    Bob Arum is a lowlife scumbag who thinks that he should make as much as the fighters in the fight. That is one reason that the fight will never come off. Not a big fan of Floyd, but can't say that I blame him for wanting to cut Arum out. Floyd is a businessman first and a boxer second and I guess he can't tolerate Arum making a big payday off of his fight. Also, hate to say it , but I think they are both scared of each other

    Manny is on board I offered to onlly take 24% of his cut so he was happy. Floyd is waiting on Al Haymon to crunch the numbers, Buffer will announce so we have that covered, but my investors and I have found a great spot for the Stadium we just purchase 500 arces of land ON the Vegas strip do you have your contractors licence? we are looking for a builder who could build a place like Cowboys stadium complete with state of the art everything but can build it in 3 months

    On March 13 2010 Pacquiao was supposed to fight Floyd in what was considered the most hotly anticipated boxing match up in recent history but the fight has yet to happen. Experts predict the bout will break the pay per view record of 3 million purchases resulting in $180 million in gross revenues, if it ever comes together. Of that $180 million Manny is guaranteed $25 million up front and could be entitled to an additional $25 million based on the PPV numbers. Pacquiao and Mayweather will split 50-50 whatever money is left over after expenses and promoters fees.

    It's been shown ad nauseum that Bob is the reason the fight has not happened and will not ever happen.

    HBO gets a cut of the PPV money. Not to mention there are investors who are willing to drop MAJOR coin just to be apart of this event...or at least they were interested at the peak of interest for this fight. $180 right now may be a bit much....but 2 yrs ago....that figure was more than realistic....

    Actually....Floyd's been the main cause for this fight not coming off for one reason or another. Bob hasn't made it easy....but Floyd has out right sabotaged the fight.

    :lol::lol::rofl:rofl:patsch

    Why are people even still writing in this thread? Why even entertain this ****? Close the damn thread, we should all be smart enough to know the two fighters are not splitting 180 million dollars. :verysad Some decent posters in here entertaining this, don't do it to yourself.

    I have to admit i was really interested in the fight, but i couldnt give a flying **** now. Pac isnt what he use to be and Mayweather will just box his way to victory. It means nothing now..

    Just face it, they're all a bunch of ****s.

    They should have open negotiations, then we'd find out who is lying in a few minutes.
