    This is starting to get ridiculous, in my opinion.

    A day or two ago, we seemingly got Floyd saying he would fight Sergio Martinez if Martinez could get down to 150 lbs. But on the same day, I think, Leonard Ellerbe is alleged to have said that Team Mayweather didn't believe in catchweights.

    Now, just in the last 24 hours or so, it seems that we have heard Floyd say that a 50-50 purse split with Pacquiao isn't acceptable, but someone I'm guessing is an Al Haymon associate, David Levi, is supposedly saying that Floyd never said this.

    This "he said, he said" stuff was old when we heard it on A-Side Meff and "little yellow chump" vs "little young chump."

    Look, it might not be easy to keep the entire team's story straight every now and then, but two gaffes in like two days on this level?

    What was it that new Golden State Warriors head coach Mark Jackson used to say on his NBA broadcasts?

    Team Mayweather -- you're better than that.

    I hope so, anyways.

    Now might be a good time for a Money Team conference call to try to get the talking points pulled together.

    Look, I'm not Mayweather's top supporter, but even I feel bad for the Money Team when I see stuff like this.

    Amateur Hour. That's what goes through my mind.

    If that email has no validity, as the Floydettes are DESPERATELY praying, then I guess we can expect a tweet to silence the quack.

    Give it a few hours I say.

    As a team they are more united than the other side. Nothing compared to the holes in Pac/Arum's side.

    The last 2 by Arum have sunk Pac approval wise lower.

    Cut not being healed on may 5
    Stadium and 20,000 extra seats= $40 million in extra revenue

    This from a guy who has spent the past few years on ESB defending every Arum BS utterance as some Sun Tzu level masterstroke.

    Hilarious.

    Mayweather talking about fighting Martinez was a reply to someones comment. It doesn't mean that Mayweather was specifically looking to fight Martinez at 150.

    Your also jumping the gun on the 50/50 talk.

    But you know all this.

    If this were a game, I'd say "scoreboard."

    Instead, I'll just say this: "Video."

    This pauline girl is talking about double talk yet it was pac who came out in public and declared he was happy to receive the smaller purse thus giving mayweather the larger slice if it meant the fight could happen. Now pac is back tracking on those same spoken words.

    Floyd could be calling pac on his statement and pac is back pedalling, however hopefully both will just agree to 50/50. But if there is a problem pac created it by coming out in public saying he would accept the smaller purse in the floyd fight.
