Mayweather Jr: "Pacquiao Fight Won't Happen At 50-50"

[THE REED]

Dude, I am probably the biggest Floyd fan... Met him, took a picture with him.... Have HUGE parties when he fights....

But this **** is getting on my ****ing nerves man.... To say that it doesnt get under YOUR skin, just means you are more a fan of a fighter than the sport....

agreed...........

[el malo]

Who the hell cares what the split is if the money's good? Does everything have to be a pissing match? If Floyd gets 15 million and Pacquiao gets 15 million, who cares? These guys need to grow up. Since when did boxing become more about splits and weights than strategy and preparation. These guys act like if they don't get a majority, they come off as a lesser fighter.

splits and weights are becoming the downfall of boxing.

agreed...........

manny will give floyd 55% but forces the fight to be at 135

[WhoreUs]

Then this fight will almost certainly never happen. I believe he's too proud of, full of himself to take an even split, let alone less than. Shame, really.

shame but i'll take a jmm-pac 3 and may-mosley.

at least shane gets a nice payday before retiring.

[D.I.E.S.E.L]

Dude I dont want to see him lose.... Flyd is my favorite fighter because of his skills...

But this **** is getting ******.... JMM?? I guess.....

Come on, you got tons of fighters out there that will cement your legacy, and JMM?? Really... O well, but to now say that no 50/50 is saying you wont fight him....

Dayum.. ****in Floyd.... Legacy and a name is more than money....

Fight someone... You got Paul, Shane, Pac, Cotto.... Hell, I would even settle for Clottey.. Jsut fight someone of note... Not a blown up JMM.....

No. Fck that, I want to see him lose, he has to lose to fall off that high horse he's riding on, flat on his face. and I don't see what's wrong with him fighting JMM. lol, he came out of retirement and he got a pack of lions looking at him like a gazelle. So being as it may **** looks crazy, and he has to defend himself with the ego. The ego is now interfering with him doing what he needs to do. What he has to do.

Thats the thing, Im not being a selfish fan, of course I want to see the fight, but look at it from Floyd's perspective, which nobody does, put yourself in his place, how would you feel if you sold the most ever and dont get bigger than 50/50.

Thats whats wrong with selfish fans, look, many talked about how they wished fighters fought like Gatti, he's dead now, and you would hardly know it really. There should be more talked about him, alot more, alot more, a heck of alot more, which is why I say fighters should fight for themselves and not fans, when youre gone they dont give you what you deserve, they are only living for the moment.

I have to agree. These guys are becoming more like Divas than
representing as warriors.

[fightfan_79]

Floyd was a part of the biggest fight in boxing, anybody who doesnt thiink he deserves more just doesnt like him.

That doesn't = to being entitled to a large % of the purse....that fight WAS the biggest SELLING fight in history, but did the fight ITSELF deliver? As Whitney Houston so eloquintley put it..."HELL TO THA NAW".

Being a part of a "sale" and actually delivering the goods are two totally different things....50/50 is more than fair. Especially considering he just came out of retirement, and postponed the fight due to "injury".

I use to be one of Floyd's biggest fans, but then money and fame took over....

[UnDeniable]

Mayweather and Pac are idiots

Its a shame that arguably the two best fighters in the sport care so much about money

[Delagz]

he will demand more money for the fight, because he need money for the IRS.....lol
Smart Mayweather .....
