Floyd: The fight should be in Vegas not Dallas
Pac: Ok

Floyd: We need blood testing
Pac: OK 24 days before

Floyd: No, 14 days
Pac: Ok.

Roadblock after roadblock. LOL

Dude, can't you read brotha?

If you can't say, "7 Weight Divisions, 7 Titles, 3-time Fighter Of The Year, and Fighter Of The Decade", then shut the "F" up.

Titles and Awards have nothing to do with ppv sales. Mayweather has no belt and is not FOTD but sells more than your "precious". Pac fans love awards be happy with the awards and leave the money to PBF.

I think "Check-Facts" likes to fancy himself as head of the Mayweather PR team and as his personal accountant, except he keeps showing up to work (like Milton from the movie office space), forgetting that he's not on the payroll.

Probably wouldn't. The key note to understand is that if they did move on, Floyd makes more money than Pac especially if Pac moves on to fight Cotto (again) and or Marg-a-cheato. Pac wont make the money Floyd would make fighting anyone else. Floyd will, not as much but he would make more than Pac. Its already been proven. It's leverage.

Do people forget that about 6 months ago Floyd said this would happen? Now everyone's shocked? Pac should have agreed the 1st time when he would have got 50%, the 10 million weight penalty and his 14 day cut off that he so conveniently agrees too now. Let alone location, glove size and ring size that he requested. All Floyd wanted was 14 day OST. Yet he ran as fast as he could to court. Now look at him, back tracking trying to get what he already turned down.

At the end of the day I personally think 50-50 IS fair. The only problem is just as soon as Floyd would agree to that, then Pac will say that he doesn't agree to this no cut off issue and we start all over yet pac keeps saying he's ready. Ready for what? To counter offer?

"Pac's not ready for a fighter like Mayweather" - Master coach and 3X trainer of the year Freddie Roach

"Shane Mosley is too good" - Master coach and 3X trainer of the year

"Timothy Bradley is not promoted enough" - Bob Arum (Yet Clottey was?)

So you basically said that there's no other fight that Floyd could make doing as much as 60% fighting Pac. Then why did you ask - "What other fight would Pac make equivalent to 40% of the cut fighting Floyd?

A lot of NSB pac fans are swinging off pacs nutts and refuse to look at facts. Manny had his chance to accept a favorable deal. Now he's mad because he realized he fu.cke.d up. It's too late better take what he can get while this deal is on the table. I'm sure he can get 50/50 if he agreees to the full OST.

What other fight can FLoyd get and make as much as 50% fighting Pac?

[WESS]

Roadblock after roadblock. LOL

You both easily seem to forget that Mayweather was the one that said OK to everything that Pac requested. Pac was the one that said no to Mayweather. Pac ran as fast as he could to court and attempted to sue everyone because of hurt feelings (no wonder MMA points and laughs). He wanted to fight in a court room and not in a ring. Fact

You both easily seem to forget that Master coach and 3X trainer of the year said that "Pac wasn't ready for a fighter like Mayweather". He also said that "Shane Mosley is too good" and Bob Arum Pac's promoter said Timothy Bradley isn't promoted enough. But Clottey was? Point is they pick and choose who they think they can beat. Something Mayweather gets bashed for no?
