Comments Thread For: Roach on Mayweather Demands: Gimme a F***in' Break!

[solo20]

Ummm Pacquiao already said he would take less to make the fight soooo in actuality he already doesn't see himself as an equal to Mayweather. I say make it 60/40 in favor of Mayweather and make the fight happen for May 2nd. I don't agree that it is money because if it was money then the fight would have been made a long time ago. Floyd wanted it and Manny didn't because he felt he didn't have to do what Mayweather asked. Pacquiao has always been more difficult to negotiate with than Mayweather just look at Cotto/Hatton negotiations.

I stop reading at "Pacquiao already said he would take less to make the fight soooo" YOU HAVE TO BE A GRADE A MORON TO BELIEVE THAT CRAP its bullsh!it its one of the biggest fights in history and you believe Pac is not going to want to get his share just to please the fans or Mayweather **** out of here with that nonsenses MARK MY WORDS FIGTH WONT HAPPEN BECAUES OF THE MONEY SPLIT. the one who gets the stick in his ass will be Mayweather he needs Pac more to seal his legacy. They will always bring that up if he doesn't fight Pac he needs to lick Pac's nut sack to get the fight sign

First off, you are a ignorant fool and are no different from the "JACK ASSES" you mentioned. Manny is a household name and you can even do your own survey if you doubt it and he made his name by fighting popular boxers and beating them in an exciting passion, the way most viewer wants to see. Pac is a real threat to Floyd and a lot of boxing fans know this. Floyd generates more revenue if the fans knows Jr could lose the fight just like Oscar,Cotto and Canelo and these fighters are slow compared to Pac but still generated a record PPv numbers, why? people want to see a bad guy lose. 25 Mill plus 40% PPV share for Pac will make this fight a reality. Arum is a road block but I see this fight happening this spring.

Pacquiao fans do not understand these facts. They always talk about how popular Manny is but his #'s don't compare. Arum/Manny are acting like they are supposed to be in control totally ignoring that Floyd is the A side in the match up. Before when they were neck and neck Floyd agreed to 50/50 but now that is not the case. I want and always wanted to see the fight but in my opinion Arum and Team Pacquiao have been the biggest obstacles to making this fight a reality. They seem content off of living off of Mayweather's name to sell Manny as a threat but never intend or fighting him. They just want to market Manny as Mayweather's equal because if they really felt Manny was then Bob would have made that fight happen years ago. Why Pacquiao fans continue to be blinded when everything is right there is beyond me because it really makes them look like JACK ASSES.

This critter Roach needs fumigating. He lies thru his twisted mouth. Don't do everything in talking to the media. Talk to Arum. Who do you think you're fooling saying you want the fight and blames Mayweather rather than Arum?

So you are saying Pacquiao is lying about taking less money to make the fight happen then? Didn't at one point Pacquiao said he would fight for free and give the money to charity? And you are confirming in your mind that he is a bald face liar. Thanks for clarifying this. Mayweather the highest paid athlete in the sport needs to kiss Pacquiao's ass for his legacy to be sealed? Only Pac fanatics and naysayers believe this.

Sooo Floyd is not a house hold name then? Would be rather embarrassing for Manny who by your standards is more of a house hold name than Mayweather, be the lesser of the two in the sport of boxing which he is. Manny made his name fighting at 130 but his world wide fame came in 2008 fighting Oscar who Mayweather fought prior and Hatton who Floyd beat before Pacquiao. That's where the balk of Manny's fame came from bruh. He didn't do anything Floyd didn't do to become a house hold name but as it stands Mayweather is the #1 guy in the sport. Even when Floyd was retired Manny shared the #1 PFP spot with Mayweather. Doesn't matter why and How Mayweather generates more PVP #'s than Manny because facts are he does but yet Pacquiao fans still want to act like Manny is in the drivers seat. I say just make the fight but Arum don't want to disrespect Mexicans.

Forget the past, Pacs last US fight did about the same as Floyds

Was Pac's last fight on American PPV? yes it was so Mayweather's last fight VS. Pac's last fight, Pac didnt even do half. So yeah lets skip the pass. Present is even worst. Suits your argument to conveniently pick and choose what fights to compare, lame. Mayweather Doubles anything Pac does and there is nothing wrong with Mayweather expecting the negotiations to reflect that. If the tables were turned I would say the same thing for Pac and all of you would be jumping down Mayweathers throat, while Mayweather fans would be arguing that Mayweather deserves half, it's a truly comical Ballet.

There is a host of problems with this fight being negotiated let alone being made, but one of the biggest problems is Arum trying to dictate terms as if Pac is the "A" side or on equal footing, which he is not. Once Arum concedes that Pac is the "B" side, negotiations will probably move along. Of course this is based on what has surfaced in the media, so my comment is in reference to that.

:f**kyou: fight wont happen if you think Pac is getting the same amount Madina did with out Pac this PPV wont do over 2 mil the one who is foolish is you

Not once in my comment did I suggest that Pac should get what Maidana got, deflection as a tool rather than just admitting incompetence.

I Apologize I didnt realize that Pac's funds affect you and holds such importance in your life. You must be American and the fact that Pac skipped out on paying millions of dollars in taxes must really anger you, that must be why you are fighting for Pac to get paid more, so he can repay the taxes which is only fair. You are a brilliant idiot.

If the fight happens Pac will most likely make far less then Mayweather, who really cares, other then the parties involved? facts are facts get over it bro.

Overseas events sell between 30-50% less than similar US based events. This is well documented in both boxing and mma and even wrestling.

If you want to know each fighters actually current drawing power and not just be a fanboy then you have to compare their most recent fights with the least variables and that Maidana 2 and Bradley 2.

If Floyd is twice the draw explain why those fights did similar numbers ? Is Bradley twice the draw Maidana is ? It doesn't make sense.
