Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Rejects Bigger Revenue Split For Mayweather

[Pacquiao'd]

Simple question for you....

1) When they originally negotiated terms last year, they agreed to a 50-50 split. Now did Mayweather have bigger numbers then? YES

2) Continuing along those lines, he still has bigger PPV numbers now, so what is the difference between NOW AND THEN?

1: floyd did everything to make the fight happen and pac walked.
2: the difference between now and this is that this is June 2010 not Dec 2009.

shouldnt be hard for you to understand. what happened during nego. of dec 2009 is null and void, especially when pac walked away and floyd states all that from the past is off the table.

is that simple enough for you

@Sugar Q: I believe Floyd has to pay his corner and people himself. The bottom line is he can't afford to pay that kind of money, he is still in debt. Manny has all the money he needs and then some, Floyd blew all his...

Why can't they just agree on 50/50? They're going to make more money than I will ever see in my life anyway

@Sugar Q: Oh really, both Mosley vs. ODLH fights were huge... I never paid to watch Floyd have a sparring session with OLDH, Hatton or JMM, but I paid for Mosley and so did everyone I know. Mosley was the one guy I thought had a chance and he caught Floyd but couldn't finish him. So, I believe Mosley had to bring 30-40% of the people, you take that out of 1.3. million PPVs and compare all 700K for Pacman, it's pretty damn close....

Did you pay to see Mosley fight anyone else?

Consult switchbackorthodox before engaging me with BS! your a long time member and alt farmer. So i would love to strip off your autographed Pac-Man Punch night gown and spank you for all to see. But its friday, I need to finish these last 50 questions and go party. I might return later.

What you talking about willis? Alt farmer??? dang boy you loosing your head. I know nothing of what you speak. Switchbackorthodox? WTF... You are too much of a ***** for me brah.

Floyd blew all his money and wants to make it all up in one fight. That is fine, but last I heard, he was going to walk away for a year or two. If that happens, what will we think then....

Floyd agreeing to 50% would be like him giving away the first three rounds.

@Sugar Q: Okay, you wanna go that route, Manny has made a ****load of money on endorsements, being on the cover of Time Magazine, making a movie and every Filipino I know has Manny shirts, etc. How many of Floyd's fans have that kind of buying power. The deal is this! If somebody wants 60-40, let it be the winner. That will be the only way the fight get's done...

My dude I work in entertainment Top Rank paid for TIME. Why else would time put a fighter from a 3rd world country on the cover. Those covers cost about 95 grand. TIME did not pay Manny sorry to bust your bubble. Manny is paying Top Rank and Golden Boy then Roach on top of that. Floyd knows what Manny makes because he was under the same contract with Top Rank until Oscar taught him how to make real money. Manny is making peanut over there and barely nothing over here.

Ummm..Tyson blew 300 million in less than 10 years..LOL
