    How the **** is Mosley in the driver seat? If mosley doesn't fight mayweather, he'll have to retire or fight nobodies for no money.

    If shane was willing to take 40% vs Pac why should it be any different with PBF? Sign and give boxing some buzz.

    Who is he going to fight? How about PBF. Who is he going to fight? They both need each other and since that is the case both should split the purse. 40/60 would be OK but anything under that and Mosley should just tell them to go find someone else.

    Mayweather is no draw that is just a myth. People buy PPV to see the other guy e.g. Hatton (Brits), Marquez (Mexicans), Hoya (Americans) etc.

    When has JMM ever headlined a PPV :lol: Dude, stop with the bull****. Floyd did over 1 million buys against a guy who is very scarcely known to the casual boxing fans.

    Mosley cares about his legacy. Mayweather knows this. He should know Mosley will take 30% to fight him when push comes to shove.

    i agree mosley should fight for 50-50. he's the champ and floyd at this point needs him a lot more than mosley needs floyd. mosley has already proven he fights anyone. the knock on floyd is that he's more picky than a 5yr old brat at the dinner table. at worse it should be 55-45 in favor of floyd, but no more than that.

    :good Yeah it's Floyd who needs Mosley more at this time so 50-50 demand by Mosley is understandable. If Mosley dumps Floyd, it will make Floyd look like a pile of **** left in the middle of the road.

    Shane's been itching to get this fight so I think he would settle for a 55/45 split in Floyd's favor.

    its sad that this is a topic of discussion. I'd like to think my heroes would say... "**** it, ill fight for free, and they'll be talking about me for years to come after i knock you the **** out, because i believe im the best fighter in the world, and i want to be known as the greatest of all time. So take the entire purse, *****. Im a true warrior, i'll rip my own heart out and beat you with it."...considering their first million would virtually make them set for life moneywise...the million they made 10 fights ago on their way to becoming elite, cream of the crop, P4P, world class boxers.

    Now wake up and stop dreaming or get of the drug your taking.

    In the real world, they make millions they spend millions.
