Let's get this straight. Pacquiao doesn't care about MONEY!

[DuttyAlacrity]

lols... that an example of pac not caring about the money, not the other way around.

pac was willing to leave all that money because of pride and because he didn't want to be disrespected.

right.... by not getting a bigger share of the purse

[Shattered Jaw]

How is fighting with 50:50, 8oz gloves and 147 a demand.....?

That's completely expected for the fight. Anything else would be a joke.

Floyd's the one making ridiculous demands with this OST. He thinks he is on some crusade. He's a ducker.

"Only Pacquiao walks away from a $40 million payday"

If you argue that he cares so much about money. The fight should have been made a long time ago.

The $40 million payday was far from Pacquiao's mind during the course of their negotiation. It was the random blood test that Floyd wanted. The fight broke down because Pacquiao didn't want to give in to Floyd's demand.

If Pacquiao cared so much about the money, he would have signed to fight already. The issue of debate for them has always been about random blood testing. Money isn't the problem.

of course pac cares about money, but that's not the only factor in his though process. for most of you mofos... its 50% *****, 50% money, and the money is just to get more *****. for pac its 30% money, 30% honor, 30% pride. you can't judge pac based on your level of greed and lust. pac conducts his business based on his own paradigm

I'm glad pac disclosed this information to you in such accurate detail
LOL

FLoyd just fought with 10 oz gloves with mosley
I find it weird that you think OST is a joke and ridiculous but your mouth is shut when it comes to 10 million for each pound he is over weight.

Pacquiao has hundreds of millions in the bank. I mean 40 million isn't really a big deal to him, it's not life changing money for him, he's got enough already and can easily make money from other things with just his name alone. I know it's alot of money to us guys here well most but it's really not alot for a man with hundreds of millions in the bank already, he doesn't need it.. Us guys here look at 40 million as a huge amount but think about it, for a guy like pacquiao he will never be short of money, it's really not an issue for him looking at it from pacquiao's perspective, it seems many are acting like it's life changing money for him it's NOT.

Pacquiao just doesn't want Mayweather to walk all over him and call the shots, i cant really blame the guy. I certainly wouldn't like to get walked all over without having getting your own say on the matter, it's just human nature not to get bossed around.

I hope the fight happens but i just had to say this, think about it guys for a man of pacquiaos calibre 40 million is not ALOT. He could easily retire now and live a wealthy life without or with the extra 40 million, it's not that big of a deal.

How the hell do you know how much money Pacquiao has in the bank. I almost stop reading right there. What kind of **** is that to say when you have NO damn clue whats in his bank account. Manny hasnt even made 100 million dollars in fight purses in his career. With taxes and Arum's 26%cut plus paying his TEAM and ENTOURAGE those amounts are even lower. So Gtfo with that 100's millions in the bank crap.

$2 million – against Erik Morales (January 2006)
$1 million – against Oscar Larios (July 2006)
$3 million – against Erik Morales (November 2006)
$2 million – against Jorge Solis (April 2007)
$2 million – against Marco Antonio Barrera (October 2007)
$11 million – against Oscar De la Hoya (December 2008)
$12 million – against Ricky Hatton (May 2009)
$14 million – against Miguel Cotto (November 2009)
$12 million- against Joshua Clottey (March 2010)

He's a ducker.

No, he isn't.

[DAN916]

Even a billionaire would take notice to 40 Million!!

if manny didn't care about money, then he wouldn't fight for money---if money wasn't important to him, then he wouldn't demand bigger spilts of the purses----

i made a thread and a few posts yesterday about you people saying this bull****---manny doesn't care about money---

a guy who demands his opponent to pay over 10 million dollars for every pounds he comes over 147 cares about money---no matter how you want to spin it----

that's greed----if manny didn't care about money, then he wouldn't have ducked shane twice through his trainer, saying the money wouldn't be big enough and he's too good----at least floyd keeps his honest--he cares about checks, and legacy comes next---

this is a job, of course a fighter cares about money, or else they would fight for free---or wouldn't care about the purse split---just look back at the hatton fight with manny---he threatened not to fight, if he didn't get the bigger spilt of the purse---

you'RE talking nonsense---
