If anyone deserves more sorry boys but its Pacquiao. 50/50 is fair, but if you ******s think Mayweather deserves more then you're very bad businessman. Mayweather was hot in 07 when he beat Oscar and Hatton. 08 & 09 belong to the Pacman. More accomplishments, more exciting, more fans, more global appeal, more sponsorships, more publicity, ill stop there. I dont care about your PPV numbers from 2007. Go buy a stock that was hot in 2007 if thats your logic. This is 2009 and sorry but Pacquiao is the kingpin. He's being compared to the legends of the sport, he stops a country when he fights, etc etc etc.

And if Floyd wont take 50/50 tell him to **** off. Pac has options, floyd does not. Floyd's the one left with something to prove. Pac has already exceeded ALL expectations and ate age 30 (2 years younger than Mayweather) has cemented himself higher up the ATG ladder then Floyd realistically can reach.

What you fail to recognize is Mayweather fans were not the big PPV buyers - it was the fans of his Opponents that bought the fight, Mayweather will get his butt handed to him, and Manny will get the bigger piece of the money. What Pacman has done in boxing FAR EXCEEDS ANYTHING MAYWEATHER HAS DONE....

What you fail to realize is thats why I put each of their common opponents on the same list so nobody can deny the facts. Had this been the other way around all you guys would be using those same stats to support your guy.

Same could be said about Pacman, but STILL he did less PPV's than "boring mayweather" against common opponents in Hatton, DLH and Marquez.

[Bhopreign]

All my points to anybody that Floyd will end up with the higher percentage.

[Bernie Madoff]

For starters here's just one spin, ODL and Hatton were major draws in Mayweathers fights.

...

Weren't they major draws for Pacquiao as well then?
