    Exactly!

    Arum was offering Marquez less than what he pocketed in the Mayweather fight, and was asking him to share that with GBP.:nut:nut:nut

    It's a readily acceptable fact of life. GBP and Top Rank are pissed at each other right now and will not work together. Period. So there isn't a blaming Bob or blaming Oscar. Blame both of them.

    , cause didn't hear any negotiation between Arum and JMM's camp for the 3rd fight.

    JMM got 3.2 from Floyd fight.

    JMM asked for about 3.5 if i recall correctly (which according to Arum, he could ask for a little more) and GBP stuck another 2-3 on top of that. Arum reasoned that he lost to Floyd so why should he ask for more twice the money than he got against Mayweather and he was lumping them both together and saying JMM priced himself out.

    That statement is already deceptive because I'm sure JMM only had his request and GBP sticking their share on top of that is what killed it. Because once again, Bob doesn't want GBP to make money off of him. So JMM still wants to fight Manny and he will go to Bob and ask for only his money so GBP gets nothing and Bob makes big money off the third fight.

    Guessing if transfers to Top Rank the higher the chance he can get the Pac fight without anymore obstacle.

    Shane is getting a payday and Top Rank has options on his next fight and that's pretty much it. I doubt Marquez would get much different.

    None of those fighters are lucrative names. I don't understand how this makes JMM greedy? Guy wants a fight with the p4p king. Smart business decision.

    LOL this has got to be the most funniest thing I've ever heard haha. GBP is dipping their finger in but Marquez is asking for a 5 mills payday.

    Didn't you know Marquez LOST to Mayweather?? A fighter who LOST deserves LESS purse. When Marquez LOST to Mayweather, it made the fight LESS lucrative and get LESS revenue.

    Great news if true. Maybe Marquez does really want the Pac fight. They could get it done relatively easily without GBP in the picture. Marquez might even get paid what he wants without GBP taking from the pot. Hope it's true. Pac-JMM would be next and should satisfy just about everybody.

    I'd love Manny to have a 2 or 3 fights with May, and have a retirement match with JMM to cap it off ... win or lose with JMM it doesnt matter ...
