Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Pacquiao Wants Help To Get Out of Debt!

[Slip Stream]

Kind of ironic that after years of saying "we don't need Floyd" and turning down multiple offers, Floyd is pretty much the only person who can save Pacquiao from his own ******ity in the end.

And that isn't going to happen because Manny doesn't appear to have the instinct for self preservation, so he'll tuck his tail between his legs and re-sign with Arum. Stories of fighters that can't manage their lives don't usually end well.

The thing about Floyd-Pac is that I think Floyd beats him if they were to fight. Him acting like a lil biznitch makes me want Pac to whip his ass though.

Although this is getting old, I can't understand why so many blame Floyd ONLY! Just READ a little history:

Take the test! Take the money! Take the fight! NO, NO, NO! And then Manny re-signs with TR before taking the fight? ******! Marquez got that money! Cotto went and got that money, and then went back to TR! Manny could do the same!

I have spoken personally (off the record) to several boxers who at in the hall of fame and some former welterweight champs. ALL of them said Mayweather didn't want to fight Pacquiao . Some felt he was afraid he might loose and wants to protect that no lose record for marketing purposes. Some felt he would win some thought he would loose but they all felt mayweather was the main reason the fight hasn't happened. This issue is only a debate amongst the fans. The fighters no the deal

That "MAY" be true! What "IS A FACT" though is what is in those articles. Dan Rafael is telling the story of when HE personally talked to Bob Arum, and ARUM was making excuse after excuse, NOT Floyd, NOT Manny! By not taking that fight Manny has lost approximately $100 million dollars, and Floyd's career has skyrocketed since he got out of prison. I respect Manny as a Champion, but I don't understand his loyalty to Arum and Koncz. "Men lie, Women lie, Numbers NEVER lie!"

Pac's legacy is intact. He doesn't need Floyd. Let's make this thing clear for the floydiots. Floyd needs Pac. Fans are clamoring for the fight. Idiots keep asking Pac about the fight. What is he supposed to say? As opposed to Floyd tweeting Pac's name and pictures without people asking for it. He's still scared. And he uses Pac's name whenever he's promoting his next fight.

Is it an excuse or incentive ?! Mayweather is a joke indeed !

[M4RK]

Even if this is true, how is it a problem? Like what is may hoping to achieve with this fiction?

Floyd Knows About Getting Help On Debt; Oscar Paid Floyd's Taxes Off

Hence why Oscar co-promotes several of Floyd's fights now to to get paid back the $6m Oscar paid so Floyd's mansions didn't get liens. If Floyd is so big in his promotional company and he's the man, then why would Floyd need GBP to co-promote fights with; that's money out of Floyd's pocket he wouldn't lose if Oscar weren't involved. Funny how Floyd doesn't explain that part of the story and explains why he has such a problem with Arum & Top Rank... That would mean Floyd's Promotional company would take a cut, GBP gets their cut and Top Rank gets their cut. That's three promotional companies all because FLOYD couldn't pay his debts!!!

Ive spoken to many a retired boxer and some current ones in my state and the majority feel May will win, easy. BUT, they also feel he's not letting the fight happen.
