Comments Thread For: UAE Group Pulls Offer From Mayweather, Rips Him

[DeadLikeMe]

Well not that anyone needed any reassurance, but this thread shows you what fighter has the dumbest fans in the history of sports

[KTFO]

Let me ask you a question.

Which of the two options is more likely to get the fighters/promoters involved the most money?

A. Getting a high guarantee from an outside group with no experience in boxing promoting and watching them eat up the returns on their investment.

B. Bankrolling your own self, doing what you do best, and all of the profit comes back to you and you alone.

Think about it and you'll see why Floyd and Arum dont care for these UAE people.

Well, there's a lot of factors to consider but option B is the way to go if:
1. All the profit does come back to you. I'm assuming you mean an agreed upon split between both team Floyd & team Pac.
2. If projections show you netting a higher amount than the 120 million guarantee. How many PPV's would it take to cover that guarantee? How much does the provider take off the top? How much are the network(s) going to take off the top?
3. Uncle Sam. What's the difference in taxes? I'm not a lawyer so I couldn't tell you.

I would stick to the proven commodity as long as I had a decent chance of netting something close to the guarantee. Still an offer to consider though.

The disdain this UAE group has for Pacquiao is amazing. In their articles, I never read them mention Pacquiao by name, even once. It's all only about Mayweather. Does this mean they just want to work with Floyd, no matter who he fights over there? I always noticed this omission.

What are they offering Pacquiao?

Filipinos go to UAE to work the worst jobs and basically these oil rich countries hold then hostage with these $5,000+ exit visas. Them talking about Manny as an equal would be like an 1840s plantation owner talking about his ****** as equals.

these guys are full of themselves, who cares about you and your damn desert heat, u wish Mayweather was licking your sack and kissin your azz, it doesn't seem like the greatest american athlete alive today even cared to call your desperate azz back, go back to your country and organize what you want nobody cares

It's the same thing as Qatar. The exit visas cost more than the workers could every really afford so they're just stuck there.

It would be an offer to consider maybe if these were people you knew and worked with before.

You dont hand over the biggest fight fight of your career to strangers, no matter how rich they are.

Think about it. This is the fight that will break all the records. Gate, PPV, sponsorships, Casino site fees... Now Im not in those business meetings, I dont know what the projections are, but I know Id roll the dice rather than put a limit on my profits. UAE give a high guarantee but they aint they are looking to make a profit too.

I know about the situation of many overseas expats in many countries, not only the Flipinos, but ignoring Pac completely in this equation is very surprising.

With UAE, Qatar it is the same thing with these BS exit visas. They lure the people badly in need of work there, but then they're forced into what amounts to indentured servitude.

Actually, the head representative and a member of the UAE Group, Akbar M., is an American from New Jersey.
