Comments Thread For: Video: Mayweather Leaks Clip of The Pacquiao Meeting

What does that have to do with what I just said?

Then you're not clear- what are you talking about? I said that ultimately the decision will rest with Floyd bc i predict the other "issues" will be worked out. If purse split is agreed, what else can stop the fight from occurring?

These are adults, I keep telling myself that. And I laugh more.

The irony...

[jcpryor]

No one is pretending, who said that. Haymon, TR, hbo, show are all sincere. Just seems Mayweather will n9t agree. Hope I'm wrong.
honestly, what's the point of that clip otherwise?

You just said that Mayweather doesn't really want to make the fight, which means you think everything that he's doing right now is an act, with the end game being him announcing another fight with Cotto. What am I missing here?

WhAt?

Why can't people just give their thoughts?

What did anyone say that is do funny anyway? That a lot of people believe Floyd ultimately will back out again?
HILARIOUS!

[IMDAZED]

Well see. But there's soooo much money at stake, hbo and show will work it out. Arum was a HUGE impediment in the past and is talking out of turn now. Thay said, Top Rank agreed to 60/40, date floyd wants, location floyd wants, etc.
If the fight doesn't happen, why do u think that is?

How would we know the answer to that question before it actually happens? Silly to ask that now. We can only look at what happened in the past and as you admit in your previous post, Arum is a lying piece of **** and Pacquiao should have accepted steroid testing.

But see this is how we know guys like you really don't want the fight. Because if you did, you wouldn't prematurely imagine this delusional blame game while we remain on the verge of the biggest fight our lifetimes. ****, if you really wanted to see the fight you might like the clip of a fighter saying "we have to make this happen." Never crossed your mind, huh?

Mayweather doesn't really want the fight. I think that everyone else does, so yes, he is pretending to want it.
the dozens of others involved in negotiations are legit in wanting it, including showtime and TMT

[al-Xander]

No wonder Espinoza was already talking about Cotto 2 and Khan as alternatives the other day. Why would you even do that if you're the one dragging this whole thing down? If you're laser-focused on one thing, you don't talk about alternatives. No way these clowns could possibly make people blame Paq and Arum for this fight not happening. That's too much of an insult. They should never get away with this. It's been going on for five years now.

And my question was how can you predict what would derail the fight right now? You're asserting that the networks will come to an agreement, which is premature. they may very well come to an agreement, but who is to say it will be right away? What information do you have that the rest of us dont?

This is how the rest of that meeting went:

"We have to make this fight...... but I'm the "A-side" and you have to meet all my demands. I want us to wear 10oz gloves and I take all the PPV money. This must also only be on Showtime only and you have to join TMT and give me a couple of fights after."

^^^^^^

This exactly.

Floyd tried to get Manny to leave Bob and go to TMT.

Floyd needs to grow up and live with the fact that Arum is going to be art of any deal made.

.....

Pretty much ^^^^
