    I will not support any athlete who refuses to take a drug test. (ANY TYPE OF DRUG TEST)

    If by moving goal posts you mean money? I have to support Floyd on that as I'd do the same. 2 years ago, 50-50 was fair. It isn't now.

    Floyd has gone on to make a **** load more money, & sell a **** load more PPV.
    His garuntee purses dwarf what Manny is earning.

    Why should Manny earn more then he ever has in his career yet Floyd earns the same??

    That £40m offer to Manny was very very generous. By far and away his biggest pay day. He won't make £40m anywhere else. (Floyd can make that much money against anyone)

    I'm trying to remember a time when Mayweather fought an elite opponent in his weight class who was in his prime....hmm....oh yeah, Jose Luis Castillo......gave him hell.......ever since the only opponents still prime Mayweather fought was 140 king Hatton at 147, and the great Carlos Baldomir and Victor Ortiz fresh off massive victories vs Zab Judah and Android Berto to prove their greatness......impressive for 5 years work......quite legendary, no wonder some are starting to call him the greatest

    so you would rather not see this fight if it would be a 50/50 split then?

    40 million pounds?

    HAHAHAHAH this guy is just too easy. . somebody finish him off. . .

    and no, Floyd can't make 40 million dollars against anyone. . . he probably made just under 40 against cotto and ortiz. . .

    it doesn't matter how much each boxer gets after promoter's fees. . it matters how much each boxer brings to the table for this fight. . . You can't mention floyd's name without manny, and manny's name without floyd. .

    their numbers are similar enough to warrant 50/50. . but a 40 million dollar flat fee WITH NO PPV REVENUE is just ridiculous. . . Pac ain't a "B-side" guy. . .

    That's bull****. Pac made $30-35M in each of his last two fights. Pac's numbers have gotten better since then, both his fights outsold Floyd's last year, meaning he had the highest selling and grossing fight in 2 of the last 3 years in both PPV/Gate going head to head with Floyd. There was more of a case against 50-50 back then when Floyd was PPV king in 2010. But hey, Floyd's fans eat and repeat everything he says regardless...keep spreadin the BS, maybe Floyd will get paid $70M in a fight one day not against Pacquiao, you guys will be happy just the same

    Pac still wanted cut offs. There was nothing to discuss so why waste everyone's time.

    Manny is a dickhead negotiator. Don't you remember how he almost cancelled the Hatton fight because he wouldn't give Hatton 50/50 but made him take 48/52.

    2 PERCENT. Some people's champion. Greedy ***** :lol:

    why do i keep reading that cotto was on the brink of being koed in the 12th round by gay?

    he was nowhere even remotely close to being koed with that uppercut.

    is this another rewriting the history by the *****s.

    Pac only fought one elite in their prime at their best weight and that was Marquez. So?
