    I'm one of those who never makes excuses :D . . . but what about the rest?

    Like I said . . . question is who wants who. The fighter who wants it more will have to give in. :yep

    Floyd is 24-7. Regular folk watch it like TV. I guarantee that added about 500k ppv to the ODH fight.

    We dont care about it, but the fighters do......
    .....so its going to be a huge obstacle at the bargaining table for the fight to get made......

    ......our best bet is to hope that JMM takes care of business and beats Mayweather Jr.....Marquez is a fighter who took the short end of the financial pie in both the Pacquiao rematch and this fight with Mayweather in order that the fights get made.....

    If JMM wins, he's now a fighter that is more than reasonable at the bargaining table.

    I'm praying that he does. JMM winning will means PBF can shut his mouth fight real 147 fighters or retire again . . . while the Pac/JMM III will be bigger. :yep

    i was pertaining to floyd fans like this one who acts like they will receive some share on his payslip.

    i respect your opinion on this site for i know that you are an objective guy who likes both floyd and now pac but as you are pissed on people hating on floyd, i am pissed on floyd fans shitting on pac just because he is the next possible opponent for floyd.

    What about the Pac fans who say Pac deserves more or 50/50, are they getting any of it?

    ......or JMM vs Mosley, if Arum is stubborn enough to demand Pac get significantly more than JMM.....last I heard Arum said, if JMM wins, Marquez would'nt get more than 25%......so bring on JMM vs Mosley in an all GBP promotion!:yep

    I dont think thats the case.....its Arum who keep s berating Mayweather's drawing power, though the figures point otherwise......and the Pac fans who keep insisting that Mayweather is scared of Pac because he's fighting JMM.:lol::lol::lol:

    No one cares about what either guys say now till Mayweather/Marquez is over with as all of the talks now are CLEARLY there to promote the future fight and keep fans more and more excited. You ought to know that if you know how boxing works, a very good example that can relate to it is Tyson/Lewis.

    ^^

    Didnt Arum also say that JMM has to fight Valero first inorder to get to Pac? What kind of split did JMM get for the second pac fight?

    I think one of the reason why Floyd outsell Manny in terms of PPV is because when Floyd fought ODH and Hatton, the economy is still not that down. On the otherhand, when Manny fought the two, we were already on a financial crisis. I think this makes sense somehow.

    Approximately 25% and maybe even a little less, which is exaclty what Arum thinks Marquez should still get!:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl
