Mayweather Wants $20 Million For Pacquiao, Mosley Bouts

[Sweet Pea 50]

Lets be real......

Pacquiao v Mayweather fight would make Mayweather over 20m no problem, PPV, etc.

The world owuld love to see it and Mayweather should know it could and most likely would get him 20m+ anyway......he dont want any of Pacquiao.

For all the little jokes I've cracked on Mayweather today, I'm going to be straight up about this one.

Mayweather stops Manny inside of 11.

All this money talk aside, Floyd beats Manny, and pretty badly....

[-MAKAVELLI-]

Exactly. And if Floyd fans are so anxsious to see him back, shouldn't THEY be demanding he take less money? You guys act like you're getting a cut of it or Floyd is piss poor.

BULLSEYE Jabs....PAC fans gave Manny **** for aking an extra 5% in the hatton split because it might have jeopardized the fight



the floyd fanboys just bow down to whatever floyd says

[cortdawg25]

this is hilarious...guarantee him around 15M and I think they can get him to come back. Arum is a joke, like others have said "cut da check or stfu"!

if he's about the benjamins then how do you figure this one out;


$8mil for one fight

vs

$0.00 for no fight

Mayweather got 20Mil+ for Oscar and 15+ for Hatton. The last time he was offered 8Mil was from Antonio Margarito with no get up. Went & got that 8Mil from beating Baldomir & the recognize Welter Weight title. Floyd is about getting his. At this point if he came back out of retirement to fight Manny that fight would fly off the meter from people that love him to the people that HATE him & love Pacquiao & want to see Floyd lose & think Pacquiao can win. That fight would be HUGE. Maybe Mosley's fight wouldn't be that big but it would do some good #'s do to the past rivalry and word exchange between the two. I don't think 20Mil is unreasonable considering that he got that before. Now people will say "Oh he priced himself out cause he is scared to fight" Wow! But when Manny was demanding more cake people said he deserved it? when Hatton has a big fan base, loyal fans with better currency. Miguel Cotto will possibly look past Joshua Clottey for not even next to what Floyd wants but people Cosigned that all day saying Kermit Cintron/Andre Berto will make the most $? If they want PBF then pay him, if not leave the guy alone.

Here we go with that **** again. So he was good enough to snatch the straps off of a bum journeyman and call himself the best, but not good enough to face the top dogs in that division? Cmon!

Not at all! Fighters fight for money first and glory second. It's a sad reality of the sport. Their careers are not as long as say a DR or Lawyer. You have to make as much as can. So if I could fight DLH for 20 or Marg for 8 I would pick DLH. Only a fool would do different. Arum should have came correct and offered something close to what DLH offered. You wouldn't work your job for considerably less money just for the sake saying you work for the best company. Why the hell would you expect a fighter to risk HIS health for less for your entertainment????? Cmon!

[The Gambler1981]

To all those poeple that say Mayweather is not a real attraction, that used to be right in the past but right now he is a very big attraction in boxing. It may need to be in the right fights, because he is a villian type (he has fans, and in the African-American community Floyd is real big time atleast where I am from) people do want to see him lose so a fighter has to be real top-notch to bring that about. Like Floyd or not there is not a single person on this board that does not have some kind of opinion on this man.


If someone is retired and you want them to come out of retirement, IMO they have to be drawn out of retirement and that is usually done by making them an offer they can't refuse.

A lot of Pac fans were saying he shouldn't fight Hatton for less than 55% even if it meant scuppering the fight.

well i would think hes still sitting pretty comfortably money wise right now.

right or wrong hes gonna only except what he thinks hes worth ... its like you selling ur car, someone offers you something you would consider insulting ... so u just decide to leave it in the garage instead. no gain no real loss.
