    HHmmm who is the bigger user of social media?? its only recently that Pacquiao has resorted to floyds tactics.

    You are just so blinded by hate, you can not see what is in front of you.

    Floyd was in self imposed retirement, comes back because a fighter in what was his weight division had taken what was his P4P #1 and was gaining plaudits from every sports writer, figghters etc etc. Floyd came out of retirement NO longer #1 or appealing to the general boxing fans. He then uses RBT to dodge the fight knowing as he had never asked for it before, it would insult and insinuate that Pacquiao was on something. Well we all know what happened there dont we.. Floyd never showed up and when asked for his records of NONE RBT drug tests he BAILED.

    The Stadium which was Arums idea and not a bad idea to generate more money. It was never meant to be permanent like many *****s think. It was a tool used to try and get FLoyd out of fighting in Vegas where he can legaly use his hand numbing drug ( illegal outside of Nevada ) initially at this time Dallas and Dubai were touted around as venues.

    Cuts need to heal.. your issue is??

    Face facts Floyd is scared of losing the ONLY thing keeping him relevant, his ZERO. Without it he loses all the fans that want to see him lose FACT and there are loads of them. His style of fighting does not draw PPV buys its his persona and people wanting him to lose that make him $$$$ and we know when that dissapears its all over for him. Unlike Pacquiao who has multiple loses but fights in a crowd pleasing manner ( even if he loses )

    What is there to figure out here? May is pricing himself out and will be boycotted if he continues these negotiations. Pac has completely destroyed all common opponents much more easier and thouroughly. Plus has been on P4P almost 600 wks, compared to May almost 200. This is a no brainer on negotiation

    It was a bad decision on Arum. The prob with JMM is he had already been defeated although the fights were close. It was a no-win situation for PAC. Both May and Pac are A-side so they need an even deal.

    May continues to try to work a totally unfair deal which prevents the fight. Pac should just force the deal. If no deal then Pac should go after Khan, beating May at the punch, and May will basically be boycotted and his stock will plummet

    The better end of a 60/40 deal is a given for Mayweather.

    I think what Pacquiao is fighting for right now is the 40% with Mayweather offering less than that.

    The problem for Pacquiao here is that Mayweather is in the right. Pacquiao's fight with Algieri only sold to the fighters family members, nobody bought it.
    Arum should have thought of that.
    .....and if that fight made alot of money because it was staged in Macau, then good for Pacquiao because that money then compensates for the much lower % he's going to be allowed to get if he wants to fight Mayweather.

    Pacquiao no longer is a PPV seller, his last few PPV's prove it.

    If Pacquiao wants some of the stigma erased from going head first onto the canvas vs Marquez, he either offers Marquez himself a 50/50 split, or he takes whatever Mayweather asks him to take.
    This is'nt high level calculus here.

    Pac is the more exciting fighter. People by May fights because they want and to see him lose. Thats a big difference. 60 40 is perfect for the both of them, plus a rematch clause which doubles each fightera money no matter what. Everybody wins win or lose.

    And Pac has beaten Tim Bradley twice who was on the P4P list and undefeated. Please dont bring up the first fight, which was one of the worst decisions of all time, per ESPN. Two more wins over Rios and Algeri. Mayweather is almost B-side. Look that Pac K0 cotto. Destroyed Oscar, Margarito, Hatton, Mosely.

    They were on PEDs, and rightly assume that Floyd is on them too.
