I expect Schaeffer to start being his BIATCH self by ridiculing and deriding Pac's achievements and character like he and Golden Boy Promotions always does once formal talks by both camps begin.
MP is just a name. It is a pass-through imprint.
But GBP gets NOWHERE NEAR what you laid out. the proposal you laid out is (respectfully) laughable.
MP subcontracts out to GBP and MP takes a promoter's cut. In every fight since Judah, FMJ has don one-fight deals with various promoters. Remember that he used DTP for "Pretty Risky".
There are a lot of things that you are not taking into consideration with your financial analysis. For example, corporate taxes.
FMJ does not have a promotional contract with GBP. He subcontracts them on a fight-by-fight basis. By doing it thusly, it gives him leverage to negotiate individual deals. (remember the convos w DKP last year?)
posters are more interested in making the little dude look bad than actually thinking about the situation objectively.
he doesnt have to have a deal with them in order for them to promote the fight. it eill be a golden boy/mayweather promotion
so floyd is just giving money away to gbp or is gbp promoting for free. don't be naive.
there has to be a signed deal in place. because neither of those two are known for giving away money.
Floyd won't be suckered into catchweights, they might as well forget the catchweight.
I am with Floyd on that.
He wont be "suckered" but there will be a catchweight. Watch!
My hypothesis is that pbf could have easily made 144 against jmm but if he gave the illusion that cutting down would be too hard; then team pacq would attempt to push for that advantage. He creates another chip that he can play at the table. And we all know that team pacq aint fighting him if they dnt get some type of weak advantage.
Its all smoke and mirrors. And team pacq are dealing with some dirty hustlers from Grand Rapids Michigan who are used to dealing with shady characters.
Both will be confident of winning so 45/45 with the extra 10 going to the winner.
Roach is taking the magic away from Manny's wins with this catch weight bullshit.
Does Mayweather have a signed deal with GBP? I think he does

This is simple, just call out both of their manhood and skill. Just tell them both if either of you want the 60/40 then they both need to take 40/40 and the winner takes the extra 20%, its simple. If one or the other, or both say no call them both bitches and leave it at that.
As i said PBF needs to beat SSM first, so when he fights Pac he has something to bring to the negotiating table. PBFs resume is so weak compared to Pacs.
PBF needs to boast that he has got a SSM on his resume.
this fight isn't gonna happen... floyd has to be reasonable w/ the demands or arum will walk from negotiations
Its both sides that have to be to be honest, not just one.
Good to see... hope this fight gets made. No catchweight stuff though that's stupid hes supposed be champion at WW so he should defend it at the official WW limit, and I think it should be 50/50 also.
But I don't really care aslong as they make the fight happen... but I am really stuck on the thought of it being at 147 and not a catchweight.
This fight should be 60-40 in Floyd's favor and no less than 55-45 floyd. The PPV stats point to floyd, the length of dominance belongs to Floyd, attendance $$$ to fights belongs to Floyd. everything favors Floyd so should the lion share of the $$$
that's the kind of rhetoric that will kill the fight... good thing you aren't negotiating

Both teams have to be reasonable. It can't be one sided. If so, then it won't happen. There has to be a compromise from both sides.

just to point out the obvious, JMM vs Mayweather never sold out. Manny Vs Cotto did. why lie
I think PBF should fight SSM first because even SSM has a better resume opponents wise. He beat Margarito and a prime DLH.
PBF only has a win over a over the hill DLH to bring to the table and a 147 hatton.
