Which may be cool for floyd but as long as pac and floyd are making $20-$30 million a fight they both don't care that much if they don't fight eachother. Look at floyd he doesn't want to give pac a 50-50 split cuz he can get a 90-10 split against Ortiz and a 80-20 split against cotto. They both make bank any way so why should they care? Like I said there are pluses and minuses for each sport.

this can't be true....can it?


Mayweather New HBO Deal - Merchant & Lampley...
While in negotiations for the May 5 Mayweather fight, Mayweather instructed his representative Al Haymon to inform HBO’s Hershman that if the boxer was to fight on HBO in the future, Lampley and Merchant must surrender the right to discuss any and all of Mayweather’s affairs outside the ring on the HBO telecast. The ban would include any discussion of Mayweather’s management team.

Mayweather previously demanded the same ban during past fight negotiations with former longtime HBO Sports President Ross Greenburg but Greenburg never ceded any measure of editorial control of HBO’s own broadcasts to the boxer.

Multiple sources have informed SbB that Hershman, who recently took over for Greenburg, has since agreed to Mayweather’s ban demand.

Additionally, Hershman agreed to surrender the right of Lampley and Merchant to discuss any outside-the-ring affairs of other fighters repped by Haymon.

Lampley and Merchant have been informed of their new, on-air editorial limits pertaining to Mayweather and other Haymon-repped fighters with the latter ban going into full effect this Saturday when Lampley and Merchant call Adrien Broner’s fight on HBO.

When you have a degree in Finance and you work has a Financial Analyst like I do, you always look at the money. You most understand I think differently then most people I can read between the lines. UFC went head to head with Mayweather on PPV. Mayweather killed the UFC in PPV #'s that's why Dana hates Mayweather. 90% of the world problems are about money. So money will always be talked about.
i understand that. but i think its gay for athletes to say. hey! im making moneyand a whole lot of it. we already know that. thanks for reminding us fans that ur underwear cost more than our sneakers

Do you really think he gives a flying fuck about this stupid head to head you keep bringing up?


What a great conspiracy theory you came up with. What Floyd Tweeted was stupid, Dana was asked about it, and gave his opinion, end of story.
If you would open your eyes and read you will understand that Dana White always has Mayweather name in his mouth. Did you read about Dana's comments about Floyd and the Las Vegas Comission? Or his comments about the Ortiz fight? I can go on and on about Dana with Mayweather name in his mouth. It's clear that Dana hates Mayweather, but ask your why? Dana's not a boxing promoter and has never done any business with Mayweather. So why is he hating so hard? I already answered that for you. If you would read more and stop trying to hate on me so much you might learn a few things.

Hopefully it's true, lol, keep the subject matter about boxing.

They don't discuss Pacquiao's personal affairs outside of the ring.

So I get the fact that Floyd can do no wrong in your eyes, but the shit that Dana was bashing him for was the same shit a lot of people were bashing him for. You see it as him "hating" on Floyd, I see it as him calling it how he see's it.


I'm not hating on you though. Just feel like your nuthuggery is so extreme sometimes that I feel compelled to reply.


I personally think the reason why he goes so hard after Floyd is because of the idiotic things Floyd does.

C'mon now, you can't sit here and applaud every little thing that Floyd does, because some of it is just ridiculous.

Huh, Floyd can do no wrong in my eyes?

What about when I said Floyd was wrong for saying Pacquiao should make him some sushi? Or how about for hitting his baby momma and taking her phone? He obviously did something or he would have never plead guilty. And I don't agree with Floyd not giving or offering Pacquiao a 50/50 split, since Pacquiao would agree to fight Floyd in Vegas on May 5th.

You're so quick to call somebody a nuthugger but I guess you forgot about that ya dummy!

Gather up your facts before making stupid comments!

Yes, all fight that's why Ortiz eye was almost closed in only 4 rounds of action. Maybe you need to count the punches land by Mayweather on Ortiz again in the gif., because I can see 4 punches clearly landing to Ortiz head and body. Ortiz got beat-up, couldn't land a hard punch, got mad, headbutted Floyd, and got knocked out for it. The only delusional people are the Ortiz fans that still acting like Ortiz didn't get his ass whipped. Now what are people going to say when Floyd beat-up and then KO Cotto in 9 rounds??
are you fuckin' stupid or somethin? the only reason his eye was like that was because of the 2 piece sucker punch. god you are a fuckin' moron.

you're just another one of these Floyd groupies that can't say anything bad about him at all. your opinion on this subject is null n' void breh. GOT HER!
Dude who da fuck is u? U a Floyd hater to the fullest so what u say dont count. Anyone that knows boxing can see Floyd was shutting Ortiz out and frustrated him to the point of being dirty! Ortiz never had a shot trust me. If u think otherwise u just on that haterade potna! Got Em!!

Floyd's manager, leonard ellerbe:

"He needs to shut the fuck up and mind his own business, stay in his own lane and keep on taking advantage of the UFC fighters, while underpaying them. If he keeps on running his mouth, we may decide to give a free seminar to all of the UFC fighters on how the pay-per-view revenue should be distributed. This is typical Dana, who is always prone to ignorant outbursts. He should be the last person to try to judge someone else."


Yea those UFC cats are way underpaid for such a brutal sport! Got Em!!
