Pacquiao vs Mayweather: PERFECT SOLUTION
40.g/40.g/15.dw/5.ko PURSE SPLIT
40% guaranteed to PACQUIAO
40% guaranteed to MAYWEATHER
15% decision win bonus, loser gets other 5%
5% knockout win bonus,
KO VICTIM LOSER GETS NO BONUS
55% to Mayweather if he thinks he's "the A-Side" and that he can win so easily, that he's so much better than Pacquiao. Then he can take the lions share by letting his body cash the checks his talk hasn't been able to for he last 5 years!
But only 40% to Mayweather if
Pacqiao KNOCKS OUT Mayeather!!!
While PACQUIAO EARNS HIS 60% because he proved he could KTFO Mayweather and put Mayweather on his TRUE A-SIDE...
So we can all see the bottom of Floyds shoes as we did Ricky Hattons!!!
So essentially this sets up a very fair scenario...
55% Total for Winner of Decision
45% Total for Loser of Decision
WINNER EARNS THE LIONS SHARE!!!
WINNER BY KNOCKOUT GETS 60%/KO VICTIM 40%
Floyd is right though, Pac doesn't deserve an even split with Floyd at all. No one does and Pac's recent losses have made sure of that too. If he'd taken the fight when it was on the table a few years ago, with the drug testing, at that point I could see a 50-50 + winner bonus but right now Pac doesn't even deserve 30%. I'd say Floyd is actually being generous offering 40%.
Totally agree. This is too generous. That's what Pac's side is hoping and praying for. I think that's what's holding the negotiations. Floyd is shooting for 70/30, and at the max, 65/35. Even this is generous.
Pac doesn't deserve 60/40. 75/25 or 70/30 is cool. Make the fight fast!
how can an impossible solution be a perfect one? mayweather would never agree to that and frankly he shouldnt. its extremely unfair and makes no sense. floyd is entitled to the majority share regardless of the outcome so why would he gamble it?
if 60% of something was rightfully yours, why gamble it to win nothing in addition? you would just take your 60% and if you would gamble it would be to make it 70 or 80. thats all too messy not to mention dangerous given you cant trust the judges.
they are just going to have to negotiate until they come to a solution everyone is happy with if making such a deal is possible. the deal proposed by OP would be laughed at, literally. even by pacs side. his lawyers would be like "what moron thinks we could even ask let alone expect to receive that?". might as well ask floyd to buy jinkee a new kitchen.
...If this fight is made it will be on Mayweather's terms...
... Floyd will dictate the split, the venue, the gloves, the ring, the ref, the judges, the mouthpiece, the shoes, the shorts, a.s.o.
(It would be nice, though, if they eventually give some big money to charity...)
Solution to what??? fight is almost signed....wtf do we need all these damn threads about the same damn thing?? fvck the split who fvcking cares?
WAR LARRY!!!!!!!
And agree!!
Holyfield took a much smaller purse to fight Tyson the first time and WON, then could command a much larger sum the second time.Pacquaio should just give Mayweather the 60% he wants,knock his ass out and then he can be the A-side and tell him no rematch without a greater split.
60/40 split with lions share going to Floyd is fine with me. Actually the split can be 99/1 for whoever and as long as the guy getting less agrees its ok with me. I wont see a single cent from it anyway.
Here you go Public_Enemy...
Bad Decisions are a problem and that's why my split makes sense.
My solution gives an UNDISPUTED DECISION KNOCKOUT WIN A TRULY
DESERVED 60/40 SPLIT
A DISPUTED DECISON WIN ON POINTS WOULD GIVE
A 55/45 SPLIT.
IMAGINE BRADLEY vs PACQUIAO (1st fight)
Going down as your 60/40??? Or as someone wake suggested a
65/35 decision win??? Would that have been fair???
Heck No!!!
This way a disputed points decision minimizes that unfairness to only a 10% difference.
They can make it up in a rematch!
It just doesn't make sense from Mayweather's pov.
60-40 is fair for both men.
Too many bad decisions in the sport for a fighter to make that kind of deal. It would be silly for someone in Floyd's position to take it. 60-40 is fair.

Problem with your 65/35 Winner split.
So Bradley would have deserved the 65% on that bad decision over Pac in their 1st fight?
AND I'M A BRADLEY FAN WHO THOUGHT HED BEAT BOTH PAC & MAYWEATHER!!!
(before the 1st Pac fight of course, but even now I think Bradley gives Mayweather fits!!!)
Ha Ha, your a joke....
As is Mayweathers excuses over the last 5 years.
All was agreed upon in 2009-2010,
Even the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP Nevada drug testing policy!
But Arum was protecting Pac from being another Mayfeather "broken word" victim as Mayfeather did in the Marquez fight.
Arum protected Pacquiao by stipulating a $1 Million per pound over limit penalty if Mayweather came in heavy like he did against Marquez (4 lbs at weigh in, 20 lbs at fight time). The reason for this is simple...
There was an agreed upon weight Mayweather was to come in at (142lbs) since Marquez was jumping from 130 lbs in 2008 and then fight Mayweather in 2009 (144 limit)
That's a 14 pound difference!!!
(READ & WEAP here: http://www.examiner.com/article/cheating-floyd-mayweather-comes-4-pounds-heavy-for-marquez-fight )
Here's another pointing out the real cheater: http://m.espn.go.com/extra/boxing/story?storyId=4485941&src=desktop )

So Mayweather countered with "above and beyond Nevada drug testing rules" and insisted on day of fight drawing of blood testing.
Even though Nevada drug testing includes IMMEDIATE AFTER FIGHT TESTING. Mayweather specifically wanted same day drug testing excuse because he knew Pac had an issue with drawing of blood on same day of fight since he experienced weakness/fatigue in the loss to Morales which also had same day drawing of blood test.
SO WHY WOULD PACQUIAO GIVE YET ANOTHER ADVANTAGE TO MAYWEATHER HERE?
Pac is the smaller man coming up in weight to fight Mayweather!
Why would he give him that additional psychological edge?
TRUTH!!! ;-)
YO MAN, STEP YO GAME UP!!! ;-/
