Comments Thread For: Ariza: Mayweather Was Concerned, Pacquiao Shorted on Money

[SergioMartinez]

Well it's true.

Basically Pacquiao has been getting robbed all along.
Not your typical robbery, such as not getting paid, just not getting paid what your supposed too.

Basically Arum was always taking another extra 10-15 mill off top, and claiming it was for fees or other needs.

The short version of this is Ariza is extremely worried that Manny Pacquiao isn't too greedy enough like floyd or other superstar out there who's too worried about their value. This man is getting his fucckking 20m minimum every fight and he himself stated again and again that he started from a humble beginning at the bottom of the dammnn earth as being a homeless guy who struggled throughout his life before he found boxing.

Is he being shortchanged by Arum probably yeah, I think deep inside he knows that too, but i think the way manny pacquiao thinks is that, Arum has brought him up this far and he's getting enough millions in his pockets (remember the dollar exchange in his country is way bigger so a 10 million is probably 4 or 5x the actual worth over there.)

You see guys, not everyone is supposed to be as greedy as fucckk, some are just willing to take the short end of the stick, as long as they believed they are getting enough for their share it's enough for them. Also, pacquiao probably considers what Arum has done for his career throughout the years, for him that thing is a very big deal, it's a form of currency for him, that sense of gratitude.

Everything you just said is wrong and I'll tell you why. It's not about not being greedy it's about getting paid for worth! This is the same as what women fight for. A man works a position and makes 100k. They promote a woman and she makes 80k after only making 60k before for the same position. Yes she is grateful for the raise and opportunity but she files a suite because of the discrepancy and wins. Was she greedy? No! She just wants to be paid her worth. Just because someone brought you from nothing doesn't mean that gives them the right to take advantage of you. Basically you're degrading Pac by saying he came from nothing so he just happy for what he got, but what you don't realize is Rich people can go broke really fast. Because they get advances on houses and cars, but if money not managed correctly them they can go broke in as fast as a week. The only reason you're defending this is because it was said by Floyd, but as soon as Pac says it , you guys will send a lynch mob. Don't listen to who said it, listen to what's being said, and it's not the first person who has been saying this.

Everything you said is absolutely wrong. Every one has his own perceived worth of value. It is the same as happiness. What makes you happy might not be true to others.

For some people they have inflated their own self value to the point of ridiculousness, and that's the reason it's hard for them to get a fight anymore, but that's what how they perceived their value, for some people like manny if you give them what's enough for them (their own perceived self value) then they are good with it. Do manny knows that he is being short changed? Probably yes, but the reason he probably brush it off I stated above.

You're delusional. The Pacquiao who held out of the Hatton fight for a percentage or two more is brushing off being robbed?

Nope you're ******ed. He held out because he feels his value more than that. lol

Exactly

Hope he hasn't spent that cash advance he asked for last week or two to seal the deal.

I can't believe Pacquiao needed another advance after the most lucrative fight in history...it is madness.

It's not going to end well, methinks.

I saw that and thought WTF? He made like $100 mil plus for that fight. Then again, he bought Puffy's LA house for like $12 mil before the fight even happened.

What he does for his money is his own business. Do we hope he is somehow frugal enough so that in the near future he's not broke? yeah most of us want them to use their money in the right way because they've earned it through blood and sweat. But in the end we can't control what they do with their own money.
