Mayweather Wants $20 Million For Pacquiao, Mosley Bouts

[BrooklynBomber]

He won't get anything more then 8, I mean people ain't gonna buy the ppv while the economy is so much down

[Mr. Ryan]

its a real shame ... i do think 8mil is not a legit offer ... but this is the fight. not the bull**** pac fight. smm vs pbf is the fight that should be happening. it would be great to get this fight done, a fight that i can truly see going either way, a fight for the real boxing fans.

if either were to win and clottey and cotto were to fight then the winner of both could fight eachother and that that would be amazing for boxing. none of this pacman ****, manny is not a welter.

Neither Mosley or Mayweather are mega attractions. Mosley needs a Fernando Vargas, ODLH or a Margarito in the opposite corner to generate a huge response. Look at the Mayorga fight, the venue was empty.

Now look at Mayweather, who needs a ODLH or Hatton to generate big money. Mayweather has never been a big gate attraction on his own.

in negotiations always ask for more money than your worth or what you believe you will get

15 mill should do the trick, floyds just asking for 20 to see if their that ****** to give in to him


arum must also keep in mind that floyd - pac would be one of the top 5 ppv events of all time, if promoted right it could do 1.5 - 2 mil buys

co-sign
everybody on this board would buy that fight hater just to see him lose and fans just to see him win.
It been said many time if 90% come to see you lose and 10% come to see you win it still money in your pocket.

because his still saying that his the p4p

Actually he said he's passed on the torch and he's happily retired now.

As others have said, if you want someone to un-retire, you either have to pay them what you want or forget about it, there's no reason why he has to un-retire if he doesn't want to.

I don't think he's bothered about Mosley anyway, he feels Mosley didn't want to know when he was trying to get a fight with him years ago; and Mosley isn't a big crowd puller - he had to take the short end of the purse against Margarito. I think he'd be a lot more interested in Pac because of the former vs. current P4P angle, and it would make a lot more money too.

Lets ask all the Floyd Fans/ Haters on the site. Floyd is till the most talked about fighter, I'm sure everyone wants him to fight Shane or Pac

I want him to fight Shane and Pac as well BUT they dont need him to cement their legacy.......They have fought real threats, Floyd wont do it except for a crazy ass sum of $$$ because if he did lose, then he can wipe his tears with them bills

no doubt about it... its just the way i;d like to see it play out.

once again *****..floyd aint calling them..their calling him get it right and keep it right

Man I wish I were to run into you in the streets cause this internet tuff guy **** is getting old

yeah they called him and slapped him in the face with a bull**** offer of only $8mill. No doubt but like everyone has been saying 11 or 12 and work other **** into it depending on the buys
If it is promoted rght and sells big and he get 20+ then so be it
but dont make ridiculous counter offers
He unfortunatley is the guy who brings the most money even though myself and others have said otherwise but he doesnt have the balls to fight the real competition

yeah he is retired but he himself told big Al to start listening to offers and see whats on the table
so dont hide behind the "hes retired" bull****!

If he is so retired and we should leave him alone why is he entertaing the thought of returning to the ring?
Why is he owing all thess money in taxes
I beleive its up to $6.5 mill

Fact of the matter is he is coming back and he is hoping for a rematch with Hatton cause it will be for big money and against someone he already beat

he wants no part of 37 Sugar Shane or Pac or Cotto cause he knows dam well that they have a real shot at beating him especially after such a long lay off

THAT NOT TRUE PEOPLE ARESTILL GOING TO FIGHT, BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL GAMES AND if THEY PROMOTED IT RIGHT IT WOULD SELL.
PAC VS FLOYD

[BMWM3P]

They should pay him 20 million to fight Cotto, but something tells me ho won't take it.

[Left Hook Tua]

who u think has a better chance of beating floyd pac or ssm!?

depends on how much shane has left.

you never know when you get up there in age.

when you get old some fights you look like you're 20 again and then other fights you can't pull the trigger. look at bhop , he looked old against calzaghe but his next fight he looked like at the top of his game again.

if shane has anything left , he can beat floyd. i've always thought that a prime shane beats down a prime floyd anytime any weight between 135-154.

the only way i see pac beating floyd is at 140 and/or floyd is rusty.
