What will keep Pacquiao vs Mayweather from happening (if they both win that is)

[Horus]

Packy already gave the best fights to the fans.. Mayweather?

he should be the one to take lesser cut.

Floyd doesnt "owe" the fans anything thing either.
He paid his dues also.
Floyd has been fighting at a higher level than Pacquiao his whole career.

While Pacquiao was getting Lay out by nobodies. Floyd was winning Fighter of the year awards.


You need to remember Pacquiao JUST RECENTLY became considered the a top 10 fighter.

He recently just got on the Pound for Pound list in 2004..when he has been a pro just 1995..

From a General Point of view, Pacquiao has not sold more P.P.V than Mayweather when fighting the same opponent.

From a General Point of view, Pacquiao is not a complete fighter. When you compared him to Mayweather.

From a General Point of view,
Floyd Mayweather is more Prestigious than Manny Pacquiao.

Floyd has been considered a great fight since 1998, he turned pro in 1996.
Manny Pacquiao has recently just became consider a great fighter in 2004.
he turn pro in 1995.

  (http://www.boxrec.com/media/index.ph..._Ratings:_1999)
  
  
• Three Years Atop of that List: 2005,2006,2007, End Jun/2008 (retire)

So contrary to your belief it is Mayweather who has paid his dues to the sport of boxing. When Pacquiao lost to a past his prime eric morales Mayweather was still a champion. When Pacquiao got that draw against JMM Mayweather was still champion.
When Pacquiao was getting Knocked out Mayweather was still champion.

Mayweather has been fighting at a high level for his whole career and be ranked highly his whole career.
Can we say the same about Pacquiao?

So Pacquiao should give this fight to the fans and take the lesser cut. because at the end of the day he still will recieve his biggest payday with Floyd Mayweather.

they both are in the same situation. there's no one either one can fight that will get each other the same payday. therefore 50/50 or else floyd will end up fighting peterson.

Peterson is promoted by Arum will never happean~, Mosley sure Peterson no way. For Floyd to fight anyone promoted by Arum there needs to be huge $$$$$$ involved, and Arum owes Floyd millions of dollars and that is why they have ongoing litigation, to squash that **** there has to be a good reason and Peterson ain't it.

You're a joke no wonder so many people hate you.

we already had this argument..

Manny should take less money for a number of reasons.
but of 1 of them is because he is the so called people's champion.
So he should fight this fight for the people and not worry are a few millions of dollars.
We all know what floyd is about. Money.
Like the old saying goes.
Dont gamble with a gambler
and dont try to cheat a cheater.

Manny Pacman Pacquiao should not try emulate Floyd Money Mayweather
when it comes to money.

Manny do with you do best and that is fight. and Let bob Arum and Floyd Mayweather work out the money.

Manny should take this fight for the fans and his next fight with whoever he can bosshog the money.

Manny isn't trying to emulate anybody.. just trying to get what he deserves.
& Manny is the peoples champion but that doesn't mean he should fight for free either.
It simply means he gives the people what he wants when he fights and reps his country well.

[roxy]

Purse/ducking can be the same. Floyd was offered a 50-50 split which is more money than any fight out there and refused it. Some times outpricing yourself makes it easier to avoid dangerous opponents.


Great now that other Girl that has a crush on Mayweather is going to bad karma me me again for not loving Mayweather. lol

[DE100]

People are bringing up 50/50, when has Arum/Pac said they would take 50/50? Arum said 65/35 and 60/40 for Pac, find me where they said they would take 50/50.

pacquiao should do this, pacquiao should do that

and what of mayweather? just get whatever the hell he wants?

fight for the fans is good and all but pac's health is on the line...in this case...it's high risk=high reward. thats why pac shouldn't buy into mayweather's and ur crap.

[Addition]

People are bringing up 50/50, when has Arum/Pac said they would take 50/50? Arum said 65/35 and 60/40 for Pac, find me where they said they would take 50/50.

There's a search button. Use it and you'll find it somewhere.

There's a search button. Use it and you'll find it somewhere.

I have I seen 65/35, 60/40, and Arum saying things like it will be a "cold day in hell" before Floyd even gets a 50/50. And Called Mayweather "Delusional" for even thinking he may get a 50/50 split. Nothing from Arum saying he would take 50/50.
