    because they aren't really confident. that doesn't make any sense. Why risk letting Floyd get 70? Terrible. The best you can hope for is to break even? Just keep making millions fighting non threats.

    so frustrating 50/50 or 60/40 to winner it isnt that hard these two should have fought years ago
    this is why the UFC is expanding so rapidly they give the fans what they want

    Leave 0% in the hands of the judges. See Lara-Williams and Whitaker-Chavez.

    I see the pattern. Eventually we will get to 90/5 in favor of PBF, then 5 to the winner. And even then it will be not good enough (yet offer bigger cut % wise to Cotto).

    Seriously, this is the solution?
    I love how you offer less cut to Pac and still blame him for "not being confident". Yet PBF camp constantly has said Pac "aint ****" and needs power pellets.

    You guys should really get your logic train in order.

    This has nothing to do with the split. We are looking at what Pacquiao should logically make?

    Are you in favor of the accounting firm looking at both fighters numbers, to determine the split?

    LOLLLLL

    You talk as though your opinion on the money side of things actually matters.

    "Are you in favor of the accounting firm looking at both fighters numbers, to determine the split?"

    Lollllll... Like it's even Crimson's decision, or as though his opinion matters.

    If either of them REALLY wanted the fight, they could make it happen - Or at the very least, make it clear to the world who truly is the stumbling block.

    Thus far, neither has done so. So in the meantime, try and enjoy boxing.

    Are you serious? Should Mosley's next opponent have the right to look at his prenupt agreement to decide the cut?

    Look 50/50 to me is the only fair cut. Boxers involving much wider difference in revenue has been made 50/50. You can argue that PBF makes more until your face turns blue but we all know that the revenue in this fight will be in level unseen.

    Even if 40 million will be record for Pac, you make sound like what ever deal it is, it will BE A RECORD FOR PBF also. Even if it was 40/40/20 cut to winner and PBFs loses, I would bet PBF would still pocket what 50-80 million as the estimates for this fight be would at least double PBF vs Cotto.

    So don't make it sound like 40 million is a favor to Pac because it will be his largest pay day. Any deal for PBF vs Pac would be also be HIS RECORD payday.

    Hell I will even concede 55/45 to PBF. 40/40/20 to me is even acceptable. Even 50/40/10 in favor of PBF.

    But to say 50/30/20 is utter silly.

    no. people want their money upfront.

    No one of their caliber will let a garbage ringside judge determine how much $$$ they get, especially dealing with top rank.

    I'm not saying 50/30/20 is not fair.

    But you look have to look at the revenue and past earnings. Floyd has already made $50,000,000 with Cotto, while Manny has a career high of $25,000,000 with his PPV profits.

    At 50/40/10, Manny would be guarantee'd $15,000,000 more his highest payday, while Floyd would only make what he made for Cotto if he lost and he would get $10,000,000 more his highest payday and come home with $60,000,000 if he won.

    It isn't fair to do a 50/40/10 because one fighter is guarantee'd to make more no matter what happens, while Floyd only makes more his highest payday if he wins.

    60/40 is fair. This all assuming the fight has the fighters splitting $100,000,000 total with 3.0 million PPV buys. Oscar and Floyd split $79,000,000 with 2,400,000 PPV buys.

    You should watch Williams Lara and see why leaving money up to the judges is not a great idea..or try Whitaker Chavez.

    Even if pac agrees with the 40M next thing floyd will ask is blood testing the same night just before the fight. If pac agrees floyd will insist the fight be at 154. If pac agrees floyd will.... until both are at their 40s and people are only watching ufc.

    cool bro:good...im sticking to the thread topic..or slightly to it...

    I do not think 50/30/20 is fair to either side.:deal

    Floyd tried very hard to make the fight...he offered Manny $15,000,000 than he has ever made for a fight. Manny turned it down and demanded a ridiculous 50/50 split.:good

    No he won't...he uses the USADA testing policy..he does not twist or turn that in any way.

    If a blood test is randomed on the day of the fight then it is randomed...if it is not and it stops 3 days, or 4 days, or 18 days before the fight, then it stops 3 days, or 4 days, or 18 days before the fight.

    You have to keep the integrity of the tests.
