    he aint my favorite guy but throughout his career stephan A. has always been respected for calling out the truth as he see's it. many may not like his opinion but could never fault his honesty. even when it didn't serve him best he still called it as he saw it.

    above everything else, that's why he's still around, is because he'll always give his honest opinion regardless of what criticism he'll get.

    I am trying to understand why tards are getting so excited over this.

    Manny laughed at the thought of Mayweather beating him. Well what the hell is he suppose to say or do?

    Manny now says he will test on the day of the fight. Okay.

    The only thing that is going to get this fight done is Arum contacting Shaefer and getting in a room with the mediator and them ****ers getting to work. Project what the fight might make and how that so called 55/45 split looks for both guys, and how it looks for the promoters and get this **** done. Hell that 45 split for Pac may be right around 40 million.

    What I do know is that they not going to make 50 million plus a piece. Not now. Maybe years ago but not now.

    manny makes NO demands coz he wants to fight
    PBF makes all the demands coz for some reason he doesn't want to take the fight.

    NOW THAT THE DRUG TESTING and PURSE ISSUE HAS BEEN agreed.

    I REALLY WONDER what ELSE WILL FMJ say or NEW DEMANDS that will come up?! You are a certifed FMJ what else do you think FMJ will add on his list of demands?! :cool:

    Beating up somebody or doing something against the LAW will only show that he'd rather go to jail again than meet PAC so floyd don't mess up with the law again ok?!

    I really wonder what's next?! I lost my urge! and I'm on vacation will not be accepted again nor the I need a tune up fight :yep

    Never thought of that,
    Has there ever been a demand from Pacquiao?
    Not from Bob Arum... just from Pacquiao?

    How has a purse split been agreed to when no negotiations have taken place? What the hell does a 55/45 split look like? These guys are not going to make 50 million a piece. That ship sailed a long time ago. You want to talk about urge but you don't want to talk about a Stadium.

    They should have asked Pac why they didn't fight May 5th and why he didn't make Arum do his job.

    Maybe there is but I don't recall but bottom line the demands of PACQUIO (if there was!) was not much of an issue. Bigger issue was that of the drug testing but it PACQUIO already agreed on the demands of FMJ regarding drug testing and money matters...

    I wouldn't be surprised if fmj will say.. HE WANTS A BIGGER PURSE THAN 55/45 sharing. :lol::rofl

    How about this. How about Pacquiao demand his promoter to actually enter into negotiations with Shaefer so that they can work this **** out. No point in going back and forth bc they all are at fault.

    Its easy to say 60/40 or 55/45 but until you get in a room and start looking at numbers and estimating things then all the talk is pointless.

    **** Floyd and Manny with their interviews and comments. Let the real businessmen get in the room and make this **** happen. Hopefully Manny gets by JMM which I don't think will happen but we will see. The best thing for them to do is start the talks now just in case and get that **** out the way.

    Putting pressure on Floyd is the right thing to do. Pac is being more than reasonable with agreeing to 45/55.
