    Good... but it's unfortunate that Floyd didn't achieved what PAC and Tyson were able to achieved...

    Floyd is not busy enough... He's always taking a vacation...:D

    Are you saying that "taking" American money is "theft"? So this is something that Pac should laugh about and be proud of? Thievery?

    Pac is a great Boxer and I hope he makes money all over the globe. I also want him to fight Mayweather. The facts show that... Pac better jump on 50/50 and take the tests.

    If Floyd and Pacquiao ever fight, I will be disappointed if it doesn't crack 3 mil.

    No. Just no. Floyd draws bigger dollars, that's not in dispute.

    1.1 mil is a solid number, but don't get carried away.

    Well, if you consider Floyd vs. Oscar (2.4 mil), you would then need to take Pacquiao vs. Oscar (1.25 mil) and Pacquiao vs. Rockgloves (1.15 mil) and add them together to get the same number. That's not so slight.

    It is what it is and I don't see a real problem with 50/50 since there's so much money on the table for both men anyhow, but your post is just bad.

    Don't forget all of the conditions Floyd gave up to Oscar just to get him in the ring. People can say all they want about Floyd, but he knew Oscar was the bigger draw and conceded negotiating points to get the opportunity to fight him. It was a passing of the torch from one cash cow to another.

    I understand that you don't like Pac. I get it man, it's cool. But do you have to be such a ****** about it? They didn't sell this fight "off of Floyds back"... Stop being so damn delusional. Can't you just enjoy boxing for boxing? Do you ALWAYS have to be riding Floyds dick?

    Margarito has NEVER had a PPV fight.

    Keep that in mind.

    Hope you're not trying to insinuate Margarito had nothing to do with this.
