    At the moment 50/50.....but after the PPV numbers are released Manny may have a stake for more of the pot. I hope his numbers are under Floyd's in order to give this fight more of a chance to be made. If Manny passes Floyd's PPV numbers Floyd's ego won't allow him to be the one taking the lesser amount.

    Tiger Woods left one of Floyd's fight and it wasn't even finished yet.

    :lol:

    Logically it's Mayweather since he's obviously the bigger attraction but I would say Pac definitely deserves more for what he has been doing lately.

    Wow, poll results are shocking. I thought most would be split between the two or voting "equal". I voted "equal".

    Equal. Manny in reality deserves more because he's the more exciting guy but no one can sell a fight like Floyd.

    Who cares how fast the fight sells out. What really matters is the number of PPV buys and everyone knows that. The live gate to a fight only nets about $9 million. Floyd has always dramatically outsold Manny in PPV numbers which is concrete evidence that he generates more income. Saturday was Manny's chance to prove that he has coe up and that he can also sell. If he broke a million buys, then by all means lets make 50/50.

    Roach and Arum both said that they will consider a 50/50 split so Floyd has no excuses. Just too bad all the Floyd huggers are making them for him before he gets a chance too. They have baited Floyd into a corner and with all the options, 50/50 split, calling him out nationally, saying the phone lines is open for to nego, Floyd has no choice but to accept or be label a coward. Fans have caught on to his bs so now he has nothing to say or nowhere to go. Sad but true.

    Arum already said 50/50 is reasonable. PAC would take less for the glory of it all, he has all the money in the world from the last two fights. PAC would take less but no decent promoter would allow his top fighter to do so for a fight this big.

    50% for Floyd

    I just cant see Floyd taking 50%

    Who ever brings more people to buy the PPV should get more money.

    50/50 I is only fare. Although Manny has lost fights in the pass, I think he's done more then enough to get an equal share of the pie. I'm not even a Pac fan, but right is right. Mayweather is gonna whip his ass either way.

    People argue about the purse split so that if a fight doesn't get made because of problems with the purse split, the fans of one fighter can feel justified in calling the other fighter a ***** for not taking a fight. You know how it is in the forums :yep
