Pacquiao insists on 50/50 split (Latest Interview)

[Kingstan315]

Are all pac fans like you? would they rather see an easy manny in a rematch he won easily rather than the biggest fight in 30 years because manny isn't getting a 50/50 split? Are you serious?

not to mention if he fights cotto again he most likely will not make as much as if he to 30% fighting floyd...

[big_james10]

Pacquaio doesn't want the fight!!!

[Ray*]

That is pretty funny also, how soon people forget.

Its funny because people try to paint manny like a saint, Pac has to be the only top fighter apart from Hopkins that i have seen with comments like "The fight is off if i dont get %"...... But then we have people saying the guy doesnt fight for money, yeah right and i dont mind him getting or asking for whatever he thinks he deserve but the man isnt a saint and he fights for himself and family no one else.

yeah. i am a person before a boxing fan, so i wanna see people to be treated fairly. Pac overcame much harder obstacles than this overrated Mayweather. Im telling you now if Pac-May becomes a reality Pac knocks him out within 5 rounds. Ill bet all my points on it. Floyd ur now so famous in the Phils because of ur cowardice,

they should go 50/50 ppv buys and a bonus for the winner, if it is via KO, even more of a bonus, that way both ****ers are trying

Aslong as both sides try and get it made in good faith I have no real issue with what happeans. Both sides have their beliefs on what they want and they need to compromise to get there and both sides need to recognize whent eh other side compromises.

I don't overly care what Floyd makes but I can understand from the number why he would demand a bit more, but for Manny I would only agree to a small advantage to Floyd an only if I gained other things from it. If Floyd agress to 50/50 well Manny has to man up and do what he doesn't want to do.

Really though they need to get the fight made, it should not be this difficult to split up 100 million between two guys.

Seems to me people are for 50/50

That is pretty much it exactly.

[rommel357]

All of you *****s are just ridiculous. 50/50 was fine and fair back in March, but now all of a sudden it's unfair and Floyd should get more, please tell me why. If it's the same old excuse that Floyd has a higher PPV sale, like i said before, that was the same situation already back in March and even before that. So why the **** it should change now.

[Kingstan315]

cant compare Marquez to Clottey

1.15m - 1.25m, manny won that one



yes, Floyd Joy did beat Manny here, but remember, Hatton was undefeated and when Hatton faced Manny, he was no longer as big of a draw as he was pior to facing Floyd Joy

2.44 m - 1.25m Isnt this the record holding PPV event?

All I am saying is that Manny never left the sport, Floyd Joy left, you can come back and expect to still be the best, you have to climb back up there.


IDK, maybe he is hiding something

ok ask you this, who needs to beat who to show they are the best?
Manny killed both of the same fighters that Mayweather fought

Yes, Floyd Joy beat JMM, blew him out

If your refering to ODLH and Hatton, Both fighters were in better condition when fighting Floyd.. Be it mentally or Physically...

I fyou feel manny will win fine. As for treated fairly please read my posts. Floyd has proven to generate more at the gate, tv ratings, and ppv sales than manny. From a ppv standpoint alone he has generated about $300 mil more than manny. Is it fair for him to split the purse? Is manny splitting the purse with cotto? he didn't last time.

Harder obstacles? Thats your opinion because you like manny. That has nothing to do with business negotiations.

No matter who we like or don't like, the purse split is about economics. Any way you cut it floyd generates more money than manny. If you really want to be fair!
