    dont be so concerned withthe numbers...of course those are exaggerated...im talking about how he says why shouldnt Floyd and Pac get larger sums when they are the ones taking the risk and providing the entertainment...keep in mind without them thier is nothing....so i agree they both deserve a huge sum of whatevr is made.

    now whatever the numbers are....i dont know...but the principle of his argument is a good point to me.

    y shouldnt the fighters get more? especially in an event that will break big records and make huge money....they should get huge sums.

    think about it....baseball, basketball, football players all get huge contracts...now granted their broken down over the years but the top dawgs are getting paid what they are worth.

    these two certainly rank up their...for them to fight would bring crazy money....and they should receive their worth.

    Since pacs come out with "I'll do all random testing" i havent heard Arum say anything about the subject.

    If Pacs words means nothing and after the negotiation process it comes out that pacs team dont want it then I'll Flame Pac for it, as would 95% of boxing fans.

    I just dont think hes dumb enough to back out of his word because of his promoter, specially on this subject..

    you can't possibly believe in a actual hand to hand combat sport that an event of this magnitude and this much money to be made....that these two fighter shouldnt get more of whatever is made.

    I agree they both should get a huge share of whatever the total is.

    mayweathers and *****s alike should be talking about percentage and not values.

    Arum is really flexible depending on your agenda. You could use the "yesterday i was lying, but now.." if you wanna discredit whatever he says, or you could believe what he's saying instead of Pac if you're a *****.:yep

    Nobody in his right mind is willing to give Floyd a $100M for one fight. The mofo wouldn't take anything less than $50M vs. Pacman.

    so let me get this str8....you dont believe they should get their fare share of the purse for being the main attraction to such a huge event?

    or do you just like saying *****? cus you still have yet to offer anything or counter anything.

    again y shouldnt they get their fare share of this event? Im not sayin 100 mill off the back...but lets say the numbers are say 100,000 dollars...i believe Pac and him should get 25 a piece thats half to the fighters....who are the attractions.
