    No...why should YOU care less? Don't impose your own values or interests on other people.

      anyway i'm with jro on this one, i find it impractical and borderline pathetic to stress myself with purse splits which won't affect me or my bank account. it's almost comparable to constantly watching lottery results without buying a single ticket in the first place.
      Ummid,

      where have you been?

          Out of the very little respect I have for Pacquiao, I can respect him just a little more.

                how about the third option

                i gain respect for manny for making the fight happen even though 50-50 split is probably the fairest.

                in all reality it should be 60-40 winner gets bigger split.

                    If Pac really wants the fight, I'll still respect him. Anyway that is for the purse, Pac can do a lot of money with endorsements, rights of airing the fight, etc.

                      Yes I'll respect him more for making the fight happen.

                      Purse splits is ****ing up boxing. Its pathetic that we miss out on some great fights because of ego trips. MMA as a sport may not be appealing, however, their business model is much greater than boxing. **** individual negotiations for each fight, **** promoters that shelter their fighters, **** all this bull**** that denies the fans of the fights we want.
