    you just have told us the reason why pac deserves the bigger or at least an equal share with floyd. stop with this purse percentages unless you are his manager or floyd himself.

    You've already lost your credibility...The only good thing you've called is the Mosley KO over Margo

    Anyone reguardless of drawing power has always made their highest purse of their careers ...

    The same goes for Pacquiao ...

    He doesn't have to make a big percentage of the purse ... 25% will eclipse the purse he made fighting Hatton and DLH.

    Floyd made 25% off of DLH and still made 25m ... the same goes for Pacquiao

    Hatton was the draw against PBF but he still didn't make that big of a percentage against PBF.

    Without Pac, Floyd couldn't sell **** to flies.

    He needs a big draw like Pac. I bet the Marquez fight does not do high PPV numbers and if it does its because everybody will be tuning in to see if Mayweather gets his face smashed in.

    Most people I know watch Mayweather because they want to see him get his face smashed in not because he is some big draw

    Americans are more thrilled to see Pac fights than boring running Money May. Make a survey among Americans and Pac will surely top their list.

    I read in the news that American Idols, David Cook and David Archuleta, fell in line to have photo-op w/ Pac. I don't think they or anyone of them will do the same thing to Floyd. :deal

    Both are #1 P4P fighters. It is but proper that respect should be given to each fighter. 50-50 should be just right for each. Floyd is no dela Hoya who has generic built in following (boxing and non-boxing fans). This purse sharing that you are proposing is ridiculous.

    WHY DID FLOYD COME OUT OF RETIREMENT?

    Possible answer/s:

    1. To get back the P4P title? How? Fighting Pac or fighting the guys he ducked?

    2. There is no no. 2.

    Dude. Pac is hot right now partially because of how he has out performed Floyd with common opponents. The fact that Pac is smaller and has come so far up in weight has helped him get to where he is presently.
