    Because Floyd is not Pac's manager, he don't control his finances. Its not about what he makes, its about how much he generates. And they both generate roughly the same.

    Theres 200mil on the table. They split 50/50.

    Floyd keeps 90mil, Pac keeps 50mil and gives 50mil to rest. Either way Floyd earns more but its still a 50/50 split.

    Now if we went with Floyds way, Floyd get 150mil, Pac get 50mil, Pac pay Arum+co 25mil. Pac is left with 25mil.

    Floyd is not Pac's manager/promoter, he dont control his finance, where Pac's money goes is up to him but either way, the fight is 50/50. Only a huge idiot would say otherwise.

    Manny never agreed to full testing with no cut offs is what happened. We had 14 and 7 days which Mayweather made clear he would not accept any cut offs. You already knew that though.

    No way Floyd makes 90 million off of this fight. Too many people have to get paid and this fight would have to do 3.5 million ppv buys in order for Floyd to make something like that and that isn't happening. Each guy both making 50 or 60 million off of this fight is really pushing it as well.

    yeah. people are exaggerating the purse money. The general public doesnt even care about this fight as much anymore. The longer they wait the more money is leaving the table for both of them

    so arum offered floyd $50M under the same terms that floyd offer pac. arum and floyd knows better than you that this fight would generate more to offer that amount.

    Did Manny agree to full random with no cut offs? Yes or No. I clearly remember Floyd saying no full testing then no fight in the ring post fight Mosley. He said it again after that as well.

    Now I can honestly say that Floyd could have went back on that and gave Manny a 7 day window but he didn't. Unlike your non boxing *****tard ass I can honestly say that they are all at fault for this fight not happening. What about you?

    Dude you really need to stop believing everything you read. So you are actually thinking that Arum would pay Floyd 50 million and Manny 50 million guarantees? That is 100 million dollars off the top. Then if they split the PPV 50/50 thats even more. Tell me something? How does Arum profit off of that? He doesn't which goes to show you that its all bull**** media politics.

    false

    floyd will make more money fighting cotto and giving him a guaranteed $8 mill plus a percentage of ppv than he would fighting manny at 50-50. especially if the manny fight is a co-promotion
