Roach: Floyd Wants 60/40 For A Pacquiao Fight.

[JOM'S]

60-40 for PBF if the fight is at 140
60-40 for PAC if the fight is at 147
50-50 if the fight is at a catchweight 143.5

i dont care how they cut the cake but both fighters have a duty to fans to make this happen...

[JOM'S]

There is only one winner in this.Floyd will get 60% Manny gets less.Manny's ego will be bruised and to cover up Arum will announce he is topping Manny's money to a certain level the way he did on the Hatton fight.

There is no way in this life or the one after than Manny will get more than Floyd.From a business perspective it's impossible,each brand can easily be evaluated,I could work out what Brand Manny is worth.This is simple and Mayweather is a businessman with a team of experts.Arum knows this he's only trying to play mind games.Floyd has stated his position,he's not going after Manny because all roads lead to him.Floyd has a better team than Manny and GBP behind him as well.These guys run boxing.

PBF-JMM should bring in Good Numbers if not, floyds bargaining power will be out the gutter...

As of the two round KO over Hatton all roads lead to Pacquiao. The casual fans have a new name to look out for. Yes, Mayweather is still relevant by all means but the top dog in everyones eyes except Floyds is Manny. Anyone who doesn't have an agenda or some kind of bias toward Floyd or his bank accounts will tell you the same. You're known to be a Mayweather hugger of sorts chiyoko so you can't be taken seriously in regards to this matter.

You post so passionately as if Floyds take in a fight affects your bank account. Shane only went on ESPN and said what he said about Mayweather because its 100% certain a fight with him and Manny can't and won't happen so he is taking the second best option. If Manny were saying I will definitely come up to 147 and fight anyone please believe Mosley wouldn't have said a damn thing about Mayweather and his comments cause he would have been too busy posturing to get in line for a shot at the real #1 P4P fighter right now, not the guy who just claims he is because he still has an 0.

Then the argument the fight being fixed comes into play.

Then the argument the fight being fixed comes into play.... you think there will ever be that question in any of Maybeweather's fights.... are you even yapping about you duche. If you were a Maybeweather fan you just made an out of not only YOURSELF but Maybeweather's career. You crackhead!!!!

[Kris Silver]

Negotiations and talk on this fight are going to get doubley worse then they were for Hatton Pac.

It's going to be excruciating painful.

Floyd will get his 60% of the pie - to this there is little doubt. As somebody mentioned before, Al Haymon and Shaeffer etc will see to it.
PBF is the bigger name, and will be the driving force behind the 24/7 and the promotion of this proposed fight. Expect to see ''Money'' Mayweather at his absolute best (or worse whichever way you view him) in this promotion as he will play the ''bad guy'' which HBO and the viewing public love. Manny is a very charming guy, but he's not an exciting personality - wither way just get the fight made after the Marquez fight assuming PBF wins.

Well based on the floyds latest interview he wants manny, and probably more than manny wants him. if im arum i say 60/40 pac @ 140 & if you dont want it go fight a top WW. simple. manny has more options that floyd. the way floyd is being called out and critized now & it being in the media, etc he's backed himself into a corner. Either he's willing to budge on money or he's willing to take more n more heat, which i dont think he is to be honest.

just make it 50/50. they both will still get millions on top of millions for the fight

You guys are smoking. Why would Floyd give Pac 50%? Its like everyone is buying into the hype. Floyd sold more PPV's with Gatti than any of Pac's PPV's until the last 2. Floyd had nearly the same amount of PPV buys with guys like Baldy as Pac had in major fights with the Mexicans. Floyd sold twice the PPV's with Oscar than Pac did. Floyd sold more PPV's with Hatton then Pac did. We all know that he will do more numbers with JMM then Pac did. Floyd has also made way more money in the sport then Pac has so how can anyone justify Pac getting a bigger purse or Pac getting 50%? Are you guys really falliing for that stuff.

People dont know nothing when they say that Floyd needs Pac more then Pac needs Floyd. Come on now. Floyd is going to always hype a fight and already has a big name. He's going to make more money then Pac. One guy just said to tell Floyd to have the fight at 140 for 40% or let Floyd go fight a real WW. You fool. Floyd will easily go and fight Mosley and let Pac fight Cotto. Guess what will happened? Floyd-Mosley will easily do more buys then Pac-Cotto and Cotto will probably knock Pac the **** out. Roach isnt dumb and neither is Arum despite all the stuff they talk. They know who the man is. They can act like they are all they want but Floyd isnt bowing to no one. The only guy he has ever bowed to is Oscar just like everyone else but even after Floyd beat him, you saw him go tell Oscar to stick that rematch up his asz. How can any of you justify a 50/50 split when he hasnt proven it? He hasnt. The numbers speak for themselves. Floyd will just fight Mosley and then Pac will be forced to fight Cotto which Arum wouldnt care about but then Roach will be feeling dumb as Arum is all happy and Roach will feel like he got played into a fight that they didnt want. Now theyre fighting a guy who is probably more dangerous then Floyd for Pac and theyre doing it for much less money. Get real.

Bottom line is that Floyd will get like a 57.5-42.5 split or the fight wont happened. At worst Floyd will get like 50.5/42.5 with the last 7 going to the winner. No way he's going to take less or even money with Pac when he's had bigger numbers in all the same fights, has made more money thorught his career, and has Mosley sitting right there waiting to fight

[JohnnyQuppercut]

Both sides will want 60-40.

I think if any fight was ever a 50/50 deal, this one SHOULD be.

But I forsee a lot of negotiating and having the fight on and off for thee weeks before they get it done.
