Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Lomachenko is Being Underpaid By Bottom Rank!

Remember Floyd went to see Shakur Stevenson in the olympics and was all over social media with him sayibg he was going to sign him? Then come to find out Floyd didnt even make a real offer and wasnt even in the running lol Ward is his manager and he went with Top Rank what does that tell you? Floyd fighters made dog **** money and thats a fact.

Sorry, Floyd but you're full of it. You've just shown your true colors by making this ridiculous statement. No rush, huh? Tyson fought the best guys available when he was in his early 20's. Your boy needs to do the same if he wants to earn our respect.

Besides, Top Rank has done so much more for boxing, its fighters & its fans than you will ever do. Granted, they don't always do things right but you're not on their level yet. I highly doubt you will ever be. Now, stop telling your beloved boy to emulate your ducking ways. Put him in the ring with Vasyl. No more ducking.

That's not fair to make that type of comparison. Tyson was a genetic freak of nature. A once in a life time type of fighter. Davis isn't. Davis is good for what he is and is doing fine.

Loma should be getting paid top dollar if he's being touted as the best. Davis isn't on Loma's level yet and Davis is paid accordingly.

If they fought right now, Davis would get destroyed by Loma and Mayweather knows this. All this is, is Mayweather telling Loma, "Sign with me, you'll get paid more." Which also could set up a Davis vs Lomachenko fight somewhere down the line when Mayweather feels the time is right. With Loma under TMT, he wouldn't need to split promoter costs with Top Rank.

Just think about the fighters who left Top Rank. He had the top two guys back to back with De La Hoya and Floyd, and they both walked away.


I ran into this interview by Mikey Garcia about Top Rank yesterday. Top Rank has been doing this to their fighters for years.




And why the criticism for Floyd being honest about Tank. If it makes you feel better, just paraphrase it for yourself. "Tank is not ready and would get his ass kicked at this point." We all know this. If Floyd was promoting Loma and Tank was with another company, I bet some of you that disagree with what Mayweather is saying would say Tank is too green.

Floyd use to say the same thing with Rigo! Rigo becomes available and didn't pull the trigger!

Actually Pacquiao is the one who fired Visionquest. Pacquiao stayed with Top Rank and he co promotes his fights with Mp promotions. If he wasnt getting the right pay he wouldnt have stuck with Top Rank. He made 25 million each for Rios, Algieri, Bradley 3, 20 million for Jessie Vargas. These ppv's didnt perform well at all so he was probably overpaid for these fights because he had a high guarantee

You think he actually made 25 million for those fights.....lol

Why didn't Mikey sign with floyd the generous promoter?

[aboutfkntime]

It has a lot to do with it.

Read between the lines.

Remember when Floyd used to say "Cotto needs to become his own boss" with regard to the two of them fighting?

Don't expect Mayweather to do business with Arum anytime soon. Not saying he's in the right, but he's basically telling Loma he'll get paid more if he leaves him.

hmmm

good post..... possibly, a VERY good post

Floyd is right about Arum, but it does kinda look like he is protecting tank..... who is clearly not ready for Lomachenko..... but yea, good point there

[robbyheartbaby]

What an absolutely disgusting individual Floyd is. What happened to fighting the best? Floyd clearly wrapping this kid up in bubble wrap and talking crap. Disgraceful.

Badou jack career high payday was 750k and Gervonta Davis 600k both on the Mayweather undercard. Jack only made 700k when he headlined against Degale. Those are Mayweathers top guys. Even Brandon Rios got a 3 million dollar payday against Pacquiao and made 800k-1 million for many fights including Bradley, 3 Alvarado fights, diego chaves, and a bunch of others. Mike Alvarado got 750k-1 mill for many fights. Those were average Top Rank fighters. Mayweather and Pbc are all about lying to the public

[WesternChamp]

didnt floyd just say not to long ago that fighters are asking for too much money???? LOL!!!
