      It is easy to talk smack when you think your PPV did 2 million. When the 1.2 number comes out, it's "OK, we can do the 50/50. Where do I sign?"

      If Roach offers 50/50, its becasue he knows that 50% is a GREAT deal for his little frog-looking southpaw.
      its also a good deal for ur ape looking boyfriend...

        They "deserve more' but they are willing to give away 50% out of the kindness of their hearts, huh?

          Man, there isn't any way Floyd deserves a 50/50 split in the first place. JMM was a draw that had a lot of Mexicans support him, so Floyd fans shouldn't be acting like Mayweather was the back bone of that promotion because he wasn't. I think Freddie Roach is crazy for even suggesting a 50/50 split after the Pacquiao-Cotto fight did bigger numbers than Floyd's fight with JMM and it drew millions more dollars at the gate as well. Floyd just tries to piggy back off of other fighters' stardom. And if he budges at a 50/50 split than it's Floyd who is the *****.

With the new revelation of 1.25 PPVs for Pac/Cotto Floyd as a businessman should accept nothing less than 60/40. Floyd will single handedly promote this fight. Manny's tired ass "I just wanna do my job" routine is tired and boring as hell. Money go get your money. Your the man and you deserve 60/40 and if they get fly with you, you should demand 65/35. I would love to see this fight but if Manny was in Floyd's position his little greedy ass would be demanding the same.
            he wnts 50/50 so that the negotiations will be done and they could fight already...

            roach wants this real bad so that pac will beat the **** out of floyd and make u his *****!!

He might have gotten 50-50 if the Cotto numbers had been 1.6 million as Roach and Arum "expected", but now Pacquaio will be lucky to get a 45-55 split. He can turn it down and fight Marquez for 65 percent of the money, but he will still make less than he would taking the 45 percent against Mayweather.
                if talks break down they are fighting mosley and floyd can retire again...

                and ull be gone by then...ur only here for floyd anyway...

                  if floyd was a draw how come he only made 1 mil on a mexican day with a mexican fighter????

                    Fact is this...

                    The fight will be at 147, the purse will be 50/50

                    I wish they’d all hurry up and exhale ego quickly and just sign the contract as this is obviously how it’ll be.

                    Sometimes all this ego inflating gets right on my ****.
                    thats right, 50/50 split and at 147 , no if's no but's , no questions.

                      As Roach said he thinks PAC deserves more, but 50/50 is the only way to get the fight done.So no more excuses! If PBF don't accept he's ducking PAC plain and simple.
