Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Rejects Bigger Revenue Split For Mayweather

[Pacquiao'd]

That wasn't my original question. My original question was simple....removing PPV numbers from the argument, which fighter holds more mainstream appeal? Taking PPV numbers out of it, it's a simple question. But I'm guessing the real issue here, is that Floyd fans don't want to answer that question because they know where it would lead and FYI mainstream popularity spurs revenue...live gate, selling out stadiums and merchandise.

haha, you sound so ******.

We will never know how Manny got that cover but I do know that publicist are paid to get covers by any means and I also know what major magazines charge and I don't see a reason for a magazine like TIME going after Manny though I could be wrong. I'm sure the magazine with Manny didn't post big numbers or we would've heard about it but they certainly didnt pay him to be on the cover.

Lol they weren't paid for the cover, his story just happens to be interesting and compelling to some. The better question to ask is, why would Time, S.I. and 60 minutes run a feature on an international sports figure, rather than the supposed best boxer on the planet?

no you dumbass, pac took a recently vacant belt from cotto.

cotto lost his WW champ belt and lineal title to Marg who lost to shane and shane got whooped up on by floyd.

floyds the lineal champ of the WW division, took shanes belt then threw it back in his face tell him he could keep that POS. that belt manny has is a paperweight. nor will it be apart of negotiations which should tell you it has no value

LOL!

Cotto defended it vs. Clottey. It's no longer vacant.

Manny beat Cotto, the Cotto that beat Shane, the Shane that beat the lineal champ Marg.

Man with belt = champion
Man with no belt = challenger

You understand yet?

Is it because I speak proper English? I understand how that could upset you, by reading some of your prior posts.

I think that we should just relax, sit back, and see what happens here.

Let's not be too hard on Manny at this stage, or on Mayweather for that matter, it just sounds like the first offer/counter-offer.

If Mayweather wants 55%, which is what I believe, then of course he will start at 60-40. And no way should Manny accept that.

I might be wrong here.....
but this negotiation looks to be heading in the right direction, I am actually very confident that this fight will happen.

Here we have someone who has a clue of the art of negotiation....

Well my dude enough said cause your officially an a**hole. You would boycott Floyd for fighting Martinez or Williams but you wouldn't boycott Manny for Cheato or Cotto 2? Goes to show that you have other issues other than boxing. You should get some help for that.

Funny thing about assuming is you make an ass out of ya self.Instead of asking me would I boycott Pac's as well you assumed which makes you an ass Sugar.But to answer the question you did not ask I would boycott both brother but let's not forget Floyd is the one making this fight hard at the moment.50/50 is fair get it on.You may not care about seeing great fights but I do.

[peyk-peyk]

Floyd yet again put a roadblock for the fight not to happen. Guys let's just accept the fact that Floyd is scared to death of losing his beloved "0."

Funny all this *****s **** wanted Pac vs OST before instead of Pac vs Floyd. Now after Pac beat to death Floyd invented useless OST. Now they wanted Pac vs money split instead of Pac vs Floyd again. Again?

First it was the glove size.. then it was who entered the ring last.. then it was OST.. now it's PURSE size (not surprised).. ****in groupies.

50/50 sounds fair.. I just want the fight made, I could give a **** if pac takes less..
