    How do you think the Forbes report will affect purse split for Mayweather/Pacquio

    We have all had a lot of discussions about how the money will be split. Just wondering what, if any, affect the income rankings put out by Forbes will have on negotiations. Since its clear Mayweather is the more lucrative fighter do you think its reasonable for the purse split to be equal?

    I think the Forbes report is just a reflection of Floyd being the much bigger draw. Realistic people knew that already. It is a report based on the current situation.

    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%.

        Which is why they beg for 50/50.

        If they thought Manny was the bigger draw, would they really 'give' Floyd 50%?

            Take it easy, burner. But you know what Floyd isn't, he's not the King of Asia, ruler of the universe, God of all Gods, Hero of all Heroes..

              I think whoever gives a **** on one man's earnings is simply acting like a 7 year old girl.

              Unless you are a part of the negotiating team, then you get a pass.

              If you're just one NSB Mr. Know-it-all posting a thread about Forbes and ****, then GTFOH!

                  Has Floyd ever been on the cover of the General Santos edition of Time?
