Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Mayweather Didn't Want This, He Was Forced

[jbpanama]

Does the same apply to pacquiao too. After losing to marquez the best available was chris algieri?

Hey Man, Chris had just Beat Provo,
and it could be that Pac wanted to Fight a Runner...

He's been hopping for 5 years, that the Master Runner,

would Man Up!!!

Who has Pac the Man ever AVOIDED....DUMBO???

JMM made himself unavailable; or Manny would have obliged Him Again...

Jmm made himself unavailable. Really? The same guy who thought he was robbed in the first 3 fights, knocks manny on his ass, and hes the one thats ducking, provide a link for me that says pacquiao wanted a rematch and Marquez refused. Your words and childish insults mean nothing. And if that was the case there is no way that Chris algieri was the next best option outside of mayweather.

"He don't know shhhhhh"

Yet he's the guy who tried negotiating 3 times to make this fight happen..but Oscar doesn't know ****. He may be bitter, he may miss being the man...but he negotiated this fight the first three times. Maybe just maybe he knows what he's talking about. That's not to discount the other side may not have wanted it it too just saying about someone speaking as having worked for one side.

no, he was the guy doing coke and shoving butt plugs up his ass while richard schaefer handled the business. you're giving oscar way too much credit here. and even if he was deeply involved (no pun intended ), you can't expect a promoter, and especially a bitter homer like oscar to keep it objective. they ALWAYS have an agenda - it's the nature of their job.

Who still cares what De La Hoya wants to say?

[aboutfkntime]

forced to have his 120M guaranteed..

Forced to go to the heat game.....

Forced to approach Manny directly.....

Forced to go up to Manny's hotel room....

Forced to sign the contract.....

Forced to accept 120mil.....

In spite of the fact that everybody in the world knows that Mayweather will do/fight whatever/whoever he likes, regardless.

On May 3rd, regardless as to the result..... boxingscene will take a massive hit on their click-counter, because pointless/worthless discussions like this will end forever.

You responded twice to the same post. Lol says a lot about your theory. He dam sure wasn't going to fight anybody that could hit hard. N how many fights did provo have at 147lbs. Ill wait for you to look that up.

Jeez we still on this?? I've never seen anyone hated as much as Floyd. DLH is a sick dude. He's just as bad as the pac "fans" that spew non sense on NSB

Ha ha ha...
It's obvious U weren't around to Hate the Original Golden Boy, Art Aragon...

It sold for Him, and he's a Piker, compared to our Hero, TBE Ha Ha Ha!!!

If anyone in this thread is older than 12 years old, you're all really ****** people and on May 3rd you're still going to be really ****** people.

Floyd can run but he can't hide.

Not really !

In 2009 it was Richard Schaeffer.

In 2010, during the " faked " negotiation..... representatives from 3 completely different companies all categorically denied that any form of official negotiation took place. The finger was pointed to Oscar as to why he had answered reporters that the fight was "close" when in actual fact no negotiation had happened..... to which Oscar replied that he had no idea what was happening, had not had the chance to discuss anything with Schaeffer, and that he answered positively because he just wanted reporters to stop asking questions lol.

I remember that very clearly.

I dont think that Oscar had been hands-on for years by that stage.

Schaeffer ran the company, not Oscar.
