      I don't know man. Floyd is going to have enough defense with his ppv numbers for people to really blame him. pac has come on too stong and has done so much for boxing in the last 2 years. he's the face, the lb 4 lb and the most exciting. going forward he's prob a better attraction. but his #'s dont add up to floyds. i find it hard for these guys to find a middle ground because they both have legit enough reason for the bigger piece.

      Winner take 60 loser take 40?

      I think push comes to shove floyd needs this fight more than pac does. pac resume > floyd so really floyd has more to prove at this point and may be forced to budge, as much as i don't see that happening.

      it would be a shame if this fight never came off, i dont think anyone could say 1 ducked the other, just that they both have egos too big for the good of the sport. and this fight not coming off is a reality when you look at how far apart the 2 sides seem to be.

        Floyd just came back from retirement and did nothing in boxing for almost 2 years will not fight Pac even at 50-50? Up to this day he did nothing and he said this. What more if he beat JMM on July 18. He rather rematch Hatton or Oscar or retire again than fight Cotto, Mosley, Clottey or William I think. Sad

          All will be settled when we see Floyd-JMM PPV buys.

            I dont think this will generate much interest to the hardcore boxing fans who saw this as a mismatch where Floyd fighting a lightweight JMM and to the casual fans this will also generate less interest because of Floyd long lay off, their boring boxing style from the casual fans point of view, less drama and the lack of character build up like hero on their own country so to gain national support from their countrymen. I will be surprise if this will have more ppv buys than Hatton vs Pac did.

              Early days, He has JMM in front of him so people need to relax and lets see what happens in that fight.

              And the last i heard Paq said he isnt settling for anything less than 60-40 with PBF so does that mean he's pricing himself out of a fight with Mayweather??? We boxing fans are very thick..

                You losers are always so conscerned about mayweather why dont you guys get a life, obviously pacman is not a big enough draw because you guys cant even have a topic about him without mentioning floyd money mayweather. If mayweather cashes the bigger checks after all his fights then obviously he is the bigger draw kiddies

                  LMAO @ Floyd "this comeback is for the fans,not for the money" Mayweather.
                  50-50 is fair and anyone that says it isnt is a semen gobbler.

                    I agree.

                    Catchweight Manny is the biggest fight out there for Floyd.

                    And Floyd is the biggest fight out there for Manny.

                    50/50 at 147..

                    If he can fight Oscar at 147 he can do the same with Floyd.
