    Pac-Mayweather negotiations are over.

    Pac's moved on, Mayweather has to do the same with an opponent like Mosley itching at the chance to fight him.

    60-40 is fair, but so is 55-45.

    50-50 will be tough for Mosley and GBP to justify, but if Mayweather doesn't fight him he will be crucified by everyone barring his most loyal fans, so might just have to eat some pride and accept it.

    Why should he? He can make triple the amount at 50/50 against Pac.

    Mayweather clearly did, he compromised to 14 days and Pac's excuse of why 14 days is not good is stupid and not good enough in itself.


    If Mayweather said 24 days was fine, what do you say to that?

    :lol:

    Look at the top 8 list of WWs on Ring Magazine.

    But that would demand would be stupid considering the only thing that stopped their fight was a difference of 10 days.

    Mayweather has to fight Mosley. If not, and this is the first time I've said it, he is a cherry picking son of a *****.

    I doubt Mosley will demand 50-50. He has always been willing to let popular fighters take the lion's share just to get a fight with them.

    But if GBP do then what's Mayweather gonna do? If he backs out he will be seen as having ducked the two biggest fights out there for him when they seemed certain to happen. That will then give Pac the upper hand in negotiations for a future fight with Mayweather as Floyd will be desperate for the fight.

    He needs to fight Mosley, even for 50-50, no ifs and buts about it.

    If he can wait for Pac by denying Mosley 50/50 that's fine.

    How did he duck Pac? Who pulled out of negotiations?

    Pac won't be retiring for a long time.. he's becoming the NEW De La Hoya...
    Boxing needs a few superstars.. he's basically the top one (all opinions on him aside)...

    I see him fighting several more times.. he's physically able, so I see him going on until he gets totally beat down or something like that...

    If he doesn't fight Mosley after GBP went public with negotiations for a Mosley fight being underway, most of the public opinion that was on his side in the Pac saga will turn against him

    he will be seen as having ducked both fights, that s almost a given

    So him trying to fight Pac is not good enough?

    You're demand is stupid considering he's proven himself a WW.

    You speak nonsense.

    Beating the ex lineal and current lineal champion is not good enough.

    Gotcha.

    I'm not saying it's golden but he's proven himself at WW. What that poster speaks is nonsense.

    So everyone who has beat baldomir and judah are top fighters?
    I am sorry to say it man, but Baldomir vs Judah was a filler fight for the floyd/judah match up that went wrong.
    We all know it. No need to be in denial about what happened.
