    The confirmed offer of 65-35 sounds just about right to me, it seems pretty darn good at this point actually...also confirmed Arum turned it down...this is the stuff that does not allow me to join the "Floyd ducking" parade. It is fact that Team Pacquiao have now turned down 3 awesome offers from Mayweather. I know there are those on this forum who want to blame Floyd but I can't do it, can't lie to myself when the facts are right there for any honest person to see.

    We ain't talking about Nelo here.....we are talking about Manny. And we are talking about Floyd. Together........they need a bigger venue! If they want to MAXIMIZE their earnings.

    They can charge pretty much whatever they want if this fight gets made.....people will come out in droves to pack whatever venue they have and I guarantee there won't be enough seats in Jerryland to accommodate how many fans would be willing to buy.

    But 100,000 seats is a lot more than 20, 30 or 40,000 seats......that's a lot of extra cake to be made and pocketed by EVERYONE tied to the event.

    Yea.....Bob said AL would be willing to let Manny and Danny fight at 140. It's a good alternative knowing Floyd vs PAC is just a pipe dream and since it's a dream.....they still have to get back to reality and that's all about making ends.

    65/35....or 60/40.....it's still a LOT more than NOTHING. But again....those are just numbers we think are fair as fans. None of that matters if Floyd is making excuses for why this fight shouldn't happen "unless"........

    It shouldn't be "unless".....it should be.....I'm #1...your#2....I'm getting the lions share.....you deserve your fair share. Let's make it happen!

    None of this "take my test"......"leave your promoter"....."jump through this hoop" and whatever else Floyd throws into the mix that only jams up the process.

    So what? Bob said Berto made the most reasonable offer back in 2011 too but he still went with the shot to **** Mosley literally no one wanted as an opponent. He said Khan had to go back to Oscar and away from Haymon if he wanted any shot at being a Pacquiao opponent as well, and declared multiple times he wouldn't do business with him.

    Vargas is far more likely a next opponent because merit is secondary to promotional and managerial affiliation and always has been.

    Not true, Floyd gets 32 million per fight and his PPV numbers are trumping Manny right now. Let's not even joke about the Pac_Algieri numbers, those little figures Will never be released ro the public. You got to understand every time Pac takes **** fights like Rios and Algieri he is hurting himself at the negotiation table with Floyd. Floyd right now doesn't have to give up anything, he is the ODLH of this era, if Pac wants it he is going to have agree to Floyd's terms, Floyd doesn't have to agree to Arum's terms...32 million guaranteed says so.

    So what? No one ever thought Golden Boy and Top Rank would be willing to work together either. Times have changed and so has the landscape of boxing, promotional companies and of course the networks.

    Think positive.

    Top Rank and Golden Boy being willing to work together says nothing about Top Rank and Haymon being willing to work together. And it says even less about the willingness of Top Rank to work with either when it comes to Pacquiao opponents, where far more is at stake. Otherwise, Ali would already be a candidate for a Pacquiao fight since he's no less qualified than Algieri or Vargas.

    What Pac has is an in-and-out game where he gets in and attacks with combos then steps out of range. He doesn't get in there and camp out like the plodding Maidana.

    Bob Arum started that **** not Floyd. 50/50 and OST, Team Pac should of never had a problem with OST, Bob made it a problem and he keeps making problems. Of course Floyd would of been happy to make the fight had Manny not resigned with Arum, Mayweather-Cotto is direct proof of that. Bob Arum has now turned down 3 awesome Mayweather offers, he always find a reason to say no to the fight doesn't he?

    Oscar is laughin his ass off along with the HBO execs. They know they have Floyd in a bind.

    No way anybody Floyd fights with the exception of Pac, will be able to compete with Canelo vs Cotto.

    Showtime obviously will not pay for Floyd to fight an opponent that will cause them to clearly lose money. This is especially true if Floyd fights someone other than Pac on the May 5th weekend.

    HBO will profit while Showtime will get slaughtered and heads will roll. No way, Showtime execs will sign off on Floyd to fight a nobody.

    The pressure is on.

    You know, it all comes back to what it always does. Floyd can't stop runnin his mouth. He ran his mouth about the date and now he has to back it up like a big boy or be seen as the coward he is.

    He ran his mouth against Pacquaio, and now Pacquaio is callin him out.

    And don't get it twisted, Pacquaio is not the nice guy he portrays himself to be on tv. Pacquaio is a REAL gangster. Just like Roy Jones said, when it as told that Jesse Vargas would be Pacquaio's next opponent. Pacquaio gave Jesse a look like he was going to kill Jesse.

    That's the REAL Pacquaio.

    And Mayweather doesn't wanna see that guy. That guy is going to be unleashed on Mayweather's ass. There will be no glove tappin.

    Mayweather may even s hit himself in the ring.

    That's what happens when you keep talkin all that shlt.

    Now what?

    He has to back it up.

    He's in that corner.

    Floyd FANATICS are going to be out in FULL force trying to say they don't want the fight and Pac doesn't deserve the fight, etc etc.

    REAL boxing fans have to DEMAND that fight at all costs.

    Go to websites and even if the article has NOTHING to do with boxing, comment about the Pac vs Floyd fight and CALL Floyd a *****.

    If you see Floyd at a restaurant, say Pacquaio's NAME.

    No matter where you are what you're doing, talk **** about Mayweather until he fights Pacquaio.

    The fight will finally happen.

    FLOYD FANATICS DON'T WANT THE FIGHT!!!! AT ANY COST!!!!

    Look you dumb piece of ****. You talk like Pacquiao is undeserving and is miles behind Fraud Willnever. Yet the FACTS speak louder than your made up BULL-****. In the WW division Fraud and Pac are Ranked #1 and #2 in the P4P both ranked top 3 if not top 2 now due to the inactivity of Ward. Then add to that, that Pac is the next biggest grossing PPV fighter to Fraud. They are irrefuitable FACTS not made up.
