    This makes me sick. Go back home for 2 days, don't look at any boxing news, come back and this ***** is trying to now price himself out of the fight.

    What a joke.

    Are his fans really saying "he deserves more than manny, so if he doesn't take the fight it is ok!"
    ????????????????????????????

    all this 60/40 **** is just rumours anyways. The fight will happen. All the idiots saying Pac is scared of Floyd or Floyd is scared of Pac will look like douchebags but will just act like they never said anything.

    Because it's a major topic during negotiations between two camps and the general will make it a hot topic if that's the reason behind a huge fight possibly not happening. Tyson vs Lewis had its share of similar discussions and articles when money became a major issue. I don't think the newspapers or sites reporting are getting any % of what these guys are either.

    Are you seriously telling me Floyd made $40,000,000 fighting Mosley? If so, then DAMN, that just proves Floyd is entitled to the bigger purse!

    I can't believe he made as much as that though! $40,000,000!!! OBSCENE AMOUNT!

    actually the cable and satellite distributers take half the PPV money right off the bat.

    so 1.4M at 50$ adds only 35M$ to the pot that is split between the promoters, fighters, producers, trainers, etc.

    Its not complicated:

    Floyd was guaranteed 22.5M up to 1.2 million PPV buys, with a share of the PPV revenue for every buy above that.

    So 22.5M$ / 1.2M PPV = x / 1.4M PPV

    x = 26.25M $

    stupid logic anyway, if we applied it 5 or so months ago when it was pac vs cotto and mayweather vs marquez then pac would be getting more...

    AS PACQUIAO FANS SAID BEFORE THE CLOTTEY FIGHT BUT AFTER THE COTTO FIGHT WHEN IT FIT THERE ARGUMENT...

    YOUR ONLY AS GOOD AS YOUR LAST FIGHT..MAY BE UNFAIR TO COMPARE CLOTTEY AND MOSLEY FIGHTS....

    BUT *******S U SAID IT..UR ONLY AS GOOD AS YOUR LAST FIGHT...WHY DID YA'LL SAY THAT BULL$HIT WHEN IT FITS UR ARGUMENT BUT THAN WHEN IT DONT U TWIST IT..

    SO FUK IT UR ONLY AS GOOD AS YOUR LAST FIGHT LIKE YA'LL CLOWNS USED TO TELL ME WHEN I WOULD BRING UP NUMBERS...

    PACQUIAO IS ONLY AS GOOD AS 700K..FLOYD IS AS GOOD AS DOUBLE THAT..

    :hi:

    FLOYD SHOULD KNOCK HIM IN 11 ANYWAYS...FLOYD WILL USE THE FOOTWORK TO SLOW THE TEMPO OF THE FIGHT...PAC WILL GET CAUGHT COMING IN OFF BALANCE...THAN FLOYD WILL HAVE BEATEN A "TOP 10 ATG" BUT IT WONT BE GOOD ENOUGH AND MARTINEZ WILL BE THERE FOR THE HATERS TO CHOOSE AS THE NEXT NAME...ALWAYS A NEW NAME AFTER THE OLD ONE GETS BEAT

    wrong. Almost all the Pac fans said 50/50 was fair after the Cotto fight. Stop making **** up.
