Floyd Mayweather Demands $100 Million to fight Manny Pacquiao

Floyd Mayweather Demands 100 Million US Dollars to fight Manny Pacquiao


Don King took over negotiating for Floyd Mayweather with Bob Arum, people are surprised that with Don King diong the negotiating that Arum is saying “Floyd demands 100 million dollars”? DON KING IS THE ONE NEGOTIATING. That’s right folks, in the latest talks between Floyd Mayweather’s and Manny Pacquiao’s camps as reported by GMA NEWS.TV (a Filipino news website) Don King, on “Money” Mayweather’s behalf, is insisting for a pay day of 0 million to fight Pacquiao. Talks for the super fight resurfaced recently when Mayweather agreed to have Don King talk to Pacquiao’s promoter, Bob Arum of Top Rank, on his behalf. Arum, who is in the Philippines with Pacquiao, noted that, “We (King) went through with the negotiations and nobody really knew about it, then some group came in saying they plan to have it in a particular country, and Mayweather asked for a figure that was so high it was practically an indication that he didn’t want to fight,” stated Arum. An upset Arum countered upon Mayweather’s request for 0 million by saying, “Pay him 0 million? Unless Manny fights for nothing, how can you do the fight?” Arum, who is 79, feels “that Manny is not asking for the moon, he (Mayweather) just can’t say no, he doesn’t want to fight, so, you price your way out of it.” Of course Arum will say this. He’s biased. This is the way someone who’s biased will look at this, and you also have to look at the way people negotiate. First the Olympic-style drug testing that Mayweather.
