    If a fight between Floyd And Manny is not made will it automatically be Floyds fault

    God forbid that this fight does not happen will it automatically be preceived that it was Floyd not wanting this fight. Eventhough Bob Arum has made it clear that anyone fighting Manny should not get more than 35%.

    Mr boat buyer came back specifically to fight Pac. If it don't happen, he may have to fight a top WW. I doubt he's at fault if it don't go down.

        How the hell wpould it be Floyds fault?

        Floyd aint taking 35% aginst Jesus let alone Pacman.

        It would be Pacs Team fault.

          It would be Arum and Haymon's fault. Arum said "I have no problem with Floyd, it's Al Haymon". He said that as long as Al Haymon is Floyd's manager, he will not do business with Floyd. Burner is right too, Floyd is not taking 35, I bet your ass that Floyd would agree to 50/50 just like he agreed with Hatton. Floyd is not what fans make him out to be when it comes to negotiations, he agreed to a lousy 20/80? or 30/70? with Oscar with no problem while you saw what Manny pulled in both the Hatton and Oscar fights. Also, notice how there was no problem with the money on the JMM/Mayweather negotiations, Floyd could have been an ass and asked for Oscar type splits against Marquez.

                  exactly what i was going to say. A poll we did showed floyd needs pac more than pac needs floyd. floyd should make the fight happen in that case regardless. it's about legacy remember guys.

                    No way it'll be Floyd's fault, unless he demands a ridiculous purse cut.
                    Only way to keep fighters' dignities intact is to make it even,
                    I mean, I seriousy doubt the fighters will object to 50-50.
                    It's the managers/promoters who screw things up by asking
                    for anything different.

                    Arum's 65-35 **** can't possibly apply to Floyd.
