    You're crazy if you think that. Floyd has shown before he cares how much his opponents make compared to him. He's at a point where his name alone (win or lose) on his opponents resume is a bargaining chip so he's able to negotiate low pay days for opponents. Look at Guerrero and Maidana. I believe Maidana made 1.5 mil in the first fight while Floyd took home over 30 (If I recall correctly).


    So you're saying Floyd said to haymon "give chino 1.5mil"



    And Guerrero got 3, maidana 1.5 mil no including Argentinian money

      That's not what the article said. And besides, it's Ariza talking. You know what? I'm done with you peasant. You're dismissed.

        i dont think any of us have witnessed as many balatant ducks before haymon came into power

        seems like all his fighters are ducking religiously, ariza might be right about fighters running to haymon and suing arum, haymon seems good for the fighters, but he's been horrible for boxing, so far anyway

        when fights need to be done i can't think of an occasion where arum blocked it, even the first negotiations with pacquiao and mayweather, who was present in the background? al haymon

            No, he ended up getting a sizable portion of the PPV -- which he wouldn't have gotten with Arum. No matter how you slice it, it turned out to be a great career move.

              My point is other opponents are willing to accept a low payday in order to get Floyd in the ring. Honestly, after the 'Argentinian money' was added to the 1.5 mil how much total do you think he made? I bet it wasn't anywhere close to 30 mil. Haymon will negotiate a deal to his clients favor, that's what he gets paid to do. Floyd has offers from left and right and he accepts the one that's the lowest risk for the highest income but only for himself.

                  No, when Mayweather wanted to fight Oscar, he said he could only offer Floyd $10m for that fight and that the $20m Mayweather wanted just wasn't "in the cards." Of course, the fight was made without him and Mayweather pocketed $25m. When it was announced that Mayweather was exercising his out clause to make the fight, Arum said that he didn't have an interest in making that fight anyway because it wouldn't have made him (meaning himself) any money. Makes sense why he offered Mayweather only $10m. Now we have a rumor that he got a $120m deal from the Venetian and owes them four more fights. I wonder just how much Manny is getting from that. History repeating itself.
                  Theres also a rumor going around that floyd failed three tests and usada swept it under the rug... Do you believe that rumor as much as you believe the rumor about arum and venetian?
