Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao: UAE Group Up Offer To Floyd

[Black As Boxing]

if money was this important to floyd, he would have endorsement deals with athletic equipment companies

Right. It would be like 1 billion/5years deal. Floyd could do it long ago but he doesn't need that money.

dude only walks when he wants to walk, he doesn't like to be forced into situations such as fighting outside his comfort zone, or not having full control of who his opponent is

Exactly.

All that bunch of various people may blab whatever they want... it doesn't matter when we're talking about Floyd Mayweather.

The only thing that really matters is Floyd Mayweather, his words and attitude.

The investment group from Abu Dhabi of the United Arab Emirates has confirmed it’s upped its already record-setting offer to Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Mayweather Promotions to fight Manny Pacquiao during the first half of 2015 to an unprecedented $120 million.

“The media has been speculating the offer has gone up $10 million to a guaranteed $120 million, and they’re right,” said M. Akbar Muhammad [who previously worked with Don King], a long-time boxing executive and one of the principals in the Abu Dhabi-based group, which plans to host the event there during the first half of 2015.

If Espinoza can't make this fight we should doubt that this "(Alah) Akbar" will be able to... Only if Showtime would "spinned it off", which I can't believe happening...

he won't fight him on his own volition. and he calls himself tbe. what a joke.

... Concentrated efforts to force this fight...
... Espinoza, ODH etc trying to lure FMJr into it -- ultimate decoy: "Khan is faster than Pac, doe"... But he ain't, doe... and Floyd knows he isn't. As he knows he isn't a southpaw...

I'd fight King Kong and Godzilla on the same night for that kind of money

[Mike D]

man these UAE dudes just trollin mother**kers at this point

[gritsteel]

Well, as Arum said, they must show the money.

We don't want the "investors" disappearing once Pacman and FLoyd set foot in Abu Dhabi.

Anybody actually believe this shiet? Even if this was a real offer, I just can't see Floyd fighting out of Vegas. He has reasons for that.
