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

[-Kev-]

Major companies don't want to sponsor someone with Mayweathers image. Anyone that draws big revenue in boxing isn't forced to fight anyone. Look at Pacquiao cherry picking mismatches that really are embarrassing for a fighter of his magnitude.

Kevin Garnett has endorsement deals. He said Charlie Villanueva looks like a cancer patient, and mocked his rival Tim Duncan telling him "Happy Mother's Day" on mother's day, knowing Tim Duncan's mother had passed away. Among many other antics. And he still has endorsements.

Floyd does what he does, but he actually is against tattoos, earrings, drugs, drinking, has paid past fighters funerals and has donated millions of dollars. Not saying he's a saint, he has said a lot of ****** things but not on the scale of Kevin Garnett.

I don't care if Mr. Sultan Shammar Hawwar Muhammad offers half-a-billion dollars to Floyd for making the fight.


Floyd ain't fighting out of Las Vegas, period.

Wrong! Showtime may have lost money, but Floyds money is guaranteed! He killing Pac pockets. And when it's all said and done Floyd will be better of career wise and money wise. PAC steady getting robbed, while money steady making money!

True.

Mayweather the biggest moneymaker and businessman. But not THE GREATEST EVER in boxing. Far from it.

Get the hell away from the sport and leave it to fighters.

Shh shhhh...no logic allowed in here.

Plus there's the whole, Floyd-still-managed-to-lose-money-on-his-last-fights thing.

What? At the time (2009), some were concerned that Manny would play hardball and want more than 50/50. Remember that Floyd was coming back from retirement, Manny was hot, his numbers were better in their previous fight per fight PPV numbers. Manny was the one who was OK with making it 50/50 split.

So initial issue was NOT about money but thanks for trying to make it sound like it did.

Once Manny accepted Floyd's PEDs roadblock and Floyd said that he would be even willing to take less to make the fight, Floyd thru the "NO PPV Money" roadblock. At this point, even objective Floyd fans blamed Floyd since he had said that his only concern was "TAKE THE TEST AND WE HAVE A FIGHT"


So after several more roadblocks by Floyd, he goes on Showtime and says, I'm going to even offer Manny less than in 2012. So of course, for everyone but you and a very few other Floyd fans don't realize what time it is.

It's not about accepting. It's about the other side, Floyd, making a reasonable offer. You don't seem to care about that. There is the problem.

It's as simple as that but these Floyd groupies don't care. To them Floyd is God and nobody better dare say anything negative about him.
