Just like they can't accept the truth niether can you. But its ok. The rest of us, even manny fans, know the truth and are laughing at you guys.

    What you are stating is closer to those Floyd fans that believe whatever he says. It started with Floyd accusing Manny of taking PEDs with NO PROOF .... Floyd's followers soon after did the same. Floyd fans should have asked Floyd for FACTS but rather believe in FALSE ACCUSATIONS.

      Again 40 mil is fair for manny based on the way his deal is srtuctured. You act as if floyd and manny are equals. They are not. Manny is a tr employee and as such has financial responsibilities to them that to a degree limits or caps his earnings.

      Floyd does deserve more than manny. He deserves more because he took the risk to create the contract he has . If the fight makes 200 nmil then hey floyd gets over just like odh did on floyd. Floyd still got paid. Manny will still get paid. But as I said before floyd and manny arte not equals. No matter what u say the most lucrative fight for anyone is a floyd fight.

      Floyd has been reasonable in these negotiations. Every time he is manny makes excuses or acts like he can take his time and decide. Sorry but floyd isn't going to treat manny special. All manny is is another opponent for floyd to make money fighting. I know he is a hero to you. But he isn't.

      Manny had the deal he wants now. He turned it down intially. Manny acted bigger than he is. So now he has said he will take less. Because of his earlier stance and the way he negotiates he's probably gonna have to take less to fight floyd. U say people blame floyd? Well his ppv sales since then suggest otherwise. Just because some manny diehards and floyd haters blame floyd doesn't make it so.

      It was not always about money. Money is just the latest of mutliple roadblocks. It was initially drug testing.

      Floyd said TAKE THE TEST AND WE HAVE A FIGHT. Right? But what happened once Manny accepted?

      Up until Floyd brought up "I WANT ALL PPV MONEY", we all had the impression that there was just one roadblock BUT in fact, Floyd had the "money" roadblock in his back pocket. Ready and waiting (see video below)!

      You are wrong about Floyd deserving "ALL PPV MONEY".
      1) Oscar was both boxer and promoter and was huge.
      2) Floyd required that fight to become big and be more of a household name. Even non boxing fans knew Oscar back then but not as many knew Floyd
      3) Oscar was a big PPV draw. Floyd was just starting (PPV) and was NOT!!! Very important to note!


      Floyd has done better than Manny but Manny is also a big draw. You can't compare this to when Floyd fought Oscar. Not the same thing!




      At 9:30 mark - Floyd was already saying that he deserves more. This is a guy that just came back from retirement and where Floyd vs Marquez generated less than Manny vs Cotto. Manny was #1 P4P AND made more than Floyd that year! Yet Manny was OK with 50/50 and wasn't talking like Floyd.




      Here is an argument about Floyd vs Manny numbers. Now you may disagree and I have no problem with that but that just shows that for Floyd and you to agree to Floyd taking ALL PPV MONEY is a joke!

        YOur full of it. Floyd deserves more money, he deserves everything according to you.

        So what if Floyd is richer than Pac and makes more money? A film star might make 10 million a movie, but if he wants to take a film part that is offering less money the film star would be willing to take a pay cut as he badly wants the part. Sometimes actors take small independant film roles that are not as commercial but satisfy their creativity.

        If Floyd wants Pac, he should be willing to give Pac 99% of the money if that is what it takes to get Pac in the ring. Floyd should be desperate to fight Pac. Pac is the one with the reputation for fighting and for being great. Floyd is the one known for taking career breaks and ducking fighter.s

        Pac deserves more money than Floyd, but as usual he is willing to take the fight for less money as Pac wants to fight to please the fans. As long as we know Floyd is the one putting barriers up to the fight happening there is nothing to argue about here.

          Good one. Props to you.

          • Is anyone really surprised that floyd fans are defending this? What happened to "manny just take the tests!"

