    Relax, it's an unverified story. None of the people who matter are talking about the fight. It's just fun watchin fanboys like Olu get angry because he thinks his "boy" is getting "dissed" because the little Filipino has the temerity to want purse parity.

    I come and go these days. If these two knob heads don't fight this **** will go on forever, long after they've retired. They'll probably end up arguing over who would have spent their imaginary purse better.

    Good:yep I can see what Olu is saying about Mayweather having the big PPVs, but I just think that the amount of money thats going around in this fight is incredible, so a 50-50 split and a chance to prove to everyone that you can beat Pacman and claim he is no 1 would be too hard to miss, wouldnt it??!!:? If he REALLY wanted the fight that is

    Don't you dare be so logical about this. Amateur accountants like Olu need their man to get the most paper!

    I just wanna know how Mayweather ended up on the wrong end of a 65-35 purse split against De La Hoya when he beats DLH in PPVs against all common opponents.

    Mayweather v Mosley sold more PPVs than two fights combined of DLH v Mosley.

    Mayweather v Gatti sold a healthy 365k PPVs whereas DLH v Gatti sold a surely disappointing none.

    No expert but lets be honest there must be some doubt in the loyal Pacman fans that he has been using PEDs during his rise up the weights. He may never be caught but there will always be the question mark over his last few fights on IF he did it or not use PEDs. By bringing in Olympic style testing it rules out every PEDs so fighters wont use them and it will clean up the sport.

    No more than any other athlete of similar standing.

    No it doesn't. Multitudes of atheletes have used PEDs in the Olympics. Some were caught, some weren't but we know now that they were doped.

    The problem in boxing is that it's actually impossible to have 'olympic-style drug testing' as there is no worldwide body to administer it.

    Clottey < Mosley
    Cotto > Marquez
    Hatton < Hatton - Floyd got a better version
    DLH < DLH - Mayweather fought up at 54, DLH was down at 47 for Pac
    Diaz = Baldomir
    Marquez > Judah

    It's all much of a muchness really.

    Pac decimated him, at his 'best' weight though (not at that point, but still) took the chances, annihilated him.

    Floyd arguably lost the first round and pushed Ricky away with his elbow for 9 rounds. Then stopped him. Didn't even spark him:nut

    You are the one to laugh at because whilst you may be a fan you know little about business or for bthat matter the business of boxing. Read the following article so that you can get some learning about boxing business. Take as a business school tutorial moron:
