    Some of you people are so dopey it's beyond belief! I think Floyd whoops Manny unless manny comes fully charged like against cotto or diaz, even then I favour Floyd 65/35. Now as far as this "Manny makes 6 or 7 million, how can he ask for x amount" argument - its like this, TR only declare 6 or 7 million to the commission for tax purposes, Manny gets most of his money through other clever accounting mechanisms (I work for E & Y in London by the way - look it up if you don't know what that is, apologies to those who do, don't mean to be condescending) - big business does this all the time to avoid paying tax, its all legal and above board - but is it ethical, meh? Floyd seems to straight up declare his cut to the commission each time, he must have some different accounting system for tax in place relative to manny and top rank (I don't know the US tax system very well, the UK system, I could school you on, its what I do). As far as the split between Manny and Floyd, like Schaffaer said, let the numbers decide (in terms of ppv's sold) - even then I don't think they would agree upon a starting point - Floyd would say lets start from the Oscar fight, TR woud say lets start from when Manny starting going on PPV (the numbers are out there). Anyway, can some of you dopey posters stop it with the nuthuggrey of both fighters - its border line creepy!

    Good for his opponent.

    Mayweather on the other hand took a 80% against Mosley.

    A true mark of a good person.

    Well they pay their promoter a cut as every other boxer out there does.

    And who says it's 30%?

    This all originated from Floyd's mouth, quoted from one of his typical jealousy fueled hate rants claiming Pacquiao pays his promoter 27% of his purse. Now that seems to have been rounded up to 30% to make it seem worse. Still no-one has produced a copy of a contract to prove this, but it continues to be stated as fact

    Bob Arum has been ripping off fighters one way or another for decades, why would he stop with Manny..

    Manny is getting robbed BLIND. Remember how Arum told Manny to fire that Accounting firm that Manny hired to investigate Top Rank.
