Golden Boy Promotions recently offered the former five divisional champion and former pound for pound king Floyd “Pretty” Mayweather Jr. $8Million to face current WBA welterweight champion Shane Mosley. The retired Mayweather made a counter offer of $20Million guaranteed for his comeback according to a report swirling thru the internet.
Bob Arum, CEO of Top Rank, stated to AOL Latino that the amount Mayweather Jr. is asking is crazy.
“Nobody and no fight against Mosley or Pacquiao or anybody else is worth a guaranteed $20Million,” the veteran promoter stated.
“Nobody is going to give him that amount to fight Pacquiao, Mosley or even Jesus Christ!,” Arum said incredously.
Never the less, Arum did hint that Mayweather Jr. might return to the ring in 2009.
Is Freddie Roach suffering brain damage from boxing?
CORRECTION: It was not Shane, but rather PBF, that I was asking to retire. Sorry Shane. I have a high respect on u.
HA HA HA HA . PBF is, in reality, SCARED to fight Manny or Shane. $20M? OMG!!!!!!!!!!! PBF is really showing he is a coward when it comes to Manny or Shane.
Forget it. Shane, RETIRE PERMANENTLY. OK? U r a great bluffer. U r afraid that zero in ur record will become ! or 2.
U R FUNNY. RIDICULOUSLY FUNNY.

I’m a fan of PBF’s but c’mon now $20 mil is way too much 2 ask 4. Floyd is askin’ for a RIDICULOUS amount of money, although I would love 2 see this match-up go down!
