    On the other hand, how impressive is Marquez? Money and risk-taking isn't even on his radar.

    Floyd Jnr is one of my favourite boxers of recent years (If not my no.1 favourite). But this is ****ing ridiculous. This should be closer to 10/8 million split. Marquez is the smaller man, there's not doubting that whatsoever, all you moron's who claim there the same size coz Floyd started at Super/Feather are ****ing stupid. Floyd has matured up the weights at an early age and has been a Welter (and Light Middle) for a few years now. JMM is going through the weights trying to chase Pacquiao and the bigger fights out there. he's small for a Lightweight FFS. I dont have no gripes with Floyd taking this match up if it genuinely is a tune up for the proper Welter's or indeed Pacquiao but taking $15mil to fight a man 3/4 of his size and giving him $3.75 mil stinks. Floyd has some serious making up to do and the only way he redeems himself in my eyes is by fighting at least 3 of the following. Manny, Cotto, Mosely, Margarito, Williams.
    Nobody else (Barring this tune up if it does eventually take place) makes the cut here no more. 60/40 splits with Cotto, Mosely, Margarito and Williams and 50/50 with Manny. Arum wants to get ****ed too. If Floyd settles for 50/50 then Arum should suck his fat lungs up and agree. Sick to death of promoters stopping some truly wonderful fights from happening becasue they have issues with other fighters/promoters

    Frankly I'm impressed how JMM got PBF to a fight... Calling PBF out then giving him $15M purse and giving him almost all the advantages did the trick I think...
