      my man, these Pacquiao fans are bringing up no facts or points. They just are pointing out that he can walkaway or he doesn't need Mayweather.

      NEWSFLASH : If Mayweather wins May 1st, he will be the #1 WW + #1 P4P fighter, along with outselling him vs 3 different opponents and outselling Pacquiao vs Cotto. It would be a hard case for Pacquiao fans to argue otherwise.

        Mayweather has outsold Pacquiao with 3 common opponents, and if his fight with Mosley does better than 1.3 PPV buys, why would he accept a 50/50 split with Pacquiao?

        Also add in the #1 WW ranking to his resume if he beats Mosley, he has much more leverage and rightfully so.
        Why do you care... you earning a percentage?

          Would that be fair?
          pac wont have any leverage.

          the same way cotto didnt.

          floyd is the one fighting the legit WW champ and will win the belt at the proper limit, not a catch weight, floyds numbers will be higher, and will prolly be considered P4P#1 after beating mosley.

          pac has no leverage

              not when floyd is going to produce higher numbers...and last negotiations will have nothing to do with the upcoming ones.

              they will start with a blank slate

                thats great. more money for floyd and mosley.
                only parties' opinions that matter are floyd's camp and top rank.
                top rank wont back down from 50/50.

                  That maybe so but you are asking why Floyd would be willing to agree to 50%.

                  What does Floyd care about how fans see Pac?

                  He is trying to make alot of money being stubborn to somehow prove he is boss in these negotiations is a bad business move and a risk that could lose him the biggest payday he can get.

                  Pac might just say he is tired of wasting time with this guy and just say **** it, I am not going to waste time with this guy if he is going to make what he views as unreasonable demands.

                      doesnt matter, pac wont be in a position to call shots. he sort of was in that position last time and thats why floyd compromised somuch

                      floyd will be rightfully entitled to being the shot caller.

                      pac then can duck again, its only going to further hurt pac
