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

[javelin_fangs]

Whatever happened to not negotiating through the media? Team Pacquiao is trying smear Team Mayweather's negotiating stance at every turn...then watch...if/when Team Mayweather makes any statements about Team Pacquiao Top Rank, Bob Arum, et all will cry bloody murder. Manny Pacquiao really is a politician now. He and his team disgust me with their pandering.

Don't listen to anything any of these guys say, from Lil Webbie, Twizzler, Sugar Water or Check(nuts)hook, they all skype with each other simultaneously to express their shared love for the "king".

Point is 2 years ago no one would have ever expected Pac to be competitive with or much less beat Clottey, but now because he has surpassed expectations in such a short amount of time they want to find excuses/reasons to be dismissive of him, none of these guys would understand "context" if they found they found it in Mayweathers' draws which I imagine they would all love the opportunity to do.

Yea if May will bring in more money in his fight with Pac, then he deserves more money.....but in the Pac/May fight both will bring in equal money and both deserve equal money, with the past not mattering at all

I hope that they never fight each other and that Mayweather trips over one of his money stacks, while filming a video for his new rapper "cash flow"just signed to "everyone in the hood has record label, Inc."

Pac never asked for more than 50-50

AFTER PAC BEAT COTTO made 1.25 MIL and FLOYD BEAT MARQUEZ made 1.0 MIL... DID PAC ASK FOR MORE THAN 50-50 back in FEBRUARY ?!?!?!? Besides, FLOYD is RICH already, throwing away an opportunity to take down a TOP DAWG in his era.

Floyd is a bigger draw and deserves more than Pacquiao. Numbers don't lie. Plain and simple.

I doubt very much there will be a 50/50 split. Not that it matters - from my understanding, the PPV split wasn't 50/50 the first go-around anyway.

Yea it was, after the fight broke up and May signed Mosley did he say it wasnt gonna be a 50/50 split

People... This is called media posturing. Trying to shift the blame of a failed negotiation away from it's right owner. Team Pacquiao is simply trying to play the blame game and win the PR Battle it is now losing.

Floyd is fully jsutified in ASKING for a bigger percentage, the number don't lie, he is the bigger PPV draw.. period no debate!!! he is the lineal welterweight champion.. no debate there. The only thing debatable is who is top P4P. IF he does come to the table looking for a few percentages points more he has a strong case.

The word ducking is mentioned often in reference to Floyd regarding Pacquiao, but I ask the questions

Who is negotiating in Media when they said they wouldn't?
Who has a date already selected for a fight that has not even been negotiated yet?
Who has a site reserved ?
Who has an opponent selected already?

Who has no interest in the fight and who doesn't?

Negotiating In the Media...

(Just tagging the thread, for when Arum later complains about Team Mayweather responding back in the Media)

[Russian Crushin]

Floyd is a bigger draw and deserves more than Pacquiao. Numbers don't lie. Plain and simple.

So he drew 1.4 mil and the Pac/May fight is suppose to bring in 3 mil

3.0-1.4=1.6 people left over

Dont see how he will bring in more people.....we all know they will bring in equal people to thier fight

BOY and LEONARD want no part of the MAN (Pac)!!!

They will do ANYTHING to protect the GOLDEN GOOSE!!!
