Mr. Knowitall
Will not be anything to me until he fights Manny.
Mayweather isn't afraid of Manny, he just has never had a fight where he couldn't dictate all the terms of the fight. Manny is big enough that he doesn't have to let Mayweather dicate terms. I hope for boxing's sake we get this fight next year. I think it may finally happen. 5 years ago this would have been an epic fight that I would go with Mayweather winning a close decision. Today, Mayweather would mop the floor with Manny. I don't think he's scared of Manny at all, he could just never get over the idea that he couldn't dictate terms to Manny.
He's a punk, he's always bitching Manny won't fight him but Mayweather insists on a 60-40 split.
Why wouldn't he? Floyd fights some nobody and makes 32 million guaranteed and around 38 million more on the backend. Floyd Mayweather made around 70 for each of his two fights with Marcos Maidana. Manny fights an undefeated guy and what did he make? 23 million total for fighting Algieri. Another 18 ish million for his fight before that with Rios.
In their last 2 fights Money Mayweather has made 100 million dollars MORE than the 40 Manny made.
Who's the draw here? Who needs who? Mayweather may be stupid with his money, but his current net worth is in the 9 figures somewhere. Pacquiao owes his own government more money than he has. And owes the US IRS too. Combined it is thought he owes more than 75 million dollars. Again who needs this fight? And why should he bend over backwards to pay Manny more than he is worth? Out of the goodness of his heart? Maybe to make you like him? The first doesn't exist and the second you guys have already made up your minds and won't like him anyways. I say he should be asking for 75-25 split.
