Lets set the record straight about Mayweather/Pacquiao

[ronniejunior]

i understand what you're trying to say but no, the guy is right. boxing is a business and money is the key component on whether or not a fight is being made. I would have agreed with you if the TS was talking about how floyd spends his money or what not, but he's talking about something totally different and relevant.

Basically...you know what though? i think they understand this, its just what
a hater does spin the truth to make their idol look good and the other look bad instead of looking at the situation from a level unbiased head....

now what's really woman like is the childish statements that are made after
a logical and factual thread like this gets posted....people don't want to hear the truth and would rather engage in meaningless finger pointing when their guy gets got...

anybody who is a "REAL" boxing fan and purist understands that boxing is a
business and that mayweather is the highest paid boxer right now...point blank period...

u can't compare 65 Mill to 6 Mill and expect a 50/50 fight...

despite numerous articles and videos which expose the truth about pacquiao and his promoter rather than accept the truth his fans and cronies will turn the other cheek and praise him still....

there's other fighters out their for pacquaio to face other than margarito
that is an inside fight with a known cheater who has shown no remorse

that says more about pacquiao than it does marg because he boldly stated that marg knew his gloves were loaded yet he still chooses to fight him....well bob arum called the shots on that as he still does....

top rank is shady and thats why floyd ain't in a rush to fight unless they do it the honest and clean way like a real P4P champion does......

that's because i didnt even show you the rest of that week

Again that is not 20k a month

my point is that you're a grown man obsessing about other men's money


you know what we call those?


they're called women


stick a tampon in your ear and log off

This is absolutely the silliest reason for us not discussing a valid point in the negotiations. No, what this really is, is an excuse for people not to talk about the money issue. FMJ has showed that he DESERVES at least more than 50% and yet he conceded it in the first negotiations, to get the fight done. So once u get past who is the one that brings most of the money to the table, what other argument can be made? Hey, I know...."a man that worries about another man's money is called a woman"! Umm, how old are u again? 7??

The fact is, the money split is a very valid argument to be made. If Pac won't accept less than 50%, then the argument can be made for HIM ducking. FMJ is proven to bring in more money...PERIOD! So, there is no valid reason why Pac deserves 50% of the purse. FOTD, P4P, 7 divisions...none of that means anything compared to the bottom line. WHO BRINGS IN THE MOST MONEY(and it ain't even close). If Pac deserved the same kind of money, he would be making the same kinds of purses that FMJ is. He is not!

By the way, you are talking trash about him counting the money in another man's pocket? So then, what do u call a man, who's so concerned with the man counting the money in the other man's pocket? Can only imagine, that it MUST be a step down from where he's at.

out of gas?


really?


if this was a boxing match, people would be suing the commission that allowed this mismatch


but seeing as how talkin about other men's money has you all giddy (as evidenced when Shadey showed you check stubs), carry on...hopefully you'll blow your load, fall asleep and quit posting for the day

Of course Pacquiao deserves 50/50, that is the least he should get.

Adding simple numbers up, is not a difficult task...correct?

Pacquiao is arguably the biggest star of boxing right now. I know Floyd fans won't like to hear that or believe it.

Tell me what good is it being "arguably" the biggest star in boxing, when more people are paying for the next guys fights?

But then people talk about boxing these days it's mostly Pacquiao is name that comes up first.

So, what is more important when it comes to purse split? Your name coming up first, when boxing is discusses or how many people buy your fights and how much gate reciepts are?

Honestly people, this is not a difficult discussion. If you can't admit that Floyd deserves the larger split, then you are either:

1. TOTALLY biased
2. Don't know the slightest bit about business negotiation
3. Follow Pac blindly
4. Hate FMJ
5. All of the above

Take ur pick!!
