Basically I talked somebody close to the negotiations who is friends with Dibella and Dela Hoya. His kids play ball with my little cousin so I approached him and asked about the fight. Well he said Arum is holding the fight because he wants tv rights and he wants HBO to be on the same level of shares at Showtime. He said the issue here is that if HBO gets a hold of the rights Arum can bank a whole lot. That's his point. Espinosa saw through it. Arum then wants Floyd to give Pac around 45 mil if no tv rights for HBO. He also added that the real man behind the curtains is Schaffer. He basically can tell what Arum trying do and Haymon who is basically asking for the receipts of payments. He said that's normal if negotiations over money turning sour but he also added Floyd and camp being too greedy. Floyd should give up a little to treat the fans. Floyd wants the fight but he wants the money waaaay too much. We even talked Sergio but he dint wanna say much.

Aint this what I been saying brehs?:sas1:


It's easy to read if you acknowledge both sides and put together ALL the info that has leaked so far.


Again, Showtime offered 60/35 (40 million upfront for Pac), but leaked info says TR wants a 60/40 (which would give Pac 46 million....which is very close to the 45 million you were told Arum wants). ALSO, Floyd is being too greedy about the money because 6 million is what TR's fighting for (which is the difference between a 65/35 split offered and a 60/40 split which TR would take) while Floyd is trying to force them to take less than 40 million:camby:


It's looking bad on Floyd imo....and I will NOT change from that stance if this negotiation doesnt come off.


*edit* and you are a Floyd stan, so you would have NO reason to lie/makeup shyt to make Floyd look bad...so I believe you *edit* :salute:

Yeah brother dude is connected and he was telling me a lot about boxing. He says Floyd has too much ego and Schaffer telling him not to bend. As a boxer you have to please your fans once in a while. People bought all kinda bs cards he threw at them but now at least pay back. He said Floyd basically wants Showtime to eat off the fight and not Arum at all. He says it's a little unfair for one side to just try to keep the other side out of the loot like that. Dude hangs out with Tarver sometimes. Brehs is Tarver broke ? :patrice:

I would venture to say, since the Mayweather vs Pacquiao talks, all the fights between them have been filler fights. There's a reason why after every one of their fights, the in-ring interviewer always says, "You know the question is coming... I gotta ask...."

But I think Floyd knows his paydays and general interest may end with Manny.

:heh: it's always them dudes on the sidelines whispering in ears f'ing all the money up.


I take it as Schaffer being Floyd's advisor but Arum needs to know that he has to give up the tv rights to Showtime. No matter what. They own Floyd now so they deserve whatever Floyd deserves

I don't think so bro. Manny just did less than 300k. Floyd did 750k fighting Maidana with a grade F undercard. Face it, FLoyd sells. Pac was selling because people thought he was invincible and could defeat FLoyd. They finally saw that he was not and all the casuals left

With all due respect I agree with you to a point, but who fukk would pay to see Chris Algieri. Im surprised it did that much. Think about how Marcos beat Broner which was a huge upset, so Im not surprised that shyt doubled the PAC fight.
