floyd to be put in place. what are the pac floyd negotiations going to be about? since floyd has lost the chip he was counting on... who does better numbers. now he will likely revert to the tactic of claiming he has more to lose than pacquiao. his only argument for this is to suggest that his undefeated status is more valuable than anything pac brings. the only problem is that this last tack of floyd's is vaporized by the facts. what does pac bring to the table? for starters pac brings belts. actual hardware. second, and greater in importance, pac is the possessor of the mystical title p4p#1. that in boxing is a reserved spot in history standing next to no less than the sugar ray robinson. to me the answer is clear as can be. which is more valuable, a record which can be equally claimed by andre berto, that is undefeated, or, a spot next to the sugarman in reverence of abilities.
everything will be talked and argued about. purse split PPV rights gloves ring size weight everything i wont be surprise if Mayweather demands something ******ed like Pacquiao shave the night before the fight
I think the Belt Holder should have top of the negotiation table! Just like when Floyd faced Oscar, it was Oscar calling the shots.
Oscar always called the shots, belt or no belt, becasue he was the biggest attraction in the sport. In Floyd's case, the numbers are on his side, but i think 50-50 is reasonable.
True he always called the shots, but In Floyd's and Manny's case I think since Pac has the belt he should get more of the demands. As far as split 50/50 is where it should be with the top #1 and #2 fighters.
floyd, you'll be lucky if you are offered 50/50. you've already stated that if you can make 60 or 70 million, that would make you a winner. if that's the case then you would be behooved not to accept 40 % if it meant that much money. as for the logistical trifling. floyd may as well be aware that p.r. wise, if he wants to lobby for bigger gloves, well need i say more? weight... there ain't a welterweight to hide behind.
although floyd is the senior in age 32 to pacquiao 30, professionally pacquiao is more veteran. pacquiao has had 15 more pro fights than mayweather.
