Trinidad and Mosely also wanted bigger shares and they didn't fight Delahoya again (Mosley for a third time).
When Oscar was asked, on camera, ( of which I have the video) if he would fight Trinidad in a return, he refused it. Money was not mentioned. Of course it may have been, during the real negotiarions. Not too long after this Papa Trinidad announced to Don King that their future price for any fight was $10 mill minimum.

Why do i think it was the second fight? My recollection is that they were going to have the return shortly after the first fight, and it fell through because Mosley refused the offer. And this was why the return didn't take place for 3 years instead of within the year. I could be wrong.
Some fights fell through because of that.
The Mayweather rematch fell through because Oscar was offering Floyd under 50-50, and Floyd didn't want to accept cause he had beaten DLH already and thought he deserved more. And a Winky fight fell through because Winky didn't want to accept a guaranteed $6Mill+PPV incentives.
But DLH was the cash cow for all of his fights, so fighters had no choice but to bend down to him. Remember this guy came in with a decorated Olympic background, heartbreaking story of his mother, and was already popular with the women. So he was always like the A-Side of his fights.
Mosley refused $12 million for the rematch saying that since he had beaten Oscar (and he beat him clearly) he deserved a 50-50 split, or at least a lot more thn $12 mill. Mosley, still unbeaten and having won over Oscar, had a huge reputation.
That is the definition of cash cow king!
The mayweather split was 70-30. Pacquaio made 35 percent. I remember this from their negotiation in 2008 when de la hoya said that he offered him five percent more than he gave mayweather to fight him a year prior to that.
I did hear about the winky deal a few days back, i believe it was decent money what was offered to winky.
I heard also that pacman took 35 and mayweather received 40 but I am not positive with those numbers.
I wonder how much quartey took, vargas, and mosley on both fights..
