    Who said Manny is only getting 7.5 million for Bradley?

    And no PPV money is simply not reasonable. No fighter has ever negotiated demands based on his opponent's relationship with his promoter.

    I'm not saying that they don't...but whatever the case, Pac does not make more than 20 million per fight. Floyd made 40 million with Mosley and 45 million with Ortiz. He would only get about 50 million in a 50/50 split. The record is 52 million set by Oscar in 2007; Floyd is expected to break that record without fighting Pacquiao.

    By what your saying, Pac would double his biggest payday (actually 5x that if you look at the documented highest purse), and Floyd would take a paycut from the Cotto fight, and only make 5 million more than when he fought Ortiz (a guy who was never on a PPV)...From a business standpoint, that makes 0 sense.

    Oscar and Floyd split 78 million Oscar took 52 and Floyd took 26 million.....Thats on 2.4 million buys...Pac-Mayweather will do 3 million buys, let's say. That means they will probably split around 90 million, but let's just say 100 million.

    Pac does not make more than 7.5 million (as is documented by the NSAC) anyways..why can't Pac just take 5X his normal guarantee and twice his 20 million he normally makes (at best 20 million)?? Perfectly fair deal...greedy against the fans on Floyd's part..but that isn't the argument here at all.

    His career high payday (against much bigger names than Bradley:rofl) is 7.5 million. The NSAC (3rd party) said it.:deal

    so you don't agree that given the same negotiations one would naturally ask for the maximum he can get? you think he ought to be slapped around for even wanting to ask for more?

    Floyd isn't budging...He did not budge for 2 years on the drug test and never has....Pac simply accepted and then thought of another excuse to use (jmm 4)...

    To your question, he should learn from past events...Floyd didn't budge off the drug testing, he won't budge off the split. Pac eventually agreed to the drug testing and he'll eventually agree to the split.

    In the meantime, Arum is making JMM 4 in November.:rofl

    Can u show me any documents that proof that Floyd really made 40 Million for his Ortiz fight?

    Do you guys think that Al Haymon, Golden Boy, Ellerbe and the Harlem Hot Boy work for free?

    Manny makes like 7 - 9 Mills. 40 mill is pretty good, considering that he ant gonna make that type of money any were else.

    This fight should be an even split. With first the drug testing and now this it kinda feels like he doesn't want to make the fight.

    Floyd said PAC should only be offered 40 millions because his fights doesn't even come with free rooms, buffets, and limo rides from the airport...unlike Floyds where his come with everything.

    First, Pacman is going to take the Mayweathers to court and sue them for Defamation so badly that Floyd will swear his bank account was given a financial enema. Then, after Pacman has broken Floyd in court, Pac and Arum will go to work and get a sweet deal for the fight. Them, Pac will break Floyd in the ring.

    Hang on Floyd...it's all downhill from here!

    Not sure but its been suggested that a lot of that goes to Arum anyway.
