    The real fans care about the fight & the purse is just a hot topic for both sides to debate!! Now Pac fans say it's a duck ploy by Mayweather but can't concede that it was Pac who did the ducking back in january when the purse was 50/50 and the drug test had the same deadline which Pac agrees to now but wouldn't agree too back then!!:huh

    What kills me is the big debate was who was a bigger draw & it's obvious who is yet some unrealistic fans out there can't accept it!! Another thing here is as a fan I just want the fight & 50/50 is perfectly fine with me, but we're the fans not the fighters & ego's, pride etc etc comes w/all that. Take the 2 fighters & look at there last fights, PPV's, and purses & basically Pac isn't in a position to make demands! All he can even begin to think is 50/50 because he has no grounds to ask for 1 cent more! Mayweather on the other hand has plenty of room to talk and this is just goin on facts & #'s!! Face it fans... he's has Pac trumped! As a business man I wouldn't agree to split a purse w/someone I just outsold again, & made twice as much $$$ then in the last 2 fights!!:nono

    As far as some previous agreement of 50/50 I don't remember there being a purse agreement for this time around!:huh How ppl can claim Floyd doesn't want the fight is pathetic!! Floyd went ahead w/Pac demands in Jan. & all Pac had to do was agree to blood test which all the sudden now he does!! That was a ploy by Pac's camp to by time. They took a gamble & waited to see what the Floyd/Mosley fight would do & it back fired! They went from looking pretty even to now lookin at an opponent who once again proved he's a bigger draw & who is now the WW king so they really hurt themselves & put themselves in this position!! Who the hell keeps claiming Pac is the champ??

    I say fight but if Pac was in Floyd's position he'd definitely ask for more along w/Arum & Roach & his fans backing his position 100%!!

    Floyd Sr was throwing Willy's name out there in the ESB interview... Same **** as Pac throwiing out Cotto. Just a diversion during negotiations.

    Does anyone realize how many million 40% is? I'm not defending Floyd, but if Pacquiao really wants the fight, what's wrong with taking 40% and making at least 35 million?
