    Manny stood to make a lot more than 40 mil in 09..

    Arum paid Clottey off so good he was able to take a 4 year vacation. :lol:

    :good
    the ones who defend Floyd 'no matter what' seem to think that pac losing to marquez gives him a pass
    also, anyone who thinks pac was 'at fault' for turning down a flat 40mill (as some do) are in denial as to how even that fight should have been sliced

    Speaking of denial...

    Ya'll deny it was Pac's fault for turning down a 5050 split and a 14 day cutoff in 09

    The even split was manny's demand..lol


    Stop skipping over that and jumping to the 40 mil offer:deal

    PAC would put him in a coma that's why Floyd doesn't want the fight, watch the vids of Floyd after manny vs cotto, he's terrified.

    i'm jumping on the 40 mill because that was Floyd's 'mistake' in all of this.
    just as the drug testing was pac's fault (as well as his passive role in negotiations)

    if you've read any of my posts on this fight, I always lay blame at both of their feet

    speaking of skipping over things...it's not the base 50/50 split that was the problem, as you well know. it was the PPV cut

    Why do we care whether he fights a guy who knocked out by a past prime, grandpa Marquez.

    clearly you didn't read my first post in this thread :good
    the fight doesn't mean as much as it did 4 years ago, but it's still worth something
    and if a fighter losing 1 fight takes him off the 'Floyd sweepstakes' table, then I would suggest to you that the ONLY fighter in and around Floyd's weight class who this seems to apply to...is manny pacquiao

    The 5050 split in 09 included the PPV cut.:deal

    There is no need to start lying.


    If Manny didn't like the 40 mil flat fee WHY DIDN'T HE NEGOTIATE instead of handing the phone off to Micheal Kroncz like a girl?????

    You can't blame Mayweather because Manny is a child that can't hannel his business.

    Building a temporary stadium and needing time to gather investors from dubai isn't coming from Floyd's camp.

    Don't forget that Floyd had to leave Arum in order to make the Oscar fight....and Cotto had to leave just to make the Floyd fight.

    ARUM has developed a pattern of killing fights...why ya'll can't see that is beyond me.

    Pac was placed in a coma by floyd's tuneup.

    Arum KNOWS Manny can't beat Floyd...if he felt he could he wouldn't make excuses about building stadiums and shi..t like that.

    do you always think that people who have a different point of view than you are lying...?
    and how does pac passing the phone to someone else to even the deal liken him to a girl?

    it doesn't matter if homer simpson negotiates on pac's behalf, but you're making excuses for pac wanting a fair deal...

    and once again...it doesn't matter if homer simpson KO'd pac...this has nothing to do with pac fighting Floyd - especially when the fight mattered most

    The thing is though Pacquiao arguably lost three fights in a row before fighting Rios, the only reason there is any interest in this fight now is the narrative that Mayweather is scared but beating Pacquiao doesn't mean much. When the fight mattered most the appeal was the Pacquiao looked like an unstoppable typhoon and Mayweather was the unbeatable former king, Mayweather is still for the most part unbeatable while Pacquiao has looked bad for a few years. Mayweather-Pacquiao should happen just to say it happened but as far as this super mega fight that is long over with

    They're like toddlers throwing tantrums arguing that they don't want what they should want. It's hilarious.

    Maybe they are protecting Floyd?
