    Manny should take 80-20.
    Floyd knows the money side to the business very well and he knows he doesn't even have to take the rematch, Floyds got not nothing to prove he won the fight simple as that.
    If manny wants the rematch the ball is even further in floyds court this time if thats even possible.

    I say the same split 60/40. It takes two to sell the fight and Pacquiao's name is worth the cut. No way in hel could mayweather or Pacquiao make the kind of money they did without each other. Pacquiao deserves to get paid, now with that said mayweather deserves the A side of things and just about anything he ask for. At this point for mayweather to rematch Pacquiao it would be a mercy plea to help him out money wise.

    I'm not saying Pacquiao needs the money, but Pacquiao lost and mayweather made it look easy. I'm not even sure they could sell this fight again, and it certainly wouldn't be anywhere near as big. Pacquiao couldn't even admit he lost, then gave excuses. Mr. Humble Pacquiao could at least admit defeat," yes he beat me I wasn't at my best tonight " would have been acceptable in my book. I don't see Pacquiao getting a rematch and he certainly doesn't deserve it on any aspect. From the way he fought to the way he acted post fight. But if they were to rematch, Pacquiao deserves his fair cut because his name sells.

    Thing is Floyd wouldn't fight him if he did. The best scenario, the only chance for a rematch is for it to be low risk, high reward. Floyd will want low risk for his last fight. So, best chance is right now. Floyd feeling comfortable and that Pacquiao is easy, manny to not need surgery so sept works, and then for Pacquiao to succumb to a lower split.

    In Floyd's mind it's low risk highest reward.
