    mayweather doesnt make half the amount with any other fighter than he would with pac. he needs pac for this record breaking payday so i think 50/50 is fair based on that alone.

    And Pacquaio doesn't make 25% of this fight with any of fighter. Didn't Mayweather just make 40million with Mosley?

    I don't care about either fighters bank balance but Pacquaio asking for 50% is more than what he's worth economicaly, he's as much to blame as Floyd if he doesn't take his true value, ie 40%-45%

    mate i dont really care. they could take 100% winner takes all basis it doesnt bother me. just bothers me that they do actually fight. to get the fight done floyd should accept 50-55%. were talking millions of dollars here, theres poverty alla around the world and mayweather crying about earning 40 million, give me a break!!!

    bull**** if you think mayweather is the bigger draw, I have said it before if Mayweather fought Clottey you think he could do 700k ppv buys, I seriously doubt that. The only reason Mayweather has more than Pac is because of the Delahoya fight. He's smart because he fights the bigger names that help him with the ppv

    De La Hoya was the draw not Floyd.

    If that was the case why did Mayweather-De La Hoya butt **** Pacquiao-De La Hoya in PPV sales? not saying Mayweather was 100% responsible for the buys but shouldn't Pacquiao-De La Hoya outdone the Mayweather-De La Hoya fight if Pacquiao was a bigger draw.

    I think it has been proven that ODH did not do 2.4 by his god damn self. Never once did he do those numbers. He did half that each and every time out. He did 1.5 with Tito and Tito was a PPV star all in his own right. ****ing ******. So 1 mill of that was Floyd. How much of that measely 1.25 of ODH/PAC was actually Pac? :rofl

    de la hoya was coming off the back of a loss against pac which will affect his ppv numbers. hatton was undefeated when fighting floyd. some people on ESB are so stupid

    I agree. You and your friends would short change yourselves in negotiations if you were pro boxers out of desperation and the rush to make fights happen as soon as possible.
