    Think about how much he made in his Oscar, Haton and other fights before he retired. It only took him less than two years spending all he earned and went bankrupt after that. So how many years do you think will last those 40 million now? Floyd extravagant and flashy life style and throwing money at strip clubs like nothing..let say maybe less than a year? What do you think?

        No, it doesn't. This is boxing...not golf or tennis.

            Like I said on the other thread, Floyd will ask atleast 70/30 in his favor to run ofcourse. If he fights Pacman for atleast 55/45 then I might be wrong that he isn't gay.

              The numbers are the same that Ellerbe/Schaefer/Oscar/Taffet have been saying. So it's not "new news" to them. They are negotiating already based on that same info.

              If anything, I think the report merely helps the objective casual boxing fan understand why Floyd deserves 60%.

              If they thought Manny was the bigger draw, would they really 'give' Floyd 50%?
              all 3 of these ^^^^.

                      Can't see floyd giving manny 50/50 split given the huge difference in the numbers that factor in to purse split.
