    Ok id like to start by saying im not questioning this im just gonna put it out there and see what comes back here !!!!

    You have Floyd who has just dominated Shane Mosley and previously dominated a blown up punch bag (no disrespect to JJM or Floyd there i think the whole boxing community is in agreement with that) and Manny who is off the back of a 1 sided largely un eventfull UD and a destruction of a fighter who actually beat Mosley .............

    Then there is the PPV argument ............

    If Floyd is calling the shots how and why ????

    Thoughts ............

    Because boxing is all about money.

    And Floyd brings more money to the table that Pac.

    It's 100% truth. Floyd brings in the money and if those PPV sales are huge, there's really nothing Manny camp can do about it. Floyd already thought he was the bigger draw but agree to 50/50 the first time. No way he fights for less than 60/40 this time around.

    Mayweather is calling the shots, because he's the best fighter in the business, brings in the most money, and gets the most PPV buys.

    Most people admit the Cotto-Mosley fight was close and some felt Mosley won or the fight could have gone either way.

    He also said PBF is the best fighter on the planet.

    Pac beat him into retirement, ODH felt he won the split decision over PBF, and now PBF is the best??????

    100% sure hes just saying that b/c hes the promoter

    oscar is just positioning himself to negotiate from the best angle.
    i honestly think neither one deserves more than the other as they can both make the most money for the other.
    50/50 and 19 day cutoff for blood testing would be fair.
