    He's greedy, $15M is too much since JMM only getting $3M plus

    He doesn't deserve $15M. He's not a major draw, not a cash cow.

    $15M is the correct purse for a low-risk fight being a 4 to 1 favorite

    $15M is just right for the 80/20 purse split with JMM's $3M plus


    Vote in the poll and discuss...

    Is this fight really a 20/80 split?

    From what I've read is PBF getting $15 mil and JMM getting close to $4 mil ... For a 20/80 split, that "close to $4 mil" is actually $3.75 mil ...

    I think Team JMM is too dumb in accepting this ridiculous purse split... Being Mexico's numero uno boxer and current #2 P4P, JMM deserves better...

    PBF is a heavy favorite to win... I pity JMM, he's there for the money... $3.75 million will be his highest purse so far...

    Hard for them to ask for more when he's getting a career payday.

    A super featherweight should Never be in with a welterweight - not even Duran v Leonard was that big a leap

    Why the hell did JMM take this fight?

    Floyd truly makes me sick. I hope Manny DESTROYS him

    Team JMM is too dumb??

    Part of the problem is JMM's promoter GBP who gave blessing to this unfair, mismatch fight... GBP should have pushed Mosley vs. PBF fight... I have no idea why GBP favored JMM over Mosley?? Mosley coming from a great win over Margo deserves an award from GBP... a PBF fight...

    Now GBP into major troubles... PBF-JMM not selling well and Mosley very desperate to have a big fight...

    :patsch floyd and jmm are basically the same size, quit your bitchin. floyd's best days were as a junior lightweight aka super featherweight and he's been fighting people bigger than him since 2002.
