Why a new deal?

[badass316]

I don't know Jab,

Some people don't want the fight to happen. They just want Floyd to win negotiations even though they have no stake in it.

LMAO! And that's pretty much the truth, at least from what I've seen around here.

[Tamis!]

It's just even for both camps!

Floyd saying next time no cut-off, when he said that, there we're no negotiations, he just said it to the media.

Pac's team accepted the old deal, Floyd fans blasting Team Pac for going to the media...

See the double standards?

[Ray*]

Well we dont know whats going on yet to make judgements, so far only one team is talking to the media and thats Team pac, We all need to relax and hope the fight gets made.

Floyd hasn't made any recent statements on Pac accepting the 14 days, but he did mention in I think April that if his numbers were better the offer is off the table.

I think its a greed and ego thing on both parts. I see both sides, one more than the other because I never bought the excuses from team Pac. But I still see both sides looking to get the upper hand in the neg.

Its a fact that Floyd did offer it in Feb and Pac declined
Its a fact that Pac has just now accepted the 14 days
But its not yet a fact that Floyd won't accept it, so let's just see.

This is very true. But to hear most Floyd fans talk about it, Pac doesn't deserve the "old deal" and SHOULD have to renegotiate to make this fight happen. How can any fan of the sport who truly wants to see this fight abide by this?

[Rudie Cant Fail]

This is how it truly appears from most fans of Floyd. Instead of looking at this negatively and saying Pac had his chance, everybody should just be saying thank you, its about freakin time!

Thats pretty much how I see it. I dont know whether its an internet thing,but it seems to be acceptable these days to blindly agree with every little thing the fighter you support says. Thank god Floyd hasnt started talking about eating Manny's kids! There would be *****s chasing pinoys all over the place with knives and forks.

I cannot stand this kind of rabid fanboyism and Floyds fans seem to me to be guiltier of this than any other fighters set of fans.

Well, they are obviously getting a piece of floyd's pie. So that extra 5% in the 55/45 deal puts more money in their pockets.

Simply put, time and circumstances change how things work.

Floyd offers 14-day cut off, Pac turns it down. Floyd says offers off the table, Pac says i'll take it now. Done deal? Hell no!

Negotiations in regards to money always go in favour of the bigger draw. Pac fans will say its him, May fans will say its their man. PPV sales show its Mayweather. Why can Pac not accept the numbers and agree to 55-45?

When May said the offer is off the table, that means nomore. So, when you sit down you re-negotiate. You can say Floyd fans just back whatever their fighters says but the same **** happens with Pac too and his fans. Why cant they just say, accept the test/money and fight.

With the millions both of them are getting this is seriously taking the piss. This fight needs to happen for all boxing fans.

So you're saying Floyd deserves a new deal because he is greedy, is that it? Are you saying this fight shouldn't be made unless Floyd gets a bigger slice of the pie even though he'd make much more money with his original deal than he could fighting ANYONE else?

Thank you. This is what Pac fans dont understand.

How about Pac and cohorts asking for something that has now become unrealistic??

would you view that as not wanting the fight to happen?
