    spot-on.

    pacquiao simply said 50/50 and floyd got the fight.

    floyd rejected 50/50 and ran away and would fight pac's victim in miguel cotto.

    anyone who would deny this is a red-hot flaming *****.

    ******* world, where Pacquaio throws 800 punches, lands a good percentage and Floyd somehow fails to move and punch back :patsch

    I dont get people justifying floyd not accepting 50/50 just be honest and admit that is bull****.

    50/50 or 60/40 to the winner is what this should be. The bottom line is that Arum would not come to the negotiating table where these things could be worked out. To me that right there is the major problem.

    assuming arum is at fault right now and floyd is never at fault for rejecting a fair 50/50 split. would you still blame arum after the cotto fight if floyd still prices himself out of the 50/50?

    Pacquiao starting his promotion for his next fight like he's done with his previous few...

    Talking about Mayweather:dead

    If Arum actually sits down at the negotiation table and they work everything out but Floyd won't do a 50/50 split then he is at fault but Arum has to sit down. He is still going around saying he doesn't know who represents Floyd yet Shaefer is calling him and Floyd told him to talk to Shaefer.

    Are people forgetting there were no negotiations and that Mayweather had to ring Pacquiao personally to try and get into negotiations?

    You need your promoters to sit down and and negotiate, if one of them won't answer the phone to the other then it's clear why the fight didn't happen.

    Mayweather should accept 50/50 however Pacquiao shouldn't say he would accept less if that's not the case.

    A quick phone call between boxers proves literally **** all.

    he is not promoting his fight. he is telling you guys that floyd tried to lowball him with that 440m offer with no PPV upside and then floyd rejected a very fair 50/50 offer.

    promoting his fight is floyd trying to act like he wants to fight pac via twitter an facebook only to ran away when offered the 50/50 split.

    Probably, cause Pacqiuao was busy seeing Jeremy Lin. Heard he scouted this kid.

    I agree that Arum never wanted it, he has done and said a lot of things that makes this clear, he probably dont like pacs chances vs floyd, thats the most logical explanation.
    But I dont get from floyds point of view that he talks so much about wanting the fight now and then rejects a perfectly reasonable split, it makes it look like he is trying to put the blame in the other camp while not really wanting it or just being very greedy for more money.
    He should have accepted it and given arum no excuses.
