    so what if pac and his team rejected this 52-48 floyd proposal and would only fight floyd if it is split in the middle? would you blame pac again for not agreeing to this possible new demand? hypothetically speaking of course.

    Which only someone who is afraid would do, sure it is the standard , but no championship fight at welter has really ever used 10oz gloves .... And this one shouldn't either

    Yes, you are right. The fact that Cotto was top rank was the ONLY factor in play :roll:

    I would blame both of them although I think it's a fair offer, it would be up to Pacquiao's team to try and tempt Mayweather into a 50/50 by making concessions in other areas.

    People need to forget about who offered what last time and remember we're starting all over again here.

    Firstly, I'll bring up whatever I want and will probably bring this up 10 more times before the fight.

    Second, Mayweather sure made some coin facing Mosley so your argument just went down the shitter. :hi:

    Whatever 'wild cards' you believe Pac has, he probably needs to start playing them. Because as of right now his leverage from December is much less.

    And know dayum well that 'Fighter of the Year/Decade' nonsense will have ZERO impact on the negotiations for this fight. Keep it trill.

    Manny's "hand" in this poker game is already set. He doesn't need to project that he's playing them b/c of the fact that they are already on the table.

    You're right that his leverage is less than what it was but back in DEC, but back then Manny had the majority of the leverage. Now with Floyd's PPV numbers Floyd I feel has a little more but not by much.

    And if you don't think that PAC's STATUS in this sport won't have any bearings on negotiations then I guess you can believe that if you'd like. But Real Talk.....those accomplishments that are very recent will be a leverage point. Had Floyd been given those honors best believe that would be a card he would be playing.:yep Keepin it "trill":rofl

    Somewhere I smell a Hoax ...if they do fight ,its no way Pac can beat Mayweather ,too much on his plate ,he will be eaten alive....let Floyd enjoy his victory over Shane and his Family for another month or so ...Pac was giving Peace for his election and i'm glad he won ,let him do the right thing among his people ,but Floyd will make a decsion soon ...give him time....fighters are people who have families too.

    I swear, if Floyd comes out with a new demand or some other bull crap I will have a voodoo done on him. But seriously, this fight has to happen now.