            That's all in the nuttshell. Floyd lovers just don't get how much a pussay Floyd has become, and how much they love to kissass and try to defend all the roadblocks their creative boxer has concocted everytime. And they are left with a lot to defend in here and they can't seem to realize that their efforts are futile because their fighter is the gayest mofo that ever walked the earth lol

              Thanks. Someone had to take Big Dunn off of his deluded high horse. His love for Floyd is distorting his view of reality and from right and wrong behaviour.

                The only reason Pac wants Floyd is cos the public want it and Pac likes to give the public what they want. Pac dont need Floyd at all.

                Floyd has done nothing with his career for the last 5 years so he needs Pac.
                This is what Floyd fanboys don't get. Only reason why Pac talks about Floyd at all is because people never stop asking about Floyd as if it's up to Pac to make the fight happen. Idiots can't seem to recognize it takes two to tango. As a result, when Pac does talk about Floyd in response to questions, his answer gets lost in translation (due to cultural differences). Then clowns in the media make it appear as if he's desperate for the fight. "Pac signs up another one year contract with TR with a guaranteed Floyd fight," says a stupid article. Why would you even care whether you get a Floyd fight in a contract or not if you were superstar Pac? People are effing stupid. I'd stop answering questions about Floyd and let Floyd remain a chicken if I were Pac. If Floyd doesn't want the fight, what can Pac do?

                When Floyd says, "Pac, you're next," he basically admits he's the one holding up the fight. It means he can make the fight happen at the drop of a hat if he really wants it. The problem is he doesn't. Pac would say he'd do the fight for free and Floyd would still come up with a new excuse not to fight.

                  I've nmever said manny used peds so try again.

                  In your 2nd post you illustrate my point. Manny took forever to accept. In yoir mind hey that's ok because its manny. In the real world no one gets that much time to deside. So then as soon as floyd gets tired of a 5 1/2 month wait then he says **** it and says the offer is off the table. Then manny accepts. Cmon if you cosign that then there is nothing to ***** about when floyd negotiates the way he does.

                  Manny doesn't have to keep making excuses about the offers he's getting. He makes them roadblocks when they don't need to be. He got the deal he wanted and he turned it down. Why you think he deserves any more respect is crazy.

                  Manny is a big draw and a great champion. Buit he still isn't the biggest. Your whole thing is floyd isn't giving manny any respect. But manny does the same thing in negotiations. You can't have it both ways.

                    Manny is your hero and you hate floyd. Cool. But manny only deserves what he's earned no more no less. Manny surely didn't give cotto an offer for a rematch that factored oin miguels heart and soul etcetc. Why you think manny should have these things factored in is ridiculous.

                    You guys want floyd to give manny respect that manny has never given his opponents. Its noit going to happen. Manny deserves what a guy who has never sold more than 1.4 mil pppvs gets when he fights a guy who has sold more than 1.5 twice, including 2.4 mil. Mannuy desrves what the number says he does. How much you like him or fotd awards don't factor into that.

                    As for taking less, manny doesn't deserve 45%. He deserves prob 30-35. Maybe if he had negotiated differently then floyd might give it to him. Bit just remember that manny played rough. So why you guys ***** about him getting treated the same is beyond me. Manny isn't special. He's just an opponent.

                      The reason manny talks about floyd is because he wants to make as much money as possible and he knows, as do you, that a floyd fight is the most lucrative out there. You guys are so used to boxers that earn less than manny begging hin to fight.when floyd was retired you guys saw manny at the top and salivatedm !ut as soon as floyd came back manny went back to his rightful spot as the #2 guy in the sport.

                      Manny wants to sell 2 mil ppvs. Manny wants to make 85 mil in a year. He wants to be part of the biggest fight ever. He needs floyd to get these things. Floyd has alredy achieved them.

                      Manny is just a means to an end for floyd now. Maybe if manny had just accepted a very fair reasonable deal in dec 09 wed have seen this fight.
