New Article Posted On Floyd Mayweather's Website: "The Way It Went"

[Audie78]

pfft, well .. from a man that just came out of retirement fought 2 men and says he wants more then 50 percent while pac has been knocking people out... come on. either way I do agree to a 50 / 50. Floyd says he's the greatest.. well prove it.

[Pacquiao'd]

Exactly what I was wondering. Why does Floyd get the bigger cut AND get to dictate terms? 14 days is a major concession by Pacquiao. Floyd seems like he'll always do just enough to kill this fight.

b/c pac turned it down and floyd took it off the table. thats why

*****s dont defend this ***. he is a coward For God's sake.

[KILLA RIGHT]

*****s dont defend this ***. He is a coward for god's sake.

explain...so they turned down the 50 50 and 14 day before.thats arums fault...mayweather warned him things would change, now they accept a old deal? Mayweather is a bigger ppv draw and mosley was willing to take the test.how can people blame mayweather?

After Mayweather-Mosley did twice as much as Pacquiao-Clottey and all the past #s, Mayweather would have been pretty generous just giving Pacquiao 50/50 split.

Neogtiation asks for discussion and concessions to take place. What changed since last negotiations was in favor of Mayweather. If I were an advisor or manager trying to negotiate the best deal for my client, I would have taken the last deal off the table too. And either Arum and Pacquiao give up OST testing up until the day of the fight and a couple points on the split or give up a 60-40/55-45 split. I'd be well in range for asking for those types of demands too.

Sorry, but in this circumstance, I don't think either can claim to be the bigger draw.

Sure, Mayweather may sell more against other Welterweights...because he has more to lose. The casual fans tune in to see if the 'arrogant smacktalker' will lose his 0.

But Pacquiao vs Mayweather is an EVENT. It's less about the individual fighters when they are fighting each other. It's the clash of the titans. Fights like this only come every few decades, when the absolute P4P kings are in the same division, at the same time.


Anyways, I'm tired of arguing with *****s and *******s. I don't understand how either side can stand up for their guy NO MATTER WHAT. Do you not want to see this fight happen? There is literally no other interesting fights out there for them. They are the BEST, no one is even close to their league right now.

How people can still defend them and make excuses is beyond me.

Are you a boxing fan, or are you just a Mayweather or Pacquiao fan?

It's hilarious to see how people are even questioning Mayweathers demand for a bigger split. Put yourself in his shoes. Mayweather promotes the **** out of his fights, goes on primetime TV shows, WWE, countless amounts of work put it to promote himself and BOXING. As a boxing fan why are you even upset that he's getting more fans to tune in? Maybe those new fans will turn into die-hard fans like ourselves.

He completely deserves a bigger split and was generous enough to take it down to 50/50 the last fight and was declined because of a 3 day difference on a fckin blood test.
