    what was the reason for walking away from 50/50 and a 14 day cutoff blood test?

    Even at 50/50 Floyd would still make more against Manny then any other fight he has made, so the numbers do work. Who cares about percentages as long as the net number is right, 10% of $100 is more then 75% of $2
    but of course its another convenient excuse to hide behind. As a fan what do you care who gets paid what, you would watch it regardless

    Fair point but that was then we have moved on since then, believe it or not we now have colour TV's

    Too many people justifying a duck on old excuses that are no longer valid

    An excuse in the minds of *******s, a legitimate reason to not want to take that sort of deal as a business-minded man. :thumbsup

    it would still be a career high payday regardless of the percentages. The net number is the important bit.

    what about bob arums cut excuses...the stadium excuses...his excuses about floyd going to jail and not knowing if hed be licensed...all the nonsense hes spewed

    what about manny saying hed take less...then hangs up and says "50/50"-clearly not less....without making a counter? then when hes promoting bradley fight he says "lets fight for free"-oh really now? free?!

    there are more current, color tv, excuses pac has used too.....he walked from it 5 years ago and has never seriously tried to make it since....youve heard alot of smoke being blown about how hes willing to take less and take all these tests....then bob arum says "i dont even know who to call to make the fight".....have manny and arum ever sent over what theyre willing to do to floyd and his people? what concessions and money they are willing to take? no they havent....theyve just been telling people theyll take less and take tests.....the one time someone actually reached out to them he hung up

    Actually we're not even sure that it would be his higher payday

    If he took 50/50 with Pac. Let's say PPV's went to 2.5-2.8m/gate 18m

    Would it really be more than his take for the Canelo fight?

    He was guaranteed 41.5 million alone, Canelo 5m. Taking close to 90% of the purse alone without PPV.s

    i gave you reasons man.....when floyd reached out manny hung up and never countered....and not once since then has mannys team reached out to floyds people to even try....one second arum says he doesnt know who to call then the day he announced bradley pac 2 he said to a reporter "we wanna do the fight but we cant wave a wand...someone has to call us"....

    during an interview(im sure someone can post it for me) for bradley/pac 2 roach said that they walked from 50/50 and testing....but what was more telling was that he said that he thinks bob arum wants it to be pacs last fight....should tell you something......

    bob has been pushing floyd/schaefers/haymons buttons for years in order to alienate them....

    to this current day...on our current calendar.....bob arum/koncz/manny havent called anyone on the mayweather team in a long time.....they never once sent over a formal letter or made a call telling anyone what exactly their money demands and testing concessions would be

    they simply tell his fans "were willing to take less and take tests"....but they arent picking up a phone or faxing over a contract outline or anything ...telling them what they are willing to do......they are making no actual moves to make it either.....floyd aint makin any moves toward them either because hes fed up with their bull****

    when manny finished with the bradley fight...he could have said right in the ring "i want floyd mayweather...im willing to take less...im willing to take any tests....lets talk call my people...ill call your people"....instead he said the same old **** "talk to my promoter"....but i guess that prob goes way too far back on the ole calendar for ya huh?

    manny aint saying ****....arum aint sayin ****....aint makin any move towards floyd....just as much as floyd aint making a move toward manny....but at least floyd has reasons...because arum is a bullshitter and they are tired of him.......either way you can bet that when manny has his next fight signed....floyds name will pop up or come out of his mouth when hes promoting it

    They should just agree to a 60/40 split where the winner gets the larger split.

    More gayness from Floyd fans I see so they can continue to defend the queen of pathetic excuses
