The only way is see the fight happening if Arum coughs up more money, they would have to buy this fight then Mayweather might consider fighting.
Bob Arum and Manny has much more to gain than offer at this point, win over Rios was to convince public opinion that Pacqiuao should still be considered to beat Mayweather therefore warranting a 50-50 share. But are you convinced?
Hopefully they fight each other and both fighter gets fair % considering the pros-&-cons.
From Floyd Point of View lets look at what has he got to gain, and work out a reasonable purse Share for the fight. Remember Floyds point of view would be based on what he really cares about.
Pros
Bigger Purse Share and possible shot at breaking PPV records.
Cons
Pacqiuao has no World Championship Titles and has lost his #2 P4P status - Is almost like no prize. Especially if critics will say Pacquiao has faded discrediting his win.
Already awarded ATG, and WBC Supreme Champion, so a victory wont change this. "I don't need Pacquiao".
Current WBC Championship & Ring Championship along with his undefeated record would be at stake.

I think 70% - 30% in favor of Mayweather is generous at this point.
