Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao, Mayweather Spending Could Lead To Rematch

I know posters want Floyd to go broke so they can see him lose at something but maybe he actually is managing his finances well and is using just his disposable income on all the luxury items. Posters seem to think he is still in the same financial situation he was going back to 2005-07.

Deevel.......

this is what im saying. for them to be completely broke something big has to happen like a big lawsuit that will completely wipe their bank account out and i dont see that happening.

Would definitely take one hell of a civil suit, plus both men I think are invested globally now in many varying industries so I doubt these two will fall casualty to the same causes of Tyson and others. Listen if they are still paying Busta Rhymes and Ja Rule upwards of 20k for an appearance i'm pretty sure Manny and Floyd will not go hungry.

Floyd already got scammed for millions once.

This isn't a smart guy, he could go broke, when he returned tk boxing Golden Boy had to give him up front lump sum payment because he had no $.

I dont know why anyone thinks it can't happen again.

Floyd would only come back if Vegas keeps covering up for him (which, for some reason, I doubt they will).

Fck outta here

Their greed will lead to a second fight before their need will.

Jordan along with Magic have laid a template for retired stars (no matter what race) to follow once their careers have come to an end

Michael's worth today dwarfs what it was when he finally retired as well as Magic's.

I see Lebron following in their footsteps

Hopefully Floyd and Manny will be as business savvy as they are.

Floyd gambles like it's PartyPoker... MGM doesn't just give you 2 Bugatti Veyrons as comp for being a celebrity.

Pacquiao's political ambitions would be the equivalent of that.

Those guys may be jocks, but they are college educated...

Floyd and Manny? not so much.

Freddie, please move on! You lost 8-4 at a minimum. It's okay. Floyd has beaten Oscar, Cotto, Canelo, and Pacquiao. He doesn't need to fight anymore. Just do your job, and try to convince Manny to fight a few more times, and your pockets will stay fat. You'll be OK!

Pac & FLoyd fooled us once into paying top dollar for a BS fight. Screw falling for the Oakie Dokie again.

I could see a scenario where Mayweather Promotions fails to find the next big fighter and starts bleeding money and he is in a bad spot now that those fight checks stop coming in. Couple that with his fondness for ********, the amount of people around him with their hands out, and the way he spends his money its no out of the question he could be broke sooner rather than later.
Its not about how much you have, its about the rate that your spending it. $400 million seems like enough to last a lifetime but Floyd has blown through $30-40 million between fights before so its not crazy to think it could thin out in a few years.
