    I said the past 3 years makes more sense...stating that this is the timeframe in which both guys were inequivocally the top 2 draws and this the most recent data. Soin that light, how is it arbitrary when doing so still provides a more accurate measure of drawing power? Going beyond that timeframe would involve considering outside variables such as the hoya factor, and pac still fresh off campaigning in the lower divisions. So this is arbitrary? ****in ay....

    Noone would ever do that. You CAN'T do "percent to the winner" because this isn't a casino...Investors need to knw their risk/return before investments are made...too much money involved to do that.

    That idiot PACMAN is the one that made this ridiculous proposal and his crazy minions believed it immediately.

    It's no point since we're obviously not going to agree on this. I just can't see how any argument, which excludes two recent and common opponents, could actually be beneficial by helping minimize these outside factors that you speak of and provide a more accurate representation.

    Its ****in shameful that money of all things is even an issue in a fight this big... the fact that neither guy respects the fans or their own legacy enough to compromise on this tells me everything I ever need to know about these two.

    So since they can't just "pick out" years...they should do common opponents..

    With common opponents, you can see what each guy brings to the table...we can argue over and over again about how many years it should go back, or which years etc etc...if you take 3 years only, it takes from Floyd's side..If I say 2 1/2 years only, it takes from Manny...

    Common opponents is the best way. There is no bias or anything; it's just the common opponents, amongst Floyd and Pacquiao.

    Because Pac doesn't bring REVENUE like Floyd based on common opponents, nor does he bring HIGHER PURSE'S LIKE FLOYD.

    Common opponents makes more sense then "picking" any year...GBP will not allow TR to just pick a year..they need to look at everything...So common opponents is the best way.

    They have 5 of them.

    Nah....Pac said he didn't need to have 50/50 of the PURSE....if it meant Floyd would finally make a real move to make this fight... Floyd moved the goal post by taking what Pac said and shitting on it by demanding ALL the PPV money.:rofl. It's like Floyd is saying "I don't want to fight Manny"...without actually saying the words.

    Bradley is a much tougher fight than Cotto. He hasn't lost, Cotto had been pounded twice, once albeit illegally. PBF has sat on his arse for five years, doing nothing, retiring. Of course when he fights he gets bigger ppv because it is so rare.

    PAC is the fighter making the real fights. They need each other for the ppv and the legacy. This is a fight for legacy, they should do it and all proceeds go to charity, then they can't complain about who gets the most.

    Because Arum is the epitome of greed and evil, and Floyd is the worlds biggest narcissist, we have the situation where one of the greatest fights in the history of boxing will go up in smoke.

    Where in history do we have two atg fighters, pfp 1 and 2, fighting at around the same weight and in their primes (well three years ago maybe)?

    Too bad their greed is inversely proportional to the size of their nuts.
