Does Mosley deserve a 50-50 split in the purse?

[-TEXANBALLER-]

This is not a hate thread on Mosley by any means. We all know what was was capable of in his prime and is a for sure hall of famer. But do you think Shane Mosley who lost a very close decision to Cotto and who beat a faded Mayorga deserves a 50-50 split in the purse with a candidate for fighter of the year in Margarito?

Seriously guys think about it from his viewpoint and top ranks. He is getting ****ed over with a 50-50 split, even if its a career high payday. In my opinion this fight should have never been talked about since i personally think Margarito will stop Mosley into retirement but that is just me.

Mosley is still a name though. I'm not sure, but he may well be decent value for a 50/50 split in that fight.

Well since Margarito hasn't got a better deal on the table and is instead going to fight a nobody in Mexico for a lot less money, instead of facing HOF Mosley, then i'd say 50-50 is definitely fair.

50% of £4million > 90% of £500,000

[Silencers]

He doesn't deserve it but he's still the name and the draw so 50/50 is probably alright.

[Darkstar]

Yes, Margarito can only dream of accomplishing what Mosley has.

Besides it would be a career high pay day, for a guy who is supposed to be a huge star? Kinda shows you how fair it is.

i dont think you did your research
margarito
won 37 (KO 27) + lost 5 (KO 0) + drawn 0 = 43
rounds boxed 237 : KO% 62.79

mosley
won 45 (KO 38) + lost 5 (KO 0) \= 51
rounds boxed 343 : KO% 74.51

best record out of the 2 would be mosley with more wins, kos, and ko's percentage

mayweather didn't even get 50%
pac is not getting 50%
trinidad did not get 50%
why would margarito get 50%?
