    Yeah gotta agree with that, Mayweather is kidding himself if he thinks he's entitled to anything more than 50% in that fight.

    Anyway, **** the two of them.

    Floyd-Cotto May 5, 2012, what will you be doing?

    You wanted Guerrero, you wanted Canelo, and in the end you got the one fight that makes you suck your thumb hahaha

    He's gonna make at least 35 mil fighting Bradley..

    Do you NOT understand this isn't about money. Its about FLoyd getting a 1 up on Pac which he will not concede under ANY circumstances.

    A Guaranteed $40 Million plus a split (not 50/50) but still a split...even if it was 70/30, 30% of the Biggest Fight in History in addition to $40 Million...Pacquiao could have made an easy $70 Million-plus. Oh Well, I guess $7 Million to fight a TR fighter is a better deal....FOR ARUM!!!!

    It has no effect on me, one way or the other. As I said, I'm not making a cut from anyone.

    I laid out why I think it's a smart fight for Mayweather in another thread ("Least Excited I've Been For A Mayweather Fight Since Baldomir" thread). I've also said that I admire the Money Team for what they've been doing, how they've upped their game, etc.

    I keep seeing this figure but find it a little hard to believe. Anyone have a reliable source for this? I'm pretty sure this would be negotiable just like other money splits.

    do you know how few people know that the cable companies get a massive take from the PPV price? You know your ****. How often do you see people say well, $55 x 1,000,000 buys they each get 27.5 million, lmao smh.

    First and foremost you are an idiot.

    Secondly the fight could never happen as Arum **** his pants when he ran out of excuses and Pac has a cut that is going to take 14 years to heal or something!

    Thirdly, all you *******s are just crapping yourselves about now that Pac will either pick a **** smokescreen fight against Lamont Peterson or bite off more than he can chew against Timothy Bradley and get starched for his trouble.

    Mark my words, if it's Bradley Pac comes in more roided than ever or takes a nap in the ring.

    :lol::lol::lol:

    Oh yeah, Mayweather vs Cotto at a real weight not some ****ing anorexia induced catchweight bull**** ala the congressman!

    at the end of the day, your boy DUCKED pac AGAIN and made a fight with another fighter.

    Will you ever come to grips with that?

    hah, can't believe how you can defend this fight. You'd be happy if it was Canelo or Khan..

    Dude he turned down 40 mil and from the Nsac reports the most he ever made was 8 million. so he turned down 32 more million then he ever has made. IMayweather called Pacquiao and told him he wanted the fight!!!! If that doesnt stand for anything then your a fool with the rest of them.

    Now Cotto chose Mayweather over Pacquiao because Pacquiao only wants to fight Cotto at 147 where he cant make weight and Mayweather is gonna fight him at 154, now u tell me who has the more balls????
