      This is an OPINION. Why don't you address what Horus said with some facts?(Cuz u can't, that's why!) If u can't do that, then be at least slightly objective and treat Pac exactly as u treat FM. Call him a duck and a coward for asking for 50-50!

        1.So I would like to know your ideas as to why is Team Pacquiao making them getting 50% of the revenue a sticking point in order for the fight to happen..???

        2.And Is Team Mayweather Justified in turning down Team Pacquiao demands due to the fact, that they through their body of work have earned the right to earned more money based on the fact they bring in more money.
        I think it's totally fair. Pacquiao has fought better current opposition over the past 3 years, was named fighter of the decade and also holds the record for most belts won in a division, not to mention his style is, for all intents and purposes, more fan friendly than Mayweathers.

        Now before you go assuming I'm a pacfan or mayweather hater, let me stop you right there and say I am neither. Truthfully, I prefer Mayweather's technique and skill over Pacquiao's. As a fan of boxing, I want the fight to be made. I want ego's put aside. PPV numbers don't mean **** to me or what caliber fighter you are. Pacquiao has made the concessions to the testing and both fighters stand to make a **** load of money. Quit screwing the fans who just want to see boxing at it's best and make the fight.

          Nothing you said had nothing to do with the question I presented in this thread and the facts I laid out.

          There is no statistical measure that Team Pacquiao can present that can show how they deserve and earned the right to %50 percent of all the revenue against Floyd Mayweather.

          Which is why I find it crazy how they made it a sticking point that they receive 50% or no fight !!!

          If they didn’t get 50% against De la Hoya why are they asking for against Mayweather???

          The number differents between Pac and Mayweather are almost the same as the number difference between De la Hoya and Pacquiao.


          and Pacquiao vs. De la hoya
          Pacquio $6 Million vs. De la Hoya $20 Million

          So once again, By team Pacquiao making 50% a sticking point, they are effectively letting us boxing fans know, they have no interest in this fight, unless they can receive money by all measures they have no merit to earn or be rewarded with, when they have a possible opponent who has undisputable claim backed by facts that they deserves more financial consideration based on what the facts tell us.

          Do you not feel, Team Mayweather is Justified in turning down Team Pacquiao demands due to the fact, that they through their body of work have earned the right to earned more money based on the fact they bring in more money.

            its all fact bro. floyd saw how pac made dlh quit and crushed hatton and he don't want none anymore. team mayweather making all kinds of excuses to duck the fight.

            50/50 is fair.

              Looks like more than a few have been put in their place. You notice how many "factual" opposing replies you are getting back?? Good thread!

                How is it fair?

                Because Pacquiao has got awards??? **** what does Awards have to do with Money generated.

                Did those awards help him only do 700 ppv buys his last fight?
                What you are arguing is very subjective.. in the fact that it can be disputed.

                Here what can not be disputed.
                Numbers and Facts.

                I want to see this FIGHT more than anybody, but By team Pacquiao making 50% a sticking point, they are effectively letting us boxing fans know, they have no interest in this fight, unless they can receive money by all measures they have no merit to earn or be rewarded with, when they have a possible opponent who has undisputable claim backed by facts that they deserves more financial consideration based on what the facts tell us.

                Why are they making 50% a sticking point??

                  yeah.. this is how it usually goes.
                  I present facts, and then I get called a hater for paying so much attention
                  to the facts.

                    I am basing a revenue split based on past money generated which includes PPV buys, and the money the fighter took in from those PPV buys.
                    i shouldve said revenue split, made a mistake. but same thing, its DUMB to base this on past guaranteed purses a fighter made which was your reply to one of my previous posts.

                      LOL!

                      What is this Horus?

                      I thought you created a thread a while back screaming for Pacquiao to win in congress and retire.

                      Now suddenly you wanted this fight to happen amidst all PPV ****e which people don't even care and just wanted the fight to happen and here you are again whining about another man's earnings!
