1) None of Mannys fights have broke any records on most buys.
2) Floyd holds the record for most buys breaking Tyson vs Evander II record, by doing roughly 2.4 million buys.
3) Manny Pacquiao is only p4p because floyd retired and gave that title up.
4) Floyd is technically the WW champ after beating Mosley at the offical weight.
5) Manny fought Oscar & Hatton after floyd so if u discredit those wins (cause most people say hatton was too small & oscar was too old. We know hatton didnt grow & Oscar didnt get no younger). So now we look at Cotto & clottey. Manny has only had one good fight at WW and that was Cotto (damaged).
6) The purse split was already at 50/50 before he fought clottey & before Floyd fought Mosley. So after those 2 fights, how can it still be 50/50 when Floyd did roughly 1.4 million and Manny did a little over 700k?
People need to stop basing their opinions off feelings and start using facts. Floyd is the biggest drawer since Oscar & everyone knows oscar was gonna get 70-30 when he fought pac, so how can he demand 50/50?
The way they should decide is by whoever wins take 60 percent and the loser(if thats what u call it..still making alot of money) takes 40 percent see how confidence money may is then?
U might not care & thats fine. But as a fan of boxing and Floyd Mayweather, I wanna see him fight a man who is 1) clean 2) If he deserves to get the bigger purse then i wanna see him get it. Floyd should'nt have to bend over and get raped cuz BOB ARUM says so...F*&k that!
And i'll say this again...I wanna see Floyd whoop a clean booty with a big split!...no homo..
The clean part I have no problem with but the whole Floyd should get a bigger split thing makes me think that you don't want the fight to happen at all.
Once again who gives a fuk about whp should get more money? Either way each fighter will make more then they ever have in their entire careers.
I've said this once and i will say it again none of us are gonna pay 60$ to watch Manny and Floyd count their money.

So you speak for the masses? If fans feel robbed after purchasing a Floyd fight, then why do they still purchase Floyd fights? Being that you seem to be the spokesman for every fan that purchases a Floyd fight, I'm sure you can answer this.
I BUY FLOYD FIGHTS BECAUSE I LIKE TO SEE HIM WIN AND FOR HIS SKILLS. manny going down

Great post!
For all the floyd is boring talk from posters, emmanuel steward, merchant etc. people buy his fights and that is the bottom line and non floyd fans HATE this more than anything.
Manny does have great KO's and a very wtachable style. People pay more to see floyd fight live and more people buy his ppv fights. Its simple economics.
you had your chance to accept a 50/50 Split but you turned it down because you didn't want to take a blood test
#6 is 100% correct, Mayweather vs Mosley PPV doing 1.4 Million and Pacman vs Clottey 700k put Arum at a slight disadvantage as far as negotiations
fans get the feeling theyve been robbed after buying a floyd ppv.
you wont get that for buying a pac fight.

Really?? Oscar fighting Manny at 147 who came in at 146 that fights at 154 up for over a decade. That fight was a one sided mismatch and a pure robbery. Pac vs Hatton was over after floyd knocked him out. Pac vs Cotto was an interesting fight which was fought at 145. Pac vs Clottey has to be the worst fight of 2010 if not the worst fight ive seen thus far. So if u feel like u getting yours money worth dont purchase Floyd vs Pac, because that will be a one sided win for floyd. Call it a stick up!
