    Like anyone believes that ****. But if it's true, your friends suck.

      I mean steroid testing aside, they both DO want the fight, and I think they both realize either side isn't taking less than 50-50.
      I think this fight will happen. I'm sure both of them are aware just how important it is for their careers and legacies as much as the fact that they would both earn a Mike Tyson style payday for it. They arent getting that anywhere else.

        i think we lucked out the first time when they agreed to 50/50 and see the purse split as becoming the issue that we all thought it was gonna be

                  if mosley vs floyd significantly outsells cotto vs pacquiao.. i think an argument can be made for floyd..but if not..then it should be 50-50

                    It's a very good possibility.

                    I do remember Floyd coming out and saying if we do bigger numbers, 50-50 won't work. But Pacs camp can compare there 50k attendance vs. their 15k attendance.

                    Regardless, when they went into negotiations in December.. at that point Floyd outsold Pac with Oscar, 2.5 to 1.25(trying to remember specifics), with Hatton 1.8 to 800k, and with Marquez 1 million to 300k... and Floyd STILL went in there agreeing to 50-50, when he didn't have too.

                    I remember Ellerbe saying we checked out egos at the door because they realize how big fight is.

                    Some of those ppv numbers might be off by a small margin.. cant remember the EXACT #'s but they are close.

                      Ofcourse. Hell Floyd has outsold Pac in all there PPV's.

                      But the status of fight warrants a 50-50 split.
