    Marley :Mayweather-pacquiao fight getting made but doubt it's 50-50

    http://www.examiner.com/examiner/x-5...h_twitter:5699

    The purse split has to be 50-50...so Arum says but we're never going to see the contracts so what harm is a little, white like here.

    Nobody told Pac to fight Clottey, his gamble back fired and we knew that after he left the table that the same offer wouldnt be on the table again. One thing for sure is Pac has a bigger following and Mayweather has been getting the bigger PPV numbers and is the bigger attraction. After Pac looses his beloved fans will hopefully still love him like Hattons fans. Sorry Pac you can still make alot of money but 50/50 is out of the window. I still think that Pac couldve fought Mosley but he and Roach said that Mosley was too good and to big of a threat. When you snooze you lose. No question about it. Lets be totally honest Mayweather will do all of the promoting for the fight by talking trash and hyping it up because we know Pac want talk trash and he speaks little english IMO, WELL NOT ENOUGH TO ENSURE WELL OVER TWO TO THREE MILLION PPV's. The fight is already the biggest in the sport since Oscar and Floyd, notice I said Floyd and someone else because Manny fought Oscar and the numbers werent the same.

          Man, I don't want to start getting too excited but reading this makes me very happy. Totally different from the Bob during the last neogations. He always seem pissed when talking about Money May. Maybe this time around, he finally found some bomb ass marijuana. +100 to Bob's dealer for getting him the top quality buds. If this fight happens, its because of that guy!

            But maybe Arum is happy because he knows he's gonna do what he can to place Manny in an all Top Rank bout in Dallas, against a guy made for Pac to look good against....

                All this fight needs is a news headline that says: "PACQUAIO-MAYWEATHer OFFICIAL FOR NOVEMBER" and that's all the promotion they need. People aren't going to buy the PPV because they hear Floyd running his mouth. This is one of those fights that need no promotion. It speaks for itself. They have more than enough press with this drug testing fiasco. 40-40, winner takes the extra 20. That is the only fair way to deal with it. Either that or 50-50.
