Mayweather: "If Manny wants it, I'll pay Juan to step aside"

[bzkfn]

"If Manny Pacquiao really wanted the fight with me, all he's got to do is say it," Mayweather said. "We could pay Marquez some step-aside money. Pay him a million dollars, that's nothing. Step aside. Then, my man, me and you can make seven figures. Is you ready? Let me know."

What do you guys think? Marquez is surely gunna be pissed off with this. As great as it would be to see the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather fight, it's an insult to Marquez really when they're supposed to be promoting the fight.

Fights not selling so he now wants Pac LMAO!

I would piss my pants if Marquez just told him to stick it then Manny refused and Marquez Pac 3 was made.

[The Congressman]

That's like saying "I need a better dance partner".

That's what I thougt also. Floyd's hinting Pac camp to make an offer now, coz they want to cancel the Jmm fight coz it's not selling.

If I am Pac I'll go on with the Cotto fight & let PBF-JMM to flop. Then pac can negotiate better if PBF-JMM didn't sell.

Reality is setting in that his fight with Marquez just wont sell. Mannys got a big fight with Cotto that will sell so he doesnt need Floyd

I bet a fight with Shane Mosley would sell.

It's an insult to Marquez that Floyd has suggested this though isn't it?

Yes it's an insult to JMM but JMm can't do anything anyway. Jmm got no negotiating power against any of Pac & PBF.

I wish Floyd would shoot himself in the anus

[Gandalf]

Floyd is such a dick sometimes.

Just fight the guy that you signed on to fight and quit bitching!

[cnote111]

This is hilarious to me...

What happen Floyd

I thought you were the biggest PPV Draw in the sport now that ODLH is out of the way

FMJ is pathetic!

[The Congressman]

Hey Floyd! Miguel, Shane, Tony, and Paul wants it too. When are they gonna get their chance to fight you? They've been waiting like forever. Lol

[BlackRazor]

I wish Floyd would shoot himself in the anus

That would really hurt!

In my opinion, this was dumb for Floyd to say. He put more pressure on himself for the JMM fight now, assuming it goes through.. If he loses it will be that much more embarassing considering he's basically saying that JMM isn't even worthy of fighting him.

On the other hand, he did basically call Pac out straight up. Granted it's because of the money but he doesn't really ever call anyone out, and calling out the up-for-debate #1 P4P fighter has to give Floyd some credit, no?

[ICB]

Im a fan of both fighters but i have to say, this is a total insult to JMM. Floyd Mayweather canceled the fight then got it resheduled, because of poor ticket sales or whatever, wasting JMM's time. Now he's suggesting to call the fight off completely, so he can fight Manny Pacquiao ?

So all of JMM's hard training and time, is just a waste of time ? despite JMM not getting any younger ? and he only probably has a few good ones left in him ? you know i said who i should root for before ? i think i'll go with JMM now, hes had to work hard to get where he is, he never ducks anyone.

And he has been in some great fights and he's a pleasure to watch, the great technical fighting is a thing of beauty. And P4P wise this is actually the best fighter Floyd Mayweather has ever fought, and i've seen strange upsets happen, especially with Floyd Mayweather's lay off.

He could have waited till after the Pacquiao-Hatton fight and done it, instead of signing to fight JMM. Alternatively, he could have done it after the JMM fight. I think with him referring to himself as 'the cash cow', the poor ticket sales have clearly dented his ego.
