    My chest is starting to hurt, could this be related to my 48 hour erection? I'm scared, I don't want to die.

    I'd hate for my hard-earned benjamins to be flung around in some club. I'd rather it be used to build hospitals and whatever else saintly **** Pac does over there in the Islands.

    I pay to watch them fight not make wise investments.

    And he's not going to get it, either. How does a guy who gets bested in every PPV against common opponents, get a 50/50 split?

    When has that ever happened?

    That was the first thing I tried, genius. DUH!

    Anyone with any real advice?

    Mayweather has been beating Pacquiao in buys all along, so why has it all of sudden emerged now that Pacquiao doesn't deserve 50-50? Back when Mayweather was out-doing him in Oscar, Hatton, Mosley, JMM, etc, 50-50 was ok, but now all of a sudden because Mayweather changes his mind, Pacquiao doesn't deserve it? Come on, guys. Quit the bull****.

    Beating him in buys doesn't mean he was making that much more money than Pacquiao like he is now. His pay has doubled since the Marquez PPV bout, while Pac's has stayed almost the same.

    Yup. It's all going to be about how much MONEY one gets TOTAL that goes into their bank account that matters the most.

    All numbers just have to be brought to the table with all sides sitting down and looking them over with a neutral mediator.

    I thought it was revenue generated that counts? May-Ortiz did significantly less PPVs than May-Mosley but raked in a tad bit more. We can't completely ignore PPV either since inflation has to be counted for as well.

    Take for instance, Pac/Marquez, which actually did more buys than May/Ortiz (unofficially, but for discussion's sake)

    Mayweather still came out with double Pac's take at the end of the PPV.
