    Nothing controversial here. Pac probably does edge May in live gate but PPV May has the advantage. Holyfield going with the fighter he can identify with. Now lets ask SRL,Sweet P,DelaHoya, and Ali(translator) who will win.I guaran-damn-tee they all say May.

      Dude, believe me, this fight will be huge without Mayweather's big mouth.

        Of course it will, the hardcore fan will want to watch this fight to see who's the best. My point was simply that just because your the good guy with the enjoyable style doesn't mean your putting the asses in the seats, history has shown that the loud mouthed ****y son of a ***** tends to sell the fights, & i'm sure that there will be a lot of casual or non fans who will watch this fight to see if Mayweather can back his mouth up, or just to see him get knocked out, either way it's $$$ spent.

          I don't agree with evander about the purse because the money generated from live gate for the floyd's fight is usually higher than pacquiao's. Also the ppv money is higher than pac

            Everybody entitled to their own opinion. So it is what it is. When it comes to splits opinions don't matter. Its all about numbers.

            But believe everybody in fight games hates floyd. They tired of him talkin ****. They also tired of him making all that paper. People will continue to build up fighters to beat floyd. Just how **** is.

                If you're saying Mayweather deserves the bigger split, then this fight will never happen. That's like slapping Pac and his promoter. If you fans enjoy insisting on this PPV thing, so be it. Enjoy while it lasts.

                    Evander HolyField Shows his Support for Pacquiao.

                    link: http://www.8countnews.com/news/125/ARTI ... 06-24.html by Brad Cooney dated 24June 2010

                    8CN- It appears that Floyd wants a 60-40 split... Holyfield cuts in

                    EH- I don't think that's going to work. It's NOT FLOYD THAT WILL BRING THE CROWD. What makes this fight bigger than life is the good thing and bad thing. When people see Pacquiao, they look at him as the good guy, they want to see him Win Morally. These are the people that don't like Mayweather, so what make this fight big is the ultimate good and evil. It is Surprisingly that two small guys like that can bring it out. It Only Happens ONCE in a WHILE. Pacquiao has a big Crowd people that wants to see him win because of his Good Atttitude. Whoever he fights, he Gives it his All. He's Not going to go there and just put on a show that's not productive. I DON'T THINK THAT
                    60-40 IS GOING TO WORK.
                    why are certain words capped? and why are words capped in a middle of a sentence?

                      Another ATG ****ting on Floyd. Every sane person knows Floyd is the villian in all of this. Only crackheads and blacks still support the Mayweathers.
