    he's preparing everyone for their next negotiation.. you know, just so everyone would say he won't accept 50/50 from the start.

    Pac is this newly formed christian who been studying the bible hard lately, I hope he reads the parts about greed, so when floyd offers him 40 million in his back pocket he won't turn his nose up at it again.

    you say that as if bob arum ever returned a phone call to a golden boy president the last time....as if arum mentioned floyds name after the marquez fight...as if arum didnt immediately start talking about a 4th marquez fight....as if arum didnt say manny cut couldnt fight may 5th because he had a cut...and because they couldnt construct an outdoor stadium in time...as if arum didnt say that he didnt know if mayweather was going to have a license to fight

    I wouldn't call it a "duck", Mayweather is just being greedy as usual.

    Let's say the Cotto/Mayweather negotiations broke down because Mayweather demanded more money, surely to ******s like you it's a "duck" too.

    You need to stop trolling for a change. Mayweather is offering Pacquiao a fixed $40million with everything else including money out of the PPV goes to Mayweather.

    Wrong! Floyd can demand as much money as he wants against Cotto cause Cotto is not at his level popularity-wise PPV-wise Marketability-wise and all the wise in the world. While Pac is different. He is at Floyd's level maybe even bigger globally.

    Otherwise if Floyd would like to fight PAC he would fought him already
    now willingness no fight.

    Both Mayweather and PAc are arguably #1/#2 p4p the last decade
    and Cotto is not. So Cotto taking less than 50% of share is fair, asking
    PAC taking less than 50% is insulting and a PURE case for "ducking".

    As a floyd fan, I can only explain it like this- both guys are milking the suckers who buy their ppvs for all they can. Floyd knows a whole bunhc, maybe 1-1.3 million donkeys will buy whatever fight he makes. So he puts out an unfair offer, but to him its fair because it would be the price that he would be willing to take to forego fighting other fights and continuing to make millions and millions every fight.

    Arum is the same, he knows they can keep making tons of money and so he won't give that up unless its at an over inflated price. they both want to continue to build up and win so that they can make as much money as possible and then fight and if they both continue to win they'll sell a ton of ppvs.

    I will absolutely boycott both guys and all fights promoted by top rank until they fight. Everyone who wants the fight should do the same, or you can blame yourself just as much as either.

    And you need to get off pac's dick. 40 million is a heck of a lot of money for a guy who has never received that kind of purse before.

    That was not the question the thread starter was asking. What you stated is a different debate. I believe 50/50 is fair to get this fight finally done, but I also understand floyd stance and why he believes he deserves more.

    I think floyd's ego will disagree with you. I really believe he thinks he that big and that damn special.

    This :deal

    You *******s can't have it both ways...either he is that cocky and greedy and he really feels he deserves the bigger share...or he is just ducking Pac and using the money as an excuse.

    The problem with *******s argument is that they have it both ways:huh

    First of its called Pride and Principle. Second, why did Floyd turned down the $50 guaranteed to him that team countered if $40 M is "a heck of a lot of money"? :patsch
