    :lol:

    Just the response i was looking for :lol:, where did i say Pacman done more numbers than Floyd? I said he was the bigger star, its not Manny's fault at least 60% and thats being nice pay to see Floyd get his ass beaten, fair play Floyd always comes out on top that's why more and more people pay to see his fights, i guess it sells, but that does not mean he is a more bigger star than Pacman and i ant saying this has anything to do with the split, iam just making a point.

    I'm not saying this is true. Nor am I saying Mayweather's right by asking for 60-40 even though I feel he's the bigger draw. However, Pac would still make at the absolute least, 30 million I guess with 40%. And I bet it would be more than that.

    I'd get in the ring with Mayweather AND Pacquiao for 10% of that purse...

    Throw a prime Tyson in there too

    You're poor aren't you? :roll:

    Not the slightest sense of business?

    It doesn't matter who the biggest ****** is, who is liked more, who smiles longer, who doesn't know what is a steroid, who shines more...

    ....WHAT MATTERS IS WHO GENERATES MORE REVENUE...WHO IS A BETTER PROMOTER, WHO IS MORE SUCCESFUL AT SELLING FIGHTS...

    ...That is who should get paid more. Floyd Mayweather Jr. brings more revenue, wether its through his haters or his fans it matters NOT..what matters is the bottom line...anyone with anykind of business sense would tell you that.

    U dumb.

    It seems people accept Mayweather is the bigger PPV draw (hard to dispute tbf) so brings in more money to the fight yet they still think he is in the wrong for asking for more?

    Why can't Pacquiao accept Mayweather brings more in so he should be able to take more out?

    here's a good article...

    Pacquiao won't entertain more demands from Floyd

    MANILA, Philippines - Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao said Saturday that the super fight between him and Floyd Mayweather Jr. now depends on the American boxer after he has agreed to undergo a blood test 14 days before their faceoff.

    "Talagang hindi siya lalaban kung mangatwiran ulit siya," Pacquiao told radio dzMM when asked what he would do if Mayweather comes up with a new demand.

    He said that if ever the superfight fails to push through, he may still fight another boxer or just retire and focus on his newfound career in politics.

    Pacquiao has been proclaimed as winner in Sarangani Province's congressional race. He toppled a member of a powerful political clan in the province.

    The Filipino boxer said he will take a 1-week crash course on public administration and governance at the University of the Philippines.

    He said he is also determined to finish his business management course at the Notre Dame University in 2 years and then take up law.

    Pacquiao clarified Friday that the blood that would extracted from him should only be minimal for the drug test.

    “Pumayag naman ako pero hindi yung talagang maraming dugo na kukunin. Kung anong dugo ang kelangan sa drug test, ganoon lang karami. Fourteen days [before the fight],” Pacquiao told ABS-CBN News' Dyan Castillejo.

    Pacquiao said during the radio interview that he has yet to receive a feedback from the camp of Mayweather.

    The reigning World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight champion said he softened his stand after listening to boxing fans’ clamor for a mega fight between him and Mayweather.

    “Everywhere I go… gusto talaga nila ng Mayweather fight. [They ask me] over and over,” said Pacquiao.

    Pacquiao made the decision to fight the former pound-for-pound king weeks after he received permission from his mother, Dionisia Pacquiao, for one last bout.

    The blood test controversy was the reason the negotiations between the Pacquiao and Mayweather camps collapsed early this year.

    The two would have fought last March 13, but Mayweather ended up fighting Shane Mosley and Pacquiao battling Ghana's Joshua Clottey.

    Pacquiao’s camp earlier agreed to undergo tests 24 days before the fight, but Mayweather’s group insisted that blood should be taken 14 days prior to the fight.

    Blood test as the drug protocol is the personal requirement for Mayweather. Athletic commissions require urine tests on boxers as the form of drug testing, and Pacquiao has never had a problem.

    Top Rank promoter Bob Arum said he learned the last day for blood testing used by Mayweather and "Sugar" Shane Mosley in their recent fight was 18 days prior to the fight.

    "The USADA (United States Anti-Doping Agency) stopped the blood test... they took 5 or 6 tests but the last one was 18 days for Mosley and 19 days for Mayweather," he told ABS-CBN News' Dyan Castillejo in a phone interview.

    so Pacquiao decided to concede to the prior test demands, though there a couple test compromises that Mayweather's camp didnt take on their first try.
    If this 60/40 pot is used as a stumbling block to prevent this fight, this is ALL on Mayweather.

    55/45 sounds fair, but 60/40 is simply dumb andabsolute ducking.

    Even at 50/50, each of them would make their biggest purse to date. Floyd with any other opponent won't make close to the 50% he'll get from the Pac fight even if he gets 70/30 split. Same is true with Pac, he'll never make the money he'll be making agreeing to a 45% with any other opponent even he gets 70/30 split.

    Bottomline is, they should meet somewhere the 60/40 and 50/50 splits.
