    i think at this point 40% is the best pac can possibly get. would not be suprised if it will be argued to 35%

    pac deserves 50-50 this is a mega fight that need both fighters pac has 6 fights over 1 mill same as mayweather and has been similar in numbers except for canelo fight

    60-40 I am not happy but fine just make the fight once pac breaks mayweather in for the first time things will change in the negotiation table

    Floyd : i want 80-20! Pac gets the minimum!

    Team pac : 60-40

    Moonves : sounds like a plan. Make it happen.

    Floyd : yes master.

    Support him or not?

    I don't see a legit reason to back him after Manny has agreed to everything...

    There have been rumored talks about those two negotiating to fight regularly since 2009 and it hasn't happened. Why would anyone stop supporting today?

    Because Manny has signed EVERYTHING OFF and agreed to EVERYTHING?

    Because Floyd is backed into a corner where everyone from the top execs to his own fans have had enough of his cherry picking?

    30% is what he deserves?

    As if Floyd can make huge money without fighting Manny.

    What were the Maidaina PPV's?

    Floyd makes huge money when he fights opponents with huge followings.

    Take them out of the picture, and they flop.

    Oscar, Cotto and Canelo were all huge fights.

    But When he fights the Guerrero's of the world, they drop significantly.

    The fight between him and Manny will be the biggest grossing fight of all time, with atstronimical figures.

    Take either guy out of that equation, and those huge figures disappear.

    Floyd can't make the same purse that Manny would bring, fighting anyone else.

    Therefore, 40% (if it's true) is more than fair.

    Just quoting Manny's last PPV figures is a joke!

    Pacquiao deserves 45%, won't be surprised if he accepts 40% to make this fight. Anything less than that and I'll be shocked if Pacquiao accepts.

    If Pac agreed to 40% then this shows his good will and eagerness to get this done. If Floyd declines 60-40 he is completely delusional and has no excuse.

    Exactly!

    Great post!

    The other thing I disagree with, is that I think it will gross more.

    But then that just strengthens the points that you've made.

    considering P4P rankings , and more importantly PPV numbers floyd is the clear A-SIDE ? yes pac does great numbers (not so much anymore) but you can easily argue at this point 35-65. yes floyd aient going to pull anywhere over 2m buys with anyone other then pac but he is getting big paydays regardless the way he looks at it is this

    "these guys had 50/50 in 2009, they turned it down over testing issues, now his past his best, taken a hit in both record wise and ppv marketing wise and NOW he wants the fight?" id bend em over a barrel to

    We're not really sure who's signing everything or who's accepting everything either. Everything you're reading now are nothing but rumors and supposedly leaked information as far as I'm concerned. When this is officially signed, then we can talk about who really accepted everything.

    Mayweather isn't back into any corner, that's just silly talk to be honest. Last I checked there were hordes of fans ready to cheer on for a Khan fight if the Pacquiao fight doesn't come through.
