Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: It's 80-20 That Mayweather Fight Will Happen

[MDPopescu]

The Cotto 2 fight can't be "hyped" by no means anymore, after what's just happening now...
... He could take Khan (before the Ramadan begins...)

It seems that Floyd is on the same page with Arum... Floyd wants to wait until that outdoor stadium is built ROFL:

According to David Mayo, who writes for the Michigan-based MLive news site — which covers Grand Rapids native Mayweather closely — one other factor also points toward 2016 as the likely time frame for the long-awaited Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao superfight.

“There also is a new 20,000-seat arena under construction on Las Vegas Boulevard, expected to be completed by early 2016,” Mayo notes. “It long has been speculated that Mayweather-Pacquiao would be an ideal fit for the new venue, which would seat about 4,000 more for boxing than MGM Grand Garden Arena, where Mayweather has fought exclusively since 2007.”

you may not feel he is ducking, but I promise you, almost everyone else does. Even boxing insiders like dan Rafael have stated that if the fight doesn't happen, it's on Floyd. Dan is an impartial mediator observer, who has no reason to spin the truth

please quit using the rafael name for credibility..he is no insider..just sittin in the dark in an espn basement typing his opinion..spewin hate..not askin for any facts.. u say impartial i say go read anything to do with canelo and tell me where do u see impartial..the man said canelo won 117-111...he picked canelo to beat floyd...there u have it..he waiting for the 0 to go..he's writing for his defamation

[rasdun]

u really think al haymon gone let amir khan fight pac lol...he gone stick it to arum..he knows arum has no options..amir will be on nbc in no time doing multi million views gettin more cash that he can make fightin pac..

Idk. We'll see. Khan once that fight if you can't get Mayweather.

The more Pacquiao talks, the dumber he makes himself look.

" the drug testing isn't a problem. "

Hey Pac, what was the problem the first time? 10 days of testing? How can you explain to your loyal fans and the critics and those who believe you we're taking PED's that the drug testing was a problem the last fight, but not this fight?

" I will take 40 to 60, Im ok with that-for the sake of the fans."

Is this guy off his medication? 40 to 60 would be generosity from Floyd Mayweather. You're not as marketable as you we're several years ago when it was a 50/50 split. You You lost a controversial decision to Bradley who is an average puncher. Then you got KO'd by a guy Mayweather dominated. Then after you took a nap on the canvas you fought bums to give your disgruntled and disappointed fans hope again.

You're taking 40 for the sake of the fans? You're off your nut. No for the sake of the fans you should've agreed with 10 more days of testing. But don't talk crazy as if you're taking 40 % for the fans. You know your value isn't that high right now so you have no choice. In fact, you would have no choice but to take 35 or 30. And if I'm Mayweather that's what you would get.

Your PPV numbers are down significantly. Your fans who support you on these forums and all over the states obviously don't care enough to buy your fights. I'm assuming because they are average boxing fans, don't care, or they noticed the poor level of your competition. Regardless, your value is highly diminished. It's a good thing you fought a couple bums and redeemed yourself against Bradley, an ok but not great fighter. But only the average fan doesn't know what's going on.

Now had you took on Canelo Alvarez or a couple of legit WW's and won, your value would be a lot higher. But you chose to fight a 140 pounder coming off a loss, and another 140 pounder who fought on ESPN Friday Night Fights 2 fights before he got on a big PPV stage to face you. With that level of opposition, any real boxing fan would not get all hyped up about a Mayweather fight. " Hey guys Manny is back! He beat a pillow punching Tim Bradley and a couple 140 pounders. The champ is back! "

The percentage of 80/20 he believes is the chance of the fight getting made is damn near the split he should receive. Why doesn't he just let the negotiations play out and stop running his mouth about a contract that's not even made up. Im not one that believes Mayweather is some saint and everything he does is right. But this guy Manny Pacquiao is so scripted and fake. I can read straight through the guy. He's full of s--t. Now wonder he stuck with Top Rank.

he's not an insider, lol, ok

[Scipio2009]

any evidence of this? the 66/34 point??

pure conjecture, tbh; have no inside information, but the way that things have unfolded, that makes sense to me.

Floyd sets a demand, Moonves comes in and demands that the books get opened up, Mayweather's PPVs are shown to do significantly bigger business than Pacquiao's PPVs, and that reality shapes the position that Moonves negotiates the deal from.

Seriously doubt that the CEO of a media conglomerate like CBS would alow he and his company to be dictated to by a boxing promoter, even if they are country club buddies.
