    Legit reasons why Manny should get LESS then 50%...

    1) None of Mannys fights have broke any records on most buys.

    2) Floyd holds the record for most buys breaking Tyson vs Evander II record, by doing roughly 2.4 million buys.

    3) Manny Pacquiao is only p4p because floyd retired and gave that title up.

    4) Floyd is technically the WW champ after beating Mosley at the offical weight.

    5) Manny fought Oscar & Hatton after floyd so if u discredit those wins (cause most people say hatton was too small & oscar was too old. We know hatton didnt grow & Oscar didnt get no younger). So now we look at Cotto & clottey. Manny has only had one good fight at WW and that was Cotto (damaged).

    6) The purse split was already at 50/50 before he fought clottey & before Floyd fought Mosley. So after those 2 fights, how can it still be 50/50 when Floyd did roughly 1.4 million and Manny did a little over 700k?

    People need to stop basing their opinions off feelings and start using facts. Floyd is the biggest drawer since Oscar & everyone knows oscar was gonna get 70-30 when he fought pac, so how can he demand 50/50?

        Really?? Oscar fighting Manny at 147 who came in at 146 that fights at 154 up for over a decade. That fight was a one sided mismatch and a pure robbery. Pac vs Hatton was over after floyd knocked him out. Pac vs Cotto was an interesting fight which was fought at 145. Pac vs Clottey has to be the worst fight of 2010 if not the worst fight ive seen thus far. So if u feel like u getting yours money worth dont purchase Floyd vs Pac, because that will be a one sided win for floyd. Call it a stick up!

          Mayweather will do the vast amount of promoting for the fight.

          Did you see Mosley much on your T.V when he fought him? No! Mayweather was the main boxer out of the 2 doing the majority of the radio & tv interviews, it'll be the same with Pacquiao, this is without the PPV issue.

            cant really blame pac for fighting a turtle, right? dude only threw 1200+ punches.

            clottey robbed us of a great fight reason why he wont be fighting in big stage anymore.

                So you speak for the masses? If fans feel robbed after purchasing a Floyd fight, then why do they still purchase Floyd fights? Being that you seem to be the spokesman for every fan that purchases a Floyd fight, I'm sure you can answer this.

                  you had your chance to accept a 50/50 Split but you turned it down because you didn't want to take a blood test

                  #6 is 100% correct, Mayweather vs Mosley PPV doing 1.4 Million and Pacman vs Clottey 700k put Arum at a slight disadvantage as far as negotiations

                    the fact is that floyd sales more. There is nothing more to be said. People say his fights are boring but he continue to sale more. So obviously the majority of people feel different, cause he continue to sale more.
