Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather-Marcos Maidana II: The Right Choice

[Risen]

And we're somehow at Manny?

How about the fact everybody is busy?

Canelo is fighting this month.... how you gonna fight, then have another training camp and press tour right away?

Cotto is obligated to fight Rubio, they don't even have that worked out yet.

Porter has a mandatory that has been put off for like 2 years over 2 different champions.

Khan already said he can't fight in the fall... he didn't spring this out of nowhere

Thurman... yea he could fight Thurman... good luck with that on PPV though. Just like Abregu for Pac... expect Mayweather is the one with the big money deal with the network, so he's under more pressure to produce.

Mayweather can fight Thurman soon. All Thurman has to do is beat Andre Berto or Victor Ortiz. Pacquiao isn't qualified to fight Mayweather yet, because he didn't beat Berto or Ortiz either.

I was responding to "Between having to keep up his Duck of Manny..." That's how we got to Manny. Maidana was the best choice for September because he earned a rematch. After Maidana, win or lose, Floyd has plemty of options. Even Maidana I was the highest PPV of 2014 thus far. The future is still very bright!

Nice little Diatribe.

You are a Clown, and seem firmly invested in The Mayweather Roadshow.

Keep it up Big Dawg!

Most definitely. The man is 37. The roadshow is almost over. I will definitely enjoy it until the end. So who is Manny fighting again?

We won't know until after Mayweather announces his next farce of an event, to confirm he didn't call Manny's 24/7 toll-free hotline.

Pacquiao isn't qualified to fight Mayweather because his cuts are still not healed, and that outdoor stadium in Vegas still isn't built yet.

On rewatch I couldn't give the first fight to Floyd. No way. I generously gave him 4 rounds. Sitting on the ropes and letting Maidana tee-off (hit or miss) loses him the round. The fight should've been for Maidana or at least a draw.

I don't expect Floyd to make the same mistakes.

He already called him up and offered him $40 million dollars, Don't you remember? Don't you remember Arum saying Manny couldn't fight because of cuts, and an outdoor stadium couldn't be built? That was just the last round of negotiations. Do you remember the first round of negotiations?



This is something that has been known within the boxing community for years. The original fight with Mayweather and Pacquiao was done. They had agreed on revenue splits, weights, venue, who walked out first and etc. I had booked a hotel and flight that is how sure I was it was a done deal

Only one issued remained and that was drug testing. Pacquiao had been knocking out fighters much bigger than him and Mayweather wanted blood testing.

Freddie Roach tells you what happened next.


“I think people will say why didn’t they fight each other, and blame both guys to be honest with you. Because the first negotiation we were against the blood test, and it was kinda our fault that the first time it didn’t work. Then it came to a point where we accepted that later on. I think it’s both guys.”

C'mon guys, the first fight was crap, the rematch will also be crap.

[Pacquiaotard86]

FYI:

"Maidana wanted to wear a pair or gloves that had been approved by the Nevada State Athletic Commission but Mayweather objected. The gloves were considered better gloves for a puncher and Maidana is known for his power. So the sides made a deal for Maidana to change gloves the day before the fight.

Although neither side would disclose the terms of the deal -- or even admit that there was one -- sources with knowledge of the situation told ESPN.com that Mayweather agreed to pay Maidana an additional $1.5 million to change gloves. That doubled Maidana's official purse, which was $1.5 million on his Nevada contract. However, sources told ESPN.com that Maidana was guaranteed $4.2 million and wound up earning at least $5.7 million, including the payment for the gloves change."
