Comments Thread For: Let's Be Fair To Floyd Mayweather Jr.

[hitking]

Surprising piece by Ronnie, but glad he finally wrote something subjective. People are way too caught up about this supposed contract. Am I the only one who understood the message from TR? From the beginning, I understood it to be Manny agreed in principle. That's generally how fights are negotiated, right? Both sides go back and forth over terms, compromise over terms, one fighter agrees in principle, the other fighter agrees in principle, lawyers write up a long form contract, said fighters sign long form contract. Right? So when team Manny says they agree to all the demands, does that not mean they agreed in principle and are awaiting a response? I get the feeling all it takes is for Floyd to say I agree to the terms, we're fighting on ____ and everyone else falls in line. We still haven't heard that he's agreed to these supposed terms which leads me to believe there are very big issues still on the table. My guess is Mayweather Promotions wants TR to step aside, among other things.

Dude, in the very first negotiations Floyd "agreed" to the terms that he'd put on the table.

If all they were talking about was just principle, why did they keep saying "sign the contract" to Floyd? You guys are hilarious

Because Floyd is the one creating the terms in this fight. He will put all the thing he wants in the contract, then should sign it before giving on Manny's Camp. Manny's Camp will check it, if the contract is the same with the agreed terms between the two parties, then Pacquiao can finally sign. That is why Mayweather needs to sign a contract first before Pacquiao.

I know you're using your "own account." What are your other ones? Can't expect me to take you serious with this.

I think Ronnie's finally fed up with being fed constant lies by Arum and Koncz. He probably feels used that he's perpetuated their BS by writing about it so much over the years. Sad that it took this long for them to figure out.

Yeah he was quite candid. And exposed some stuff that the Pac fanatics on here are going to gloss over. Good for Ronnie.

He cant because what you said is true so he resorts to baseless accusation. Typical Floyd groupie.

Trust me this is my only account. Why create another one?
