Comments Thread For: Team Pacquiao: Floyd Mayweather Demands More Money

[Gutz]

Team Mayweather hasn't said a word so Team Pac is resorting to negotiating through the g****vine.

Really, really pathetic.

Wanna know what really pathetic.. starting false accusations and spreading lies to smear another fighter..

[Russian Crushin]

No, as I've stated a few times. I agree to 50/50. I was stating that this is by far no SHOCK and that Mayweather said from way back when negations fell through the first time that if he sold more and made more than Pac he would demand more money. Did everyone truly forget this?

May says alot of things we all know that, he said Pac would have to go through full OST to make the fight happen and then changed his mind to 14 day cutoff. So Floyd does BS alot

Lets forget what Floyd and Manny did in the past and lets look at what both fighters will do in thier fight together

I still dont get why people dont understand that Mosley was signed to fight Berto when Pac made the Clottey fight. A week later the earthquake hit and Berto had to cancel.....what was Pac suppose to do, leave the Clottey contract and go after Mosley? Dude GET REAL

No son, you have to open them eyes of yours and realize that Mosley approached Roach presumably before the Mosley/Berto fight was announced and it was pretty obvious that Pacquiao was gonna go up to 147 lbs after his Hatton fight. So if Manny really is the best and fights the best, why didn't Roach say "yes we will fight you Mosley even though you're not apart of my bank Top Rank and you are much better than Manny's stablemate Cotto".

Ok but everytime the fight is pretty much made, and he brings in a new road block....people dont care about money or crap like that, we wanna see the fight and to keep bringing in new demands is ridiculous....

Come on i know your not happy with Floyd doing all this crap either just like every other boxing fan

The Hatton-Pacquiao fight almost didn't happen because Pacquiao...get ready...MANNY WANTED MORE MONEY!!! DUN DUN DUN! STFU about people don't care about money, less I remind you Arum is currently the sports most selfish SOB and don't be so fcking naive and think that it ain't rubbing off on Pac. And this isn't a new roadblock, Floyd already said he wanted the lions share if he did better and thats what he's doing AND if anything is ridiculous its asking 10 million for 1 pound over the weight limit.

Yeah, only if they're proven false.

[switchsouthpaw]

whose fault is it that manny pac chose to fight clotty?? They cherry picked clotty!!! They chose to fight clotty and take a no risk fight!!!!

Mayweather took a big risk in fighting mosley!!!

**** it was the only risk he took in 5 years.

Floyd and his money.. Fight for legacy already!

TOO MANY DEMANDS by this ******. Just get the FIGHT on already.. If FLOYD wants to go down in history as one of the best boxers of all time.. he NEEDS to take down PAC since PAC is one of the TOP DAWGS in his era.. and this opportunity IS THERE with 50-50?? what else can you ask for?

[formarkiz]

WHAT A ***** MOVE THIS IS.. FLOYD has a chance to be one of the GREATEST with 50-50 split?? Every GREAT FIGHTER takes down the TOP DAWGS in his era.. it doesn't make sense to throw away that OPPORTUNITY when the split is 50-50 deal !! ...

Floyd said he doesn't fight for legacy, but Manny does, so he should take the monetary hit for his legacy he cares soooo much about. Why should Floyd when he consistently outsells him, and is already earning Pac's biggest possible payday against other fighters.

[WESS]

and I agree with that. I'm also game and always look forward to the shyt talking, especially from the Mayweather's. So the he said she they said is all in fun. I was just asking how is everyone getting upset as if this is something he JUST came up with. He's been saying it from the beginning and the numbers are correct. He has in fact made and sold more than Pac. Is it right to ask more? Who knows. I don't care. I think the fight gets made so I'm not tripping over it. I also know that if the fights not made something will be in place for Mayweather and I just hope it involves Martinez or Pwill. (someone of size).

Mayweather definitely deserves a bigger share as he is generating more revenue and buys. But if Pac agrees to the full random testing without any cutoff dates in return for a 50/50 split in order to make the fight happen then i think Mayweather deserves to catch some flak.

People shouldn't be surprised as he did make this clear from Pac walked away from the negotiations the first time. Plus when factor in the fact that Pac has that silly defamation lawsuit going that's not going to help negotiations. Fans need to just write this fight off and boycott both figher's future fights until this one gets made.

Its funny because Mosley HAS been calling out may for like 5-6 years and came to his face on the Marquez fight and then STILL signed to fight Berto


Money is a major thing in top fighters negotiations and that fight was made.....dont compare Hatton to Pac because Hatton doesnt bring in AMERICAN PPV
