    Manny will have to go back to injecting steroids and making up these catch-weight joke of fights.
    Yup he can knock out pac easy.. But wait why is it taking to damn long to sign the contract to fight pac. He will earn tons of money. It's an easy fight for him why can't he just fight him for all the marbles when he knows he can beat him easy?

    You see there's no logic there right. If I was a fighter and I know I can beat him easy. Ofcourse i will fight him for the large paycheck that I will be getting.

    But for some reason your fighter is chickening out.. Why is that? Hmmm.. scared perhaps??

        I think this sport should place more emphasis on the boxing itself. At this level there is plenty of money to make them both a lot of money. Even if PBF is the bigger ppv draw, there is no question that this is the biggest fights out there for either of them. So the numbers they pull for this one will be bigger fighting one another than they would be elsewhere. You cannot compare previous ppv numbers against Josh Clottey, or even Shane Mosley, when planning this fight. They are both vital to the magnitude of this fight, they both bring an enormous amount to the table, this should be a 50-50 split. If I were either fighter, I would decline less than 50-50. In terms of boxing, the pundits are so split that this is a 50-50 fight across the board. So if one guy is willing to place making more money over making this fight happen, let him go fight bums for safe money like Haye, Khan etc. They both need to remember that sport needs to be entertainment to exist at anything like their level, and this is the fight that the fans want. That should count for something, too.

              In the real world if you leave your job for 2 years you cant come back requesting the same money as when you left.

              Why does PBF expect to get a lifetimes wage in one nights work? If he wants a regular income he should work as a pro fighter, fighting regularly.

              50/50 is fair. PBF has a lot to gain from this fight credibility wise. So dont deserve so much money.
