo: Mayweather Slams Pacquiao With Christmas Jab

[Slip Stream]

Whoever thinks turning down 40 Million dollars you have never made before in your life is a sign that you want to fight are utter and complete Jack Asses. Considering Pacquiao was the one who said he would take the lesser share.

You gotta understand many of Pacquiao's fans are as dumb as he is when it comes to finances, which is why they feel like he should demand 50/50 without budging. Okay, sure but is Manny going to tell the IRS he's in negotiations with Floyd and he's waiting for a better offer because he's worth it? Don't know if that's going to get that padlock off the house.

They didn't begin negotiating until Dec. 2009 so that link is a little too old.

Ahaha. Well I misread (the anglon) date format.

Why didn't it get signed then? Did Pac run for office or what made the fight Fall through at that time?

PS sorry for not checking myself. I'm somewhat busy with x-mas prepping.

Analyzing only what you've said:
The bolded sentence is your thesis, yet you didn't support it with anything other than the fact that the fight didn't happen.
You say I can't see through my bias, which also doesn't support your argument, just filler. I referenced x-men cause you act like you know what Arum is thinking. You don't.
You say Manny has a better shot now than he did back in 09-10. And while you're welcome to have that opinion, I disagree. I think Mayweather will land punches regardless because he's just that accurate and prime Pacquiao had the killer instinct and mentality of taking punches to give harder ones. Then you say you never saw a close fight, more filler.
Lastly, you final sentence is just a repetition of the same song.

If you are ignorant to the facts of this discussion, then so be. I thought you had some sense of what has transpired during the first and only set of negotiations for this heralded never to be seen fight. My mistake, it won't happen again. Let's move on, you recognized my thesis, correct? But you are missing facts? A little internet time on your favorite search engine should get you back in the game. As for knowing what Bob Arum thinks, his actions and words should lead you to the light. How about this. I know Bob Arum broke off negotiations with FMJ's team to fight Joshua Clottey and left a 50/50 split with a 14 day cut off window for drug testing on the table. Is that evidence or a fact to my thesis? You tell me. Also, can you tell me why Arum would not want to be a part of the biggest fight in boxing history? Does that question look familiar? You wanted someone to answer it for you, but maybe you can answer it for me. I cannot wait to read your response.

People misunderstand how communication works, how love works, its easy. Humans have a lot of potential for good or ill.

maybe its all god's plan or we are just meant to ruin ourselves and the earth..

They agreed to 50-50 and a litany of other details but Manny wouldn't agree to fully random testing -- he wanted the testing to stop 24 days from the bout at the latest.

In the alternate world known as Delusion, turning down multiple offers means you want the fight and making offers means you're ducking.

This.

As long as Bob Arum and Manny are together there will be no Floyd fight. Furthermore, Manny's stock is down. He's not in the driver's seat anymore.

Damn Floyd its come down to this? At least go on ESPN and talk shyt instead hiding behind a computer screen posting pictures coward.

Coz floyd hasnt found his balls yet. It still lost

Or maybe tucked inside of our DNA there is a solution but we just have to stumble to get there?

But didn't he eventually agree on full OST?
