    Ohhhhh, so I get it. Mayweather didn't fight at all within the time frame that Forbes took into account when making up this list. :rofl

    Which is strange, cause that means they didn't count the Mosley fight on May, 1st 2011.

    The $25M PAC earnings posted on that list is only from 1 fight, the Margarito fight plus endorsements, etc.

    From May 1, 2011, PAC has the Mosley and JMM fights. Both were high earning events for PAC.

    And since they didn't count Mayweather's bout in May of 10' apparently, they have to count both that bout and the Ortiz bout. :lol:

    You're too much vengeex.

    You show a Forbes list with the express intention to make it seem like Pac is a bigger earner than Floyd or some other dumb **** agenda, and you leave out the fact that Mayweather isn't on the list cause he didn't fight within the time frame that was being used to compile said list.

    Too funny.

    Either that or the Floyd-Mosley fight was already accounted but Floyd actually didn't earned enough to make the Top 50. :rofl

    floyd wants to implement his financial scheme in this fight. Pac will get a guarantee of $40M and Floyd will get all the revenues. Its like a rental for services, the same practiced by floyd against GBP fighters where floyd guaranteed his opponents a million or two while the rest of the profits will be controlled by floyd.

    This scheme is applicable when you are fighting someone like Ortiz or Khan, but against another superstar who has a fanbase which rivals or even exceeds Floyd's fanbase support, this will not fly. Pac deserves a 50/50 purse sharing

    So did they just not count Maweather's fight with Mosley in May 2010? In which Mayweather reportedly took home 40 million? :think

    Manny was guaranteed 15 million for Margarito. Mayweather was guaranteed 22.5 for Mosley. You're not very good at math, are you? :think

    Honestly I usually ride with Floyd but really if you're serious about a fight with Manny pacquiao you don't embarrass him by posting his **** ass paydays. Also if he's about fighting Manny he has to accomodate pac for accomodating him. If he wants Manny to fight him before he goes to Jail then he needs to pay a premium to get Manny into the ring.

    It's not my fault or anybody's fault that Floyd lost the urge.

    Just like it's not our fault that Floyd soon goes to jail.

    Mayweather must be too desperate in wanting Pacquaio but also too greedy to give in to 50/50.

    Pacquiao is richer than Arum, I dont think he cares.
