    Closer than when GBP sent a contract to Pacquiao in 2009? I don't think so.

    the closest it ever was was in 2009 when everything was agreed to, but then Pacquiao pulled out over the drug testing

    Kevin Iole good enough for you? (LINK)

    This article was written in 2012. IMO, Schaefer inability to 'recall' (note - he doesn't deny there was a 50/50 split proposed, only he can't 'recall' it) are an attempt to not be locked into that at this time (2012).

    thanks I appreciate what you have sent.

    RF is a Swiss banker by profession , its not likely he would miss something this important from the biggest fight in boxing history.

    There was no 50 / 50 split my friend , and never will be.

    peace,

    Then who sent Kevin Iole that 'fake' contract? It could only come from 2 primary sources: Golden Boy, who it wouldn't make sense for them to forward it with fake 50/50 split info, or Top Rank, which means they blatantly doctored up old contract to strengthen their insistence on a 50/50 split in 2012.

    So either that doc Iole has is real or fake. If real 50/50 existed in 2009. If fake, somebody put that isht in there, and it doesn't make sense for GBP to do that nor for Iole to make it up.

    Take your pick.

    i guess its ok to deny deny deny..

    so arum having a contract ON HAND thats a 50/50 split and this was common knowledge in 2010 they agreed to 50/50.. i guess deny deny deny when you know you been owned works for the weakest

    He didn't 'miss' it. He just claims he can't 'recall' it. It's doublespeak on his part (and IMO, unnecessary) to allow him to not be locked in to a 50/50 split commitment 18 months after the fact.

    Man Im not denying anything and I said I appreciate what you sent, it wasnt common knowledge and one of the key factors in negitiation is missed by a key stakeholder?

    It just smells fishy and I dont want anything more than to see this fight.

    peace,

    i dont understand why that would be funny to you. paq just supposedly went through it for rios bout, even though there isnt any prooff, i believe he did due to how weak he was

    Kevin Iole says he has a contract from GBP stipulating a 50/50 split.

    I'll take the word of a respected sports journalist over the word of some anonymous twat on an internet forum.
