Comments Thread For: Pacquiao's First Trainer: Mayweather Bout Won't Happen

[Rath]

A guy named G Leon once said fight between Floyd and Pac will not happen. It is not meant to be, he said this when the idea of Floyd fighting Pac was floated and up until now some 5-6 yrs ago his word still rings true

[megas30]

and Floyd would fight in Kenya, Ethiopia, Zaire, Mozambique, Nigeria, and Somalia"peeleft:

Floyd is American, so why would he fight in those countries? Another tool who doesn't know the difference between nationality, ethnicity and race.

Actually it did 400k ppv's which was expected by everyone except maybe arum lol look who he faced and it was In china. The tim Bradley fight did 800k So basically he averaged 600k ppv's in 2014. Who else besides Mayweather brings numbers like that? Nobody. Also I Hope your wrong about Pacquiao getting Vargas, that would be a waste of a fight for sure, I would hope they learned their lesson after Chris Algieri. Then again maybe they don't care if they only do 400k ppv's because of the big site fee from macau, who really knows, alls I know is I think Pacquiao will fight Crawford sometime next year and also mikey Garcia has been told he will get a fight with pacquiao if he moves up. By the way I've already explained this in other posts but Mayweather would be lucky if he got 60/40, due to the fact he doesn't make that much more revenue than Pacquiao does. 55/45 would be fair when you take into consideration the per fight ppv numbers of all 13 of mayweathers ppv fights, and pacquiaos last 13 ppv fights. Mayweather only averages 20 percent more revenue so that would be right around 54/46 split and that is exactly what mayweather deserves. 60/40 is a slap in the face to all the accomplishments of the fighter of the decade/ boxings only 8 division world champ/ boxings only 4 division lineal champ/ boxings 2nd highest grossing ppv star ever.

The only place where 400k is bigger than 900k...Pacland!

Pacland is the only place that the B side dictates to the A side.

Its obvious Bob Arum is using the cinco de Mayo weekend as a bargaining chip because Floyd thinks that he controls everything just because he is the A side. Being the A side against someone who is basically your equal doesn't hold as much weight as say Pacquiao-Algieri or Mayweather-Maidana or even Maweather-Canelo. Cotto is considered A side against Canelo do you think that he should get 90% of the money and in addition Canelo should bow to every other single demand? Obviously not because Cotto only has a little more bargaining power, so it will be close to 50/50 as should Pac Mayweather. The fact of the matter is who can Mayweather fight to be able to keep cinco de Alvarez? Pacquiao is the only one and Mayweather knows this and Arum knows this. Arum is the one making the Cotto Canelo fight happen too. Mayweather needs to be brought down to earth and realize he needs the fight just as much if not more than Pacquiao needs it. For legacy, and also to keep his May date which is more of an inflated ego thing really. Pacquiao can move down to 140 and have a mega fight with Crawford in the spring while Mikey Garcia has a couple fights to work up to 140 and then Pac can have another mega fight with him in the fall. Not only would he gain his ppv crown back, he would probably also gain his number 1 p4p back. Mayweather is retiring and Pacquiao should keep fighting, and that means he will definitely be dominating the ppv market for however long he wants to fight as long as he keeps doing good. Mayweather needs Pacquiao more that's the bottom line, he only has 2 fights left and he doesn't have a many big wins on his resume as Pacquiao does. Pacquiao is the only solution #fightPacquiaoyoucoward

The difference is Mayweather is the number one P4P fighter in the sport and the highest paid athelete in all of sports in the entire world. Pacquiao's PPV numbers of recent aren't even close to Mayweather's (No Matter How Hard Dan Rafael Tries to spin it for Pacquiao). And Mayweather has faced a higher level of competition than Pacquiao has, including Guerrero. And Mayweather is not asking for 90% of the money. He is ignoring the media spin and asking for what he deserves and has earned as the A side and lead promoter of the event

Floyd will never fight anybody he can't beat. That leaves out Thurman, Kell Brooke, Erislandy Lara, Guillermo Rigondeux (can't discriminate lil guys), proly Danny Garcia and of course...., PAC MAN!!!!.. The one and ONLY!

I agree with you on that. The proof is in the pudding. 47-0. Lol. The best ever!
