"Who? What has he done? Who is he?" - Floyd Mayweather

[cortdawg25]

You said Margarito was not on Floyd's level. I said if Floyd believed that wouldn't he jump to sign for an easy fight against a fighter who wasn't even on his level for a career-high guaranteed purse? Of course he would.

Hell no, he wouldnt. It aint just about the $$$ for the thousandth Millionth time, would u please get over that. Its about making $$$$ and building your legacy. Its those 2 things together in a communion, the win-win.

LOL, see how he won't reply to things like this?

I wouldn't waste your time with him bro. He's a complete nut, and he has blinders on.

LOL I just answered it. Because Floyd says that fight does nothing for getting Margarito closer to a fight with him, which is his goal.

You're still not getting it, because you have ignorance blinders on.

Floyd's not fighting him.

So cyring and huffing about it, and planning his career around a fight he's not likely to get anytime soon only sees him continue on with a mediocre resume.

Williams is probably the most credible fight available to him right now, and Williams is screaming for the fight.

Saying "Floyd won't be impressed if i beat Williams" and then turning around and fighting a lesser fight is just ******.

Why are you so sure he's not fighting him? DLH may just retire. Mosely is not allowed to fight Floyd until DLH makes up his mind whether he wants to fight him first. So neither of those fights are serious options right now. It could be another year before DLH decides, who knows?

Margarito wants Mayweather and so does Arum. They are keeping their eye on the prize, and will try to corner him any way they can. They've done a pretty good job of it, most of Floyd's interviews are him deflecting Margarito questions. Most articles about Floyd mention Margarito. If the DLH fight doesn't happen, which is probably 50/50 right now, then Arum's $8M will still probably be the biggest fight for Floyd.

The fight with Delahoya is VERY likely because of the amount of people that stand to make so much money off it.

Since you're so clueless, it's been said there would be approx 55 Million to split between the purses, and Ring Magazine estimates at least one million PPV buys, possibly 1.5+.

So there goes your "not sure if Floyd will make 8 Million vs Oscar" stance.

And FYI:

http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=2549586

Although terms of Mayweather's deal (to fight Baldomir) with Goossen were not released, industry sources believe he will make at least $8 million, plus a percentage of pay-per-view profits. Mayweather rejected the same offer from Top Rank to face titlist Antonio Margarito.

There goes all the crying from that angle too.

Not much left, but it will be no supize to see you back exclusivly crying about this topic week after week.


The bottom line is Floyd isn't fighting Margarito anytime soon, and the best move for his career is to accept that and move on to try and make the best career moves outside of that fight.

You keep talking about fights that will corner Floyd. There aren't any.

Margarito has one of the hottest prospects in boxing calling him out who is also his mandatory. There is NO REASON for him not to take that fight.

The DLH fight is speculation, like I said. You're speculating. Maybe it does a million. Doubtful. But the point is, why should Margarito give up hope of fighting Floyd because Floyd MIGHT fight DLH? That makes no sense.

And it's so funny about the "industry sources." Why can't anyone just come out and say what the contract was for? LOL Goosen was asked directly, and would never say, in fact he all but said Floyd wasn't guaranteed $8M to fight Baldomir. He carefully close his words and wouldn't say either way, but by doing that, he basically saying it's not an $8M guarantee, but Floyd MAY make $8M or more, but that's totally dependent on the PPV numbers.

LOL, you just spin spin spin away.

Floyd's making the money he'd make agaisnt Margarito agaisnt Baldomir, plus he's getting the title.

Don't agree? Why that's just your SPECULATION.

Funny how you don't 'think' Floyd vs Oscar would see Floyd get 8 Million, and now you dont' 'think' Floyd vs Oscar would do a Million PPV buys when Oscar vs Mayorga did almost that, and Hopkins Delahoya did 1.2

You certianly 'think' some funny and interesting things inbetween telling me that I'm speculating.


The point is Floyd is NOT fighting Margarito anytime soon. You continue to neglect this fact and insist on continuing to huff about it in it's place.

Margarito doesn't have a great resume as is, and the best thing he can do is take the best fights possible for his career.

Paul Williams is one of boxing's hottest prospects, and he's Margarito' mandatory challenger for his WBO title.

For the 5th time, there's NO REASON for him not to take that fight in place of a lesser fight.

[guru]

i couldnt understand how they could give floyd $8 mil for a fight with tony, i didnt think it was a fight that could generate that much cash, so i really dont know how floyd is gonna make that much or more with baldy....

they've not officially stated any details of the contract on how much PBF will get, everybody has been speculating that it could be as much or more than $8 mil.... if it is, then why not release those details? why not throw it in the face of arum and tony?

Yes, it's all speculation. The "proof" you quoted to me was just that, speculation. "..industry sources believe.." That's speculation if I ever heard it, totally meaningless. If he was making $8M guaranteed, then Goosen would have just said so, without all the dodging when he was asked directly. He would never say one way or the other. So actually, YOU are just speculating that he's making $8M guaranteed, just like I'm speculating that he isn't. Neither of us has seen the contract, and official numbers have not been released (which tells you something right there).

As for the DLH numbers, yes, I'm speculating, just like you are. I'd guess around 900K if I had to. And that's speculating on a fight that is pure speculation. LOL

I don't know why so many of you have a problem with this.

When's the last time ANY financial details were released to the public?

They don't do that, and never will.

The only evidence of that gaurentee from Arum was from Arum's mouth. And we all know Arum's the poster boy of credibility.

That ESPN link was from Dan Rafael. Sure it's possible it's all made up, but he's generally a credible source.

No one's releasing any details about anything for any fight, but it's safe to say those indication in that article are pointing to Floyd getting in and around 8 Million for the Baldomir fight.
