Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Rejects Bigger Revenue Split For Mayweather

[Red Rebel]

Floyd should ask for 90/10 split in his favor... That will surely keep his record in safe... He should call out Katsidis and fight him at 144, that will be fair.

[WESS]

Are people surprised? WTF, we heard this back in February before Mayweather technically broke down Mosley.

Do people forget that easy? I also like how "Ronnie" says that Pac agreed to a 14 day cut off back in March.... lol. No, Pac walked away from the fight in March. He also went to fight in court and not in the ring.

Pac's "attempting" to agree to a magical number of 14 that doesn't exist since the beating of Mosley.

Anyway the fight will be made.....

again with the racist connontations. See this is the level of ******ity shown by a vast majority of Pac fans everywhere. No wonder Manny takes advantage of these ******ed hoards.

common' ...! there are many annoyance from both sides and not only from PAc fans! You'll be childish confronting them much more not the proper basis to become partisan.

Another demand by the COWARD to ***** out in this fight. First if not for his useless invented OST that him only will benefit. We should already seen this fight long time ago. Now another road block he put around after the first one Pac already cleared? WTF!

Team Pacquiao & this author dont know **** about the negotiation. So what they wrote here are irrelevant. Maybe assuming. Since floyd brought in the open that he want a bigger share, I think he should earn it the hardway. 60-40 if he win. 45-55 for Pac if Pac win.

I dont think Terry Trekas is the best person to ask this question considering the history (or lack of it) that him and Nate Campbell had with Team Pacquiao.

I think his opinion is way more valid than yours or mine. But since u chimed in, give me your opinion.

But I would much rather someone who has an inkling of the bizzness of boxing.

[tredh]

That still remains to be seen because like I said Martinez and Berto carries no name recall among casual sports fans(like Oscar and Mosley), nor do they have passionate fanbase (like the Mexicans for Marquez, and the English for Hatton).

I don't care about Berto I know he brings nothing to the table he is out of the equation to me nice fighter but just no. Martinez on the other has a name in boxing. Boxing fans know Martinez and everybody know PBF you put that together for the middleweight title and you got yourself a money maker.

You keep mentioning Marquez and fanbase. Where was this passionate Mexican fanbase when Marquez fought Manny to the low tune of 400,000? Marquez doesn't have a passionate fanbase at all. Does Marquez have fans of course he does but he doesn't have a fanbase.

Let me ask you this how many PPV view buys do you think the Marquez vs Diaz fight will do?

[DeadScared]

70-30

70-30 to the winner! how's that?

Nate Campbell has been chasing Pacquiao since the time he moved up at lightweight. Unfortunately, according to them, Pac has ducked any connotation of a fight with Nate.

Nate was actually respectful to Pac after winning the lightweight title against David. They even wrote him a public letter, which circulated in the boxing forums, respectfully asking Pac to unify the LW titles with Nate to determine the true LW king.

Unfortunately it fell on deaf ears from team Pac. Since then, nothing but bashing statements had been heard from Campbell and his handlers in any topic related issues concerning Pac. I dont blame them though, I think they lost any semblance of respect from Pacquiao when he didnt fight Campbell at LW. I dont totally agree with them but I know where they are coming from.

As far as my opinion on this subject, I already gave mine. All you have to do is just backread.

I've said it before, these Mayweathers clearly want none of Pac.

Team Pacquiao needs to leave these clowns alone. It's futile.

It's as if Team Pac is asking for a huge favor without anything in return. If Mayweather really wants the fight, either for money, or to prove he's better and greater, or please fans, or just for the heck of proving he's a man, then the fight would have happen a long time ago.

I have a feeling that GBP folks themselves would finally get sick of these clowns and start letting some of their horses to negotiate with Arum. Berto or Marquez are possible candidates for Mayweather replacement.

The Pac team and fans need to shift their focus on another fighter who is willing to fight. This Mayweather saga needs to end as soon as possible. It's sickening.
